I just want him to get more shots. I'm screaming at him just to get a shot in, get a shot in! Even today, I think he only really got that one that he thankfully buried. He was recruited with big money with expectations to score a fair few. He needs to be a bit more selfish, a bit more determined to be in the right place at the right time, and more willing to be moaned at when he misses. Ayew has done very well playing off the left. Infinitely better than wherever Vieira played him. But the Inside Left position might be where Édouard flourishes. Mitchell, Eze and Édouard may be the three who benefit most from new management.

A sublime finish with his left-foot.He does appear two-footed, taking a penalty with his right-foot but will shoot and cross with his left-foot.

I will give Roy credit for a tactical change which has helped in the last two games.

They're mates and seem to understand each other's game. I'm not sure what R&R said at half-time but it worked brilliantly as the first 45 Olise was barely in the game; second half he bossed it. This is not a criticism (it would be hard to criticise after that second half!) but does anyone else find it odd that Lokonga hasn't even gotten on the pitch since Roy took over? Given he arrived after a chat with PV I wonder if maybe he is not up for it any more. Despite results he was looking like the one positive at the end of Vieira's reign and yet he didn't even come on as a sub yesterday.

Lokonga won't be here next season, so where's the need to give him game time when we are doing what's necessary without him?

I was hiding before the sofa for most of the first half, fully expecting us to get annihilated. Second half, well, I just didn't see that coming! Commentators earlier in the season said that Palace had "an array of attacking talent". Today, that attacking talent really showed themselves... Your telly is behind the sofa then. Is that a Feng Shui thing?

Not sure we were as bad as most have said in that first half. We had 2 headers that should have been buried and another which came off the post and scored a goal which VAR took 2 weeks to decide that it was a goal. Stevie Wonder and his golden retriever could have told you that was a perfectly good goal after 10 seconds! Second half was totally one way traffic and should have had a couple more, gave me a lovely warm glow inside taking Leeds to the cleaners!

It's not a criticism, just an observation. Is Luka really a better option off the bench? He probably won't be here next season either. I really like the look of Lokonga and had hoped there might be a permanent deal to be made in the summer.

Maybe Lanzo was right about his criticism of PV . The wise ol sage . Eze for the Ballon d'Or next.
