We're not being pressed because we're winning the ball back quickly and attacking quickly, so we've pinned them back. We've not seen the usual shitness from Maguire or Lindelhoof either because Palace have hardly seen the ball. Good stuff so far.
If you stop the ball getting close to your defence, they don't get shown up to be shit.
We dropped off towards the end so hopefully Rangnick will push them back into this for the second half

Yeah they couldn't keep the intensity up, which is fair enough. But it looked like they enjoyed themselves in the first half, so hopefully they're going to buy in to Rangnick's football. I think they will. Some of these players went public under Jose saying they want to play exciting attacking football. Well now they've got their wish.

A reminder that Rangnick was going to get the England job until the FA decided to go with Allardyce instead
It came down to those two, and they chose big Sam
I would investigate this decision for corruption. We know big Sam likes a brown envelope, I bet some of the FA members do to. I reckon a few of them got a tidy sum when Big Sam got the job.
