Genuinely thought the rule was if it ends in a goal intent doesn't matter? The touch off the arm sets the ball up for the volley.

Anyway great win. Old Spurs may have messed that up. Not Ange's Spurs.

Love these post match images of the team going around hugging each other on the pitch et cetera. This is a happy squad.

Sky commentary team can hear the VAR conversation and apparently the best that VAR could come up with was it "may have" hit Ayew's arm so they couldn't overturn it.

I thought I could clearly see the balls movement change after he chested it but it's one of those subjective decisions that even VAR won't be able to get rid off.

Look at the difference in this squad. Ange has done an unreal job so far.

Can't rule it our can you?

Another big hurdle put in front of us and we found a way again to win.

Neville can poo-poo our title dreams all he likes but we deserve to be top and we aren't a side that is going away anytime soon.

Obvious hand ball , not sure what they were missing. Clearly rolls onto the forearm and directs the ball for him. Should be another clean sheet but hell at least we won.

Yeah I’m confused. These are always ruled out, they’re also usually given as standard in the middle of the pitch. It’s almost like they thought it was a decent goal so let it stand. Nonsense decision

Right. We've had a goal scored against us which shouldn't have stood. All square now. Pool can STFU.

That last 10 mins felt like 2 hours. Worst performance of the season, 2 games in 4 days and the only goal we conceded was a blatant handball. Can’t grumble

Mickey was superb, by far the best player on the pitch

Worst performance first half.

The subs made a huge impact and we were very comfortable, could really have had another couple of goals. Their goal should never have stood and made it more uneasy but I never felt like we were conceding all game.

We've got our Tottenham back!

Coasting to a win so we make a defensive error to make for an unnecessarily nervy last 5 minutes.

Got to give Palace a few minutes break from booing to be fair.

If Chelsea win tomorrow it'll be three wins and one draw for them meaning Poch will probably win it.

I can’t believe that VAR got yet another decision so wrong yet again, I saw it once and the ball has rolled down Ayew’s arm after he’s controlled it in his chest.
How can these ‘trained officials’ be so incompetent?

Not going to worry about the goal.

I watched as many replays as the VAR official - and there just was not a definitive view of the ball touching his arm. He was pulling it away as the ball was dropping, so it was impossible to see any contact. Just one of those things.

Got the result but thought we were pretty poor overall. Just felt a bit slow overall.

That said, I thought the centre backs and Maddison were the difference.

In all honesty we should of got the third which would of buried it.

We had numerous chances to finish it.

But great win.
