"I think Palace deserve congratulations, because a match like this is only possible with two teams. I would say it was with three teams because the referee wanted to keep the intensity of the game going. "It was a fantastic match. It was a dificult match for me because my team made so many mistakes. We played very good quality football in the second half but we made so many defensive mistakes. I don't like my teams to lose their organisation like we did, but it was an amazing match and a very important win for us."
"After the second goal it was very difficult for us to come back, we showed character and did exactly what the manager wanted us to do. He said at half-time we had to do more. I’m happy I’ve scored my first goal for Manchester United, I know it’s not my job but I’m glad it got us the three points."
That thrilling win for United leaps the Reds above Liverpool and back into second position in the league. Don't forget, we host Liverpool this Saturday at Old Trafford!

We have to highlight De Gea's amazing save to deny Benteke in the second half, when the score was still 2-2, because without that we might not have come back. I actually spoke to the manager a few weeks ago and he was quite blunt about it, saying David is "paid" to make saves like that, but there is no denying it was a special save tonight.
"They played ever so well. You feel for them. When you have a two goal lead, you expect to see out the game, but against United, you can never rule them out."
"We were shaking our heads at half time saying, how are we going to lose this game? Everything changed in that second half. Marcus Rashford came on and was so positive. The substitutes paid off."
"You look at the performance in the second half, that is what we expect from Manchester United. It was chalk and cheese from the first half performance. You just wish you could get a lot more of that in other games."

The final whistle has gone at Selhurst Park and what an unbelievable comeback from United. The Reds were two goals down after 55 minutes, but goals from Chris Smalling, Romelu Lukaku and a late stunner from Nemanja Matic ensure that the Reds steal all three points. Astonishing!
