Can't stop thinking about the limbs in the away end on Sunday. What a day out that was, still can't get my head around it.

Apologies if I missed this, but does anyone know how often in PL history has a team come from a goal behind to win a game with 10 men? And even more so, a first half red-card?

I remember Chelsea doing it when the peaked under Mourinho - I think against West Ham. 1-0 down with 10 men and won something daft like 4-1.

Then there was a crazy FA Cup game with Spurs and Man City. At half time Spurs were 3-0 up and Joey Barton had been sent off, but City (pre takeover) came back to win 4-3. Very Spursy!

Don’t know how many times it’s been done.

Last time Liverpool did it was March 2016 at Selhurst Park. Jurgen’s first season.

Palace scored first on 48’, Milner sent off 61’, Bobby at 72’ and that injury time pen at 96’ by Benteke.

Also, when was the last time a team went down to ten in consecutive games and won both?
