Dean Smith - Confirmed

[SoccerHQ]

Great stuff from the manager tonight.

Criticised him on Sunday so only fair to see he got it spot on tonight. Luiz on at right time and loved the way he trusted the young kids to see out the game.

Nice one Deano.
Great result.
There's bound to be a negative angle somewhere though right?

If Leeds win on Sunday Smith should be sacked.

Dean showed some minerals tonight by picking that team and making those subs.  He got the subs bit spot on.  Credit where it is due.  Brilliant tonight Deano.

Huge mistake in putting Nakamba back in the team. He can't pass or control a football properly. Poor decision.

Was this an attempt at irony?

Well that aged well didn't it . Much better performance (still don't rate Nakamba though).

Don’t worry, I doubt he rates you either.

He got it spot on today. Brave substitutions and hopefully he enjoyed Carney and Jaden's cameos as much as I did.

[Baldy]

Great to see Deano more animated on the touchline, shouting at players and the officials, experimenting with the line up and giving the youngsters a debut.

Well done Deano, you won us that game. There is more than one way to peel a Spud.

Liverpool, Leicester, Everton, Arsenal, Tottenham, Leeds, West Ham. All teams above us that we've beaten this season.

It's only the top 3 that we haven't managed to beat and there's a chance that could be just the top 2 by Sunday evening.

It shows what could have been and how much better we can be. We've not had results like that against the teams above us for so long!

good win, we are a different team with Grealish in the side
if he hadn't been out for 11 games i think we would be in the European spots
next season we have to find a way of not being so super reliant on him

[Sexual Ealing]

Didn't see the game. Delighted for DS that we won. Just caught up with the earlier posts on this thread and started to think that I'd missed a meeting and that we had somehow signed up to be in a two team league with Leeds. I was astonished to find out that it was Spurs that we were playing!

Except West Ham

Was pleased with the change where Jack came off for Douggie.

They’d just brought on Bale and it allowed us to tighten things up with SJM and Marv. Even gave Douggie a chance to do stuff higher up the pitch for a change.

Guess we won’t hear from Wilma tonight?

he puts his foot in which we don’t do enough .  his distribution still needs to improve

Argh! Of course.

[Lastfootstamper]

Beat Chelsea and we finish with only one point fewer than O'Leary got us to sixth with.
