Three points. That is what we needed. Yes we're shite but three points is all we could ask for. Let's go and get three more on Saturday.

The more I see of this team, the more I think what a load of shit we've bought in the summer with 1 exception.

Another shout for Heaton, him and Jack standing up for the club.

Trezeguet and El Ghazi... Christ. You can afford one of those (player who has their moments but regularly does absolutely nothing) but not two.

Shockingly poor but we got 3 points . Haven't got a clue where any more will come from.

The 3 points that may well have saved Dean Smith's job.  Well done lads.  I will take winning ugly over plucky losers all day long.

We have by some distance the worst front three in the division

Happy we won and got the 3 points but we all know it's a result that just papers over the huge cracks.

If it wasn't for Tom Heaton's brilliance since August we would be rock bottom of the table.

Five wins at the turn of the year.

That's despite being decent but far from convincing in many games and pissing away a multitude of winning positions.

Hoped for four wins by early December and six by the end of the year/ early Jan. 

So not a million miles off course but Watford and Soton's recent run of form is a concern.

A massive 3 points that could keep us up.
Still dreadful starting formation and player selection from Dean. 
Saved by Jack and Heaton.
Smith still OUT.

fuck me we aint good but we have Jack

thought Hause was great , Jack was king , Luis gets credit to keep us in the game with the clearance , Heaton is class.   

Targett 14 million ?  waste of money ..Trez fecking useless and I thought he was in that nations cup , El Ghazi championship player, Wesley worked hard , dont mean he is good.. Elmo another championship player .

conor will always get you a goal when you are shit.

3 pts , clean sheet ( god knows how)   and merry christmas :)

Kodjia must have pissed in smiths tea or something. There has to be a reason behind why he is given little or no opportunity to get on the pitch.

Grealish!!!,as good a player as we've ever had, Hause excellent, Hourihane must start the next game, Taylor for Targett also. Big thumbs up for the ball boy at the Witton End.

Agree Jon.  We have bought a load of truly duff players.
