Didn’t see that coming!

Good formation, every player knew his job and the attacking side was a thing to behold.

Well done Mr Danks

Fabulous stuff. 4-2-3-1 is what we’ve been crying out for. A proper structure that the players believed in. Brilliant - special mention to Dendonker who has been ludicrously written off by some, did a great job.

Bloody brilliant. Every single player who started the game did superbly. It's amazing what a team can do when it has a functioning midfield. For the first time in ages, everyone looked like they knew what their job was.

I'd be interested to see the stats, as it looked to me like they clocked up a few more kilometres than they did under Gerrard.

Only game this season that has not been live on the TV here
Listened to the commentary on AVTV , Ian Taylor "over the moon"
the background  noise from the ground was awesome
Onwards and upwards

It occurs to me that the fabled "new manager bounce" is no such thing, but is in fact a "got rid of the last useless twat bounce".

I wondered the same, Gerrard’s tactic were errr passive which could skew it but regardless ‘busting a gut’ is still a good barometer.

Played like we'd been let out of prison, brilliant stuff.

Best match I've seen Luiz have in a long, long time, and he was far from the only excellent performer today.

Oh joy, deep joy.  Footballers that played football.  Thank you Mr Danks and you too Mr McPhee, you did yourselves credit today.  Well done all you players, keep it up, please.

Superb. Echoes of Tonys Morley and Daley with Bailey’s run for no 4. Can’t fault anyone.

Dougie was outstanding.

He certainly didn't, he looked visibly thrilled.

Brilliant. More controlled, composed and simple. Shackles off.

They can all take a bow.
