Tedious watch, two good bits of finishing from Malen, got the job done. Three points.

Played really nicely for 3/4s of the game, and should have been out of sight. Felt the subs didn’t really work today and it’s a problem that when Ollie goes off no one can hold the ball up.

But another win, a couple of lovely goals. Torres and Bouba impressive again, obviously Malen did great. Feel like Rogers is definitely finding his way back, some lovely turns and an assist.

This may be the script for the season

A win was vital, and we got it. Just 3 points behind Palace after their brilliant start to the season. A win against Spurs would be nice.

Even on points with Newcastle and Brighton despite the narrative around the respective clubs. Not bad considering our shit start.

Not as close as 2-1 looked. Their keeper had a good game.

Second half was quite good. Cheer up, Steve!

Sorry Jane, I was hoping that we'd get rid of the negative goal difference and take them to the cleaners.  I was frustrated with the lack of energy but a win is a win.

Far from tedious but a bit nervy at the end.

Unai won the tactical battle by changing formation but over thought things when he took McGinn and Watkins off.

Bogarde excellent.

We look far more clinical but still unbalanced

Hard to decide what is the bigger relief, the three points or not having to listen to Alan Smith drone on anymore.

I'm surprised at that. We created the most we have in any match this season and Dubrankva kept them in it for long periods. I think their goal was the second chance they had.



Disappointed to concede the goal. Watkins seemed to be clearing a lot in the first half so not sure if him not being on meant we defensively didn't have a decent player to meet the ball earlier.

Hope Buendia is okay, incompetent referee.

He was thoroughly abysmal.

We've got a winning momentum going into the international break.  I didn't think that would be the case a few weeks back.
