Brilliant stuff - excellent from everyone. Great team performance and even better when you see the likes of Yiadom and Meite coming off the bench

Shame about the goal conceded but small issue in another top class display. We should have scored another 2 or 3 as well

One of the most complete performances I can remember in quite a few years.

Back 4 outstanding second half. McIntyre and Morro didn’t put a foot wrong, Richards superb and Holmes 100% effort and defended very well after the first 10

The officials have helped too.


Eh? How?

We’ve hardly been given the West Germany treatment. (Play absolutely dirty and then dive like cnuts and get the decisions. Dirty fcuking cnuts)


Not massively in our favour, some soft challenges on Richards were given as fouls, and a foul on brooks in a dangerous position was given our way.

Just an observation and we deserve it after a series of shit refs.

Good win. 4 or 6 points out of Stoke and Brentford and we can dream big.

Countless fouls by Bournemouth could have been given as yellow cards. There was a foul by Laurent that went our way but otherwise he did us no favours

I don't see how you can play better than that. The last 40 minutes of the first half is something to treasure and remember forever. The second half was game management at its best.

The championship is the biggest league in the world without VAR, so, who knows, that might be the best football in the world at the moment.

I think the intensity was the big difference today
Everybody up for it and closing them down much more than in recent games
Let’s hope that can be continued (although I reckon it will only happen against a big side)

Well that was fun.

Shame we let that late one in as we slip back below Watford but can go back above them if they lose to QPR.

He had a terrible game that day but no one should have written him off

He’s been our best player since he came back in

Agreed, another day another ref and Lewis Cook is off in the first half.

Maybe so, personally thought it was an amazing offensive display the first half, and the second was an amazing defensive display!! Bournemouth were always going to come at us and i thought we coped admirably.

Everyone was amazing tonight, however, Ejaria, McIntyre and Laurent were exceptional!!!! :D :D
