I was impressed at how fit we were, got stronger as we got nearer the end, either that or we became that relentless in the press we demoralised them. Still think the tackle before the third goal was as good a pinpoint though ball.
2 points gained on Derby & Brentford, 3 on Swansea & Bristol City. All we need now is Boro to slip up tomorrow night against Bolton, though a draw would do.
The most pleasing thing for me is Tyler and Harrison who people were saying aren't good enough,showed they are.
Wonder what we’ll be like when we learn to pass the ball more accuratley, because sometimes being spoiled as we are, I get frustrated when Bielsaball breaks down. Must be like Man City, Spurs and Barcelona. Not been this happy with my club since the -15 season
Check out his comments on Bielsa from his time at Marseille, brilliant. Told him in the dressing room in front of his team-mates that he would be one of the best left-backs in the world. He says, "I just smiled, but he meant it". Class act.
Quick thoughts before bed. Genuinely pinching myself waiting for it all to unfold but why should it? BPF, growing every game 8 Ayling, shaky first ten minutes then just got better and better 8 Coops, rock, underrated and the goal gives him 9 Jansson- possibly pisses team mates off with his moaning but undeniable quality, easy 8 Douglas, like an old Triumph Stag, undeniably classy but looks like he’s not playing at full speed - why oh why did he not take the first few corners from our right? As soon as he did we scored. Another easy 8 Phillips, the most underrated footballer this board has ever seen. Just hope his best Premier League days are with us. 9.5. Klich, nearly very good, possibly struggling with international fatigue 7.5 Alioski, as above but not as good 7 Saiz, interesting, in many ways MOTM but, watch the replays. It’s not that he doesn’t release the ball but, genuinely, he only releases it to his right. Wonderful little player but a touch more variety and he’d be unplayable 9 Harrison - Wakey said you were poor before Saturday 9, don’t take him seriously Roberts - Wakey said you were poor after Saturday 9, don’t take him seriously Subs, who cares? We had won by then but had forgotten how classy Forshaw is. Manager, 11, IBWT. Roll on Saturday, loving this
