Should mention that Leganes won another 1-0 today, as they grind their way to mid-table obscurity on the back of a solid defense, strength in the air, and basically zero possession. It's nice that Pellegrino has been able to return to his element; he was just extraordinarily miscast as an offensive-minded manager.

Very skilful goal...not easy to shoot and allow for the ricochet off the keeper.
Fan-****ing-tastic, to hold on for that long with ten men will do wonders for confidence.
Fecking told you lot we'd get something up there today

Because there is contact doesn't make it not a dive.
Didn't look like any contact from the replays I saw. But whatever, I really couldn't care less about diving in general anyway

Right. Come on Chelsea, give Newcastle a pummeling! (like you couldn't do against us!)
We'll finish 12th, calling it now (above the Mini-Skates and Brighton to be South Coast champions..
).

Absolute credit to Hasenhüttl, no way we would have won that game under Hughes or Pellegrino.
He’s got us organised, battling and confident in just a few weeks.

Rode out the hardest part of our schedule, and now we have the chance to make a decisive push. Everton (H), Palace (H), Burnley (A), Cardiff (H)...two or three wins and we will be fairly well positioned for the home stretch.
Let's hope Shane settles this debate himself...

So, so proud. the main difference that Ralph has brought is defensive organisation and a winning mentality, long may it continue.
Not picking out any player as they were all superb (Valery excepted although he had a good first half).

I thought we'd get something up there, but with this fella in charge it gives you so much more belief in the team. The difference is incredible.
Oliver is the best of the bunch, was even looking for an excuse to disallow their goal, maybe thought the lino had bottled a decison, will see on replay no doubt.
We are always better after a full week on the training pitch with Ralph... 
If Lemina can do that, then it'll be interesting how Ralph gets all three of them (including PEH) in. I'm not sure Armstrong can be left out - or even pushed out wide. Reverting to a back four could be dangerous.
Still, if that becomes our biggest issue going forward, then I'll be more than happy.
