Just back at the car. Great day. We got what we deserved. Barton - good distribution. Isla - composed, good reading of the game. Fer - strong, time on the ball. Hoilett - looked decisive and sharp. Jane's great grandson - took his chance. I laughed when Taarabt shouted at Phillips for not putting him in and taking the ball to the corner on 93 minutes. He shuffled briskly off at the end. Hope he stays.
Wow what a difference win makes. This has given us long suffering a lift, plus the team and coaching staff. A QPR win is the best natural high.
I'm not going to get carried away with the thought of winning at Manure. They have splashed £200mil plus and knowing our luck will come good for them. Lets just enjoy the moment.
This is it, we win one and it shuts the moaners up, but in two weeks if we lose at old trafford the Harry Haters will just start again. But you can see the team is coming together nicely. Harry said after the game the Diarra has signed. I think he needs to earn his place first, but away from home I think with Diarra backing up the defence, it will free up Barton to be more fluid, cause today his distribution and the way he controlled the midfield was superb. Isla looks like he's going to be great. Hoilett must have OD'd on shredded wheat and confidence cause today was the kind of performance we've been waiting for from him. Positives all around, if the team can get a few more wins in the bag and help win over the Rednapp haters, with complete unity amongst fans and the team, we can step on and secure ourselves for a long time to come.
That's the sort of performance that's needed. More of the same please. I'm still baffled where the spurs performance came from.
Back home. Forgot to mention Mutch. Looked composed. Ghosted past players a few times. Last man who did that was our 'poor man's Vierra' Samba Diakite.

Mmm.......great? I think we need to keep our feet on the ground. It was much Iimproved, with fantastic effort from everyone involved. However, as good as that midfield was going forward it was out played for long periods. Such an attacking line up will be badly exposed by better teams. Still a great result though. Fer looks very good.
Great to have a first win and just about deserved overall but great performance - no way. The back line continues to look shakey when pressurised (Rio not impressive today IMO), Charlie is off the pace of the PL and it can't be right for a home team to have so little possession. On the plus side Isla looked good and JB was excellent box to box. Work in progress.
It's early Sunday morning and having just woken up, I rush to turned on my computer. We have won! The feeling of relief, jubilation and joy continue to overtake each other in order to be the leader of the pack. What a great day it is. Go team.
Many thanks, sku ............. ditto to you and the gang over there any everywhere! This win is going to really settle not only us fans down but the team as well.
