    You don't care for him then? Fair enough. Just relying on checking this and BBC Sports app to keep up.

    Well played Saints, great result.

    Picking a sensible line-up and not pinning ourselves to the sidelines certainly helped.

    It was an excellent change for me. Fraser really helped Manning defensively. Fair play to Martin, I thought he managed the 2nd half very well.

    Have to say well done RM, that was a good reaction albeit overdue.

    Right starters, right subs, looks to have eased off the forced short passing looks like there was more trust in the players on the pitch to make the decisions.

    Thought that 2nd half was very gritty, very determined. Didn't panic after conceding and defended very well. Martin made the right changes at the right times. Good day all round. THB was an absolute rock at the back.

    So used to having a good moan. Now I'm feeling disappointed.

    Great and surprising result. I predicted 4 goals in the game but not shared out like that.

    Credit to Martin for obviously switching things up tactically. Seems like they really pout some good work in on the training pitch. Sulemana showing why we paid £25 million for him too!

    Sulemana MOTM first half, THB second half. They can share my MOTM.

    Great result that nobody expected. Still see nothing Aribo brings to the team. Any of the squad could have come on and run around like a headless chicken, having minimal effect on the game. Thought the back 4 looked more organised with Janny in it. Watched it, thanks to Ellandback

    Beating Leeds 3-1 at home is a good omen. :)
