I thought the major difference today, apart from the finishing, was the speed we moved the ball.
It was so much quicker, allowing us to move it forward easier too.

Bang on correct. At times our passing has been ponderous as though they are playing chess rather than football!

We've waited a long time to see that quality of play.

However, please can we MANAGE EXPECTATIONS? We will not be playing like that every week!!
 
Such a shame that the crowd was so small today

I feared the worst when I saw the line up, but Warburton got it spot on

For me the killer was the speed and accuracy of movement with and without the ball. Some of our football today was just sublime

Has BOS's 100m sprint time ever been disclosed? It must be pretty rapid!
 
Just watched the highlights and realised that it was Wells that played the lob to put BOS in for the second goal. Add that to his two headed goals and a highly confident finish for his third makes him a worthy MOM I reckon.

I've wondered about BOS and the 100m. Quicker than me that's for sure!

Highly confident finish indeed.... I’d have been more inclined to side foot along the ground to make certain it wasn’t blasted over the bar :)

how many matchballs would he have now?
 
Well I honestly thought we could seriously drub someone withe the way we have been attempting to play. Cardiff were ****e and we were excellent. Apart from the 3 amigos of Eze, Chair and BOS along with Well scoring a hat trick, I thought it was Ball who enables us to play with the freedom and attack like we did. He is a very good and underrated player. Wins the ball and keeps it very simple. That was a joy to watch and long over due. Having watched WBA v Leeds later, I wouldnt swap any of the aforementioned trio for any their attackers! Class
 
Dean Ashton very complimentary about our performance on the Quest EFL programme

He and presenter Colin Murray calling it the best attacking performance they've seen in the Championship this season

Great to hear them, eh? So nice to hear that instead of the usual that we gifted the team their first away win in 74 yrs blah blah. Keep it up lads!

At start of the season everyone would have taken a mid table finish. Unfortunately at times we have looked absolutely awesome which makes all genuine fans look at the table think there is no reason why we cant finish it top 6. Then we go on another joke run and alarm bells start ringing. However was at Barnsley and game could have gone either way, Reading away I watched and thought we should have won, Hull and Charlton both games on here seemed like we should have got more, I think today was the turning point and we will be upwardly mobile! Keep the faith! Just need a goalie and a centre back in transfer window!
 
It’s just as well we was 6-0 up when they scored as I thought lumley should’ve kept that out & nine times out of ten that has cost us this season.

Joe had switched off (as he often does). Have a look at his feet! Both were planted in the grass, one step to his left and it would have been an easy save.
