Brilliant comeback victory. Let's be honest we were the better side who created more chances and could have scored even more really, as their goal led a charmed life at times. They created bugger all other than the goal. I barely remember Sa having to make any save.

The difference in mentality of this side compared to GON is night and day. Even with Cunha unavailable for the past 4 games we've picked up 10 points. Long live Vitor!

MOTM Andre. Oozes class that lad. Could easily have been Larsen or Gomes though.

Deserved to win and if that's Sarabia's last meaningful contribution for us, a valuable one.

The job was basically done in midweek if not before and the fretting was ridiculous, but nice to win all the same.

As mentioned on the matchday thread, the laws of the game surrounding backpass incidents are ludicrous. Desperately need changing, it might only happen a handful of times a season but that is a situation that makes no sense.
 
Get the fuck in just a case of how high we can finish now
Beat Spurs next week and we could go above them if they fail to beat Saints tomorrow... and being Spurs, you wouldn't put it past them to lose that one!
 
Very good professional performance away from home against a team who tried to use the momentum of the crowd/situation to close the gap in quality. A lot of missed chances again which we really do need to work on and the defending for their goal is a joke but we're a good side now and nobody will want to face us in this form.
 
Absolute world apart from where we were under Gaz. Perfect example - the squad, with no manager on the field dictating stuff, push Sarabia to the front of the crowd and get him to do the fist pumps to the away end. Proper squad now & not a bunch of unhappy individuals.

Some comeback. In reality, we never should have been behind - but you’ve still got to go out there & turn it around. Vítor has done a cracking job, and the players are buying into it.

Dare I say it, even with Cunha inevitably leaving & a lot of work to be done in the window, I’m actually excited to see where the manager can take us next season.
 
As I've said to other people's annoyance previously, I don't buy into the 'better side' narrative if you don't put the ball in the net. Today we should have hammered them, but eventually got over the line which is all that matters. Not sure we've had many players with as high a variance in performances as Sarabia
 
Only watched the last 15 mins so saw JSL goal. Really good phase of football, sarabia oozing class with the ball in but before that, his first touch to beat a man before the ball gets recycled. Shame we’ve only seen pieces of skill like that from him so infrequently.

Hopefully this doesn’t lead to us being ‘on the beach’. Doubt this manager would stand for it, albeit would’ve thought the same about JL. We do seem to have more togetherness about us now though maybe? Especially in cunha’s abscence.
