Nearly popped a blood vessel when Eccles shot instead of taking it to the corner.

Dovin has been superb. He's the big difference.

Starting to think about beating Sheffield United in the play-off final!
Long way to go but we look so much more cohesive, Watford created nothing really.
Dovin makes a huge difference, excellent again while also giving confidence to those in front of him.
The players are enjoying it, the fans are enjoying it so let's see where it takes us. Proud, well done lads.

Second half saved by a Torp special but can’t complain. Top half at last. Looking up now aren’t we? Get the chequebook our Douggie

Super win. Lost a bit of control seconds half. Generally though, there has been a real shift in positive aggression over the last 4 games. Everyone now is up for it. Players, such as Simms looking happier.
Torp and Rudoni were excellent and that save from the deflected shot from Dovin was unreal.

Torp unreal

We are doing the simple things right, playing well and are certainly hard to beat. Add Wright and EMC to this team and it gets exciting.

He's clearly miles ahead of the others. I don't know why he was ever dropped. Hopefully a great future here.

I think it was a CWR problem today. That said, agree that the ifollow service seems to be getting worse. The club's website and app don't help, they're so clunky.

I assumed it was Torp looking for his hatty when I saw it was Eccles I was fuming. At least play Bassette in.

Problem is we arguably look better since the change in formation. EMC doesn’t fit in a 3-5-2/5-3-2

Those 3 all build like brick shithouses, definitely adds a bit of steel. Allen is having a proper renaissance, keeps us ticking so well in the middle. Torp looks to be taking notes from Lampard. So many reasons to be optimistic

Love how vocal Dovin has become. You can see him guiding the defense, which he didn't do when he first came in. He really has all the attributes to be a top level keeper.

Yeah -I’d be fuming if it was Torp but understand it… no reason for Eccles to do that

Great result. Hitting some proper form now. Suddenly everything is looking at lot better.

The midfield is a revelation, not that this surprises me particularly.

I'll enjoy my non-alcoholic cerveza this evening!

Definitely. Although it was forced on us to a point, credit to Lampard, we undoubtedly have had our better performances with a back 3.

If this team had a hard nut old head at the back and a quality box to box midfielder we'd actually be a force

I still think 433/4231 will be our formation long term.

It’s all a bit no nonsense at times but it’s working. First half was really good, shame we couldn’t keep it up second half.

About as embarrassing as being a massive after timer. Point scoring from anyone is nauseating.
