Just a jammy little win.

I thought the fight was there. I thought some good performances, onana, Maguire, garnacho, mount when he came on, martial when he came on, awb.

We just can't create anything for hojlund. We don't have that player outside of Bruno that can make the pass. Eriksen can but never seems to be in position. Frustrating

Not really deserved and not a great performance.

Antony has gotta be dropped at this point. I’m not keen on Pellistri but he offers more than Antony.

Maguire and McTominay are our best players, I don’t understand it.

Dreadful again, luckily Fulham were even worse.

Does have that feel that we're in the same "just waiting for the manager to be sacked" phase that we were in under Ole, Mou, and LVG.

Garnacho looked consistent, eager and bright towards the end.
Pellistri was tenacious trying to win that ball back
Bruno overided his natural instincts to be so patient for that goal.

We're flawed but I think we will get better.

3 points. Hope our football improves. It was terrible to watch.

You can tell how a game went when the most entertaining part was that bottle of ketchup on display.

Onana, Maguire, Garnacho and AWB good today.

Very boring. Nothing else to say.

Temporary relief and elation, but hard to feel any better about that than Copenhagen or Sheffield. We’re still dreadful.

Massive win! It wasn’t a great performance today, little quality going forwards with Hojlund and Antony really struggling but Bruno came up with the winner!

Having said that, the defence was great and Maguire was great again.

It was ugly but we got all 3 points. This was not a turning point match by Itself but if we can string 3 wins together and get some players back from injury maybe we can salvage something from this season.

Bruno, Mount, McTom, Eriksen - no actual midfielder among them. How could we genuinely approach a game with no midfield?

We didn't even attempt to play through midfield, it's like we've given that up completely.

Hard to find the right words. 3 points i guess.

It will be a tight contest on who is the worst player. But 1 thing very positive on this team, is the defensive duty awareness without the ball. Problem is on shitty pass when we have the ball.

I would have taken the draw but a win is a bonus. Need to get those results now for top 4.

Important win despite having referees against us. As usual.

Thought it was solid game.

A real last minute blow for the ETH out mob. There's always the next game though.
I mean great that we got the 3 points, and i'm not ETH out perse but you cannot be happy with that absolutely shocking performance surely? Felt more like delaying the inevitable than anything

McTom's PR machine is different class - Joe Cole called him outstanding :houllier:

Credit where it’s due, Maguire was rock solid, think he won every header he went for…. Bobbins team performance though

Bruno post match comments are nonsense. Saying we had the better chances and deserved to win.

I’m all for confidence building but they need to be aware that what they did today was not good enough.

Our usual pathetic performance just fortunate to face another really poor team.

On the disallowed goal, it looked like Iwobi’s was keeping Maguire onside. Still think it was the wrong decision.

Seldom does a win leave me feeling this disappointed. Awful football. If we can scrape wins against Copenhagen and Luton, maybe we can at least build a little confidence.

Ideally, Antony gets some individual training away from the team. Don't want to see him in a united shirt again this year
