Football is about winning. For me anyway.

Football is about building a good foundation base on tactics and team selection so as to enable the team to win more often and with ease.

If we win every game like that until the end of the season then I’ll be dead happy.

I’m not sure some of you lot like winning games.

Just be happy we won. Jesus Christ.

If he’s as crap as loads of you make out then there will be loads of defeats to have a go at him.

Personally I can’t be arsed and would rather enjoy 3 points as that’s literally all that matters.

Stop defending the indefensible!

His subs all had a positive impact on the game. Yes to some extent this bailed him out but equally he could have made awful subs and lost 2 nil.

Winning is always good. This team needs confidence and only winning really helps that.

No mate.

It was his agent who asked for more monies that stopped the transfer to Palace!

He got lucky today not because of the win.

He got lucky he stumble upon a good balance selection with his substitution after going a goal down. Please don't credit him with genius substitution, he should have known ages ago that Rooney klassen and siggy should not be playing in the same team. The 3 of them is so confuse with their role and the whole team is affected.

Only genius if we win and shambolic if we lose. Simple as that. Subs were needed today to chase a game and it worked....it happens and sometimes it doesn't but are needed. When chasing it's like a toss of a coin. He got the subs right today only because we won.

Would you rather we played poor, had to grind it, got some luck, but ultimately got the win. Or would you prefer we bossed the game, missed dozens of chances, played exceptionally well, but had atrocious luck and lost 1 nil? We were fortunate but it's in the record books as 3 points and that's all the ultimately matters.

We were awful today. He's massively got out of jail. Lessons need to be learned.

Yes just because we win we can criticise our managers inept team selections selection of two defensive mid fielders and 3. No 10s 75 minutes of dross - Niassie has taken the pressure off him for now the three subs were better than the three who came off good judgement or should they have started at 3 pm?

Not allowed to criticise the manager mate... Especially after scraping a win against relegation candidates....

We were selling Niasse, as we thought we had a striker coming in. Niasse deal didn't fall through, it was pulled.

Not according to reports which said it didn't go through because of a dispute over agent's fees. Logically if this was the case then why wasn't Niasse named in the Europa League. Sorry but I think it's completely clear that Koeman was happy to let the sale go through even if we didn't sign another striker.
