Win and clean sheet. Good start.

Same with Bolton when they bit the bullet

… and Wimbledon

 

[Paul Rideout]

Nice to see 2 tactical changes during play to 4-3-3 then back to 4-4-2.

Its the in game management we’ve been crying out for.

 

[MrGrumpy]

Difficult team to play against given their park-the-bus tactics.

Some signs of promise though, especially when we went a goal up and they had to play out a bit.

Smash the Geordies on Saturday and the league table may start looking more palatable

10 points off 4th, 7 points off 5th

 

[Mikey O]

Deserved the win - first half was hard to watch though.

DCL saves the day

 

[Rooney_Tunes]

Well done blues, well done Carlo and up yours you much deriding media whoppers.

Pretty sure at 79 minutes they were smiling and sharpening their pencils.

 

[Blue83]

Decent 3 points, looked a completely different team

 

[big nev lookalike]

A solid performance,except the first minute. Another clean sheet,thought Sidibe was MOM. The best crosser of a ball in the squad. A cracking goal from DCL,who played well again.
Just hope that Carlo can teach us some new corner routines,as we only seem to have option,which against Burnley was never going to work.

 

[arbok]

One of the tougher mid table sides to play against. Not many chances because they defend well. This is a great result.

 

[blue1948]

I did pick Mason but really there were at least three or even four that could have been the on the day .How nice is that ?

 

[Agent Blue]

Workmanlike performance, clean sheet and three points. Liked how we changed formation a couple of times to suit the ebb and flow of the game...... previous managers take note.
A much needed win and Sidibe MoM.

 

[Marius57]

Who was the presenter interviewing coleman and DCL?

 

[witchdoc187]

Excellent result, thoroughly deserved, players gave everything, also noticed far less misplaced passes today.

 

[roydo]

Planning Permission in, Carlo Ancelotti in, Reidys book read, 3 points.

Happy Christmas?

Exactly we have two battle fronts at the moment -
1. Climbing the league to safety
2. Wiping the smiles of the majority of the click whore anti-Everton football journos.
