[Davearmy]

5 added mins taking the piss?

[HughieG]

WTF 5 mins? Where did he get that from?

[Curian]

always the case when you don't want it. i think they give 30secs per sub if I am correct? 6 subs 2nd half =3 minutes!!!

Massive win, i don't think we'd of done it a season ago.

Very unselfish of Kenedy as well, he could of attempted the shot.

[Zippity]

Huge, huge win.

Huddersfield go exactly what they deserved-absolutely nowt. Only one team was trying to win that game but the longer it went on, the more you thought they might sneak one.

Have to disagree, Hughie-I thought Perez was awful. Did his usual array of ridiculous flicks, running into trouble, not holding the ball up and losing possession as easily as I'd lose me load if I even came within touching distance of Myleene. Gayle showed yet again that he's not up to it-another game that could have been over by half time if he was Premier League quality...which he's not.

Anyhoo...don't want to end on a negative. I thought we controlled the game extremely well, created some good chances, battled well. and Diame was great again. Still not safe by any means but we have 7 games left to get the 4 or so points we need and you'd like to think that's not beyond us.

Fair enough mate. With Perez, I suppose it's about the eyes that see. What you're describing is how I've felt about him for a long, long time. Lately, however, it's occurred to me how he actually plays well even when it may seem like he doesn't - mainly by frustrating the opponents. He takes up a lot of their attention which is why the position behind the main striker is ideal as it creates space. I think everyone can see just how hard he works and the opposition usually knows that on the ball he can be very dangerous, even if he hasn't shown it lately. There are also things he doesn't do well still, but today I think he did very well on and off the ball (generally).
