    Spot on mate, thought he also showed maturity by taking off Wanyama and Mulgrew who were on bookings, I have slated him in the past for not doing so and sure as *, someone gets sent off, but it was positive substitutions also, so happy, such a young management team and playing staff. We have loads to offer, not trying to get carried away, just delighted tonight!!

    Well done gaffer!

    Great result for Lenny, thought the shape and composure of the team was great apart from the lapses in concentration for the goals.

    Another feather in Lenny's cap, let's hope he can build on this result for the rest of the CL campaign.

    Agreed thought the team looked very good shape wise tonight. To be fair even the first goal was more about a brilliant pass and lay off then really bad defending. Sure Wilson got caught looking at the ball a bit but it was still a superb pass. But beyond that spell early in the second half really I though we defended well, looked good on the counter attack in the first half and fought back well when we went behind. Good subs as well which had a big impact for us in the win.

    There will be on the highlights programmes after I'd imagine. They couldn't get our game off quick enough to get the chelsea game on tonight

    Got it right tonight for sure, I'm so glad he gave Hooper the start and we had some unexpected heroes out there, especially Lustig.

    He played a formation that was compact and gave us width when we needed it and boy did that width pay off!

    Lennon tactically outclassed one of the most well known and respected managers in European football, and a Uefa cup winner.

    :notworthy

    Got it right tonight maybe a little lucky but we have earned that luck ,Thing that impressed me most tonight was he made us drive on and look for the win maybe in the past we would have settled for the draw even v ten men.
