I think it was Dean Saunders who injured Elliot.

Unless Townsend did it at some other time ?

He didn’t appear in court on Elliot’s behalf

So proud of them all tonight. Fantastic performance and for once, Maresca deserves credit and he got the subs right.

Starting CB's were both excellent and feared we were going to cave in when they went off. Few of our players were going down a bit too easy and I got frustrated with Fernadez who would go down and keep looking at ref for whistle but then have to say, he did have one of is best game in ages. Nothing like a late, late winner - especially against the dippers, as I was certain they would get a 97th minute winner themselves.

How can we look so sh*t one game and then do that tonight - and with so many injuries? Can go to bed happy tonight. KTBFFH......................!!!

Jamie Carragher labelled Liverpool the new Galacticos

They're good but they're not that good

Neither were the Galacticos.

The funniest part of the game was when we had a free kick wide left in the second half. They almost refused to mark Gusto inside and clearly wanted us to play it to him with the firm knowledge he wouldn’t hit the target with the space he had.

I like Gusto but he gets nosebleeds every single time he gets into a great position.

Excellent, fully deserved win today and I thought Josh came of age tonight. Caicedo is irreplaceable. Much more so than even Palmer.

@Boyne said he would bring a book just in case, expect a summary at half time.

Fortunately didn't need it. A great result. Always nice to beat the Scallies. Best we've played in a long time. Atmosphere was brilliant.

KTBFFH.

WATP.

Ok this makes up for for the dross performance, and result, against Palace.

Losing 8 points to Brentford, United and Brighton, who are all dross, is still not good enough.

today though we enjoy this fine win. here's to the first of many Estevao!

That was such a good game! Why can’t we play like this every game? We went for them and never tried to defend the score. Mind you, we always look good against them at home, so we’ll be back to dog sh*t next game.

Ahyea, was elated at the last minute winner, important one for mentality, and some insights into how we ‘might’ be able to operate successfully without Colwil or being overly reliant on Chalobah; Maresca came out of this well. However, it’s 8 points dropped, and that’s massive at this stage of the season, as we know what usually happens half way through. And of course, an international break, typical.

8 big points as we still have our novemeber/christmas/new years annual slump to come.

Charity fc took a game off.

Who's next? As right the much maligned Big ange and Forest...

I can understand the fans not liking him, Elliot feeling very agrieved. But still don’t get why he has so little empathy for our club along with Burley and Poyet

Bitterness, burley hates everything because he just missed out on the big money era.

Three defeats in a row for the Champions LOL

They spent 1 billion on Isak that some people here thought we should go for and now they can't make it work. Love it.

Even without us winning at the end, that was a brilliant match. It's been a while since I've been able to enjoy a game as a football fan.

Isn’t it Forest away, Sunderland home and Spurs away? We should beat Sunderland, Spurs at three points lane is not a given as they’ve improved, Forest away could go either way. I’d say 5 points given our dire state would be good.

Why is Estevao taking that on the outside of the foot? Just a simple through ball was all that was needed.

Please don't analyse Estevao, Scott. You are not sufficiently qualified.

However, Neto and Gittens? Knock yourself out.

Given we got 1 point from Brentford, United and Brighton 1 to 2 points is very plausible.

However, like us losing at Old Trafford no matter how bad United are we have 0 excuses for not beating Spurs, it is our heritage anything less is a disgrace.

The bridge was limbs.

All the Arsenal fans are crowing about this result.

They better blow it.... again...

I've been pretty negative of late, but that was a very enjoyable game. Had everything from Caicedo's world class goal to winning at the death courtesy of Estevao.

Our inconsistency is still troubling me, but at the least standard has been set now. This squad is good enough to be comfortably top 4 and possibly even contending for the title.

To win this without Cole Palmer adds another layer of impressiveness to the victory.

Just watched the winning goal again and it makes me sad. It came from a counter attack.

When we come up against low block teams, the stress will return.
