Good win, doesn't change much. Long way to go.

Solanke playing with such unbridled confidence that he nutmegged himself before scoring!

Dele would be so proud!

The only thing missing was him gobbing on himself after it was given.

That was like a breath of fresh air tonight, and boy, was it welcome.

Did we just hear a badger announcing the beginning of the new dawn...?

It's the optimism that gets you.

I unfortunately missed the game but am chuffed with the result. Watched the highlights on YouTube and it was never a sending off. About time had something go in our favour though.

I'm just hoping this is a momentum shifter. Reading everyone's comments it seemed everyone was chuffed with having Udogie back, and impressed that Frank then unleashed Spence further forward. I got the impression that having our only real number 9 playing made a difference and also read that Xavi was impressive. I'm guess the 2 young midfielders played with maturity beyond their years as well, whilst the Romero/Danso partnership blossoms again.

I'm really happy for Frank. He'll hopefully have a few back at the weekend like Biss / Gallagher / Tel etc. If he can get another win, I think he can still turn this around.

Be nice to see Kulu getting involved soon.

It was a frustrating night for us at home as internet was not working, I only listen to matches on radio if I'm driving and had to keep checking text on TV (some say it's the best way to watch us this season), couldn't even follow it on here, pleased for everyone, the players must feel relief after that win. I had little hope of anything tonight.

Didn’t see it as I’m away but woke this morning and am delighted with that. Great result and credit to Frank given the pressure he is under.

Still a long way back from here but that does not take away from the result.

Didn't watch the match. Congratulations to the manager and the team. Solid progress in CL.

The first half in particular was so much better than what we've seen this season. Obviously having Solanke back helps, but just the intent and movement of giving forward options was great. Also helps having Udogie back who gives much better balance.

I can't help but feel it would be wrong to give up on Frank - the second best away record in the league, top 8 in the CL. It's been a horrendous couple of months performance and results wise but the players are playing for him and maybe as players return he could arrest the home form. To put in that performance and result with the number of players we had out was impressive. He deserves all the credit for matches like this, just needs to make it more frequent.....
