great nearer needs selection sorted
We have all been embroiled in it and if they are getting nearer to a selection then great because it needs to be sorted out.
credit creep great played three took victory
When I put the three subs on we really went for it and they played a big part in the victory but great credit to Orient they took us all the way and we just managed to creep through.
belief bit composure four gave goalkeeper great pick saves thomas top
When you play the top four away, you need your goalkeeper to get 11 out of 10 and that's what Thomas did for us. He made some great saves and showed a bit of composure and gave us belief that we could pick something up here.
achievement great happen home knows next night win
It was a great night for us and a great achievement. Who knows what will happen in the next round. It was a night for the fans, but I would swap it for a home win in the league.
great hope
They did great for their club, ... and I hope now they can go on to better things in the league.
forward great work
We're better than we showed today. A lot of that's down to Chelsea. Not only are they great going forward but they work so hard.
again chasing defenders ended finish four game goal goals great past players point run second
Once again we ended up chasing the game - but their first goal infuriated me. Their second goal was a great run and finish - but from our point of view, you can't let players go past four defenders like that. The two goals we conceded were avoidable.
great performance played result
Not only have we got the result but we've played ever so well, that was a great performance,

We moved in straight away, and although he was publicly linked with other clubs, we were always confident we would sign Danny.
beat everybody game ourselves situation
The situation we find ourselves in, this is a game we can't get beat in and have to win, and if we can do that, then it will give everybody a lift.
chance determined finished game teams today upset
There was a chance of a real upset today and other teams have done it to us before. But we were determined and finished the game off.
follow needs others transfer
Sometimes it just needs one transfer and then others follow on like dominoes.
hard hard-work hopefully lost recent turning work
We've lost our way in recent weeks, the hard work wasn't there but we're getting back to that now. Hopefully we're on our way to turning it round.
bit strengthen
I would like to do a bit more if I can, so let's see. I want to strengthen as much as I can.
