Ideally, you want to place the lift vector on the bandit and hold it there through most of the roll or the bandit will be able to defeat it. Keeping sight of the enemy is crucial.

pretty good examples , except for that last part, placing the lift vector "on" the bandit will leave you pure or possibly even still leading, I would suggest placing the lift vector slightly behind the tail of the opponent if not right on his tail......
remember the lift vector is that invisible line that runs from the seat of the cockpit straight up your back thru the top of your head and out the canopy to infinium.......if it was placed on the bandit you would still be positioning for pure or lead......
Flight controls & Lift Vector Aces High Trainers Helpsite hope this helps
edit: I reread it, you said hold it there for most of the roll, you know how to fly them, I just making it a bit clearer for the newcomers. for others when people are talking about Lag, Pure, & Lead they are talking about Lag Pursuit, Pure Pursuit, & Lead Pursuit. You can also read about these subjects at the above linked Trainers Website for an indepth study. ~S~ Gum
