    I agree, as soon as that penalty was scored, the mindset of the team completely changed and you could see the confidence oozing from them. If we can sneak a point next week at WBA, then I'll be very happy.

    Everyone in attack plays better when Leon plays too. Huge shout out to Fulton too. He is going to be vital for us this season.

    Let's all just pray Bob doesn't tinker with this side now on our away trips. Llorente must start! And our third goal is exactly why we have been screaming out for wingers all season! Monty has assisted a fair few with them dinked crosses.

    Just like to say that Fulton is a welcomed solid bit of bite we desperately needed in our midfield, he worked his socks off on the ball and off it, Bob needs to bring him into the midfield, he works well alongside Leon, great pairing.......... <ok>

    It reminds me of when Raymond Burr was starring as Ironside - he quit after 2 series as he was sick of being pushed around..... <laugh><laugh><laugh>

    Good solid team performance today playing some good passing football and keeping possession.

    First half, neither team had a shot on target, our crosses were woeful and we lacked penetration but in the second half it was all much improved. Good game management by keeping on the front foot after taking the lead. OK, Sunderland didn't trouble us much, but the defence looked solid enough.

    What's all the fuss about <laugh>

    Revenge is sweet after last seasons fiasco......3 goals and a clean sheet is a fantastic result for the swans just what we needed......plenty of work to do but it shows we are not the worst team in the premiership....<ok> Gylfy is my MOM followed by Leon who was like the old Leon who controlled the midfield superbly for the first time this season when he played....I'm not going to count my chickens yet as we need to be consistent but im really pleased for Bob and it shows we can win difficult games under immense pressure when we try......More of the same required please....

    Bob is great.

    4 wins during the rest of the month would rectify that!

    A desperately needed win accomplished thank goodness, it was against a team in the brown stuff just like us too so more wins are still desperately needed till we climb further out of it . Great to see Leon getting at them again . 75%
