    JWP tends to go full WUM mode at RB so 10 v 10 does look possible at some point.

    Broja was looking a bit sleepy early doors, wasn't doing much pressing and sloppy ball control.

    Ahh Peter Rodrigues. I had a pee next to him at Alan Ball’s 50th birthday party.

    Apparently you can get a yellow card for touching an opponent's shoulder?

    Apparently. I'm more annoyed that this has spoilt the game a bit. It's not fun to watch now.

    I feel for Simeu. Can’t really see him getting a game now either.

    BBC Wales being comprehensive as **** about Saints at half time, far better coverage than we get on BT, Sky and U.K. wide BBC. Bizarre, but pleasantly surprising.

    Even more bizarre given their complete lack of research on the current squad.

    Props the the female commentary too. Really went into detail about how we play. Refreshing to hear

    Very odd not to see any changes after our reaction to the red. It looked to me as though we were just waiting for a swansea goal

    The match commentators don’t fully seem to get it, but at least they are trying

    Presenter and summarisers doing fairly well mind.

    Broja looks a bit leggy

    Awful positional play by Tella there. Way too close to Borja.

    He just looks like the raw, inexperienced player he is.

    If he is leggy after an hour of football since Boxing Day then the clamour to sign him might be misplaced

    If Ralph is sticking with JWP at RB then gdt Diallo on for Armstrong or Tella. Need to keep the ball better than this

    Ref showing his willingness to make up the rules on booking for 'professional' fouls
