    Excellent decision by sky to show Newcastle v villa instead of this game. Zero goals v 7 ( so far!)

    So glad that N'Gog came on and since then we have been ****.

    I know Dyer was a bit hit n miss today, but N'Gog on the wing, really?

    Another performance to give the team confidence. It may be zero points, but every pundit were forecasting a drubbing. In the end the pool just edged it, but by god did we make a game of it. All very encouraging.

    What a game, and what a performance from the lads, they didn't look tired at all considering we played Napoli Thursday.

    Thought we tired toward the end, understandably. Great effort and with a bit of luck could have got a draw. Must give the guys confidence going forward.

    We cant complain on that performance, We matched a top 4 side and deserved a draw but it wasn't to be. Far bigger sides couldn't do what we achieved today and we come away with merit for the manager and the players who showed what we have been missing for a hell of a long time...very happy with the progress monk is making...<ok>

    If I had a pacemaker, the f*cker would have exploded during that game! Feel like I've run a marathon. <laugh>

    Great game, lads. Swansea were fantastic. Not many teams will score three goals at Anfield this season. Thought we were below par but I can't take anything away from your performance. You deserved at least a draw in that game. Good luck with the rest of the season. <cheers>

    Well done the lads did great against a team at the top of thier game at the moment and at thier famous home , i hoped for a draw at least but they could have nicked this one pool looked a bit nervous when we kept at them. A couple of high end additions and we could be beating teams at the top regularly.
    Take it out to Napoli now and go for thier throats where every goal we score counts as 2 !

    As a neutral................what a game! I really though Liverpool would go on and score a bucket load at 2-0, but credit where credit is due, The Swans made a hell of a game of it.
    Don't panic lads, although a defeat, keep up that level of performance and you will have no worries about what's going on in the last 5 or 6 places <ok>

    Never thought we would get anything from this game long before the whistle started the match . The team is nearly on all cylinders now and not a minute to soon . Less than 4 points from the Palace and West Brum games and we will be officially be in the "Battle " . Think we will get all 6 points though . Hope Shelvey is all right , Dyer too, bit surprized they started

    Thanks Thai glad you enjoyed, I think we deserved a point, but the main issue is we are on track now with our performances under Garry Monk, he really deserves our full support for the way he is turning our season around, our boys were magnificent again against superior fire power, cannot wait for the Napoli second leg!....................<ok>

    I would rather lose with credit than lose going down with a whimper and making all sorts of excuses blaming players that for sure. It was never the players who lost the games it was always the system we played that did not allow the players to show what skill they had bursting to come out but was not allowed to because of the type of football ML wanted the team to play....

    No doubt you have reason to feel a bit more optimistic, though my gut feeling is the 2nd leg will be a step too far but who knows, get a goal and they have to get two so there is a chance <ok>

    I just wish we could score goals like you guys did today. We are playing well but blunter than a butter knife in front of goal, and I think it is going to cost us our PL place <wah>

    I think you're fine, I reckon the relegated teams are WBA, Fulham and Cardiff
