<laugh> Yeah Joey was fantastic but I watch very tactically sometimes and what people do off the ball as much as on it, so that's why I picked up on Britton's masterclass today. Rename the Makalele role ;) I didn't get to the Arsenal game, no. I only saw a few highlights but I think it'd have...

<laugh> Good on you Musty - quality that one! I think I'll pass on the bovril tho ;)

17 views, 0 replies? Ohh I see, you're all waiting to watch MOTD to pick apart my mistakes, aren't you?! <laugh> Well here is one set of stats I'll throw in that MOTD won't: Swansea Footballing Intelligence: 7/10 Tactical Discipline: 7/10 Emotional Discipline: 10/10 Passion: 9/10 Workrate...

Yeah Graham missed training with an ankle knock, then hurt his back so missed the game. Lita may only be 5'9 but he's got springs in his heels and energy enough to outbounce Tigger himself! <laugh> Vorm is also made out of elastic it seems, and again I'm delighted with his performance. The...

Never fear - BESSONE IS HERE! Everyone calm and reassured now? <laugh>

Because I replied before the poll was up, lol Voted for him now though!

Seeing as the minutes silence was also for one of their youth players who recently died, I was quite shocked at the lack of respect they showed. Still it was a vast minority and their own fans and players were quick to try and shut them up too.

Here we are again, though that international break and the Arsenal game make this feel like it's well overdue. Still, have no fear - the analysis is finally here! (TL;DR Version: The most enjoyable game so far and it was well worth waiting for!) The occasion The Swans started brightly and made...

If anyone doesn't vote for Leon after such an amazing performance - floating around, protecting the defence, excellent intelligence and technique - then you're just wrong :emoticon-0110-tongu Honestly I thought Vorm was amazing, Lita impressed, and Allen shone - but Leon was head and...

He's tall, strong, versatile (central defender and midfielder), cheap, young, hungry and a natural born leader (captained the French U16s-U21s). I think it's a bargain price we've got him for and the resale value on him could be huge if we went down. If we stay up though, he can turn into a...

Yeah he needed the work permit sorted for the loan (not a problem due to him being a mainstay for Algeria) and now it depends on international clearance. The official site doesn't announce deals that aren't fully done so expect news when the clearance is granted (which shouldn't be a problem)...

I'm only Welsh because I've lived here since a baby - I was born in South Africa. I still thank the lord I live in his own country, sing a song and dance in the rain. I'm fairly fed up with pessimism about our club - ffs we're in the Premier League with £90m at least coming to us, best squad...

Cheers for the feedback- always nice to know people like it. And yes I'm now following that twitter account, seen it around before but for some reason wasn't following until now.

Buck has a lot of patience and he needs to as it takes time to adjust to playing against quicker (mentally as well as physically) teams at this higher level. The BBC site was awful with their stats last season too, which is why I switched to one that was far more up to date and seemed to miss a...
