    Really chuffed with how the swans played. Man u know how to play against our style of football, and they were cruising for most of the game, but we didn't change our philosophy, and only lost by one goal. A mixture of man u sitting off us, and joey Allen coming on almost gave us control of the game, but that defence is so hard to break down.
    Neil Taylor kept nani quiet, ash Williams was awesome in the air and Leon was on top form (my throat is sore from shouting leeeeon!) . Dyer did well, Sinclair was very unlucky after one of his better games, but joey Allen is looking more and more like a top class midfielder every time I see him.
    Danny graham worked his ass off again, routledge linked up better than normal, but he is not a central midfielder, and dobbie was predictably ****.

    A game of 2 errors. Both by Swansea.
    Man U tought us a lesson in 'clinicality' and hopefully the boys will continue to learn. Good luck for the rest of the season Stretford.

    Awesome to see the mutual respect Swansea's own Busby Babe Kenny Morgans with Bobby Charlton before the game.

    Some things are bigger than football.

    Man U will be happy to have got out of Dodge tonight. No team is going to like coming to play in Swansea.

    Well played my Swans and lets not forget, we would have bitten anyones hand off for 17th come the end of the season.

    I think there are a lot more than 3 worse teams than us this year.

    We were our own worst enemy today, great escape by manu, who we played off the park for large chunks of the game, shame Allen didn't start, but at the end of the day that was a mature display by our boys, and they should all be pleased with the shift they put in. Rangel was not at his best today, seemed nervous most of the game, and didn't seem to settle on the ball, yes he made a bad pass, that cost us, but Monk was to slow for the follow up block on the cross, I'm sure Rodgers, and the boys will learn, but we need Caulker back ASAP. Scott Sinclair really needs to start firing up with goals now, I'm getting a tad impatient with him, oh how I miss Borini!.............................

    If you could lip read Rogers on tv when Sinclair missed .... he seems to agree with you.
