    Firstly, I'd like to congratulate a very good football team from Swansea, who will be just fine this season imo. They dominated possession for large parts of the game and gave us a lesson in retaining the ball and they probably think they earned a point..

    Note to self Swans. Learn to shoot.

    A difficult game which we have won and 2 of the best goals you'll see this season - again.

    The Mon bandwagon rolls on.

    27 points, 16 of them under the man who walks on water and has transformed our fortunes.

    Bring on the Boro.

    Strange game mate...****e atmosphere for some reason <maybe many of our fans don't think Swansea is not worth the effort). Secondly, although Swansea dominated the game, I never felt that we would ever lose it, and in the end maybe should have won by more than the 2 goals...

    Once they got bored of making 3 million pass, with sod all end product...they then resorted to much less fair play tactics...They decided to try and use the gas tactic to keep Sess at bay..

    Swansea really are the new Arsenal, lots of nice play but no teeth. Only thei home form will save them but I hav a feeling teams night have them sussed now.

    Actually that's not a bad description Syd....They are a poor version of Arsenal....

    Desperate for a goal poacher....pass all they want...but counts for nowt, till it hits the back of the net.

    I agree. They had 67% possession but less shots on and off target.

    They are a very pretty team to watch but toothless. They will be fine though this season, although I also agree that they will be found wanting next season unless they learn to shoot.

    BTW, get a bid in for that lad Dyer. Brilliant game yesterday.

    i was thinking the same thing if you rush at the back 4 you panic them and three times we got the ball from them and two more times the ball was deflected off our players

    Dyer was brilliant wasnt he and could be good cover for Sess if he gets injured but I would rather him stay at the Swans to keep them up first

    Funny enough, we all said he looked very sessegnon-like in his jinky runs and tricks. He had a great game and really caught the eye.
