This can stay 0-0 at 45mins, thank you.

 

HALF-TIME: Swansea City 0-0 Southampton

 

After to early pressure Saints appear on top and have given their keeper plenty to think about
Great last fifteen lads and unlucky not to go in in the lead

 

Good, interesting game so far, and I've been able to watch nearly all of it. Fingers crossed for the 2nd half.

 

Starting to look like this might be the year that Wigan's luck runs out.

 

Danny Fox has had a good half.

 

Agreed with above, however said after 10 minutes we're going to get stuffed please leave the board.

 

QPR booed off.

 

Shhh, don't jinx hm!

 

Yeah he's looked really good!

Swansea passed us off the park in the first 25 minutes but since then we've been getting a few chances. Lallana 'foul' on Vorm looked contentious to me, didn't see much wrong with it but I'd have to see it again to be sure. Didn't see any hint of handball, but I suppose he might have headed it out of Vorm's hands which isn't strictly allowed.

As for the Lambert penalty shout, well, I've seen them given.

If we keep getting those chances I can see us snatching it. Swansea are certainly capable of coming back into it though.

 

We're lacking a cutting edge in the final third, I think Ramírez could be answer.

 

That's a turnabout from your hammered comment.

 

I have had to reload firstrow twice uring the half but link two is ok.

 

PTF speaks for me too. Obviously they will get a chance, but we are picking it up on the edge of their area.

I can see us scoring. I think Gaston would suit this game.

 

I think the tactic is get to 60 minutes level then bring on Gaston for Davis and tear them to shreds.

Pretty decent, and has English commentary. No issues with freezing first half.

 

Fox really seemed to settle, hopefully he can close out he game well.

Thought the disallowed goal was a little bit niggly but haven't got the clearest view whilst watching on a stream and not at all surprised it was disallowed with the protection afforded to keepers so I wouldn't really complain. Rickie's penalty shout is just him being a victim of his own strength, most strikers would get that but Rickie is expected to stay on his feet and battle, which I understand to a degree. Think the balance of the game is pretty clear, Swansea have the best of play in the first two thirds but we're looking much more dangerous in the final third, just depends how much of the ball we get in that area.

I expect Swansea to come out and take control again, we just need another 10-15 minute burst like we did at the end of the half, but this time - score!

 

Wayne Routledge on for Luke Moore.

 

TSS ...we would have if we hadn't pressed up to close the space for Swansea to pass through us

 

1-0 Norwich.
