    Weathered a lot of pressure towards the end. Celina was frustrating...so much talent but he's always thinking two touches ahead and as a result loses far too much possession.

    Difficult game to put Surridge in....wasn't overly impressed but that was compared to the good shift Borja put in.

    A point is decent enough though, just a shame we didn't capitalise on the first half.

    I don’t have much expectations with Surridge anyway. He’s been out on loan for the best part of 2 seasons at Yeovil and Oldham - today was his first taste of football at thIs level.

    Got to be happy with a draw here after a great penalty save by our keeper. If we can get a few away draws like this against a side tipped for a top 6 spot i will be well happy. 4 points from two games is a good start for Cooper but he must clamp down on our fouls we gave away. Not the best performance by us by a long way but it is early days yet and a point away is not to be sniffed at..

    I do like Potter he's positive and isn't afraid to say what he thinks , to be disappointed in a away draw imo shows the guy has confidence in his decision making and more importantly with the squads' ability .

    Swansea City manager Steve Cooper said: "We're disappointed we didn't create enough chances because we got into positions where we could create chances but the final ball let us down on too many times."

    That's exactly the same as last week. If we can rectify this our strikers should have a field day!

    I've watched that penalty decision about 5 times and there was definitely no foul !
    Awful, awful decision.

    I have to agree, wonder what VAR would have made of it, other than add 10 minutes of pointlessly standing around waiting for the wrong decision.

    That is a great point, no matter how we played, not that many will go to derby and get something.
