    Eljero putting in a big shift. Like how he went over to high-five Tadić and also apologise there.

    Why can't we ever get an early goal?

    Hate it when we have so much possession and don't score

    Can Swansea sell Ashley Williams at the half? He's a bit of a nuisance.

    Slightly odd half this. We've been dominant, looked dangerous and should probably be ahead but at the same time it's not as though Fabianski has made save after save.

    Good half. Totally dominant. How are we not leading?

    Great half, good football being played - but now, in the wise words of Jeremy Kyle: "PUT SOMETHING ON THE END OF IT!"

    Not going to complain about the lack of end product, because Swansea deserves some credit there...their back line has made a number of last-ditch interventions to prevent likely scoring chances. Keep going and it'll come.

    I hope we will capitalize on this dominance.

    Not worried. Keep playing like this and we'll win. If Swansea come back into it, change shape a bit and bring Mané on to play behind Pellé.

    We don't always get the same possession as last season, but we win more often. We are dominating here, but if you don't score you leave yourself open to a single error resulting in a goal. Swansea have already had one good chance. I think I'm going under the duvet for the 2nd half. COYR

    Against a team like Swansea we have to take the clear cut chances, won't be many but have to take them

    Elia, Bertrand and Pelle are playing very well. Reed's defensive contribution is huge. JWP is a bit underwhelming, struggles to make any significant impact in tight spaces he operates in. If the result stays the same for a further 20 minutes, I'd change him for Mane, leave Tadića and Elia on the wings, while Mane would play off Pelle. It would be a really offensive formation, but maybe worth a risk.

    Can't see us scoring. Have no potency.

    Pelle infuriates me when he should take a touch.
