    Last season, people said you passed like Barcelona. Today, you kind of played like them.

    I thought the first half was pretty even going forward, and although we looked more dodgy at the back, both teams created fairly good chances.

    In the second half, we were woeful.

    You've got a cracking player in Michu (I'd put him MOTM), and played some stunning football today. Good luck for the rest of the season - it doesn't look like you'll need it.

    Oh, and you'll be pleased to know a couple of idiots are already calling for Hughes' head.

    Congratulations on the win Swans. Looks like you have a great player in Michu, I take zero consolation in the fact I have him in my fantasy football team.

    I still think we'll be fine - today was one of those days when all that could have gone wrong did, and your guys played very well indeed! The kind of day that we've all had following our teams! You guys look sharp and should be completely fine. Out of interest, who did you play in pre-season?

    Very magnanimous <applause> Shame other fans from your club can't act likewise.

    I'd give Routledge MOM.

    Alright we have had a great result today but there is one thing that i am not happy about why have the club not been registered as Abertawe AFC, if we had done this we would have been top of the premiership

    well what a start we did ok first half similar to the 2 halves against Stuttgart but second half bloody nora keep up the good work boys, and i thought the post match interview by ML i thought was excellent what a shrewd bit of business by HJ yet again ML = Michu = variety = 5 goals and the last time was 1981 that we done that in the top tier i think :biggrin:

    I'm afraid there was a need. The only fans we get any real trouble with are QPR. Just look at your own board.

    I'm afraid some Rangers fans have asked for it Stan. Amongst the decent posters there have been plenty giving it large saying how they were candidates for Europe, and even worse that the "Welsh shouldn't be in our league" in the lead up. There are very few fans from other clubs who give us that **** these days. It's nothing personal but just desserts I say. <ok>

    Who've you boys got next? If you play like that, even City might struggle.

    (Although they'd probably score a few as well....)

    Though I don't suppose we'll be hearing from many of them anytime soon, for some reason. :biggrin:

    Thanks for the kind words QPR fans - very impressed by Hughes's post-match interview - no excuses, just told it as it was. You've got a cracking manager - one that, by rights, should have been knocking about when people were talking about some of the top jobs. You guys will be absolutely fine - maybe not top half, but building towards that the next year. After a defeat like that, what are the odds on winning the next one? Pretty good, it normally serves as a wake up call. Good luck for the season.
