Only Southampton have conceded less than Swansea this season. Set up well, and never bothered committing men to attack. Its games like that we really miss Mirallas I think, someone to beat the first man at pace and force a packed defense to re-adjust

Absolutely made up about this. One of the top, if not the top, young striker in Europe. I know he has things to work on, particularly his touch and keeping his head when things arent going his way, but he's only 21, so they will come. Fee is a lot but assuming its paid over a decent length of time thats not too bad. Also, its basically the Fellaini money, and when the transfer fees and wages for Jelavic, Heitinga and Anichebe would be to sit on the bench, then we are still probably better off than last season. As was said by a few earlier though, we know have a core of top young players at the club, so lets keep them together, progressing and we will be some force

Haha stop wrecking my slim, slim hopes!!

Taking this with a pinch of salt but said Id post anyways: https://twitter.com/photogareth/status/492051502387961856/photo/1 Its certainly Besic (Arm tattoos match) but could be anywhere really. The poster is a photographer for the Echo though.... Also Im desperate for some good news and need some straws to clutch to!!!

I like Negredo a lot but Id guess all 3 out of Dzeko Jovetic and Negredo see that second striker spot up for grabs. Not sure Seamus would be as pleased to see him coming though...

As an extra body, I think we could do a lot worse. Not a big fan of his. but wasnt of Gibson when he joined us either and he won me over. Bobby has a season of working with him at Wigan so he must see a player in there, and the fact he has played with McCarthy before can only be a positive. So while not sure about him, In Bobby I Trust.

After that break now, I couldnt agree more. Easy pull back to McGeady but Ger had to take on his man.... Not the correct option every time

Worries here... Team looks very imbalanced. Hope not playing McCarthy doesnt hurt us but so far it looks a mistake...

Didnt play well at all, against a team scrapping for their lives, normally a recipe for disaster but we got the points. 7 wins in a row folks, lets keep this going! Also, big shout out to Stones, twice saved certain goals, really playing great stuff at the minute

.....And breathe again....

Sitting way too deep here....

Ah Wes, thank you for that, we needed it

Would love to give it to every last one of them, starting with Bobby!! Went for McCarthy, himself and Barry shut down Cazorla entirely, only noticed he was there when Coleman was embarrassing him. McCarthy just shades it for his cover on the right flank though, Lukaku out that side meant Coleman needed the extra help and every time McCarthy was across quickly. Still almost feels harsh on the rest of the lads to single out one performance though

Congrats man

That was utterly immense, cant remember ever seeing us put in a performance like that in a big game! Shaking here, heart rate through the roof, but couldnt care less. Congrats to every single one of them, and especially Bobby! Naisy dropping deep and pulling the CBs out, Lukaku and Mirallas running into that space was genius! Looked at the team sheet and wasnt too confident. I really have to stop doubting Bobby's selections.
