[Sky Blue Pete]

Ref is absolutely aching for a Swansea dive in the box.

After we’ve scored another 4

what time is kick off?

Right after this 5 minute porn video and I’ve claimed my £395 Asda voucher

 

[Nick]

Looked like it went in off his shoulder despite being in acres and having loads of time. Only saw it once, though, so could be wrong.

Nah good header

 

[ptr]

Trying to wind Lati up and it’s working

 

[Frostie]

This ref has no control.

Why no booking for their player

Some very odd decisions. That foul against Latibeaudiere, Yates slipped & crashed through the back of him yet he gave them the free-kick ‍

 

[TomRad85]

That goal has made me so angry, we were completely untroubled otherwise.

HT 1-1

Disappointing, really.

 

[Marty]

Dominated the first half, gave them a stupid goal, but only one team looks like winning this.

We’ll turn it round when Hamer comes on

 

[Macca]

Interesting half. Wonder if our 20 goal striker turns out to be MG? Totally defensive control mixed with a shit show to concede . I’d take this at FT

 

[PVA]

Swansea aren't very threatening at all, really poor from us for that goal.

Haji gone a bit quiet after a great start, Sakamoto looks really good though.

 

[Perryccfc]

Some brilliant football, lack a little penetration but much the better side.

 

[Jamesimus]

Both teams have a decent amount of quality on the ball, it's a pretty good watch.

Lati either winding the Swans fans up, or being wound up by the Swansea players.

MVE showing at the end of that half what he can bring on the counter.

Sakamoto looking very comfortable.

A few silly errors from Sheaf but didn't cost us.

McFadz showing he still has the skills on the edge of the penalty area a few times.

It's actually a really good game, but I would like us to be playing a bit quicker in the final third. All the new lads looking decent imo.

 

[no_loyalty]

Disappointing to be drawing this, we have been much the better team.

 

[CovLis86]

Game of half chances (and that's being kind). No big chances for either team. Saka has been busy, van ewijk more confident which is good to see. Think he could be shit hot by Christmas.

Can and should absolutely get a win here.

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Crap goal to give away so soon after scoring...totally switched off ..DaSilva's lack of height and pace exposed,..Fadz didn't come over to head the ball and I think Wilson could have come out to punch the ball. So easy for Yates who seems to like scoring against us

 

[harvey098]

Great team goal and finish from Matty.

Sloppy goal for us to concede. Fadz got lost but hes been sublime otherwise.

Van Ewijk been so much better and giving us an outlet every time.

Sakamoto has been ineffective so far, missing Palmers physicality.

Eccles has been brilliant - what a consistent player he’s turning into.

 

[steve101]

How we miss Hamer in a game like this. We look very predictable. Sakamota's first touch is sublime but would like him to be a bit more direct on occasions. VE having a better game.

 

[mrfr]

Feels like we have more goals in us today. Swansea are so slow on the half turn in defence, Sakamoto and Van Ewijk are getting lots of chances to play balls in to the front two. I’d like fo see us try and play a bit more centrally going forwards second half.

 

[skybluecam]

Not sure why people ever slagged Godden off, he's always been clinical when fit.

Pretty sure that season Mitrovic scored 40 he had the second best min/goal ratio in the league

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

At least we’ll see who’s on the shit streams now

Yeeeessssss, get in Godden!

 

[Tommo1993]

Really wouldn’t say we’ve dominated per se… unsure how people have seen that.

 

[stupot07]

Poor start, then grabbed the initiative and then the goal, but poor defending to concede not afterwards.

Be a decent performance Saka looks good, and Milan much better. Eccles has been disappointing, he's not had the same influence as last week.

We're going to be a really good sign once the new players have properly bedded in.
One bit of poor defending let us down otherwise we've been decent.

Think he's going to enjoy playing alongside Wright.

 

[mrfr]

I think that’s harsh on Sakamoto, he’s been very good.

You doing your act again? Sakamoto has very good and was key to our goal

I thought this myself, it all sounded very open.

We’re getting there, but we’re lacking a cutting edge at the moment.

Yeah, considering this is a side with 6 new signings in we look good already and will only get better.

 

[Skyblueweeman]

And can we stop banging on about Hamer? He's gone...doesn't matter what he 'might' have done. He plays for another team..who cares what he might have done?

I don't get the constant hankering for players departed.

 

[ptr]

Agreed. Playing a free role that’s causing them problems. Heavily involved in the goal.

Agreed, although a replacement is very obviously needed.

 

[CV3SkyBlue]

And if somebody did such a thing how would they get Comms if they weren't working

The one I use has a 24 hour whatsapp number that replies to you if you have any issues lol

Not dominant but certainly having the better of the momentum and possession.
