As far as underserved victories goes

"put a quality striker up front for them and we'd have lost"?

Read the match reports in tomorrows papers. It'll be interesting to see how many say the best team won.

I'm a bit surprised about some of the personal abuse to be honest, probably shouldn't be though

I'm as happy as anyone else we won ffs

Totally deserved

That's because McClean has 2 touches then whips a cross in. Dyer does more passing, probing and running through for the return ball. He looks a very good player, easily better than that numpty SWP who used to play for England.

In the Prem, as we have learned, no matter what your tactics or how hard you work all it takes is a bit of quality to win games and we had the quality players and they didn't.

This this this. We knew how they'd play, we set up to counter that as we've been doing so well lately. Yes they passed around us a lot, but we denied them that bit of space in the final third and we got our just deserts.

Mon said last week after the Chelsea game he would be happy for Swansea to play us off the park and nick a win..

End of thread...

I don't think I've ever read that when we've played against a team more popular than us. Swansea will be that at the moment. And the media have massive hard-ons for posesison football just now so of course it won't be favourable.

Our midfiled got in front of Swansea will and were instrumental in both goals. If by being shite you mean not having a really higher pass completed record or 90 passes made each then yes. But again I'd point you to the fact that their midfield passing all the time led to very few chances. 67% posession and 4 shots on target is piss weak.

Dyer was frightening? Embarrassing!

Yeah you could put a capable striker up front but the same could be said for us. We still beat them 2-0 and it should have been more.
