Did we add an extra 0 when buying Delph - mind you he doesn't even look like a £600,000 player let alone £6m

Hope all of those who wanted him to play instead of Petrov are happy today - let's hope his injury doesn't keep him out for too long

As I've said for a while - I have never seen him have a good game and he's running out of excuses now.  Shocking control, wild tackles and seemingly always carrying a yellow card after 5 minutes which means his wild lunges and follow throughs leave you with your heart in your mouth.

The board have raped our club. They've actually raped it.

Can we stop using that word in this context on this board? It's rank.

huge half time for McLeish this. We lose against this lot who lets face it are piss poor and his position with the supporters will soon drift into untenable. Think Jenas will definitely come on but Hutton and Heskey must go for me.

We need to get footballers into our wide. Bannan, Ireland. Our formation is all arseways too. Lets get back to basics and the formation we should always play 433.

--------------Given
Herd, Collins, Dunne, Warnock
---Ireland, Jenas, Delph
Nzogbia, Bent, Gabby

we will win if we change to that ...lol

As if the previous 45 minutes of entertainment wasn't sufficient, I'm now watching Andy Townsend and Alan Curbishley gurning and stumbling through sentences attempting to offer some sort of analysis.

Just pants.

Heskey & Delph off, Jenas & Bannan on.

yep this is what needs to happen i think most of us could have done better than Heskey in that First half and Delph before he gets sent off

Why is Heskey in the team, at the very best he's a sub striker. We appear to try and shoehorn him in anywhere which defies belief. Mcleish is making me severely doubt him.

Put Gabby and Bent into the Swansea team and they would score goals for fun.

As we should be doing.

We've had some shit full backs over the years, but I struggle to think of any as utterly, utterly brainless as Hutton.

What on earth was he thinking with that challenge?

I seriously would give Bent another 10mins, take him and Heskey of, move Gabby into the centre and push more bodies into the midfield where they are strongest, let Gabby get the goals, which he will do in a more central role.

We need to shake it up some way as good as Swansea are in possession we are making them look better than they are, good job they haven't a goal scorer.
