Tough, we're finding it very difficult to get hold and keep the ball. Loving the fullbacks though, proper team players the pair of them

I know someone else mentioned it, but it's amazing see how strong our bench is. Fantastic.

Given how well we're doing in getting the ball back, it's a shame that Bannan and Ireland are both playing really quite poorly when in posession.

No hiding place for anyone that doesn't put in a shift now. The bench has options on it and players hungry to grab their chance.

The irony is our 3 best passers seem to be mis hitting every pass.

I wouldn't go that far. It's encouraging but still contains four young lads who have 20 minutes worth of Premier League experience between them.

Just had a look at Wellbeck's dive in the Man Utd game. It's blatant.

The Swansea player got hurt there because he bottled it against Ron.

He has muscles where his arms should be.

1-0 up but not playing well. Very poor in midfield thus far and Bent has hardly had a kick. Daft yellow from Clark. His decision making needs to improve. No need to try and win the ball there

I think that the pace we're playing at is meaning we're losing it too readily. We need to be able to zip it around more quickly and accurately. Kea is trying to calm things down but the pace is catching him out too. I reckon we need at least two to win this.

That is an absolutely tame free kick from Bannan. No danger at all.
