Rodon is utter rubbish, by far the worst defender we've got.

Anyway, winning when not playing very well is fine by me.

Onwards!

You thought we started well ?

I'd be surprised if many agreed with that, I thought we were bloody atrocious.


From kick off, yes I thought we started well, didn't last long.

Agree, for about a half a minute of the first half we were all over them.

The first half was painful to watch, picking out the worst Swans player would be difficult, but fair play to Bidwell, he made a real effort to be that man.


I thought Celina took it by a mile!

Connor Roberts was by some distance the worst player in our back line, but obviously it's Bidwell.


So true. Roberts and Dyer seem to want to go forward holding hands than one bombing on for the other to play in.

Bidwell set up the winner and didn't give away a moronic penalty.

This just proves the point I made the other day. Bidwell isn't a great player, but he's not a bad one either. However, his very averageness will make him a target even when he doesn't deserve to be, like today.


Astute comments as usual Doc. Especially liked the one on “his very averageness”.

They had us sussed from the kick off. Good scouting and tactics. Forced us to play in areas we didn’t want to play and picked us off. First half both full backs got exposed.

Bringing Byers on and the half time talk made for a different game and our equaliser made that talk easier. Goals change games and if they had gone in 2 up which I couldn’t have complained about it would have been hard to come back from.

Cooper reminds me of Laudrup- adapts in the second half to what the opposition has done to us as opposed to monk who set us up well to start but couldn’t react to opposition changes.

Spot on post, i'm a little concerned the way Cooper set us up first half and waited until HT to switch. Its obvious that Grimes & MVDH have been targeted pushing us out wide where we are weaker. Bidwells distribution is appalling and i struggle to see why we spent on him at the moment unless Cooper thinks his crossing will benefit. We need another way to get out from the back, dropping into the penalty area from goal kicks is putting us under pressure and at the moment ends up a lot of the time giving it away down the flanks. Hitting BB long was the preferred get out of jail option today but no one told Lulu or Celina who were passengers in the 1st half.

I don't understand the criticism he gets.. he's a fullback that defends well.. he's not great going forward, but he did get an assist today


3 assists in 3 games, i'll take that from a FB not great at going forward

He’s very decent going forward when the acting winger has the skill and vision to put him through on the overlap. He was unlucky another cross didn’t get put away. Connor and Nath seem to run in tandem, like they’re chatting as the game goes on. Poor on that side til Andre Ayew came on. His quality stuck out like a sore thumb on that pitch today. Imperious.

Would like to see Byers get an extended chance at 10 right now. He may not look as fancy or as classy as some but I don't see a lot of end product from the likes of Celina atm


Byers looks class to me and has a great career ahead of him.
Good on the ball with an excellent shot on him. Never looks rushed. Always a sign of a top player.
If we don't get promoted we will be pulling in big money for him.

When Jenkins signed mcbernie,fulton,Byers and james.
I give him a lot of stick.
But now I hold my hand up and admit I was wrong.
Still don't think those players were worth the money we got for them.
