That's an ugly looking bench though. Anyone got any idea which international stations will be showing the game as I'm overseas and will see if I can get it on in the hotel bar.

Shocking defending for that Ayew shot - Watson walking around and Wague backing off too much. Okaka having a positive influence already...
Amazing how much better we look with Okaka on the pitch instead of Gray/Deeney, and he's neither match sharp nor brilliant.
To be fair, our improvement could have something to do with who we're playing. Let's see what we look like with Okaka in the team next match before we get too carried away.
Rachel Brown saying on BT that we have been shoddy and lacking quality, where as Swansea have shown 'signs of life'. Is this a decent summary so far??
We've become complacent, no urgency or pace in the game. Swans are huffing and puffing but not doing much. It's been an awful game.
Apart from a lovely ball from Okaka for the goal he aint done a lot in the box, been marked out of it so far. lack of match practice I expect. The 2nd half of the half has petered out a bit as a spectacle.
Good half - we've dominated really. Shame the second hasn't arrived, but unless Swansea massively turn around their attitude at HT, then we ought to run out comfortable winners.
Some quality was there opening 15 mins. Not a lot after that. Plenty of possession but no big chances. Swansea haven't been good don't know what she on about there.
Still only the 1 at half time it’s still very much anyone’s game. We need an improvement in tempo and focus second half.
well they are terrible , kind of worrying that we haven’t finished it off. We seem better, but it could be Swansea making us look good. Not sure why we are not pressing, seen Okaka on a couple of times , looking to put it into the box but nobody in there
At half time I'd have to say this is most Championship like match I've seen since promotion. We've switched off and gone home. Swansea dictating the slowest pace I've seen at this level. We're content to do little other than giveaway brainless fouls. I've no idea what Cleverley is doing but he's useless in that advanced position. Watson clearly in the shop window for the Christmas sales - heavily reduced, delivery not included. Unless we wake up the second half has shock Swansea win written all over it.
No absoloute ******** , we seem to be content to keep the ball and not press but Swansea havnt been in it at all. I think there have only been about a dozen tackles in the whole game
One of those games where a second kills it off but as long as it’s only one Swansea will have hope. We have largely been in compelete control but haven’t looked much like adding to our goal. Hopefully Silva will get the pace picked up in the second half. Expect more space as swans push for an equaliser.
If there isn’t a red card in the next five minutes to liven this shitbomb of a match up, I’m fooking off to the pub with my bezzie mate, Rel Certs
