Robinson 4
Lowton 7
Ward 7
Mee 7
Keane 7
Boyd 3
Brady 4
Hendrick 5
Barton 5
Vokes 5
Gray 8*
Arfield 5

Awful game. The midfield was dire. If we could have created one or two more chances for Gray we would have won. He was a real nuisance. If Heaton was playing I don't think we'd have conceded the third. It was the shakiest we've looked as a defensive unit all season and that is in large part due to Heaton's absence.

Said when we signed him it could take Brady most of this season to settle in and so bar the Chelsea free kick he has been woeful
Keep reading people saying we miss JBG but what has he done when he has played? He looks a Joe average championship player to me
As an attacking threat, he offers a million times more than Boyd or Arfield.

Really, thanks would have guessed Barton, was that the 1st time for Mee as captain?

No - he was captain for the Man City and Stoke games when Tom Heaton was out.

The only positive about the loss was the sound of Land of my fathers, sing with gusto by the whole Swansea support. Hats off to them for that.

Only that wasn't "land of my fathers". That's the national anthem.

It's a Max Boyce song about singing various welsh songs - including that one - and comes from some routine that he did about beating the English at rugby - and right now I don't give a F about who does it, but please, god somebody shut that Eddie Jones up by giving them a beating. If only games finished at 75 minutes............... Or maybe half time would be better after that Italy game. Come on Scotland.

Anyhow, the Jacks did themselves proud with that rendition. It's sort of easy when you score a winner in the nth minute of injury time, but there again, it sort of showed how quiet the place had been for the previous 90+3 minutes.
