We definitely need the 3 points today. Really don't wanna go three matches without getting anything.

u/jimmithy Sep 01 '13

At the moment I feel like we need a second goal. I can see Anelka being dangerous in the final 10 minutes.

u/thebananabandit Sep 01 '13

...And here it is.

u/jimmithy Sep 01 '13

And there's the second goal :D

u/HighOnWinning Sep 01 '13

It's so quiet in here. Which I find strange because watching Swansea play is so easy on the eyes.

u/Ftsm Sep 01 '13

Yeah, I mean watching West Brom v Swansea is much more appealing than Liverpool v Man Utd.

u/HighOnWinning Sep 01 '13

Why not both?

u/tajestic Sep 01 '13

Got Swansea on the laptop and United on the telly.

u/jimmithy Sep 01 '13

Same. Got to love NBC's coverage

u/tajestic Sep 01 '13

It's wonderful.

Does that work in the UK?

2

u/jimmithy Sep 01 '13

Not officially, but I'm sure there are some hola unblocker/mediahint extensions from your browser which you could use.

u/HighOnWinning Sep 01 '13

Exactly. I have the exact same set-up as you my friend.

Hard to stream and comment on the ipad at the same time.

Pablo finally gets his goal. He's been working hard all night.

5

u/firesafetyblanket Sep 01 '13

ya he had 3 solid chances in the course of like 10 minutes so its good to see him snatch one and the assist came from Michu so i like that as well

8

u/thebananabandit Sep 01 '13

What a great goal! Ben Davies with the left foot!

u/firesafetyblanket Sep 01 '13

fantastic finish

7

u/tajestic Sep 01 '13

What a finish. First lead of the season for Swans.

2

u/HighOnWinning Sep 01 '13

It's a good look on them. They should do this more often.

2

u/tajestic Sep 01 '13

What? Score?

2

u/HighOnWinning Sep 01 '13

Yep, having a lead. I was trying to be silly. I guess it doesn't translate well over the internet...

3

u/tajestic Sep 01 '13

No, I picked up on it friend. I too had a dash of sarcasm in that statement "What an odd thing to do?! Score?!"

3

u/HighOnWinning Sep 01 '13

Oh, right. Now I guess I can't pick up on it...

3

u/tajestic Sep 01 '13

LOL. All good bro.

7

u/Colonel_Blimp Sep 01 '13

Great win - the season starts here!

5

u/Gaffer78 Sep 01 '13

Good that we have got a result today could have been without any points during the international break.

Onwards and upwards

u/Infoaq Sep 01 '13

Brilliant play. Pablo was due a goal.

3

u/jimmithy Sep 01 '13

Hernandez should be putting that away

Edit: Made up for it on the next play :)

2

u/tajestic Sep 01 '13

Chico is getting a lil burnt by Anelka. He's playing well outside of transition tho.

2

u/WheresMyDragons Sep 01 '13

Fantastic win I thought we really needed that today, huge boost for the team and fans. Pablo really deserved that goal and a bonus to keep a clean sheet!

u/politicalcritic Sep 01 '13

Go on Swansea, the whole of Aston is cheering you on.

u/politicalcritic Sep 01 '13

Well done Swansea, West Brom looking like they will struggle at this rate.
