I can’t be too critical on anyone due to the weather but why are we not putting in any fucking crosses? In this weather and with the pitch in this condition, surely that’s better than passing it sideways and backwards all the time..?

The pitch is rubbbish especially in Swansea half . Hope we can move the ball much quicker after swapping sides

Swansea are absolute pony.

Hey, we’ve got the wind with us in the second half! Lots of pot shots please. Flappyhanski will parry one in.

Our passing game isn't going to work on this slow pitch. Need to get players round Llorente and lump the ball into him. Son and Alli love a flick on.

Yeah - whip it in hard and early. Nightmare for the defenders to have to try and deal with their clearances.

We really should have scored another while we had the ascendancy. Swansea were there to be put away.

The game is pretty much shit. But considering circumstances if it finish like that I take it all night long.

Because our two fullbacks who In seasons past gave us the width but Tripper and Davies don’t so we come inside or back

Terrible conditions making for a poor half of football. Not easy on the eye at all.

Hopefully better to come as players dry off, pitch gets drained and weather eases off for second half

I can't understand why we haven't been taking pops from distance, we have players capable of long range screamers and in these conditions against their keeper it's basically a given that one will go in.

Tippy tappy in this weather is only going to benefit Swansea.

We started well but faded towards the end of the half but given the conditions I think we have played ok, need to improve second half though.

We should just go 442, hoof it to Llorente and hope for flick ons to Son. Get some shots in as well. We'll have to go Brexit for the rest of this game, can't pass it about in this stuff.

72% possession and we've had one more attempt than them. We're poncing about with the ball in midfield, backwards and sideways, instead of getting wide and sticking it on Llorente's bonce, degree in quantum physics not required!
