You certainly edged it on the day. Wanted it more.

Although anyone thinking a one off match proves who is better is crazy. Didn't Reading beat Liverpool twice last year? Do you think you are better than Man City because you beat them?

The final league standings will prove who is the better team. But we didnt deserve to win yesterday and your desire saw you home. No arguments there.

Have to agree with Carl, I thought that in the second half we passed the ball about very well.

But at least a Swansea Fan has the decency to tell it how it is. Don't think Swansea look half the team they did last year, wonder if the Euro adventure or high influx of players has contributed to that?

So a new username is all it took to regress to your former self. Shame. You were a good poster for a while.

I was eating my fingers first 15 mins, thought we were poor and Swansea looked the side most likely to win. But as the game went on, City got into it and start to construct some play.

Swansea showed signs now and again that you cant just sit back, they did show some great passing at times, its just at the final 3rd, just couldn't make any thing happen with it.

One thing i have noticed with Cardiff, half time they come out and play better nearly every game and it showed against Swansea.

But in all honestly, it wasn't a pretty game. Think that showed on MOTD. First half was what, 2 mins long? :P

In the first half we let them have the ball in their defence and the number of diagonal balls that just carved us open was a bit uncomfortable for me.

In the second half we hunted in packs high up the field and forced the jacks to rush their passes. There was a good spell where they couldnt get out of their half.

We played very well, im not buying this jacks played poor nonsense. We didnt allow them play their own game.

We weren't good. Haven't been for a number of weeks, not even in the 4-0 thrashing of Sunderland did we play as well as we usually do.

Anyone who wins while the other plays bad can say "we made them play bad" however we didnt even play well in the first 15 mins when you think we did. We rarely play well with Michu up front and yesterday was no different. Hope he learns soon.

Swansea are the worst side we have had at the CCS this season, prob the worst we played since going up, I will be very surprised if they manage to stay up this year. 5 wins from the last 25 league games, they must be getting worried after having 2 lucky seasons, they been found out big time

Cheers 6 Bysedd!

Honest opinions, are you a little worried what the league might entail for you this season? Your patient passing game can work but you need that cutting edge up front to make the most of the opportunities you get which you seemed to lack. Michu tended to drop to deep and from what I've seen of Bony so far I'm not sure he's a good alternative or partner. How have you rated him?

And following on from my last paragraph I think we'll be safe but one of my concerns for City is our finishing power. Hopefully Cornelius will provide some answers for us on that front though once he's back fit.

At the end of the game we were all celebrating and to make themselves better, the Swans kept pointing at the Malaysian flag :lol: :lol:

Can't beat us on the pitch so laugh at us what is happening off the pitch... :thumbright: Just like old times

Swansealad69 today has proven us right as well. They couldn't even give it a couple of weeks and their true bitter attitude and resentment is showing through only days after the game. Shocking.

They are not happy, we've beaten them three times out of the last four, we have the upper hand, Cardiff City number one team in Wales :ayatollah:
