A#se licking Swansalona ... embarassing

Hard to say it, but They've been excellent tonight, it's hardly surprising they're getting praise. Crowd have been excellent too. Monk has really invigorated the place.

Townsend is and has always been a terrible Commentator.

arse licking them cos they are playing really well? what's wrong with that?

We have a winner.

So many obsessed Cardiff fans, used to be the other way around but a quick browse of this forum and it becomes painfully clear that some Cardiff fans care more about them than they do us. Pathetic.

They have defended excellently tonight against a team who are third in Serie A, what do you want them to say?

blah blah blah

What do you expect? We have just played one of Europes big boys off the park. Thats where the "light years" view point comes from too.

Tis level of performance is exactly what we have come to expect, the last 12 months has been dire. Unfortunately for you, Laudrup was sacked prior to your match and you were first in line to be put to the sword.

Monk is everything this club has needed for the best part of a year.

Most important stat is at the bottom of your statistics. Got to take your chances, I think you'll regret not scoring tonight in the second leg.

Certainly is, and what a superb stat it is too.

No away goal conceded meaning any score draw is now also good enough for us to go through.

However the stats above the most important stat show how dominant we were. We were superb throughout.

Dont think we will "regret" not scoring as it isnt something we chose not to do. We did everything we should have done, but our efforts were saved well. Now for the 2nd leg

Yes they're nice stats but it means nothing in the match outcome. I feel you will rue those missed opportunities in the next leg however as they are a different side at home. You're going to be up against it. Good luck.

Of course we are going to be up against it, they are a top Serie A side with the likes of Pandev and Higuain.

However the stats above played a major part in why we were not beaten.

The ball is "in play" normally for around 70 mins a match I read somewhere. 69% possession or whatever it was for us tonight, meaning we only gave Napoli the ball for 21 mins in total of the match. Thats significant. When we had it, we were dangerous as the shots and shots on target tell you. When they had it we snuffed them out pretty well with them only managing 1 shot on target which came in the first 5 mins of the match.

There is no way we will "rue" those chances. Its not as if we missed open goals, their keeper did well.

What did you do, sprint home on the final whistle to get on this forum?.

Didn't see it all, but what I did see Swansea looked quality.

Possession means bugger all. We had 65% v Wigan and 35% v man city. The only stats that count are number of goals scored. Napoli were below par and Swansea up for it. Get over yourself roathie. I reckon your dingo and koala are in for it next week.

Yes that's very nice, but like I said in the second leg being up against it you may rue not scoring in the first leg. Just a common sense assumption playing against a top serie A side. Good luck.

Of course we are going to be up against it in the second leg. Nobody has suggested otherwise.

but that has no baring on how well we played today, which is what is being discussed. And we played extremely well.

As i said we wont "rue" the missed chances as there isn't really much we could do otherwise. Their keeper played well and made some decent stops.

To rue something - means you would regret something. Regretting something - means you did something wrong. I.e missing a penalty, giving away a penalty, missing an open goal etc etc

We did nothing wrong tonight.

Yes that's very nice you played well, just think looking back after the second let out there, you may rue a few chances you had tonight. E.g Ashley Williams header, Chico header. Both goal scoring chances which were poorly executed resulting in an easy save by the goalkeeper. I don't think what I'm saying isn't accurate, do you?

Yep I do. You are saying we will regret the chances we missed, and im saying we wont. Chico and Ashley Williams are center backs not known for their goalscoring prowess, in fact Ashley Williams hasnt scored for years.

To rue something would suggest we should have done better. I dont think we "should" have done better in any of the situations we were in tonight.

So if you lose the second leg, you won't look back to tonight and think of chances you could have scored?

Ok Roathy, lets agree to disagree.

Absolutely not.

I cant think of one chance we had in which I thought "why did he do that?!"...

Each chance was executed as well as expected and they were superbly stopped on occasions by their keeper(s). As a result, to rue any chance would be to rue the ability of the opposition - which i dont think anybody really does... Do they?

Absolutely not.

So Ashley Williams' chance first half headed over the bar was the best he could have done? Come on ffs he had his head in his hands! Chico had a free header too from a De Guzman free kick, he looks at the linesman expecting a flag, that's how poor he executed it. He was disappointed with his attempt.

You can't argue that seriously.

Absolutely not.

I didn't expect him to score, put it that way. If it had been Bony then yes. Ashley Williams hasnt scored for years for a reason.

De Guzman had a free kick from 25 yards and missed. So what? Are you serious who in their right minds EXPECTS to score 25 yard free kicks?

To rue a chance would be to expect to score. There is no chance we had tonight where I "expected" to score or felt hard done by that we didnt. The keeper pulled off some good saves and the rest were decent efforts.

Well done Swansea, done Wales proud. Ben and Ashley will be better Wales players after this run in prem and Europa league. Risa above the hate!!!!

Its amazing that Ben Davies hadnt played a professional match 2 years ago and wasnt anywhere near the team. Now he has players like Champions League winner Goran Pandev in his pocket and Ashley Williams who we signed from Stockport County snuffed out Gonzalo Higuain for the whole match.

Superb. And you are roght about rise above the hate, anyone trying to put a negative spin on this match is utterly insane

Absolutely not.

Re-read what I said, I didn't say De Guzman should have scored, I said Chico should have scored from a free kick taken by him. I don't know why I'm bothering, You are blinded by your own opinion.

I dont know why you are bothering because you are talking nonsense thats why.

I can quite categorically tell you that no Swansea fan and probably no Swansea player will look back at tonight and "rue" anything, regardless of the result in Italy.

Superb performance, superb result, superb night for Welsh sport.

alright roathy, ill take that as a strange form of acceptance that you mis-read what I said.

Yes you played well, got a clean sheet, had good stats except for putting away some chances that you may rue after the second leg. I'm just putting myself in your shoes if it was Cardiff. Good luck.

Whether I misread that exact point or not is irrelevant, the point is the same. You are saying we will rue tonight, im telling you that the notion is ridiculous.

But yes I agree, great performance and great result.

I'd disagree. Three jacks have already text or spoken to me and said they are worried that Swansea may regret not scoring after such a dominant performance.

Sooo, if you lose 1-0 in Naples with little to no clear cut chances of your own, you won't think 'what if' to the chances you had tonight to take an advantage going into an away leg? Come off it will you, now your just being silly.

Yes you played well and had nice stats.
