"It is great for the public here at Sunderland to see us," said manager Brendan Rodgers. "They must have been wondering what this team everyone is talking about are all about and now they have seen"

every manager that goes to swansea and stays to long turns into a arsehole in the end.

This is my favourite from a sunderland fan
"I'm actually now retiring from watching football now that I've seen Swansea in the flesh. There's nothing more for me to see"

In fairness if Swansea are going to give away 2 goals and 3 points in the same manner as Saturday I would imagine that there are several Premiership teams eager to 'entertain' them

Just goes to show how arrogant some "new" managers get when they to the Premiership. I remember Phil Brown had a similar mindset when he took Hull up.
The rest, as they say, is history!

Credit where it's due with regards to their passing and retaining possession but the lack of cutting edge up front will cost them.
It's a bit like chatting up a fit girl when you are out on the piss, taking her back home and then unable to get it up. All the previous work you have done counts for feck all if you don’t get your dick wet.

My Faivorate was the "give Sunderland credit" it's like being patronised by a horse

There's only one statistic that matters a toss in football and that's the score at the end of the game. You can have 90% possession and make a million passes in 90 minutes but if you don't create anything and score yet concede goals it counts for nowt. I'm a qualified coach and I get a little sick and very cynical virtue of people telling me what wonderful passing football certain teams play (and not just Swansea). Even Leighton James conceded two seasons back after our 2-1 win that when you delved into the possession stats, of Swanseas 60%, 70% of that was in their own half. Guess what? Most teams will be very glad to let them get on with it in their own half of the field. There's more than one way to skin the proverbial cat and in the end of the days professional football is a results driven business. No end product = no success.

They've become quite arrogant down there. The biased West-Walian orientated media in Wales have hyped them up as "Swansealona" etc etc. What's worse is that a lot of their fans asctually believe this and don't take it with a pinch of salt, so they genuinely believe that they are the new Barcelona!! It's amazing how seriously they take themselves down there. Some of the comments from Brenda are comedy gold, and show how deluded he's rapidly becoming! I think we should sit back and enjoy them making muppets out of themselves!!
