Only rest players that really need to be rested, I'd say.

Bedders looks ok

This performance - and to some extent the last few performances - has shown us that the first team have well and truly clicked, adding power, pace and movement to the possession and passing-accuracy game. The second string substitute configurations however, are not quite there yet.

It has seemed a curiously long drawn out game, despite the nature of the first half.

There's no way we were going to maintain the pace and passing of the first half, much as we would have loved to see that.

Gavin "Gordon Banks" Bazunu.

Settle it down lads.

Purple football from Saints, even allowing for Swansea's limitations as opposition.

Scintillating football at times.

KWP on fire.

Best response possible. That will crush any remaining Swansea morale.

YAAAAY

This is a recurrent theme: We dominate, lose concentration and get suckered on the break. Game after game.

No worries. Regroup and cut them to pieces.

^ yep

Coruscating football at times.

Should have had a goal out of that passage, either a pen or open play.

This is marvellous stuff!

wake up call

This is Rolls-Royce stuff at times.

Smallbone!!!

Did he get a yellow?

This weekend is the potential fulcrum of the season, after which we cement our place in the automatic promotion spots and never leave them.

^ Happy to see us lose our "nice boys" tag.

Well, the St Mary's hoodoo has been well and truly exorcised.
