Pelle says "Anything you can do, I can do better" Outstanding goal! Davis so unlucky there as well - almost a brilliant third.
-
Frustrating goal to concede - but what a touch and finish from Austin. Brilliant.
-
"Who the f**k is Pochettino, and the Saints go marching ON ON ON!"
-
Clyne really needs to work on his crossing. There's really no point in him overlapping as much as he does if he can't put in a decent delivery at the end of it.
-
I like Mane so far but he does go down far too easily, and dramatically.
-
Dammit. Just realised we've got Tvvattenburg reffing today.
-
Great move to set up Pelle. There's a goal coming soon.

Tadic off the post!

Amazing, awesome, wonderful - and any other superlative you want to add to that. Feels so good to beat Arsenal for once. They are one of those teams that we just never seem to beat, no mater how well we play or how poor they are at the time. Cracking end-to-end game. This team is definitely more exciting to watch than last season. Long may it continue.

Pelle should have scored. Free header.
-
Exquisite counter attack from Saints there. Dare I say it - this is a more exciting team to watch than last season.
-
Never, ever a foul on Wilshere there. Terrible refereeing.
-
What a game this is!!!!
-
How do I make that bigger?

Post-Match Reaction: Swansea 0-1 SAINTS

As some have already mentioned - he looked a bit of a tool with his OTT celebration when he thought he had scored last season (can't remember which game it was) only to realise it had been disallowed and he was still celebrating when play resumed. -
Just need a Citeh win now - to give us a (slim, admittedly) chance of going top next weekend - and it will be the perfect weekend.

Cork wasn't really in the game today and was rightly substituted. -

Very happy with the three points. The sending off drastically changed the game in our favour. Swansea can't complain because both yellow cards were warranted, although we were perhaps a little fortunate that Fonte stayed on the pitch given his wild swing after he had already been cautioned. Second half we took full advantage and really dominated the game. Swansea defended resolutely and for a while I didn't think we would get the breakthrough. I thought it was a very professional performance in the end, considering we were being swamped a little in the first half. Great to see Vic get a goal. On current form I think he should be in the starting eleven. 2nd in the table - I've got a nosebleed! -
Getting closer.

Why? Monk has to decide how to reorganise his team now they are a man down. Whatever he decides, we need to change our tactics accordingly.
-
Will be interesting to see what tactical changes Monk will make at HT now, and how we react to that.
-
What was Yoshi's booking for? Dissent?
-
That was the easiest hat-trick Costa will ever score - the Swansea defence left him completely un-marked for each of his goals. If they give Pelle even half the time and space they left for Costa, we should score at least a couple ourselves.

Just watched MOTD... Newcastle were utterly woeful. Shocking play from their defenders for all of the goals. Collocini could and should have stopped the second goal if he wasn't too busy looking at the linesman trying to claim an imaginary offside. Krul can consider himself lucky not to have been sent off for clotheslining Shane Long. yet another blatantly obvious penalty decision not given. Lost count of how many we had last season and our bad luck with that seems to be continuing into this one. Won at a canter and should have had more, but like a few others have said: it's difficult to get too carried away when the opposition were so poor they may as well have just walked the ball into the net for us. Next week's game will be a much tougher test for the team.
