No Hibbert, no Jelavic, Distin dropped.

So far controlling midfield pretty well, but some passing play is very sloppy. At times trying to be too flashy. Apart from that fairly comfortable apart from a good Swansea effort.
 
Main fault of the Swansea is: Far too much space for Baines to get forward-at times there's acres of space for him and Pienaar to surge forward. Not closing down Fellaini or Anichebe fast enough-given too much time on the ball, and dropping off Anichebe too readily giving him space, and no end product for Swansea. Look very toothless in attack right now
 
2-0 up at half time-but Swansea are by no means out of this match at all. their defence may be shocking (obviously missing Britton), but if Swansea had done better it would've been 2-2. Once again we switch off in dangerous positions for some reason. Still need one more goal just to be sure

Came dam close-absolutely slammed against the crossbar. Swansea still in this game though and some of our players look nervous.

And Nathan Dyer-what an absolute ***. He's off after 12
 
Fellaini what the **** you mug. 6 yards out and you send it into orbit. Expect the ball to return next month. good god
 
Very good days indeed. 2nd in table, 3-0 win, new lass, new WoW expansion midnight monday, beer in fridge and a home made extra hot pizza cooking in oven. Nice.

Would now appreciate a helping hand from Liverpool and Arsenal
 
30 shots on goal-19 on target. That'll get you 3 points
 
Thought Moyes got his tactics spot on today, and the players executed the gameplan brilliantly. Found the balance between standing off and cutting off passing angles and pressing when the ball came into midfield. You'll never keep Swansea quiet completely but not many teams will come and dominate them in the way Everton did in the first 35 minutes in particular.
 
Can't believe we won last night! sounds like a good game. Haven't seen goals or highlights yet

Quite a scrappy game in truth, mate, but you lot played some nice stuff at times. We never got out of the blocks, no creativity in the middle and Fellaini was playing too deep. Unusually poor passing from us, but when you make 6 changes these things will happen. Gueye, Junior and Oviedo didn't do too much to stake a starting-XI claim anyway, looked out of their depth at times. Congratz go to Leeds though, the better team on the night deservedly won.

At the minute im disappointed, I thought it was a cup we could of got a good run on. However, I would easily substitute it for a top 6 finish in the league.
 
Most laughable rumour going round right now. We (along with chelsea) are being linked with Cardozo. Which is laughable, as he's set to sign a new contract which will have a £47 million buy out clause.
 
Well, what a funky start so far. Not used to be being this high up this early on.

dammit-nose bleeds starting again
