You would have thought that other managers would know from the kick-off TP's tactics, particularly away from home. But does TP have a plan B in the we fall behind? Doesn't look like it on this showing. 16% possession ! Even Cardiff have managed 37% (1st. half) at Spurs who are miles better that Swansea! Lets hope for a change of tactics in the second half.

If we average 20% possession, that mean the opposition have the ball for 72 mins and we have it for 18! No wonder we lose. Crazy that we have a massive squad with dozens of midfielders yet noone who can keep the ball, let alone pass it. Unfortunately, once we go a goal down, that's it. Edited by cpj (02 Mar 2014 5.18pm) Spot on. If we don't up the possession in the 2nd half it will be the same as the 1st. Need to sub either KG or Ledley now, keeping one sub for the last 20 mins. 7 defensive outfield players against a struggling Swansea is bizarre.

We can't repeat this performance in 2 half and hopefully Swansea think it is game-over. But no one except JS has delivered and we can't blame it on tiredness. Come on Eagles, show us your South London pride.

To be honest the goal was class and we couldn't do much about it cut us apart.

I think we'll come out having a real go second half. I'll reserve my judgement til the end of the game. I didn't expect us to win this but as usual I think we planned for a 0-0 HT score line which didn't happen. NOw Pulis needs to be much more positive. 45 mins of extreme effort and attacking play needed. COYP!

Problem with Pulis is he cannot play a team that does not have a "target man" up front. Top flight football in England got away from this mentality 15+ years ago, why cant he ?

We have already established that we are incapable of getting upset results against the big sides (think we're probably the only team which hasn't recorded a surprise result this season*) and we don't look capable of too many points on the road either. In other words - screwed.

Looks like Murray punched the dug-out first half through sheer boredom...
