Do we have a winner in " must win bingo " ? . Cuddly toy and a fondue set to that man As in we have to win this game. It’s a must win six pointer. A bit of a double cliche but in this case probably statistically accurate looking at the teams around us. So if we draw we are down ? Err no if we draw we are still 4 points clear of palace.. so patently not must win |

At present he is an excellent championship player . Not sure if he will ever kick in from that . If we go down we will come straight back up imo if we keep hold of Ince etc. If we stay up I think he will become a "squad player" No Ince plays for us, he’s in the Premier League So I'm talking nonsense ? |

Bad day at the office today. Very frustrating but hopefully it will drive the players to a better performance against Palace. Now this is a must win. Can’t wait... Exactly my thoughts and I think we should have gone 3-5-2 for the last 30 minutes |

Don't think we played badly but a lot of it was slow and ponderous.
Swansea were fucking awful though, it's two points dropped for me.

Pritchard has over taken mooy for me as the most creative player And Wagner takes him off to be replaced by his big buddy, still shaking my head now! I'm happy to listen to constructive criticism, but when you get this childish nonsense (big buddy) from some prick who was obsessed with Danny Ward, all you can think is why do I read this shit; should I have more to my life 😂😂😂 |

No Ince plays for us, he’s in the Premier League So I'm talking nonsense ? Cuddly toy! Ince is a young player with scope to improve. Look at lots of players in a similar position. They may progress, they may not. But you cannot say that he’s Championship. Pritchard was discarded by Spurs because he was ‘Championship’. Cliche bingo. |

Not sure why Depotrie wasn't on waaay earlier given most of our attacks ended with a cross despite the fact only Mounie and half the Swansea team were in the box. We created very few clear chances despite all the possession but didn't seem to try much different. Frustrating game but being annoyed with a premier league point is still a position I never thought I'd find myself in!

One of those games where we were never going to score. On a side note, I was cringing at the way Swansea celebrated at the end. Fans of a fairly established premier league club doing a conga for drawing at Huddersfield without having a single shot. On or off target. Dear me. |

But you cannot say that he’s Championship. Pritchard was discarded by Spurs because he was ‘Championship’. Cliche bingo. I like Ince... but are you saying based on this seasons displays that playing at the level he has so far he will be a first team mainstay in the premier league ? Can't see it myself. And he's already had two ( I think ) spells in the premier league which have ended with him joining championship clubs. As for " young player with scope to improve " have you seen how old he is ? He has torn up the championship and struggled in the premier league. It's a massive step up it happens. Pritchard was " discarded " by Spurs cos he wasnt good enough for Spurs. And he still isn't |

Not once did Mounie get a ball to feet centrally...always out wide for a cross. A great performance spoiled by a poor result. I cant think of a more comprehensive display without winning. If it was a boxing match it would have been stopped in the 6th round. 81% possession....20 plus shots and 12 corners. Maddening. I'll be honest I thought we were pretty poor . We didn't test the keeper anywhere near enough . Don't be fooled by stats Swansea deserved the point imo Disagree....i thought there was some great movement, passing and particularly ball-control. We hardly ever gave it away. Swansea were clever but no way did they deserve a point. It was a battering but we were simply not incisive enough. We needed a break in the box but it always fell to a Swansea man. |

Another one here questioning the subs. Taking Pritchard off is absolutely laughable Starting to see where some people are coming from with regards to Mooy slowing us down. Too laboured. I'd honestly bench him for Williams While thinking somewhat the same, perhaps he was feeling the effects of his injury a bit and to protect him it was safer to take him off. So perhaps there was a non-laughable reason behind it. Yes, perhaps so but its not something DW mentioned afterwards (I don't think, which normally he does) |

They put a bank of five and a bank of three in front of us and we found it difficult to create enough meaningful moments . I think we would have won if 11 v 11 .. we looked like England playing San Marino |

we were 3 pts above the relegation zone before the swansea game, we now are likely to be 4 pts clear with one less game to play, It could be worse. Town were in an unfamiliar position - trying to break down a deep defensive block. Who would have thought we would have been frustrated by an established Premier League team defending for their lives in March.  |

I genuinely think Town would have won a proper battle. |

Swansea were organised but make no mistake given the gravitas of our position in this’ Premier league , truly awful from us , yeah we can ponderously bring the ball into the opposition last third but the final ball or lack of it was the most disappointing thing

Really dont understand Wagner's logic of taking Pritchard off and leaving Ince on. I've stopped feeling hopeful when he gets the ball now, he always seems to make the wrong decision and his shooting is nowhere to be seen.
It just needed a simple 2 yard pass to an unmarked Mounie 8 yards out and we'd be sitting pretty right now. Instead he chose to shoot. Badly.

It was a surprising substitution, but difficult to slag off if you don't know the reason? Pritchard shaking his head in disbelief tells you he wasn’t injured or that he wanted to come off, shocking decision. In that case I'd agree with you - last person I'd take off if he was fit, but let's wait and see if that is the case. I was surprised when Ince took that free kick outside the box - I'd give the majority of them to Pritchard. |

Bizarre. He still did far more than any of the wingers. |

Really unlucky not to score today and the first goal could easily have opened the floodgates. Swansea did what they had to do, defend well and hope for a bit of luck.
On another day one of Mounié's three efforts,Ince's header, Schindler's header or Malone's chance goes in and we end up winning comfortably. Just unfortunate that today wasn't another day.

Chelsea probably had 50 crosses cleared and didn't score from one of them v Palace. They should have won 6-0 mind, instead scraped home 2-1 with a couple of jammy own goals. We should be so lucky! |
