Swansea (QF) Post Match thread

I'm having fun in my WhatsApp group with United and Liverpool supporting colleagues. I sent them this.

Nunca me voy a cansar de decirlo. Este equipo nunca se rinde y siempre pelea hasta el final. A Wembley! //I'll never get tired of saying this: this team won't give up, and we'll fight on 'til the end. Onwards to Wembley! #SemiFinals #FACup C'mon, City!

This "City were so lucky to win that game" from BT etc, is a gross exaggeration:

Shots: Swansea 5-22 City
Corners: Swansea 1-13 City

And Ederson didn't make a save. Again.

You're missing the point mate.
Your stats are usually the case when giant killing acts occur.
The favourites miss a hatful of chances, don't get the rub off the green and the underdogs break away and score with the few chances they get.
That would have happened tonight, Swansea would have been very lucky but then we got two goals that should not have been ( goal 2 never a pen and goal 3 offside).
 
That was a huge, huge result for this team and some of the players in it.

Some of our fans are so, so simple minded though.

Slating Sane's performance is just madness. He literally had Delph planted 10 yards behind him stationary, which allowed Swansea to park two players in front of him.Laporte also looked a mess until he left the field...no coincidence there. It was a shocking, shocking showing from Delph and Zinchenko literally put him to shame and did to him tonight what Kelechi did to Bony. We won't see Delph again this season methinks.

I thought Gundogan did his usual Samir Nasri impression of doing the bare minimum until the game turned, he really is a player who looks good when we're playing good and invisible otherwise.

What a performance from Bernardo and the subs, fantastic.

Fair play to Bersant Celina. I felt he was offloaded too soon and unfairly at the time and his comments and attitude we great. He said he wanted to show us what we missed out on and fair play to him for getting such a good finish. He's going to be some player.

Their manager is also an absolute class act, those comments after the game were great and he stopped BT from saying it wasn't a penalty.
 
Our penalty was a pen BTW, yes the defender did touch the ball but he didn't get enough on it to disposses Sterling, then he brought Sterling down with the follow through. There are examples of this in FIFA match guidence for refs.

I’ve not seen their manager’s comments, what did he say?
