Thanks @SaintRam for keeping those of us not able to see the game updated

Are you at home? You can pay the equivalent of £5 to watch on RamsTV I think?

[SaintRam]

Swansea work a good driven cross from the left which is punched out well by Roos. 

Swansea come back a couple of times in the seconds after but dont make it back into the penalty area. It eventually rolls out for a goal kick. 

[RadioactiveWaste]

Roos makes a save

2 minutes injury time

[SaintRam]

A shocking Keogh pass creates a 3 on 3 for Swansea, but they sky a 20 yard shot high over the bar. 

[Van der MoodHoover]

Does a 3 man midfield of hudds Evans and Dowell work? Or do we need a bit more pace in there....

[SaintRam]

Been all Swansea since the penalty save.

A lackluster shot from distance drifts into Roos' arms.

 

HT 0-0

All my money is going into our luxury home in Spain ATM.  Soon, though, cheers

[SaintRam]

Twan Scheepers goes out onto the pitch to keep Waghorn's spirits up.

 

Outside of the penalty, no real chances for either side that half.

[Ramshackled]

I hope this isn't going to be one of those games where we get mugged 1-0

 

[GenBr]

I will take 0-0 at half time even if we should be ahead, but i think Cocu needs to make some changes at half time. Id definitely consider not using two holding midfielders here.

[SaintRam]

Interesting penalty trivia:

100% penalty record under Lampard, including shootouts. We've just missed the first penalty we've had since he left ? 

[HorsforthRam]

Lacklustre. Not getting players around the box. Suffering from a lack of space in the opposition half. Penalty mirrored the half

[Dimmu]

Thanks for the updates  @SaintRam! Really, really appreciated.

I'm off at the halftime, so need to do updates for me. I guess you have wider audience though, like @ramit and maybe some peeping tom's as well.

Lawrence’s foot is a bit worrying, feel like he’s had this problem for a while now.

Felt it v Huddersfield, saw him holding it in the warm up and trying different boots and looked to be causing him issues again during the game.

Decent game, Swansea slightly the better side, so far. Rooney and bielik will walk into this side, Evans and jozefzoon are bench players.

Could just be bad bruising that's a bit swollen ?

Crowd needs to settle down a bit. It ain’t helping shouting to get it forward all the time- creates panic. We’ve been pretty good on the whole, fans just need to be patient, we’re playing the possession game well and have been the better side- we really should be in front. 

The reason we’re not is we’ve been incredibly wasteful. Not just the pen which you’ve gotta score, but also other chances where poor decision making/ touches have let us down. Feel our lack of creativity from wide and midfield that we failed to address in the window is being exposed too, we don’t look to have much up our sleeve in and around the box. Evans and huddlestone really doesn’t work and restricts us going forward, Bogle has once again done his and Josefzoon a job as well while the latter may as well be having a cuppa.

Need to be a lot more careful and alert across the pitch too, we’ve seemed half asleep and lax at times in defence Where stupid touches/mistake have put us in trouble. Need to cut that out as we’ve been the better side here and need to get all three points, not hand them the game by us being wasteful in the final third and making stupid mistakes at the back.

[DesertRam]

We need to change something here,

Shinnie for Evans and Paterson for Josefzoon

 

[jimbo jones]

Got Jamie Paterson spanking one in the top corner in the 89th minute all over this ??
