Korey Smith says that the performance against Cardiff City was the best that the Swans have out in for a while but concedes – as he has to – that the only stat that mattered at the end of the day was that they scored one goal and we scored none.

It's baffling why people think that was a great performance? Soft goal conceded so early, totally inept for the rest of the first half and then a bit more urgency in the last 20 minutes against a solid defence. We were unlucky not to score with the one off the post but I think it's a stretch to call it our best performance.

I agree.
 
It's all relative.

Mostly shit is better than total shit I suppose.

I can't be arsed to read any player or manager 'positive' drivel after that, but he hasn't claimed it was a good performance I hope.
 
We've been lucky for weeks and shite with it yesterday was another example of that
 
If you piece together the first half vs Bristol and the 2nd half vs Cardiff you get something like 40 shots 20 corners and zero goals.

In which of the last six matches did we play better? I do agree with you but I think that we have been mediocre for a while now. There's just no urgency in the mid-field play that gives the forwards any opportunities.
 
Glyn has a point. Title says our best performance. Our best performance may still be terrible, just not as terrible as usual.

We've had a hand full of games this season were we've really played well the rest have been a grind and some luck. I think to say the Cardiff game was our best performance for a while is being disingenuous and deflective of Cooper... We are only as good as our last game.
