    But Gylfi Sigurdsson works his socks off to get the ball back. Almost time...

    Andre Ayew buys a free-kick and eats up the clock. What a signing he looks to be for free. Swansea lose the ball cheaply though and invite some pressure...

    "Rooney needs to be sharper. You've got to pick a corner and get a shot off there. But he's not been clinical today."

    Chance! Wayne Rooney gets clear after a sensational touch to bring the ball down, but he hesitates and Ashley Williams again makes up the ground to make a great tackle.

    Rooney wants a penalty, no chance. Rooney took too long to shoot. He just doesn't look sharp...

    Boof! Into Marouane Fellaini, he gets a header down but Jack Cork mops it up well, hammering the ball clear.

    Last three minutes...

    "If this was Manchester United under Sir Alex Ferguson, you'd be expecting them to win it 3-2. We're not thinking that about this team. Swansea haven't been at their fluent best, yet they're winning."

    The home fans are loving this. Quite right too. Swansea look a very good side on today's form.

    "Memphis looked really good in the first 20 minutes, but he's been quiet in the second half when they've really needed him to get on the ball and make something happen."

    I can't recall Memphis Depay doing anything in the second half.

    Marouane Fellaini hasn't caused any trademark havoc just yet as we tick towards full-time. Eight minutes left for the Swans to see out. New boy Eder looks like he will cause similar problems to Bafe Gomis.

    There is something reassuring about the fact that the long ball still survives as a tactic at the highest levels. Manchester United know how to use it, but can Swansea defend it?The hosts piece together a neat move but it ends with an offside flag aimed at Jonjo Shelvey. 

    Bafetimbi Gomis gets a 10-minute rest, replaced by Eder.

    Both Swansea's goals have come from attacks down their right, an area they have been using frequently as an attacking force.

    The graphic below shows how heavily-weighted Swansea's attacks have been in the second half, compared to Manchester United (right).

    Marouane Fellaini (DM/CM/AM/SS/CF) is straight up front, with Wayne Rooney dropping back into the hole. Rooney just doesn't seem to prosper as the lone forward. Interesting deadline day ahead perhaps at Old Trafford.

    Foul throw! Everyone loves to see that at the top level, as Matteo Darmian fails to throw the ball in correctly.

    Here comes Marouane Fellaini - he replaces Ander Herrera. It's going big.

    "Manchester United have got to bring on Marouane Fellaini in the next five minutes. They've got to have that physical presence up top."

    Control. It's all about control Rob (I imagine).I agree with you though, not the most attacking change you could make. 

    Marouane Fellaini is on next. Plan C.
