And if you're playing a striker, they really have to impact the game.
And they didn't really today, did they?

He's not quite sure how that went today.
A 3 minute 41 blitz from United.
Well in some ways Swansea did a decent job for most of the game.
They kept possession and they tried to stay in the game, they were solid and everything else but there wasn't enough goal for it today for me and that was a problem.
He needs to do some work in the transfer market and he needs to lift that changing room because
It doesn't matter how well you reflect on the game, you think you did OK, 4-0 is 4-0.
So on Monday morning, Paul's got a job to do to lift the players.
He's gone, the big star.
So someone needs to come in and he needs to kind of reflect on this performance, take the positives out of it and try and move on.
Well, when you go man-to-man, you're looking at your first two or three.

But your full fifth, sixth marker, if you're up against the size of Man Utd, you're going to probably need to go zonal a little bit because you probably haven't got the manpower to deal with the height that they have in the side.
Pogba is just absolute oceans of space, though.
So if you're going to go zonally, you've got to go and attack the ball.
And you see the guys talking on here week in, week out about that.

Swansea got themselves in at half-time.
