What were the highlights of the Stoke City vs. Swansea match?
Good win that for Stoke City tonight and some terrific action coming your way this weekend from the EFL Championship. London Derby on Friday night as Brentford face Fulham from seven. Two big clubs going at it Saturday lunchtime. Wolves and Derby from midday. Two informed teams on Saturday evening from 5.15 Bristol City and Brighton. Super Sunday, a slightly later start time as Liverpool face Watford in our first game. Then we're watching the champions take on West Brom. Big dramas coming your way from the US this autumn as well. The superhero drama DC's Legends of Tomorrow returns for a second series on Thursday at 8 on Sky One. The blacklist crime drama starting Friday, 9 o'clock, Sky Living. That's the fourth series.
And the third series of the award-winning drama The Affair returns on Monday, November the 21st on Sky Atlantic.
Here's Sobe. Bonnie waits in the middle. So will be twisting, turning, and it's gone in off Alfie Mawson. And out of edge. Super first touch on out of edge, in towards Joe Allen. Hasn't finished yet, but he has. It's the former Swansea double act at it again.
Yeah, wouldn't you just know it tonight, Joe Allen and Wilfred Boney, too much for their former club this evening. It finished 3-1 to Stoke City and their third victory in succession, all against that bottom three, Hull, Swansea and Sunderland, which means they're propelled all the way up to 12th place, just two points, you know, separate eight teams there from 10th all the way down to 17th. But Swansea stay in the bottom three, as they will for a couple of weeks, five points from their 10 games, five points from safety.

Stoke have had 17 attempts tonight, the second highest they've managed this season, but Swansea actually having more on target, six to Stoke's four, three of which were goals. 22 touches each in the opposition box once again, the third time under Bob Bradley, Swansea covering more distance than their opponent. Also, with more possession than they've had in any away game so far this season, 54% more passes too, and 59% of passes from Stoke in the opposition half, and perhaps that was crucial this evening. But a brace for Wilfred Brunny. His first two goals in a Stoke City shirt. Let's hear from him now with Patrick Davison.
Wilfred, up and running for your new team at the expense of one of your old sides. Do you have a feeling it might happen for you tonight?
Yeah, happier than we won. So it was very good for us because it's three games in a row we win. That was a great result for the team. Slightly sad for Swansea that it's happened against them? Yes, of course. It's very crazy. My first goal of the year has come against my ex-team. It's really crazy and disappointing for them. That's the way football is.
Did you have a feeling that the goals might happen for you tonight in terms of fitness, sharpness?
Have you felt for a while like you're getting there now? Yes, it's a couple of games where I missed some chances. I know that the goal will come, so I didn't know when. So I was still pushing myself to work very hard and then waiting for the moment to score. So every game for me was like the last game. So I pushed myself for the team and tried to do my best for the team.
Five unbeaten.
Now, what do you feel this team can achieve this season? We have a great moment now, so we want to continue like this, to take the maximum points we can before the end of this year. So we will do our best to take the maximum. I'm grateful to Joe Allen tonight. Made both your goals for you. Yes, very good. I think the first shoot, that was a shoot, but I followed the shot and I was there in the right moment and I scored.
Well, you're the Premier League man of the match. Well done, Wilfred. Thank you.
And we'll hear from Thierry and Jamie in just a moment on the game tonight. But Joe Allen, another of the heroes for Stoke City tonight, is waiting to speak to us. Congratulations, Joe. What was good about that performance from your team tonight?
I think the biggest thing was the chances we created. We managed to get three goals, but hit the woodwork three times as well.
