I think the answer can sometimes be found by looking at it from the opposition point of view. If I had been a Swansea fan on Saturday I would have said we were terrible in the first half, mainly down to an excellent Cardiff display. In the second half, while we didn't look like breaking down a stubborn and packed Cardiff defence, we controlled the game, hit the post and Whittaker missed very good chances. The one he rolled wide was a terrible miss.
While Cardiff defended well, Swansea did have more than decent chances. Had one of them gone in, the whole debate would have been very different. Again, if I'd been a Jack on Saturday I'd have been furious at some of the missed chances. As a City fan, I was relieved at the final whistle.
