Swansea fans delivered a chant of “we thought you were dead” to Manchester United striker Robin Van Persie during Saturday’s match.

The song was a reference to comments made by Sir Alex Ferguson last season. The former United boss claimed that Van Persie was lucky to be alive after Swans defender Ashley Williams kicked the ball against his head.

At the time, he said: “He [Williams] could have killed the lad [Van Persie] – he should be banned for a long time.”

You can hear the chant in the video above. And here’s a reminder of the incident that inspired it…
