"it goes without saying"

Nevertheless could also be used.

An alternative: "Naturally ....."

Depends on the situation lets say you put "_______, I was upset." Needless to say, I was upset. Of course, I was upset. (although this is a bit more rude, it still works) Obviously, I was upset. What brian said could be put like: I was upset, which goes without saying. hoppas att detta hjälper :)
