Do away with the midfield. They just slow the game down or give the ball away.

They make socks in workshops?.. Or Worksop?.. 

Or perhaps they have workshops in Worksop that make socks?

No I think if you actually read it properly Wells Bells a chap or chapess called Imo has workshops for his or her socks?

 

im bloody confused now :blink:

Tricky for MA - if he makes a lot of changes of personnel or formation then he is sort of letting down his mate who got him the job and also raising questions as to why he couldn’t convince shakey to change things. 

 

For that reason I think we won’t see much difference although he could go 3-5-2 and argue that’s how we finished Monday night and we looked more potent that way

 

lets hope so

So Imo lives in Worksop and works in a workshop making socks? 

Hope I haven't put my foot in it!

They may be some respite as there must be a strong possibility that

the match is either not played or abandoned. The weather forecast

around kick off time is particularly nasty in that area.

 

Yep. Just saw weather forecast this morning. 

 

Gusting gale force winds from Storm Brian expected in parts of S. Wales & SW England.

Top of the national list for high winds was Mumbles.....near Swansea.

 

If the match does proceed and last the duration, it might be a day for hoofball, sadly - defenders kicking it into the stand or maybe play Slimani and hit long balls to him.

Not the sort of football I'd want to see generally, but might be necessary today.

Suspect that strong winds will favour the side who are playing on the floor and fairly short.  Swansea’s stadium probably offers little shelter from a roaring sou’wester 

 

Another defeat then ...........

Possibly. If so, I reckon it would have to be very short passes - which Swansea are probably capable of, and we aren't at the moment.

Long, accurate cross-field balls to Mahrez & Albrighton certainly seems like a non-starter, as does defence-splitting through balls on the ground for Vardy.

Long aerial balls for someone like Slimani to get his head on might work, though, as they wouldn't need to be so accurate.

Yep I think that’s right or left or maybe both. This Imo must be great, can we sign him?

 

that way we could really sock it to them!!! :o

Was practically 3 years ago this Saturday we lost 2-0 to Swansea away. Arguably the worst performance of that season.

 

Wouldn't be too hopeful going into this. Gonna be hard to lift the players after this weeks events . Would take a draw.

They looked good against Huddersfield last week. I dont think they are as s*** as everyone makes out.

Can somebody tell Rudkin to go to Watford with a load Brown Envelope full of money

 

And bring back Silva

If only we’d done that in the summer (minus the Watford part). Would’ve got him I reckon. Instead we got an inexperienced coach who was able to get his mates going for a few games.

Can we just put Gray and mahrez in the team and tell them to run at people please.
