Swansea City (A) pre-match

[SK3Blue]

Honestly rather have Birch up front than Ayew, Daka, Carranza.

-Faes was a bomb scare again, stupid yellow.

-Hamza was sloppy.

-Time for VK to start, McAthomas just isn’t doing it. 
-Daka can’t be expected to start again that quickly without being fully match fit.

-Ayew should not be playing.

-Skipp is awful.

-Mavididi I genuinely think is finished here.

No idea for the 9 theyre all crap. Perhaps Daka again purely because it enables us to play further up the pitch

 

Lose 2-0 regardless. We are fvcking shite

Looking forward to Ramsey returning. Think the 10 position is key

Bringing on Monga, Ayew and Carranza, but not until we've taken the lead and after 60mins

I think that's probably our best 11 which is just staggering to think about. I don't remember a club falling off as fast as this before.

[RonnieTodger]

Vipotnik looks like a proper no.9

[Noahfence]

I hope he keeps picking the same players that have let us down for years. 

[Gamble92]

How is anyone saying we should drop Faes?

[adejo92]

Id bring Ricardo into defence but keep the rest, albeit begrudgingly. I prefer Thomas to VK which says something about how bad VK is.

 

Don't know about the rest, its an absolute train wreck of a squad.

 

Don't want to see Mavididi anywhere near the starting line up.

I'd be happy to never watch him play for us again.

[funkyrobot]

Potential banana skin. They’ve got a dangerous striker in Vipotznik and the ex LCFC boys Sheehan and Stearman have got them playing good football. For us hopefully Rambo will be back and Skipp is out of the squad. Nelson and Aluko at least in the squad. Not sure what we do about our strikers tho. Give Carrenza a barely deserved 90 minute go?? 

[Bob Weasel Fox]

Play the kids build for the future

 

fvck the old guard 

[Grebfromgrebland]

Think this'll be a a draw or a loss.

[Jobyfox]

I hope Marti isn’t too reactive with the starting line up.

 

The first 55 minutes or so against Wrexham we looked ok. Far better balance and movement. We just completely lost our way after failing to score the 2nd goal.

 

Start with a similar eleven. There are arguments for:

- VK over Thomas (much of a muchness)

- Ricardo is better than Hamza

- Ramsey v BDCR (although I think Bobby did ok and I’m really not a fan) 

 

But please don’t go back to Ayew and drop Skipp out of the squad (he offers nothing) 

- Better game management required.

- Hamza and Ricky would probably both provide better midfield options than Skipp.
- Ramsey could replace BDCR and not require a change in shape to the midfield 

- Only bring Ayew on if we have a 2 goal advantage and need somebody to slow the game down. 
 

It’s a depressing squad of players that we have to pick from, but if we play like we did in the first half against Wrexham we’ll go close to promotion. We just need to make ourselves more difficult to play against

[FoxFossil]

We're Leicester City, we draw when we want.

[Stadt]

1-0 Swansea. Our goal line is pretty much nailed on un under 2.5, they're solid defensively but we're just so prone to putting ourselves under pressure.

Not sure there is much between Okoli and the other options

Not sure there is much between Thomas and VK 

Nelson is benefiting from the classic phase of becoming thought of as a better player due to his absence from the team

I’ve only seen Ramsey play for a few minutes and then get sent off

Having watched that first half of football against Wrexham I’m more convinced than ever that Ayew should never start for us in the no.9 position ever again 

 

Apart from that I agree that’s our best line up 

[Foxdiamond]

Hope to see a full game from Ramsey to see what he can do

[Ric Flair]

Like Preston, had a good record against these over the years that will come to an abrupt end this season.

 

2-1 loss

[filbertway]

If Ramsey comes in and plays infront of James and Winks then we might look a bit more dangerous.

 

Assuming Marti reverts to safety mode I expect we'll win the possession battle but that'll be about it.

[FoxinNotts]

Apart from the goal conceded (Vestergaard being weak as piss, in a weird position) the center backs didn't have a bad game.

 

Hamza nearly gifted them a goal. Drop.

 

Kristiansen always looks lost.

 

Carranza looks like he'll never get up to speed.

 

James and Winks look class at this level.

 

Fatawu and Monga need repetitive shooting practice.

 

Daka needs another chance to start

Why don't we have Fatawu as the no 9, he has pace, and knows where the net is
