BlueBlood81 Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 At least he's finally dropped Cahill! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted December 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 It must be clear to everyone that Neville offers us nothing that Barkley can't? And is unable to do a touch of what he can. Why not play osman in midfield and have straq on for Cahill and drop Neville at the very least. One defensive mid, felli covers Neville's job. Still too defensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 Oh Davey why do you do it to us!? I just hope that in a couple of hours time we don't look back rue not being more positive against another beatable team. Glad to at least see Drenthe back as well as Barkley on the bench.

Bailey Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 (edited) Drenthe is the spark already... Saha has been a little bit disapointing so far, couple of opportunities to get himself into some good space or play someone in and he hasnt done it. Looking very even, which is a bit of a worry as normally we start well. Edited December 21, 2011 by Bailey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted December 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 Their attitude and style of play shames us. Drenthe superb up to now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 Drenthe, Osman and Felli are bossing the show for us, would probably be just as good without Neville & Coleman on the pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 It looks like Coleman might be playing with an existing injury... I really hope not, would be stupid to risk him when we have alternatives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 Baines corners have been really crap so far... Saha seems to constantly be on his heels and he is always dropping deep instead of trying to get in front of the defender. Looks like Coleman is off now and Gueye will be on. A more creative and attacking option which I like. Hopefully he does well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 We are starting to turn the screw now, I actually think we might score! Drenthe just looks like he loves playing football... Its great to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noble Savage Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 How do we not score!? Really great play and a good save, but bloody hell just put it in the net! Could/should have had a penalty . Grrrr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 Since gueye has come on we have really sparked into life and we are fashioning some chances. Its nice to see Baines playing 1-2's and not just whipping balls in from 30 yards out every time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 We are all over them... best performance of the season so far imo. We are causing them real problems and midfield are running riot. Neville is still a bit of a waste though... Just seems to put us under unecessary pressure. Only un positive thing I can say about this performance since the Coleman sub. Saha has even sparked into life (albeit still a little wasteful).

Blueherts Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 Vorm would be a great purchase when swansea go back down to the championship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 Half time and unlucky to be 0-0 but we are creating some good chances. Gueye could have scored two (although he was incorrectly given offside for one chance which was saved anyway) and Baines is really getting into the game. Only gripe as mentioned above is Neville, and while he is doing alright I cant help but think Barkley would bring that last little bit of quality we need to open the scoring and then help to put a few past them. Nothing less than a win from here though Moyes, we wont get a better opportunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greavesy8 Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 (edited) Best performance from Osman all year, playing some terrific passes and has found that final ball a few times. Would have loved maggie to put that in the back of the net, he looks a gem. btw, bily not even on the bench, could it mean the rumours of wolfsburg are true? or just dropped...

MikeO Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 We're playing OK for sure....but have to say I'm impressed with Swansea. Very well organised. Having said that I hope we crush the b'stards second half . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 (edited) We are being very lazy defensively at the moment. We are barely pressing them when they have the ball even deep in our own half. One gripe with Drenthe is that sometimes he just hangs on the ball too long. On occasions he has to use his team mates a little more. Edited December 21, 2011 by Bailey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 I think Fellaini just won about 6 tackles from 3 different Swansea players in the space of 10 seconds... Beast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hafnia Posted December 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 When you play 4-5-1 with a striker who drops deep that's what happens, I'm sure moyes must know this. No prescence up front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 It would probably be worth swapping Drenthe & Gueye because the Swansea FB is reading Drenthe everytime. Looks like Straq is about to come on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 Neville isnt even tracking the people he is meant to marking. They are finding all sorts of space infront of the defence and Neville is marking thin air... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
