Swansea (A) FA Cup | Pre-Match Thread

[Alan Harper's Tash]

I'm looking forward to the alternative commentary more than the match. Thunder bastard...

It’ll be interesting how Garcia is described, should he play.

There is a goose honking in the background in today's training video as Kun does intricate first touch drills. I looked up what a goose honk portends ...

“If the goose honks high, fair weather.
If the goose honks low, foul weather.”

Good side Swansea we need to be on our game at Vetch Field on Wednesday.

Even more so at the Liberty Stadium. They left Vetch Field years ago.

Not Mendy. No no no no no.
Anyone but him at LB - he's a fecking liability.

FCBarce on the commentary?

 

[JGL07]

Those putting EDS youngsters into the team against Swansea clearly have not been following recent team selection. Swansea are looking very strong and have every chance of promotion. Maybe they will put out a weakened team? Maybe they won’t? I doubt that Guardiola will take the risk.

City put out a reasonably strong team out against Birmingham at home, I expect a stronger team out away at Swansea.

Steffan
Walker, Stones, Laporte, Mendy
Foden, Fernandinho, Bernardo
Ferran, Jesus, Mahrez

Get a decent lead and then put on the youngsters.
