Swansea (a) Post Match Thread

The real issue with both Otamendi and Mangala is their complete lack of composure on the ball. You are right in saying they have come from leagues with a much lessor tempo and physicality so have looked better and got away with most things but the PL is cruelly exposing the pair of them and after a full season, they look to be getting worse rather than better.

New back 4 is needed as i dont believe our full backs are good enough either.

Id agree re Mangala, but I have always thought Ota has decent ball skills.
 
It's down to millimetres again. Last season and the season before, and the one before that, probably didn't have any more chances than we have created this season. The only difference is that this season, they haven't been poked home. The number of chances created yesterday were enough to have won the game three or four times over!
 
Honestly mate they look like they are kicking a live hand grenade around at times.
Nobody could be worse than Lescott with the ball at their feet but he was part of our best defence in recent years due to protection from gaz baz and De Jong. Kompany and Zab didn't exactly hit the ground running. Otamendi and mangala could both be revelations next season unfortunately both need to play with a leader, like Kompany.
 
I wonder what was up with Sergio yesterday? He had a face on him like a wet weekend and some of his shots were so half hearted.
I must admit I'm glad we're at the end of the season, it's been such a let down after so much promise the way we started the season.

I was looking at the EFC report this morning, and it appears that GazBaz has been voted fans' and players' player of the season. I am pretty certain that we would not have been scratting about on the last day for fourth place had he been sitting in front of Otters and The Mangler for most of the season. One of the most scandalous decisions taken to ship him out!

I don't agree with you all the same Dave, but we are in the same boat on this one! A vastly underrated player in his time with us and to say we missed him this season is a huge understatement! Ask any Evertonian about how they feel about his signing!

I think he just felt the same way as most of us, for the love of God, please just let this season be over with !!
