Swansea (a) - pre-match thread

[Le Havre Oswald]

Think navas may get a run out

Does anyone know any pubs in town that'll be showing it? Feel free to PM me if you don't want to post it on here!

Yep, at the swamp. Contender for MOTM, didn't give Mkhitaryan or Martial a sniff and was behind a lot of our best attacks.

Left back and an assist against Mönchengladbach as well if I recall correctly.

Think you're right. I'm too old to remember yesterday, these days.

Id like to see this team

----------------------Bravo-------------------------

-------------Stones---------Otto-------------

Ferna------------Gundongan------------Clichy/Kolorov


Sterling -------Kdb-----------Silva----------Sane

--------------------Aguero-------------------------

Bit unfair on Zabba and sagna but i think Ferna would be awesome in that position...has the engine to get up and down and more creative than either abs or Sagna when he gets in the attacking third.

You seem to be bored already with City winning all the time and want to mix up the well-balanced squad? :)

Fernandinho covers so much ground in the middle of the park. He can't do that near the line. He would lose his biggest strength.

Indeed Zab and Sagna would be confused. And you forgot about about Maffeo, the backup kid on RB.
Pace on the wing is not our problem at all. And wait a bit to see Jesus coming in. And Moreno. And Roberts.

Fernandinho is a monster in the mid. Every opponent would smile to see him near the line. Believe me.

On balance I have to agree that he should stay put. However, I believe he would be excellent on the right and would offer us more than Zab or Sagna do going forward.

In theory, maybe yes. Leave it there.

Fernando to cover the mid all the time?
Forget about Gundo in that position, he is further up the pitch.
Garcia as a holding mid? Hm.

Interesting mindgames, but no need at all to shake up a winning squad. It also would be a direct public critizism of our right backs.
Why should Pep start that discussion?

If Pep would be in need to change something or to surprise an opponent, okay. But Swansea? Come on...

Bravo
Sagna Stones Otamendi Kolarov
Sterling Gundogan Dinho KDB Sane
Aguero

Bring on Spanish Face after 60 minutes and he'll have them chasing shadows.

0-4 to us.

I say, that's a bit derogatory, no? ;-)
