Swansea (a) - pre-match thread

[simon23]

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.

he played there once last season and was phenomenal...not at right back but at right sided mid (think it was during the second half of one game (he got swapped there in a re shuffle by MP) and he either set up a goal or scored (cant quite remember)..that is basically the position he would be playing under pep at right back seeing how pep uses his fullbacks ..he also has the defensive qualities

He played there once or twice in Europe and was excellent I agree, I am a bit sceptical that he will be used there much though, we are a bit light in midfield with a lot of matches to play but have two right backs plus Maffeo all of who can do a job I think he will want to rest Fern from time to time rather than have him at right back though I would agree that he may well do an excellent job there if he had to.

If Navas plays I think Sterling moved to the right.

If Navas plays he won't play on the left and therefore Sterling won't play on the right in that scenario

Nolito is a far more important player than I expected. We have so many wide players, but only Nolito is any good on the left. Sterling, despite him saying he prefers the left, is better on the right. As are Sané and Navas. So Nolito getting himself banned needlessly is quite the inconvenience. I really don't like Sterling on the left at all.

oh i dont think he will be played there...just suggesting that he would be good there and in a best 11 that is where he could play.

I could not watch City on Weds.No Sky/BT - no decent stream.
I suppose it will have to be Radio Manc. again.
Unless someone knows different ?.

I streamed it to my laptop, not HD quality, but never buffered once.

it's crazy what attacking talent and football we are seeing now. I'm watching the capital one cup final vs scourers and cannot believe that we started with Fernando fernandinho and toure!!

The thing is that with the squad evolving to play Pep's way, we are now playing so well as a team with high work ethic, that we can rotate players without upsetting the system. Unlike in previous seasons when key players were not playing. It's going to get even better as players fully understand how Pep wants them to play, as we are still in relative transition.

We are blessed fellow blues : )

there was a decent 720p stream on njm soccer for the first game. There'll be loads for this game being the premier league
