Swansea (H) Pre-Match Thread

[St.Pauli support]

In a back 3 Kola would have been the left man I thought, and Ota or Komps instead of Clichy..
So it seems to be a back 4 with Dinho as a right back.

I just feel with Kun he comes on and scores celebration in front of the bench pointing out his name is coming some time soon if he isnt getting enough game time.

sky have got dinho right back

Makes far more sense. To me anyway

He would never do that

Got 0-0 written all over it ;-)

Oh i don't know. With our defence i think Swansea might manage 1 ;-)

At which point we cash in just like we did with Dzeko. Although I can't see him doing it.

That back 3 though.........is why we won't win the league.

yep we need a Kompany type in the centre and another Stones type on the left.

I think we will be fine. I'd be more concerned if we were away from home but I think we will bounce them
Off the pitch

Either we score 6 today, or we lose 2-1

Yep that's how I feel.

Worth pointing out the Everton home, Southampton and Chelsea games where we played this formation, we missed a shed load of chances.

Perhaps Pep feels Jesus will score the chances Sergio missed early in the season, and that Sané and Sterling have more confidence in front of goal.

And who would you drop for him currently? The front 3 are on form, would be pretty harsh to drop any of them - Aguero will get back into the team no doubt, but he'll have to work for it & wait for the time being.

I agree with you ref: front 3 and on current form they all keep their place, however Sergio needs to play for him self, with the pace and ability around him now, I can see him on a run of goals and lots of them.
