Swansea (H) Pre-Match Thread

Are we playing today...Just wondering as since 12.30 sly have only focused on the chavs ...scum ..the crisp eaters and the sheep shaggers...

 

[St.Pauli support]

Sigurudsson definitely a threat today. Hopefully we can strangle them in midfield and limit their outlet ball. We'll definitely have to watch out the ball over the top.

Maybe that's why Dinho is right back and look for Sigurdsson, as Yaya is doing well in the middle anyway.

Swansea guy just said the counter attack and clinical finishing is what they are best at

They did well away to Liverpool and they have won their last 2 but I feel confident today

Typical Guardiola springing out another surprise but Fernandinho has to tuck in at right back inverted surely. I would have pushed Clichy away from that football pitch and played Kolarov, Kompany and Stones instead, which makes me think that it is likely to be mainly 4 at the back with Fernandinho at right back.

It could be a very fluid system alternating between the advertised 3241( scratches head), 343 or 4141/433. But the keeper retains his place and the front three is intact, which is important to maintain consistency. Yaya, De Bruyne, Silva and that front three so ....you know....smash em!!!!.

Win and three points is all that matters.

What's up with Nolito?
When was the last game he played?

 

[Goater=Legend]

That back three is awful.

Still we should have enough up top to score enough today

Pep refining his side rather than making wholesale changes....and I think I like it

Jesus is my FF captain so hoping for a hat trick today ;)

 

[Machiavelli]

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.

Or he comes on and refuses to pass whilst constantly running into cul de sacs. It won't hurt him to have some much needed competition to push him back to something like he has been in the past. Kelechi hasn't threatened his place enough, Jesus looks like he might actually spark Kun back in to action - especially with his overall play.
