*****Official Match Thread v Swansea*****

Recommended Posts

Expected line up given DF's pre-match comments.

Very important game to start to put a marker down,  to create a gap and put the pressure on the 2nd and 3rd. I'm absolutely sure the players know how important this one is hence that comment "Dig in" by Farke.

That bench is outstanding.

I would be happy with any of them to start - cannot remember the last season we have had this much solid depth.

No surprises there then!

Was hoping Mario would start, but the whole squad is strong so not too bothered

Got to avoid any complacency tonight. A win, any win will lay down a marker for the rest to come and catch us. And we will see if they have the quality to do it.

Swans controlling the midfield with some good possession. I am not suggesting a change this early in the game but Leitner would be a good call for this type of game.

Worst I've seen us start. Yet we do look dangerous up front.

We don't look quite as crisp up front as normal though. Final pass lacking.

Still early though; the boys will come good.

Have to admit Swansea play out from the back very well. As good as I've seen. 

Perhaps we are settling into the game now.

The worst half of the season? Or a very decent Swansea?

.....both.

They're playing it around at the back like we do. Only better at the moment.

Lucky to be level. Swansea have been surprisingly good - nothing like the shower at the Liberty earlier in the season.

By our standards that was awful. Changes needed at half time. I’d start with Leitner on for McClean and go from there

I will be pleased if it's a draw if the second half same as first.

DF looked furious. Pretty sure we will get a response.

It's the rain. It did for us in Hull and it's doing for us here... Am not convinced by McLean in the deep role still, just feel he doesn't quite have the defensive nous of leitner or vrancic...
