Swansea Post Match

[Sarb]

I think the whole defensive line is an issue that's caused a lot of doubt amongst the whole lot of them. Seems to me that nobody seems quite sure what the other players are going to be doing.

Some serious work needs to be done in the Summer on tightening this defence up

Can you imagine how good we would be if our defence was half decent? Crazy

[Exiled_red]

I think we need to learn how to manage games better, we seem to be fine when we go after teams but we don't know how to manage games when we're a couple of goals up, that is something we really need to learn, at 2-0 we should be looking to take the pace out of the game and make the opposition chase the ball and take the next goal when it comes, we don't seem capable of doing that.

Joe Allen - fantastic display 2nd half.

Said it at half time we needed to make the change we did. Worked very well for us,he was brilliant.

I think we've suffered this season with the chopping and changing at the back and so many individual errors has made everyone nervous at the back.

[Jaymo]

I don't buy into this Skrtel bashing. From what I remember Agger was bullied around today too. The whole back line need sorting, Mignolet doesn't seem to want to come off his line which is obvious. That puts the two central defenders under pressure as they have to deal with the ball facing our own goal.

As soon as we sort the mess out, we'll be a strong force in this league.

FWIW, the goal that Swansea scored for 2-2 was never a freekick or a yellow card.

At what point does the focus switch to the system?

We've played everyone we have in a variety of positions and we remain awful.Are all of our players really that ****!

I really think it is a training/tactical issue. Maybe we dont concentrate enough on defensive aspect of the game

[Liverpool]

despite the 3 points we choked big time, also showed our lack of depth there was no-one who would bring on to get us that goal

still in it and chelsea/city didnt deserve their points either

[kemm1]

The players need to watch the tape of this game a few times, this game shines a bright spotlight on our weaknesses.

But ****ing happy with the 3 points though.

[Liverpool]

Flano was pretty poor, we seemed very open down that side and in middle

[Fosterbloke]

Henderson, Coutinho and Allen seems to be our best midfield with Sturridge, Sterling and Suarez up front.

[Bernardicus]

Every goal we conceded was unlucky. First was a speculative shot that hit the bar and went in. Second was a deflection. Third was a dubious penalty. On another day we would have won 4-0.

a few weeks ago id agree but no way can we drop gerrard

no-one picked him up, another goal from a set piece, then again skertl with his arms around a player, he and refs must be both aware of the huge attention hes been getting, add in mig made some good saves we could have lost 5-4 another day

[tufty]

Now I can go watch the Spurs game with some calm.

hopefully put a bit of a downer on Spurs that result

[Cormack74]

You still mates with Ian Herbert Shaggy?

Can you get him to ask Brendan at a presser what he's going to do about sorting out the defence?
