Even when we play at our best we aren't half as good as United, Mourinho wants to win this trophy so he'll put out a strong side, they'll dick us. If I was him, I wouldn't do anything against Swansea except play the same team we did against WBA (bar Marshall) and see if he can work out where we went wrong and then ****ing fix it.

We'll try to the win the game, naturally, I just don't see that eventuality.

ah remain positive mate. we should beat swansea
 
We did ok against a full strength United at the start of the season. Granted some of them were still finding their feet, but they'd won their first two games so it wasn't as if they were struggling.
 
Assistant coach is João Pedro, physical trainer Gonçalo Pedro and Rifa scout. I don't remember the goalkeeping coach.
Any information on how player recruitment and scouting has gone at his previous clubs
Have his signings been hit or miss
And does he have any players that tend to follow him from club to club?

I suspect he might do that, play the same team and see how they fare.
 
Switch Jake and Harry...AND put Jak back in goal where he belongs for the rest of the season. Get our GA average down to 1 per game and get Abel back to play off Mbob up front and we can stay up with Silva in charge. We are good enough to overtake Swansea, Sunderland, Palace, and Boro if we play our best players in their best positions.

"We are good enough to [stay up] if we play out best players in their best positions"

"Switch Jake and Harry"

<laugh>
 
That's the way I see it too , I can't believe the lack of interest in the game next week , we once took 6000 to Anfield when we were 5-1 down , because that's what city fans did ,. Now people can't be arsed with a semi final

But as you know, there is a major reason why crowds as a whole are way down at the moment. I'd be a bit disappointed if people who are staying away made an exception for a higher profile game.

What happens if those teams also play their players (who are much better than ours) in their 'best' positions?

If Silva plays Clucas at LWB will he immediately be stupid because he can't see what everyone on here can see? I'm particularly excited to see the reaction when Marshall still starts. He was only playing because we paid big money for him while Phelan was manager, right?
 
Yesterday on Burnsy, Buckingham said that in an interview with Phelan and the upcoming visit to Manure that the Swansea game was a nothing game..

To be honest I wouldn't, like with the Play Off Final. These experiences don't come around that often for a club like ours.

Yep. So the next time Marshall punches it into his net and Silva drops him people won't wet their pants that his confidence has now been shattered because the big bad manager dropped him, right?

Has that ever happened?

I don't think many people have been boycotting games away from the KCOM anyway have they? I was thinking more of home ties.

Both legs of the League Cup tie are what I'm referring to. This is our first ever semi final in the League Cup.
