Match Day Thread Swansea City 2 v 2 Leeds United

Welsh red ale from a small brewery called Tiny Rebel

 

Looks good.Enjoy,im sure you are

 

On the note of real ale,sorry Lids fans,anyone been to the micro brewery on the olde caseys yard,I see they do Sunday lunch as well.

 

Can't wait for those 1 or 2 signings...

 

in fairness he did say "may" and that's what it'll be may next year

 

"Departures" have got to be sorted first....

 

The 'Full Nelson' is the best one from this Newport Brewery, it's my regular pint down the King Arthur, in Renyoldston.

It's one of the best Pale Ales you'll ever taste, it beats Gower Gold, and that is some achievement...........

 

5 - 1 to Swans. The Leeds fans will throw loads of **** on the pitch.

 

Afternoon Swans, Potter has worked miracles with what he has, but I think its going to be a step too far for your young team.

You'll need to rush and bully our midfield if you want to get anything from the game.

Swansea 1 Leeds 2

 

Hmmm we'll see ,

 

Afternoon all.... Virtually the same squad for us as last season with loan signings Baker, Harrison, Blackman and £7/8m man Bamford being kept out the team all thanks to the style of play Bielsa has got us playing.

We’re all scratching our heads a little as it really has been above and beyond what we’d expected,forget the results, it’s the possession, chances and all around play that’s had us wondering if the blue bucket is magic

Should be a good game, if Leeds play like they have been playing then I can’t see us losing but every game we’ve played we’ve given the opposition the chance to score so if your keeper is on form and you bang in an early goal who knows.

 

Was expecting more bullish expectations from an unbeaten team. Sounds like performances haven’t reflected points.

We’ve played some great stuff, but Its way too early to see how this season is panning out.

Regardless, It’s an away fixture, it’s the championship, any team can beat any other on their day. I’d take a point if offered it.

 

I think Swansea will get better as the season progresses, I'm expecting 3 points all things considered but ask me if I would take a point with 5 minutes to go and I might change my mind.

 

I have you winning this, though a draw is possible if Potter props up our weak midfield with Fer from the start, he's a robust midfielder, and the only one we really have to give us some bite there, Tom Carroll is so lightweight, big disappointment coming from Spurs, and our squad is so wafer thin, with so many of our team culled by our vulture Yankee owners, wish they would bloody piss off..................


PS: I hope Potter plays Montero second half from the bench, he will really give your RB trouble.

 

I have watched a few of your games, and you are playing some good stuff, will be a big learning curve for our kids!.....................

 

Trouble is when you cull your best 12 players from the squad and bring in 5 kids from the academy and add 3 or 4 kids from the transfer market you really do have a completely new starting 11, which have never played together before at any real level, we have all been surprised by our good fortune with the start of this campaign considering what has happened since being relegated, but I'm not optimistic it can last, though if we can keep our head above water until Bony is back fit, then we might get a crack at the top end of the table, that's as long as our Yankee masters don't sell him in the mean time.................

 

I'd take a point with 90 minutes to go

 

Do you know the players yet..? I doubt that very much and neither do i....Potts don't know yet who can do what and with whom best,......Give the club a ring with some tactical team talk i'm sure they would listen.... But for the time being i think i will leave the team selection to Potts the best man for the job as i dont know at this stage much about them.....

 

I'm not the one making rash predictions

 

Don't know if you've got height up front but that maybe our achilles heel at the moment, with just one recognised centre back playing. If your side is young they should have the fitness to match our energy levels. A mid week tie so I suspect a 1-1 draw.
