Article: Swansea City vs Tottenham Hotspur Match Preview & Thread|Football, Swansea City, Tottenham Hotspur

Don't worry Swamp , were going to play some Jazz for Gareth , he's really tuned in these days !

 

Jazz is going to get eaten alive tomorrow Breezy, not much he can do, but it's not only Bale that we have to worry about, on the other wing they have Walker, who is going to have an absolute field day with whoever is at left back, he'll also gobble up Sinclair on the way too! But I'm going to be very positive and upbeat with my prediction tomorrow, and say 4-0 to Spurs!.......................

We'll just about that pal !!

 

Lot of Spurs fans on here & half of them are Swans !!

 

For us to get anything from this game, we will have to play the best we have so far this season & Spurs to have their worst game. If that happens then the best I think we`ll do is a draw.

At first I thought it might be 2-0 to the Spurs, yesterday I thought 3-0, now I daren`t think what the final score might be. If Bale doesn`t run riot, which is a big if, then there are plenty of others that can cause chaos with our defence.

Vorm is going to have to have the game of his life to keep it respectable. Feel sorry for Monk & the rest of the defence.

 

Are Swansea fans always this negative?
I think you're having a great season.
You'd have all taken a 5 point gap between you and the relegation spots at this point, surely?

 

Not helped

 

That happens a lot against us!

 

PNP, we are not negative, just realistic. If we could reproduce our second half performance at Liverpool we would have a chance but lately we have gone off the boil and there is a distinct lack of confidence permeating the team.

At our best we could cause you problems but we are stuttering right now and injuries are not helping. We can but hope that Spurs have an off day, or take a win for granted. If that happens and the Swans gain some rhythm, we might spring a surprise because we can play. We just need to produce it on the day.

 

Walker ain't any better than Nani Phil & Taylor did a job on him . Monk also played against Manchester United & they got there 1 - 0 winner from a mistake by Rangel . Tottenham aren't better than Man U & we had a great game against them .

 

Spurs are the form side at the moment Crackerjack, and I think most people would agree that their first eleven is better than a Man U first eleven. They will be more attacking than Man U were, and we will probably struggle to deal with it. Fingers crossed though

P.S. Kyle Walker will be one of their biggest threats. The gaps that are left between Sinclair and whoever is playing left back are always too big, and Walker's pace with the ball at his feet has looked frightening recently

 

I have managed to secure a (somewhat dodgy) connection, which I will be trying to stream the game on!

COYS!

 

Come On You Spurs?
Cheers.

 

I did think that after I posted! Got to love a bit of mutual encouragement...

Joe Allen on Gareth Bale;

 

i'll echo this COYS

here's to a good game

 

From the BBC Live Football updates;

SWANSEA v TOTTENHAM (1500 BST)

Peter Shuttleworth reports: "It is a top of the table battle at The Liberty Stadium - as first in the Fair Play league visit second. Only leaders Manchester City have made more passes than Swansea but only Stoke have fired off fewer shots, and therein lies manager Brendan Rodgers' problem. But Swansea, who have won just once in eight, have the tightest defensive home record in Britain and have not lost at home to Tottenham Hotspur since 1946."

Good to see we're top of something! That stat about more passes than anyone bar Man City and less shots than anyone bar Stoke is a worrying one though.

 

Come on Swans, play your hearts out boys!

 

We've gone for the same team we had against Norwich. You might want to hope our players are still tired from all the chances we created against, Norwich

 

Breezy Manu are losing against Blackburn, at Old Traford!!...Not trying to score points with you, but Spurs are a much bigger threat, than Manu, and unless our boys find their form, and our manager, Rodgers wakes up, I see nothing but a mauling!........

 

the bigger the team the better we play and its only class at the end of the day that beat us, the pluses for us today is we have an excellent home record, we keep the ball nicely abet in our own half and we have one of the best goalkeepers in the premiership with Vorm. I cant see many goals today but i think class will shine through....I'm gutted i have to miss this match through illness but i will watch it on line ....
