this is blackpool we are playing dobbie scored a hat trick and where is he....the one thing i do like is we are playing much more forward than we did with rodgers. Blackpool experimenting the same as we are and the score is immaterial as its what you do against premiership teams that count....there are some positives and a few negatives so far...A tall defender is a must...
.... Imagine a centre back pairing of him and richard keel (Jaws in the Bond films) !! .. I bet we would still conceed at corners though! its been the swansea way since smudger and boundy left the club
Blackpool yeah, reached the playoff final like 2 months ago. Decent side. But no, the result doesn't matter, what does matter is how the team are playing and what link up plays are created. DG scoring 3 should not be overlooked at its showing that what we are doing right now is working effectively. Stop being so negative.
Just made it back from the game, thought Chico looked very composed, was never really tested in the air (although he has a hell of a leap on him), de Guzman looked class pinging passes but needs to speed it up a but (more down to match sharpness than anything I feel). And michu Massively impressed me, tracked back, won more tackles than anyone else one the pitch, has a surprising turn of pace for someone who is 6ft1, good in the air and took his goal well. Also credit to Davies, was unlucky with the goals (Ince is a real handful) I know this was against Blackpool but it gave me a good feeling about this season.
good workout for both teams. nothing more against lower league opposition. a few positives and some negatives especially in defence. players wanted at defence because with only 23 players and we lose some defenders then we will be in trouble. Blackpool needs dobbie again this season.. tidy crowd on a wet tuesday night for a kick about and fair play to those blackpool fans who either traveled or live in the district.....i expect the latter.....
