    Arsenal are coming into the game after a resounding thumping on the weekend and Swansea will be coming into the game wondering how they didn't get at least a point at Goodison.
    Will we feel a backlash from the Gunners or will we get something from the game. The difference earlier on in the season was Ramsay at the Liberty, but they won't have him for this fixture.

    My team would be

    Vorm
    Rangel
    Chico
    Amat
    Taylor
    Britton
    Jonjo
    Routs
    Dyer
    Pablo
    Bony

    Will be very happy with a point and Bony not getting subbed for Michu :D

    Gunners will throw a full effort into winning this game. If we're not behind when at halftime, I believe we have a fair chance to scrape a point. Just hope we're not the ones going home with a 0-6 defeat on our hands....

    I think we'll need a miracle to get anything tonight....... but miracles haven't happened since video cameras were invented so I don't hold too much hope.

    Swansea v. Arsenal... I thought we were away :)

    The sensible money will obviously be on an Arsenal win and that's what I expect the result to be.

    Let's hope Liverpool take Sunderland to the cleaners tomorrow night.

    I wonder what the odds would be on Swansea staying up without getting any more points...hmm

    I can't see anything other than a Arsenal win. I'd be happy if we at least give them a scare!

    My team:

    Rangel, Chico, Ash, Davies
    Britton, Shelvey
    Dyer, michu, Routledge
    Bony

    Go out all attack and put them under pressure and ask them the questions.

    Arsenal bounce back should be too much for us. However, if we stop giving away goals through stupid mistakes and take one or two of our chances, we might get a draw..... or better. Gunners win but you never know.......

    We need a top team scalp and we need it today , if just for depleted spirit alone . If I can't have that then at least a 90 minute effort please .

    I'm going for a Swansea win 2-1, with Emnes actually getting a decent run out, and Michu behind him, with Bony to come on for the last 30 minutes!.......................<cheers>









    Anyone know Monks mobile number, I can send him a text for the starting line up!.......<laugh>

    I think you need a keeper in there unless that how you plan Arsenal to win!

    I'd assume we're not going to win this so would be going for a gun-ho xmas tree:

    Vorm
    Rangel - Chico - Williams - Taylor
    Dyer - Britton - Routledge
    Hernandez - Michu
    Bony

    EDIT: Just read this shocking stat "Only Norwich, Cardiff and Fulham have conceded more goals in the Premier League than Swansea this season."

    Just goes to show how impressive our scoring has been to have such a small negative goal difference.

    Which is why we need proper defenders in the summer as our centre backs are our weak link.
