    Got no problems with Shelvey , got no problems with the club over selling Shelvey if it happens
    We never played him the way we should have , he never wanted to play the way we wanted him to.
    He gets a fresh start , we get fresh money ..win , win .
    Team for tomorrow .
    Fab sits
    Naughton , Amat , Williams , Tabanou
    Barrow , Cork , Ki , Shelvey , Montero
    Eder( If not fit , Emnes )

    Fair play to Curt for giving Shephard a go...good on him.
    Are we to take from the line up that Cork and Gomis won't be starting v Sunderland?
    The subs Curt makes will be interesting.

    I think that is an attacking team which will beat Oxford by 2+ goals.
    Looking forward to Tab and Monty linking up.
    Also Shelvey in a more forward position (where he can do less damage and a position which suit his strengths).
    Want Gomis to score and get his head straight, because he can do it in the Prem if he's on it.
    Emnes should go well.
    Would like to see him score as well as he could use a confidence boost.
    I hope Nordfeldt doesn't let himself down, let's see a solid display.
    Wanna see Grimes get on the ball often and show he wants it.
    Genuinely get excited at seeing a kid like Shepherd get his break. Will be watching him closely.


    Well done Curt!
    Proving to have excellent management skills, using the squad / picking players up / giving youth a chance / saying the right things to the press (which makes the players feel wanted and makes clear nobody will be going on the cheap) and most importantly picking good teams which make sense.

    A good feeling around the club now that the poison has been bled.

    C'mon Swansea!!

    "now that the poison has been bled".

    Been reading your Shakespeare again,Terror. <laugh>

    Good luck to the team today,especially young Liam. Big day for him.

    The English media will be looking for an upset today,let's hope they go to their beds disappointed. <ok>

    Attack-wise, it looks like a decent selection, but that defence looks vulnerable.

    We should be keeping better possession and Emnes looks off the pace.
