    Got to put mcburnie on the bench...2 goals tonight.after three games he's our top scorer,and he's only played 60 mins.weve got to see how he'd cope against premier opposition!

    I think when we played you away the season before last during our awful run you beat us with Bony getting the goals? We then won the home game in the run in and twice convincingly last season. I'm wary as you're a capable side, hopefully our improvement will continue

    Sorry Roof Taylor's form last night didn't warrant a starting place. I would have Van Der Hoorn but instead of Fernandez not Amat. Also on last night's form it will be Fer not Ki

    Fulton and Mcburnie Should be playing as these two are the only players who can score and have earned their place....

    For Farques sake we must get Bony back. Llorente hasn't filled me with confidence and we've spent 15million on a crocked player.
    Let's just pay the money and know what we'll get.

    BRING BACK BONY !!!!

    Was Ki that poor? All of a sudden £7m from Stoke sounded like a great deal.

    I'd agree but it looks highly likely that he's going to WHU.

    Personally, I'd have also gone in for Jermaine Defoe this summer. He'd get us goals.

    It's obvious now that rumours that man city owed us £8m was a load of twaddle which most of us knew anyway.

    So you are saying that Man city can sell Bony even though they have not fully paid for him...<laugh> How do you work that one out ?
    They can do what they like with Bony because they have paid us the full amount owed which has always been the case, there is no other way....

    Lawro predicts a defeat and says:

    "Swansea worry me a little bit after seeing their first two games of the season.

    They were rather fortunate to beat Burnley on the opening weekend, and then they got turned over at home by Hull.

    Against the Tigers, they did not look like a team that had gelled - they were more like a bunch of strangers. It is early days, of course, but they have a lot of work to do.

    I not predicting the Swans will be relegated, but what I am saying is that, as things stand, would I be surprised if they finish 15th or 16th? I would say no.

    I also do not see them getting anything at Leicester. The Foxes' draw with Arsenal was a bit of a nothing game but I think they will be back on song for this one.

    Lawro's prediction: 2-0"

    I agree that Taylor isn't inspiring me with confidence and his replacement is doing very well. Taylor on the bench for me. I know Fernandez is the current one the fans seem to have a downer on but I worry about Amat as well. With the new referees' directives on pulling players in the box I'm amazed he hasn't given away a pen already. He does it all the time, seemingly more than Fernandez too.

    I think Ki will get out-muscled in midfield and Fer is a more robust option imo.

    Up front we have to keep faith with Llorente and hopefully he will click soon. McBurnie definitely deserves a place on the bench. Where has Kenji Gorre gone?
