Match Day Thread Swansea City v Tottenham Hotspur

I am concerned that we may play Llorentte too early listening to clem's assessment of him. As we are paying one of the best physical clubs on a high then I hope we don't play him so he can get 100% fit for the run in. If he is not 100% fit and we play him then it is a big risk and should he antagonise his injury then we will be without him and he probably wont ever play for us again......It is astonishing that a premiership club has to rely on one striker when we have a £15m striker laying idle....Play him Clem ffs...

 

Glad to please........in these dim times

 

Tottenham will surely have too much class. 0-2 and into 18th place.

But it's far from over, loads of twists and turns to come, I suspect. Perhaps Burnley will have a dreadful end to their season and come to our rescue...

 

Like most, can't see us getting anything from this one. Even if we can get to half-time without conceding, I still expect Spurs to run out 2-0 winners.
Just hoping we can get the full three points from the Hammers game. Maybe the brother v brother aspect can spark Jordan Ayew into life and he can get revenge for when he last played against Andre and lost when it was the Swansea v Villa fixture.

 

After the game tomorrow we only have 3 games left at home..... Stoke. Everton and WBA......Just 9 points....Our away games are tough...West ham.Watford, Man utd, and Sunderland. I cant see where the points are going to come from TBH Maye 5 points at a push imo..

There's a few games against mid-table teams who have very little left to play for. Won't get into the relegation fight, but equally they have virtually no chance of of getting into Europe.

 

You seemed slightly more confident over on our board sea

In all honesty you face us at an opportune time with injuries piling up left right and center. Most Spurs fans would be happy with a narrow victory and so would I. No game is easy at this stage of the season, especially away from home at a team scrapping for points.

I think we'll win 1-2 with Siggy scoring a 25 yarder just to say hi.

 

Spurs at a canter, we have in our last 3 games gone rapidly backwards and been extremely poor and tothless. My only hope is we tend to lift our game when we play the bigger sides.

 

I thought if any of your players read your board ... I could scare them into submission

 

Isn't Andre at West Ham?

Anyway, not looking forward to this at all. Looks ike it'll be a lovely evening but head says at least 0-2.

That said, this crazy team never ceases to surprise us (usually in a bad way) so who knows? Spurs do have some injuries. Let's hope.

 

Looks like no Llorente , old men mend slower ....the team I'd like to see .
Fab
Naughton , Fernandez , Mawson , Olsson
Routs , Cork , Siggy , Carroll , Narsingh
.........................Fer

 

I understand that Llorente now has an infected foot....

 

I'm glad Llorentte is not playing tonight as I would rather have him fit for other games...Tonight is all about damage limitation and parking the bus if we have too and maybe we can snatch a goal towards the end as Spurs become increasingly frustrated.....If spurs score early then we will be in trouble and another nail in our coffin.
Clem has to get his game plan spot on as there is no other way, We cant afford to get hammered....

 

His game plan has been built around Llorente.....

 

Well that shows what a useless manager he is then.....To be regarded as a good manager you have to have a Plan A, B and C at the very least....

 

Team I'd like to see:

Fab
Naughton , My Mum, Mawson , Olsson
Routs , Cork , Siggy , Carroll , Narsingh
.........................McBernie (Why not? Llorente's our only striker with a shot on goal I think)

No Fer because Siggy would be sacrificed out wide to accommodate, again. Main reason though is Siggy is against his old Club so I'd put him where he can do most damage, up front and on point. He can play box to box too where Fer struggles but I'd like to see him push high, midway to the D and beyond. I feel a tap in coming.

Team We'll probably see though:
Fab
Naughton , Your Mum , Mawson , Olsson
Routs , Cork , Fer , Carroll , Siggy
.........................Ayew

Could see Britton? I'd like to see him and Carroll get a run out together just to stir things up. Then our small side would be even smaller.

So none of our Mums get a look in Fernandez gets the nod, criminal

As per 55's link above and as we all thought

Fab
Naughton, Fernandez, Mawson, Olsson
Routledge, Cork (C), Fer, Carroll , Sigurdsson
...............Jordan Ayew

Spurs
Vorm,
Walker, Alderweireld, Vertonghen (C), Davies,
Dier, Dembele, Sissoko, Eriksen, Dele,
..................Son

 

Come on you Swans......Show some true grit and make us proud.......

 

Routs in again i see.
