Allens a young lad, 22 i think! give him (and the others) time to adapt.. BR clearly building for the future with Sturridge, lucas, allen, sterling, suso, wisdom etc etc... For a team to gel instantly ain't going to happen, but with time, our football will be more consistant as they'll know how each player plays individually. support the players and we'll be a force in the coming seasons.

Gotta hand it to him, the last 2 games he has hit form again in his new position. He controlled the tempo against QPR and Sunderland, we missed him vs Stoke imo.
(Swan fan) I think you just don't understand what BR style of play is all about? Joe is about keeping possession and is bloody good at it. Not about long balls short quick passes to frustrate and tire your opposition. Your fans sound like you still live in the dark ages.
English football is on its knees because of this kind of attitude "kick it up field" "kick it forward not back" you will soon learn. Stop listening to the clueless idiots on MOTD.
It's takes years for a club to get to grips with this style of play and if you stick to it you will be a big club challenging for a top 4 place in the future because you where on a downward spiral after rafa. TBH I'm surprised that you have adapted so well to it in such a small space of time to the style of BR.

I can't even begin to explain why so much of this is wrong. Let's just say 5 European Cups won playing passing football would suggest you're a complete and utter bellend for writing that drivel. It might take years for division 1 players to get used to playing passing football but it shouldn't at this level.
Ha ha! You are the one who is clueless! We little ol swansea out passed you home and away last season! And stop living in the past every club rips into u for it ha ha! You only managed to take 2 points from us so far and we have taken 5 and not including that humiliating cup display @ home! Any club that changes it's style will need time to adapt BELLEND!
Not at all I would expect a club like you to be above us! It's frustrating when your fans dismiss a statement based upon the success of the club he supports! That IMO is crazy! You are less successful than us in recent years we are a club on the rise where you where a club in decline. I do think you will start to see an improvement this half of the season. The reason why you got in BR he is a modern manager and will push you back into the modern times of football.
excellent post
we were on a downward spiral because of our last owners
The reason we can adapt to pass and possession (Benitez's trademark football) is we still have enough of the first XI and Rafa scouted players who were Rafa's
Do I really need to compare notes here? You're seriously on the Liverpool board trying to patronise us about passing football?
I've watched some of Europes finest passers of the ball, live, at Anfield in front of my very own eyes. Both Liverpool players and players from the great clubs like Ajax, Barcelona, Real, AC Milan....need I go on? We've been playing passing football since before I was born. I grew up watching Dalglish, Souness, Molby, Beardsley, Barnes....again, need I go on? You watch Jan Molby play week in week out and you know what makes a good passer of the football. Joe Allen will be a good player as he matures and I hope he stays at Liverpool but he's not fit to lace the boots of the players I've mentioned.Having history is what makes us wise. I'll presume that your loving the last few years in Swansea's history right? I'm thinking you'll remember these years very fondly for the rest of your life. If you went down next season or the season after would you never talk of the great days of playing at the top level? If you stay up for the next twenty years you'll still look back fondly on the first few seasons. We just have lots more to look back and talk about:

Nice eh.
So in conclusion...yes, you are a complete bellend and what you're writing is an almighty crock of ****
I'm not a Liverpool fan so don't know who signed who. Some of your fans just sound like the plastic swansea fans we have adopted while we have been in the prem. I think next season you will be up there 4 a CL spot. A bigger squad with some experience is all you need
that was my only issue with your post
cheap digs at Rafa when he was responsible for all the quality at the club just gets under my skin
it's the media's fault not yours
Yea I could never understand why he got slated towards the end of his time at Liverpool.
There is a reason why Kenny failed the second time! He was out of touch with modern football! That is my point, you may have a history but that means nothing now history does not win you games! A manager who is up to date with tactics, training and owners with a lot of money does!

I thought the worst thing you did was loose Rafa. Think you miss understood my post a bit. Anyway good luck and hope we beat you again at home this season ha ha!
Well well well. What rock did we crawl out from under?
Your first point makes you come accross as a child which i'm guessing you are.
Less successful than Swansea in recent years?
Erm you sure about that?!! Remind me of what you've won in the last, well, ever? Where have you finished in the League in that period, or in the League now? Can't believe i'm even debating this with you. Swansea have done well but you're getting well carried away.
Sure we're not what we are, but you're kidding yourself if you suddenly think you're permanent top 8 and we're somehow going to fall away from you.
Delutional to the extreme.
Abuse to fellow posters will not be excepted either.
This type of patronising rubbish is why Swansea fans are getting a bad name.
In fairness Bow I did call him a bellend first
I think lecturing Liverpool fans on passing football deserved it though. Won't happen again 
Allen was awesome last night. Henderson was to. Gerrard was to. Lucas was to.
Our midfield is alright really isnt it.
