    How many days did it take you to compose that little gem? Really adds to the stature of this board. Such insight, such debate, such wit. You should be proud.

    That's about par for the course for the replica gun,ivor. But he only ever fires blanks! Doesn't have a grain of gunpowder in his make-up.

    As one of the Laudrup"fanboys"he is so disparaging about,he can rest assured that I'm not going anywhere.

    Most football fans would say not getting results against cannon fodder is what will end it all, you are comparing a 4-3 loss at Anfield and a 3-1 loss to Napoli over two legs with 3-0 losses to Fulham and West Ham, your logic is terribly unsound.

    Since when was it possible to have a debate with trolls? Mikra is a Laudrup fan, not a Swansea fan. He will never admit Laudrup was relegating the club and will never admit it was in the best interests of the club to get rid of him. All Swans fans who have followed the team for years know it had to be done.

    Most are comparing an injured team to and an uninjured team

    Shelvey, Michu and Britton missing last night so GM is doing more than ok.

    I was a great admirer of ML but the performances have been like night and day in the last few weeks.

    Still think Palace will be extremely difficult and totally different to Liverpool and Napoli who have pressure to play and attack leaving space. Pulis was soaking it all up last night ready for Sunday.

    Don't tell me what I am. Obviously I've been following Laudrups career for years. It's not , on the other hand, impossible for me to see what was happening, I was shocked firstly when Swansea was playing st. Gallen away, later against west ham.
    I think the club would have been better off sacking him after the (eventual) failure against Cardiff. As you know I thought the sacking was hysterical (or based in off-pitch matters).
    Swansea hasn't been playing better or differently since. On contrary based on pool and Napoli games.

    Oh, by the way, the fact I'm debating football with you now proves that I'm involved enough in Swansea matters, that I won't be discarded with whatever names you're going to call me.
    I might not be at one-eyed as some on here, and there is a limit for what I will take.
    Debate is fine please stand back from mud throwing.

    Get the excuses in ready for Sunday <whistle>, after the last 5 performances I expect nothing but a win on Sunday if not questions will need to be asked and I'm serious .Palace are reliant on moving the ball forward and have players now who do likewise ,if they adopt that policy Sunday then their there for the taking . If their set up for a draw which is a distinct possibility then we may find it hard to break them down but still confident of a win , their supporters along with Ince are confident of a result for them even though we embarrassed them in our first meeting at their place so lets make sure their disappointed .

    Hopefully that is the case. We played like this against Cardiff and Stoke and got two good results.

    I've noticed that too; Chico suddenly looks a lot more defensively sound, perhaps with the exception of the Liverpool game where the whole back four made some dodgy mistakes, albeit against the best attack in the league. Agree with a lot of your post in general actually, good to see a bit of nuance around here at the moment aside from all the mud slinging <ok>

    Exactly Cherry, these were the two important fixtures for Monk to get points and we came away with 4 out of a possible 6 points. Beat Palace on Sunday and Monk will have taken 7 from 9 points against the teams around us. Anything against the likes of Liverpool, Napoli and Everton should always be considered a bonus, as I don't care if we lose against those type of sides provided the performances have been there and we've given a good account of ourselves, something which nobody can deny.
