Bloody hell, Lawro has us down for a 2-0 win! Pretty sure I just saw the sky splitting... The end is nigh... Swansea v Leicester (17:30 BST) There's been an element of hard luck about Swansea's recent form but, after winning their first three league games of the season, the upshot is that they have now gone five without a victory. The Swans do not seem able to see out a victory - they led against Newcastle and Stoke but only picked up one point for those two games. But Leicester have hit a sticky patch since their big win over Manchester United last month, and the goals have dried up for Leonardo Ulloa after his good start to the campaign. So I think Swansea will get back on track here but, to do so, they will need more of a cutting edge to go with their nice, attractive football. Lawro's prediction: 2-0 Mark and Karen's prediction: 3-1
Fab Rangel , Fernandez ,Williams ,Taylor Routledge ,Shelvey , Carroll , Ki, Montero Bony. This is who Id start Saturday , nice balance.I liked what Carroll brought last game.Montero must start and Siggy needs a rest.Bring Dyer and Siggy on later , and not with only 5 minutes left .
Not sure but even if he is id keep going with Fernandez...at least a few more games to get a good read on him.Hasnt really impressefd so.far but that doesnt mean he wont
Fernandez is a regular of Argentina and is a decent player. It's taking time but he should come good imo. Amat was great before his injury though.
Personally, I can't see Carroll starting ahead of Shelvey. Montero ahead of Dyer or Routledge is a possibility, but I'm not sure which one I would leave out. Sigurdsson will surely start as well. Or maybe he'll keep Montero for a full game at Anfield next week.
Carroll instead of Siggy , Shelvey would start in my team .My train of thought is Siggy needs a rest and to get hungry.Carroll will free up Ki to move up field a tad Carroll could be our answer to DM if given some time ,looked a bit like Britton out there against Stoke.Just my opinion. Carroll looked good with the understanding of the way the team passes
'LessTar Sitty which was later shortened to Lesta Sitty'..... Nice one, good to have some humour around here for once. Not sure what to say regarding tomorrows game, but Leicester always seemed to get the better of us in the Championship, another physical team, though I hear they concentrate on passing and pace more these days, and from what I have seen of them this season, they will be no pushovers, I hope Williams wakes up for this game and sorts our back line out, as Liecester can do some serious damage. I'm going for a 2-1 win, but anything less will now put some serious pressure on Monk, and if he wants to help himself, then he needs to make the Subs early if the game dictates, come on Monk, you can do it, prove the doubters wrong mate...............
I know it's 'i' before 'e' except after 'c' Phil but I'm afraid Leicester is an exception to the rule
We haven't got a bad run of form against Leicester certainly at home and tomorrow we'll continue the trend , a solid win with a performance to match
2010/2011 Mon 03 Jan Leicester City 2 - 1 Swansea City League Sat 23 Oct Swansea City 2 - 0 Leicester City League 2009/2010 Sat 16 Jan Swansea City 1 - 0 Leicester City League Sat 02 Jan Leicester City 2 - 1 Swansea City F.A. Cup Sat 08 Aug Leicester City 2 - 1 Swansea City League That tells me they had the edge on us in the Championship!....................
Leicester fan in peace. I wouldn't say that suggests you have the edge on us but more like home advantage = win. We seem incapable of winning in Wales so don't see that changing. Unfortunately I feel it'll be at least 2-0 Swans if not 3-0. We have only scored once away from home all season and even lost at Newcastle so hopes for this one well and truly none existent
I hope for our sakes you're right. If we don't get 3 points today it will be carnage on here tonight.
"We have only scored once away from home all season" Toon hadn't scored away in 2014 but put 2 past us at the Liberty. Let's hope there's no repeat. Got a good feeling about today though.
We have always been very generous to teams that are struggling with some issue or other, though you seem to be doing ok, you are only 2 points behind us, so that suggest it will be an even contest, I certainly will not take you boys for granted! All the best after today.................
