    This is as poor as Swansea has been for a while .......... nowt to fear here.

    Bit by bit our team is becoming good to watch.

    Going for a draw. For all they beat Southampton last time out they aren't the same team without Bony and Sigurdsson. Im hoping we are full of confidence and can carry another good result into qpr game

    Me too mate. I'm not really expecting anything from this game, a draw would be good and win would be a fantastic result and a sign we are on the up.

    Very "Julio Arca" mind! Hope he starts tomorrow with that sort of impetus. Cracking and very talented player (Although, when you look at reports, we haven't really had any important injuries... I mean 2 of our 3 most creative players have been missing all season bar a handful of games... And Ricky looked every bit what we've missed... Maybe this will also be what AJ needs to spur him on - he's had so little competition for his style of player that maybe he needs this... 2 of him, Giaccherini and Alvarez would be class IMO

    Only saw highlights of the Fulham game, but it looked very much like Alvarez and Giacci had formed an understanding together, very impressive to watch and hope it continues. Some very neat passing football from them.

    Yeah but Giaccherini's doubtful after picking up some bruising on Tuesday night (according to This Link anyhow)

    Yeh, I saw that mate, should be OK if it's only bruising, but will Gus risk him? he does seem to be made of glass like.

    I thought Jonno was out because of an operation on his thumb. He`s not a goalie ffs. He should be ok as long as he doesn`t copy Elmo.

    It was down to infection risk meaning he must have just had the op before the last game.

    Hopefully Brown comes in virgin boy and I hope Gus plays giaccherini in place of Gomez.

    Go for it Gus. Show some balls

    This will be a toughie, as Swansea are no mugs. If we come away with a point I'll be happy.

    The Swans have so little going forward. JonJo Shelvey in the hole is always a worry, and he did have a beauty last week. Tbh, it was their only chance the entire game.

    Gomis is no Bony, and has struggled to make any impact. Siggy being out is a huge loss, and has diminished their attack substantially.

    Gus needs to go for it. Tactics will be everything. Sure, they can score on the break, but they are there for the taking. Two wins in a row will put the squad in a great state of mind for some very favorable upcoming fixtures. Could be the start of a fantastic run.

    No reason not to go for it.
