Dreadful - Williams sums up Swans performance but all must shoulder the blame

After his criticism of the capitulation against Sunderland last week , they should have been firing out of the blocks yesterday. Instead we had another gutless, clueless , and half arsed performance again, against a team that hadn't won for 14 or 15 games , and that is simply down only 1 person, the manager.

The dressing room needs a clear out.

There are too many players there who have by now seen off several coaches. The dressing room lacks character, it lacks leaders, it lacks basic standards, it lacks a pair of balls.

We can change Williams, sure, but that changes none of the above. Martin, Duff and now him. None of them could get a tune out of this lot for very long.

The swamp needs draining.

Oh for an Ashley Williams type of player right now.

Let's be honest , i don't think we have many disruptive players in the squad anymore in the mould of Ntcham, Obafemi or Paterson. It's clear to me that Williams is obviously unable to motivate this group of players or, after caving in against Sunderland last week have the necessary skill to get them firing out of the blocks in their next game against woeful Hull.

I'm not really sticking up for him as I've really had enough of all this backwards walking pace shite that he is either training them to do or not trying to eradicate, and his selections, substitutions and refusal to take any responsibility, but Hull weren't actually dreadful yesterday. They looked ok to me. Whether that is new manager bounce or just some regained self belief when they realised we couldn't be arsed I don't know.

Maybe some ridiculous sense of superiority meant we underestimated them as they were bottom. When you're in that mindset, it's hard to get out. Still in a large part down to the manager to stop.

Disruptive players is one thing, but I'm not talking about that.

I'm talking about players who pick and choose their level of performance as and when it suits them. Players who jib out of tackles, players who look like men possessed against Cardiff but look like pussycats against Hull. Players who take the easy option, always, like Grimes and Fulton. Players who hide and don't want the ball when the going gets tough.

We've got a pathetic weak willed squad.

We was really spoilt with the likes of Dorus, Williams, Monk, Tate, Rangel, Britton all leaders in their own right

I've got to get this off my chest about the lack of will and mental strength of the squad:

(hysterical hot take incoming)

I tell you when they appeared to find some resolve and get some attitude: When Duff came in and tried to shake things up. THEN they were up in arms, leaking to the press about how unhappy they were with things. The 'senior players' were all about laying themselves on the line for cause then, weren't they? Then they got what they wanted and Duff left. Then, the same 'senior players....*coughGrimescough*' were also fully behind a move to bring the comfort blanket of Williams back for a soothing taste of what they hoped was Diet Martinball. They were full of vim and vigour then.

They saw off the threat and are back to the soothing sounds of snoring from the stands as they're secure in their roles of passing back and forth to each other without a threat at all to the racket they've been partaking in for the past few years. Go back to sleep Swansea, everything is in control, no root and branch changes needed here, just listen to the tippy tappy of Grimes and Darling passing to each other and watch the light fade away...

Williams is starting to sound like a broken record, QPR could turn out to be a defining moment if things go badly...

Indeed, with the good run that they are on

And they’ve picked up recently haven’t they?

Have to beat them at home now imo. It’s just been yap yap yap f**kwittery through Leeds, Sunderland and Hull. The lazy sackless excuse ridden workshy Jessie’s need to put a 90+ minute shift in.

Aye, I see Captain Grimes has stated that "There are no excuses, we were just not good enough" copy and paste bolloxs again...

Maybe there are some players who wouldn’t actually benefit from being promoted and they know it.
