[Pegojack]

genuinely can’t work out our formation?

Looks like a 5-3-2, with the full backs expected to support when going forward.

Key v Doku

There should be a law against it

From what I’ve seen, got to stay close to Doku, niggle and make him annoyed. Give him space and back off and you’re dead meat.

Could be a long night on our right. Would be the same on our left if Tymon’s playing…I haven’t dared check the team sheets yet.

Ok I’ve checked the team sheets…how weird…I will say they don’t look as scary as I feared. Probably as I never watch the PL so have no idea of their current megabuck racehorses.

 

[bakajack]

Looks like a three at the back for us tonight

OS lists Tymon as playing as a winger alongside Inoussa

Not even on the bench which may suggest resting a niggle?

Is Inoussa up front do we think? Or is Tymon playing in front of SS?

It’s not immediately obvious to me.

 

[LaJollaJack]

Flown in for this.

Expectations are flying. In so many different ways.

Change is imminent….. watch this space.

You hear it first on Swansea’s preeminent Football forum……

He’s our best crosser of a ball in fairness.

You’re increasingly sounding like one of those cheap star sign reports.

‘Change is imminent’.

That could mean absolutely anything couldn’t it.

‘You will make changes to your life after a chance encounter’…

I heard Haaland is using his free time tonight to go up the Swansea Valley to meet up with Master Michu in Dan-yr-Ogof Showcaves. He is showing him the ways of the ‘Force’ not that he needs it.

Key v Doku

There should be a law against it

There is a law, it's the 3rd law of motion (Newtons 3 laws of motion) which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction

 

[JackSomething]

Looks like our normal formation. My initial guess was that Samuels-Smith would be on the wing, but Tymon makes more sense.

 

[monmouth]

By a long, long way. Unless Widell can cross.

 

[bakajack]

I just hope this game isn't used as a yard stick to bash Widell with since he is highly unlikely to see a huge amount of the ball in advanced positions. His real chance should have come at Charlton and I hope it still does

On another note its great to see Santos back on the bench for the first time since his nasty pre season knee injury

That’s a good point. I hadn’t spotted that.

Great to see him back.
