Season 20/21: Swansea City v Preston Match Thread

[PSumbler]

Monk was far better than Bennett and was a better centre back than Guehi (who is a better footballer). Ayew was absolutely not better than Dobbie (but that’s not the equivalent position anyway) and Woodman was absolutely not better or anywhere near as good actually as Doris.

Monk a better centre back than Guehi? That is genuinely ridiculous. As is thinking that Stephen Dobbie (who is a player I really rated) was in any way, shape or form better than Andre Ayew.

You're not coming across well here I'm afraid.

I would look at it the other way mind

I would not put Ayew into that promotion winning team ahead of Dobbie, it wouldn't work

The lazy bastard would just not fit in the team

 

[DJack]

Thank goodness we're only playing the North end of Preston.

Imagine if we played the whole of Preston.

It's grim up north...It's even more grim here currently.

 

[ThurrockJack]

Do you think the strong wind is affecting the game?

There has been a whiff of a strong southernly wind every time we take to the pitch.

 

[airedale]

Oh good, a goal on the way.

 

[Longlostjack]

Subs Cooper!

Genuinely ridiculous.

DDV better than Woodman
Rangel and Taylor better than Roberts and either Manning or Bidwell
Ash and Monk better than any two centre backs we have
Leon better than Grimes
Pratley better than Fulton
Dryer and Sinclair better than Ayew and Lowe
Dobbie better than Houlihane
Borini better than Whittaker

It’s not even close.

I'm not saying our players are world beaters, they clearly are not but you're defence of Cooper is utterly baffling, he's a dreadful manager.

I’ve already said I don’t like him. I’m just amazed that people can’t see the squad we have is bloody awful. People talk as though it’s a racehorse in need of fine tuning and training. It’s a cart horse - no amount of training will turn it into much.

Scotty on her comes the goal.

 

[thefranchise]

On come Sinclair to score

 

[bakajack]

I thought we were using Whittaker as a striker why is he always on the touchline

Because Cooper thinks it's a good idea to play a striker as a winger and a winner as a striker

 

[Nocountryforoldjack]

Made me laugh

One hour and no shots on target

Hard to score with that approach

Cooper must be aware of these stats , week after week, game after game
P45 looming

Top six finish means he's not going any where I'm afraid sadly.

 

[monmouth]

Over 340 minutes without scoring a goal.

ALmost 430 - we scored in the 3rd minute at Luton remember

7 hours without a goal - we average a shot on target less than once every hour during that time

That made me laugh. There'll be another one along in a minute..

Name 6 better champ squads

Absolutely shameful that, stats like that just shows the manager needs to be given the boot.

 

[PSumbler]

Ah here comes the former Swans player to finish the afternoon off for us

74 minutes in no subs from a side that hasnt managed a shot on target. Beggars belief

 

[Blackpooljack]

Who is going to come on for us in the 92nd min ?
