Season 21/22 The Official Swansea City v Bristol City Match Thread

I like the look of Burns.

He does look like a composed defender, great defensive and attacking option too at 6'5"

 

[ABSwan]

0-1 breakaway.

 

[bakajack]

The hell was Cabango doing there?

 

[Jack2jack]

Oh fvck

 

[Pegojack]

Looked offside by two yards to me.

EDIT: maybe not, TV is saying he was level.

Its just pass pass pass after the 3rd or 4th pass theres no progression its rubbish and im convinced its not the way forward and this against one of the lesser sides

 

[CygnusX1]

Their keeper is a bit of a flapper

And we don’t want to cross it

 

[Longlostjack]

Where is the threat from Piroe?

 

[bakajack]

For all the good work that Cabango does when asked to be a conventional defender, every game he has a hospital pass in him and this time he sold Piroe right up the river and not only that but his little dribble had left him a good 30 yards out of position. Manning couldn't touch him or it was gonna be a red because of no cover.

Yep onside.

We haven't been particularly bad but we can't lose this one.

Just before they scored, Manning got the ball, plenty of players in the box and I expected him to put it in. Instead he stops, passes back and the result was them scoring.

Ive seen it several times this season its only our CB's are the ones willing to drive forward through the midfield and if they are caught out there is a massive hole at the back, the CB's doing the midfielders job.

The fault for that goal doesn't lie with Manning. Yes he could have crossed it rather than recycling possession, but the man at fault was Cabango. Dribbling up to just outside the box and then losing it with an awful pass while then miles out of position. Manning couldn't even take a tactical foul for the team because of no cover it would have been a nailed on red.

 

[Bryanswan]

This, he has been poor for weeks and offered almost nothing. Is a shame we have no real attackers on the bench.

 

[FelindreJack]

Wtf was Cabango doing there? What a stupid goal to give away.
