Season 23/24 | The Official Match Thread | Swansea City v Morecambe FC | FA Cup Third Round

Its all very slow at the moment and Yates isn't doing much to offer an out ball or any hold up play to make space for runners.
Bolasie beats his man for the first time and tries to curl one into the top corner, only just over the bar

Going well in Sheffield...

Bolasie was offside that time, but Patino really is the only source of creativity we have. I hope Williams can convince Arsenal we'll play him enough to keep him for the rest of the season.

 

[Pegojack]

Scum 3-0 down after missing two penalties. Shame.

 

[bakajack]

Cooper isn't offering a lot in the attacking midfield spot at the moment.
Parker seems like he has a bit of pace about him but we are moving it too slow to let him isolate his fullback or to get a chance to play it in behind them for him to get him into a footrace.

 

[K23]

It’s just so bloody slow.

But it's there anyone on the bench that could speed things up? Don't think so.

 

[CygnusX1]

Morecambe will be very happy with this. Although we’ve dominated possession we haven’t created much at all (sound familiar?)

 

[Blackpooljack]

By Christ Luke has his work cut out with this lot

 

[bakajack]

Wouldn't be surprised if we make a change or two at half time.
I would take off Yates and Cooper for Kukharevych and Cullen and go for a good old fashioned 442

 

[sainthelens]

Absolutely fckn dreadful.

 

[Nocountryforoldjack]

The spirit of Russ is back in the building

 

[Swanjaxs]

Yannick Bolasie is right up there with David N'Gog in the roll of shame for me...

 

[Pegojack]

Wouldn't be surprised if we make a change or two at half time.

This in spades, plus Pato on for Allen. We're going to need some dribbling creativity to get past their team bus.

Naughton plays like we're winning 3-0 in a friendly. Technically far above almost everyone else on the pitch but in no rush to do anything about it.

Waiting on a past-it Bolasie to come up with some magic at the moment. We're got a defensive left back, a defensive mid at right back and a 17 year old right back on the wing, so a lack of spark maybe unsurprising (also Yates looks like he aspires to L2 football).

 

[Proper Jack]

‘This is a library’, is the standout, along with ‘Ged Brennan’s barmy army’.

This is all too reminiscent of Martin’s Meh. Sluggish, pedestrian, walking boring football.
Massive possession to no avail. Against league 2’s 17th placed team.

Williams needs to turn this around, ‘prompto’.
