Swansea City (A) Carling Cup - Tuesday 14th August 2007

Well. Will we score? 10 -15 minutes to go.

dont sound good on WM does it?

[coxy_saddler]

Got it on WM too..Caniro was cack by the sounds of it! Nicholls has come on got 4 corners in 5 minutes :lol: I really rate nicholls..Hopefully DD will use him more often. Dobson ' off the pace ' by the commentators..But the second half it's the same again we've come out all guns blazing and going for it ! Come on lads get this goal!

Centre mid really worries me im afraid to say... we are in real need of a centre midfielder (even more than a striker). When is Dobson ever "on the pace"?

Mooney for captain.

Ditto!

And yeah i know what you mean..I have liked sonner so far..Likes to the pass the ball well, Made some nice passes on saturday and gets stuck in but so does dobbo..But sometimes he does seem of the pace and i just think we need that bright spark in the middle of the park who can create alot more and has got pace..Which freklington could of done imo.

Dobson " so one paced" Quote W M :cry: :cry:

Never rated Dobson. Just NOT creative

I agree but if he had the right person alongside him he doesn't need to be.

There are defensive midfielders and attacking midfielders. Sonner isn't as attacking as I'd like but he is creative.

Surrey I'm back in the Fellows Stand " come and see me some time" :wink: :shock:

well... his main job isn't to be creative... it is to break up the opponents attacks and help the defense.

[sj]

I ain't gonna argue :wink:

Did you see Dawkins last night SJ.

Have to admit, I'd be quite disappointed if we lose to this Swansea outfit and its not sounding too hopeful so far.

They started the match with just 4 of the starting 11 from Saturday, we really should be looking at beating reserve team outfits of fellow divisional rivals.

Even now, halfway through the 2nd half, they've made all 3 subs and still only have 6 of their starting 11 on the pitch.

What's worrying is the lack of anything thats been created to be honest, bar Mooney's missed one on one at 0-0.

[coxy_saddler]

Plenty of set pieces..But been very poor.

[sj]

God no.

Bet he was good

Ermmm, without pointing out the obvious, he isn't really meant to be.

Its like asking Jason Koumas to play the role of midfield hatchet man or Alex Nicholls to be the traditional big no 9 centre forward.

[latviancheese]

Turned it off now, crap.

[sj]

Stu-- but he could be "two paced"

[Surrey Saddler]

God no.

Bet he was good

Simplistic, actually. By the way, is there a footy match on now?

[sj]

Surrey is it me or am I funny after two pints? I know its me :oops:

[asimpson]

To be fair though Swansea havent had too many key shots on goal. Its just that we have nothing going forward. If Mooney gets injured we are in trouble

[sj]

Surrey-- I love the--- Friends Meeting House, by the way

That's because Swansea started with just 4 of their starting 11, I'd be bloody worried if their reserve team was creating a number of chances against us.

Spose you are right

[sj]

We are going to get one in the last seconds. Come the lads

[Surrey Saddler]

Time for Newsnight soon guys. Hope its Emily Maitlis. By the way, Walsall are "throwing more men forward"

[sj]

Surrey-- No miss Walk :shock:

[asimpson]

Ah Well, Lets hope we can get something on saturday. This result may get some walsall fans to lower thier expectations for the comign season. Lower-Mid Table has to be our realistic aim this season

[sj]

Well-- it's goodnight from me :x

[Surrey Saddler]

Surrey-- No miss Walk :shock:

So, if we lose, that's a double whammy

[Diddy_P]

WE'RE OUT

[asimpson]

oh no 2-0. Thats undeserved

[Magic Man Fan]

Time for Newsnight soon guys. Hope its Emily Maitlis. By the way, Walsall are "throwing more men forward"

That'll be one forward then. :roll:










































Sorry, thought I was tinned. :D

2-0 all over.

[sj]

I said the lads would get one :oops:

[Stu]

No Troy Deeney either, very strange, surely should have been given 10 minutes at least.

Interestingly I see Orient grabbed a superb away victory 2-1 at QPR tonight... They go into Saturday's game with 2 good away wins, we go in with a decent draw and a disappointing defeat.

2-0 Swansea, Jason Scotland.
