22nd Jan PL, The Swans better Duck, the Liver Birds are in town. Swansea v Liverpool

[Guest Pistonbroke]

An extra rest will do us good, Swansea didn't have that due to playing in the cup last night, plus their squad is shite. 

[chris71]

Expecting us to pump them hard. 4-3 or 5-4 depending on which smoke for hands keeper we go with.

[johnsusername]

2-5.

[lifetime fan]

It’ll be a spanking for them.

[Chip Butty]

Not taking the 3 points from this, makes last Sunday almost a wasted venture. You could even say this game is even more important than the city game. A game more for the heart, the will, the belief - than the 3 points. 

[Razoray]

We wil score 5

[Carvalho Diablo]

Hoots man, it's the palid wee bairn Olly McBurnie, The Loch Ness Tosser.

[Thoth]

For the first time in ages I am confident of a clean sheet so I will go 4-3 red men

[TheHowieLama]

If Virgil 4 plays we win 3-1 walking away - if he does not play we win 3-1 nervy last 20 minutes.

[Jairzinho]

0-0.

[KMD7]

High scoring 0-0 draw

[s(k)aturation]

8 days rest, everyone front-and-centre for a bumper away day.  0-7.

Never forget after Shankly died John Toshack THEN Swansea manager during an emotional minute's silence wore the red shirt with number 10 on the back as a tribute in the home game October 3, 1981 after his passing during the week of the match.

Yes, that was superb.

 

I remember the BBC radio commentary of that moment by Peter Jones (educated at Swansea Grammar School) - with his lovely hint of a Welsh lilt - was especially marvellous.

[Total Longo]

Peter Jones' post-Hillsborough "...and the suns shines now" report is a thing of hugely moving beauty, it always gets to me, every time i hear it.  

[rubble-rouser]

1-1 

 

Karius (o.g.) 77 mins

Karius 90 mins + 3

 

(Swansea missed penalty 90 mins + 5)

[sir roger]

Always remember Gordon Strachan putting it quite simply after we had battered his Coventry team. 'If you are playing a team with better players & they match you for effort and application they are going to win the great majority of the games '. Put the same effort in as last Sunday & we will win comfortably.

[aws]

1-1 

 

Karius (o.g.) 77 mins

Karius 90 mins + 3

 

(Swansea missed penalty 90 mins + 5)

Agree with r-r 100%.

[Numero Veinticinco]

0-0 score draw.

[TheBitch]

Can't see us scoring less than 4.

 

0-3

[ZonkoVille77]

We'll struggle to a 2 1 win.

 

We're fuckin shite.

[thegreatelephant]

i don't give a fuck. Mr Piston is doing the business every fucking week. same rules apply

[bonesman]

Apologies if previously posted

 

 

[AngryOfTuebrook]

Would be much more confident if it wasn't a Monday - playing after everyone else with either a big chance to make ground or need to win to keep pace is not something we always do well.

I'm actually happier with the extra couple of days to get City out of our system.  Psychologically and tactically, it's a big turnaround to go from playing the best team in the league to playing the worst.  I think we'll be prepared for this one; moreso than we would be if it were, for example, on 12:30 on Saturday.

[VladimirIlyich]

Yes, that was superb.

Peter Jones was the Dylan Thomas of football radio commentary. I was about to use 'Shakespeare' instead but that would be sacrilege to a Welshman.
