Swansea City (Away) - Sunday 1st May 12:00

[an tha]

It's not meaningless though is it? Not for the 2000 fans who travelled there at the crack of dawn and not when we could still finish as low as 8th.

 

Obviously Thursday is the priority but that doesn't mean the players can just go through the motions for the remaining league games.

It is all a part of the shitness of modern football...

 

When we won the treble in 1984 players played every game including replays in league cup...and put in a proper shift every time playing nearly 70 games...none of this resting players shite and prioritising this over that etc.

 

Best team every game and win.

 

As for today it is inevitable we are shite...it is raining and horrible and our soft as shite players don't fancy it at all.

[Special K]

So, what time does the Leicester game kick off?

[jimmycase]

Was always going to be a very difficult task given the number of youngsters in the team. Its virtually our U21 side.

 

Class tribute by swansea before the game with that statement read out over the tannoy. And class with the 27th minute tribute too. Thank you Swansea City FC.

[magicrat]

Big Ben to bring the pain to Swansea in the second half.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Or to us.

It's grim to think facing a 2 goal deficit at HT we are facing the prospect of Benteke coming in to try and rescue the game . There is hope and then there is Benteke

[stringvest]

Why is Coutinho even playing in this obviously meaningless game?

 

 

I agree, and he's been one of the worst on the pitch.  Take him off in case he's needed for next week.

[mouse1989]

How long can this fraud remain in this job?

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

One of, if not the worst half's I've seen all season. Gutless. Disjointed. Poop.

[The Golden Eel]

Wish I had something better to do...

[Babb'sBurstNad]

Poor half - Ward, Clyne and Lovren at least looked conscious. Skrtel passes like he's trying to get rid of a bomb, Ojo's feet are too far away from his brain and Chirivella has all the strength of a child in an Oxfam advert.

 

May as well stick Benteke on and complete the eye aids of this display.

[stringvest]

that second goal was a fucking joke.  

[Arl arse]

Fuck this, Going to get the car washed.

[lebron]

Our boys didn't do the basics right, only magnified by the likes of Coutinho, Ibe and Sturridge failing as well.. Think we lost the ball about 20 times going forward in that half, absolutely zero ball retention. Even as poor a side as Swansea will punish that eventually. 

 

I've had enough of Skrtel too. Can't be a coincidence that Lovren is like night and day when playing with him and Kolo/Sakho.

 

Hopefull Chirivella (and Ojo) will bounce back from this. Ojo has a lot bigger potential, but I still think there's a player in Chirivella. His problems today stem from lack of movement ahead of him as well as him being nervous and overrun.

[stringvest]

Hang on, don't give up.  We're going

 

[kalasoma]

I wish they'd hurry up and get this over with. I want to watch Leicester beat Utd.

[bonesman]

Fuck this, Going to get the car washed.

 

Dont do it mate, its torture right I know, but we've done it before.

[Ne Moe Imya]

I think this game is really illustrating just how important it is to control the centre of the park.

 

Stewart and Chirivella (especially) are having nightmares, and it's having a knockon effect all over the pitch.  The fullbacks are pinned back and useless in attack, the strikers retreat to get into the game, and the centre backs are panicking every time they get on the ball.  We obviously don't really care about the result but if we don't want it to be an embarrassment we need Lucas or Allen on for Chirivella.

[Gym Beglin]

It's the only way to know about the ability of Chirivella etc, sink or swim.

 

Ibe is fucking awful isn't he. Such a shame.

[Captain]

Chirivella and Ojo really need to step it up in the 2nd half, I wouldn't even be surprised if one is off at half time.

[Shitty Arse]

Why didn't Skrtel try and tackle him for that second goal?

Apparently the lad hadn't scored for a year! Pisses me off how we make these no mark teams look like world beaters.

I just hope we get through the second half without any injuries and at least look as though we are remotely arsed.

Load of shite!

[stringvest]

Thank fuck for that.

[Gym Beglin]

I think I genuinely dislike Skrtel, not sure how he's managed it considering I've never met him, but there we go.

watch Coutinho's non challenge, then he turns his back to play and just lets the lad run away and score.  No wonder he got hooked.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Get the cunt on some fat burners, right now!

[an tha]

You know things are grim when you have two captains in a game and they are skrtel and lucas

This a thousand times over. Centre midfield is the spine of any team and our one has scoliosis.
