It's a shame Page wasted his last sub with the Broadhead - Brooks switch. If he'd waited until a minute before the end he could have put another penalty taker on in place of a defender. The Mepham red was the perfect opportunity, less than a minute remaining. Or even just kept Brooks on, I'd...

This is 100% the reason I dislike possession-focussed systems, and this game plan is near enough what I would use instead. Put the ball in the opponents third, if you don't have it, press and win it, then shoot. Then do it again until the scoreboard looks right. Then keep doing it until the...

The commentators job is to make it sound good even when it's not. It's an entertainment product after all, so they have to pick up the slack when the match itself fails to deliver

Ollie Cooper isn't it? The best Allen replacement in the squad. The team's most energetic midfielder, tons of quality, and as good and willing a tackler as Fulton or Allen. Not as experienced as either but there's always swings and roundabouts.

:ROFLMAO:

Blackburn will be emotionally and physically exhausted after their midweek extra time and pens cup defeat, and they played a strong team for that game. Swansea should win comfortably.

This is the team that has been brewing for over a month, but suppressed by having to play opponents which are stronger. Now the opposition is more even, the dam is bursting

This is why I would sell him and use the money to buy a fast CB. A lot of people really rate his passing, and he's a solid passer, but he's Lake Placid when this team needs Niagra Falls

Get Cooper in there I reckon

I'm glad I'm not the only one feeling positive 😂 I had my reservations about Williams largely because of his poor defensive record. I accept that his teams still won't set any clean sheet records but all the stuff @CroJack pointed out more than makes up for it. The tough opposition is now off...

The high line is the one aspect of Williams tactics that makes no sense to me. It's not even a risk/reward proposition. It's an obvious weakness that provides zero benefit. WhoScored lists "play the offside trap" as a style of play for Swansea, but they don't even do that. I wish they would -...

Tough fixture stretch over and this was the best loss I've seen in ages. Myk finally gets his shirt dirty and Darling's back. Plenty to look forward to.

Leif Davis should have been sent off and Big Myk must be crying watching some of those first half crosses. Regardless of the score, this game is there for the taking. They're as cocky as they are dirty, but they're not that good.
