Flip Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Be more than happy with a point. Swansea away is a tough one, but need a point from this if we want to show we mean business this season. Do expect a loss by the odd goal, however. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 We need to claw any draws we can in this beginning run IMO. Build some confidence. We've many tough fixtures ahead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the fixtures like after this, Man Yoo and Arsenal? Yup then WHam and Watford before Chelsea. Can definitely see us in the relegation zone after 7 games.

Flip Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Urgh what a disgusting start Really took a bit of my excitement away for this season. Should have at least 5 p after 7 games, but I'm still in Pardew-mode. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Realistically we are going to need to win some games against teams we are not expected to, otherwise it could look pretty shitty irrelevant of how well we might play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 When you look at the team Swansea have managed to assemble it really is outstanding work. This will be a hell of a tough game. They have threats everywhere. Have really been impressed with Gomis too. Really should have signed him when we seemed to take forever to get it sorted. Messed up big time there.

KaKa Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Have some confidence that McClaren won't s*** himself if we lose a couple like Pardew though. No doubt. We'll stick to the way we play and look to get better. Very refreshing. We won't suddenly start seeing Cisse on the wing, and left -backs everywhere, or some nonsense.

sixx Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 We can win this but I'll be happy with a draw. I really want to see Sissoko and Wijnaldum pair up in the center. Krul Janmaat Mbemba Colo Dummett Sissoko Wini Ayoze Siem Aarons Cisse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 We gave Southampton a good game and could gave and should have won. Southampton are better than these, we can give them a good game if we turn up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotus Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Gini & Moussa are gonna give these guys some problems. Montero isn't going to give Neil Taylor much support and Moussa will run over him. Ki was their only midfielder to offer something to their defence consistently. Also, Ayew played pretty narrow. We could have some joy wide. We will need an excellent performance from the CMs though as they may get outnumbered. Still think Colo will get bummed though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 They are not that good Said before Southampton that we were overrating them and i say the same about Swansea. They are good and better than us but just like every team outside the top 4 they are not that good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I'd take a point right now but I don't think we'll get one. Narrow defeat but if we continue to try and play good football and move the ball around then I'll take it as a positive. Need to build on the encouraging signs of Southampton and not revert to type of we lose a few, it's going to happen eventually. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
