triggs Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Hopefully with Tiote alongside him Colback can drop his sit-ridiculously-deep-and-only-pass-it-5-yards-sideways act and get forward a bit. Wijnaldum should be better off further forward but I worry that he won't see much of the ball with Cisse up top, who cannot lead the line to save his life. It won't be Cisse's fault if/when Wijnaldum barely touches the ball for 90 minutes again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Sorry like. That is fucking nuts making that sack of shite captain. Sorry Rafa - I'm out. If it means he tries harder, is it not worth it? Nobody in the squad deserves it for their good performances, might as well try something different. Aye like dropping the mercenary cunt. For who? They are all shite man.

Jayson Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Seems a very dodgy starting line up tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Tiote & Colback I'm guessing after the last few games Rafa just wants to stay in the game for the first hour or so, those two with an improved back four should at least mean Swansea have to do something to score a goal. Then maybe we'll go for it in the second half if there's still no goals. It's going to be dire to watch but I can understand his thinking. I still wouldn't pair those two together though.

Minhosa Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Despite what you'll want with Sissoko being dropped or not he's still our only outlet on counter and pace on the wings. But him being capable of it doesn't matter when he never provides it anymore and instead just stops our attacks. Well for everyone's sake I hope he proves everyone wrong and is MOTM. How many chances does he need? He's been fucking garbage for ages. One good game every few months doesn't suddenly make him an asset. Accommodating cunts like him is a major factor in our downfall.

Odear Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 I'm happy Shelvey is dropped, he was rank last week and pretty much has been since his debut for us. I think Gini will score today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 It really doesn't matter about the team selection at this point tbh. They're all varying degrees of wank anyway. I trust the manager. Plus he's made changes to improve us in every match so far. This is basically it. He could justifiably drop anyone at this point, just hope he has a plan and the players aren't too shit to implement it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varadi Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Rafa's taking a bit of a risk with that bench. Should be OK - Dummett can cover centre half, a few options at full back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 It's not ideal but that team gives us a better chance of keeping their score count down at least...just need Sissoko, Gini, Cisse to produce. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Apart from the inclusion of Tiote I don't mind that too much. Obviously I'd rather Mitro and de Jong squeezed in there somewhere but Cisse should always play at home, imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 I would have rather had Shelvey or De Jong in Gini's position. Gini is a waste of time at this point. Sissoko is useless but at least he does try to do something, even though it never comes off. Gini is just pathetic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But him being capable of it doesn't matter when he never provides it anymore and instead just stops our attacks. Well for everyone's sake I hope he proves everyone wrong and is MOTM. Hope so, like others have said Rafa's focus seems to be on total defence and hope Cisse can nick a goal. Perhaps until half time (as we've been better in second halfs for a while now for some reason) with some big changes to try to force a win later in the game if we aren't ahead (hence all options on the bench being attacking).
