mrmojorisin75 Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 i don't ever really want to see him in 2 in midfield with shelvey but having watched that feel less concerned about the rest of the season re: losing shelvey in some ways, especially at home, he's arguably a better option than shelvey because he passes the ball and then moves himself into space which is better for the team...shelvey wants everything in front of him and is better suited to counter-attacking away from home Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 I want our best players on the pitch, they've successfully played together before. Got to find a way to get them working together. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 He's very composed on the ball. Never panics and has a sharp turn on him. Looks like he should be a regular starter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh74 Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 With Shelvey and Ki i think think they both need a midfield destroyer alongside them in a 2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 I don't think he's amazing or anything, but it seems to have clicked for him and he's doing miles better than he was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Tweeted something after the Chelsea game about him lacking bottle and had quite a few replies from Swansea fans saying it depends what mood he's in. Apparently he's prone to hiding/putting in little effort if he's not feeling up to it, which does happen. If the team are doing well and he's in the mood, he's quality. Hopefully he's on a high after the last two performances and long may it continue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 When we discuss the options for midfield, I actually think Diame and Ki are more dynamic as a pairing than any pairing with Shelvey. Jonjo's obviously a lot more talented, but both Ki and Diame seem to buzz about the engine room a lot more, whereas Shelvey tends to sit deeper. If you are going to press the opposition, Diame and Ki would be the ones you pick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh74 Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Could play Shelvey in the number 10? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebellious Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Really good both games but concerned twice that I saw he lost or didn`t jump with his man on corners where they nearly scored. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hvuge Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Main thing for me is that he does thing quicker then Shelvey. And that pass to Kenedy for our second goal was brilliant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ujpest doza Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 That ball for the 2nd goal was sublime, goal of the season contender. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Edgar Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Could play Shelvey in the number 10? Shelvey could never play the number 10 role how Rafa wants it played. Regardless, he just wouldn't be very good in that position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NobbyOhNobby Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 He got the ball higher up the pitch and did things quicker than I think shelvey has in recent weeks. Could never see them playing together, teams would just run straight through the middle of us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ankles Bennett Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Be nice if we could play shelvey in the role Ray Kennedy did for Liverpool with him playing behind Ki and Diame in almost a centre half position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t agree, Shelvey needs to be getting ball further forward, not even deeper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toon25 Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 I’d love to see Shelvey further forward just to see what he can do in that position, but Rafa doesn’t tend to experiment in that regard Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Away Toon Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Literally the only thing Shelvey does well is hit long passes and he can only do that from the quarterback position that he likes to play. Anywhere else on the pitch is going to be too crowded and he doesn't do short pass and move. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 When he's on form Shelvey is good on the ball from anywhere on the pitch like. Absolutely. To see what he can do, just watch Shelvey's second half of last season when he was allowed to work his magic further up the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
