Swansea City v Leeds Utd Match Thread

[Orange Box]

Not that good second half, we lifted our foot off the accelarator

Is that game management I wonder? Busy schedule and all that

Pitch looked awful by the end

[SG90]

Mansfield 9 goals from 13 shots on target! Feel like that should be us most games lol.

Saving some for Plymouth

What a bouns it's been to have Bamford and Gnonto come good, chipped in 9 goals between them now in the last few weeks.

Really lacked that strength n depth in recent seasons.

Penalty for So'ton

Southampton penalty. Surely too late now!!

You'd bloody hope so, but after the weekend you can't write the feckers off!

The naysayers seem to have disappeared from posting during matches recently. Wonder why

+10 GD on Southampton now

[Cjay]

Basically a complete performance.

Early goal then controlled the game.

Midfield controlled by Kamara and Gruev.

Summerville, Rutter and Gnonto causing havoc.

Piroe showing he can do the 9 role.

Happy day and 2nd now.

[Mick Jones shoulder]

Excellent start to finish.
Not alot more to say, long may it continue.

Piroe absolutely fine as the 9 .... DF has finally caught up with us CJay...

Interesting point that the commentator made in the Saints match. Southampton have the best record, accross all 4 divisions, of scoring goals after the 90th minute. Two ways to look at that, 1 is that they keep going to the end and make things happen, the other is that their record this season is perhaps better than it should be and they can't keep on scraping points with late goals.

Indeed. I made the point earlier that was it Bamford's presence that was the biggest factor in our good form or was it more to do with Firpo and Gruev emerging as first team starters at the same time. I do think that Ampadu spraying the ball from deep a few times has given us another dimension and in some ways almost given us an extra player as he is a midfielder and defender at the same time on the pitch. Firpo's contribution, not just with assists but his forward runs to create overlaps helps create space for others which can be crucial against park the bus tactics.

Not knocking Bamford and it is great he is in form but I felt people were writing Piroe off far too quickly.

Very few teams will defend like Swansea, so I’ll reserve my judgment.
I just find him too pedestrian - he is the best finisher though

Perfect timing to find their form, like we didn't even miss a beat losing the likes of James.
