Sissoko off

Lamela on

Come on Poch time to be proactive for a change, hate it when he just passively waits until the 65th min.

Make that sub early and we’ll win guaranteed, otherwise I can see another Swansea/Burnley unfortunately.

This is shit we are so cautious should be playing two up front to pin them back no one in the box to attack crosses... No need for Sissoko in a game like this as we need someone who can pass and play affect play not a runner to track players etc..

Poch needs to sort this out its woeful

For the first thirty mins we played some good stuff with a lot of off the ball movement up front and some close things. Should be a couple of goals up by now. Wham make Swansea look like world beaters.
Hope we can keep up the pressure in the second half. W ham will be looking to hold on and then throw attackers on for the direct game last twenty minutes so we need goals early in the second half

Park the bus until last 10 minutes and put Carroll on and see if they can nick it! Can see their tactics

Thats basically the standard tactic of (almost) all the teams outside top six now days.

I don't like moaning about a ref but Mike Dean is an absolute ****. Ever since that Man City game he has screwed us in every game, and people still call him a Spurs fan.

Anyway, hook sissoko for winks and we'll beat the 12 men. Can't believe we have a CM 2 out there that both can't pass. Anyone know why winks didn't start this having been rested last game?

I honestly don't think that performance was as bad as ppl are making out.

We need to be patient. Probably need Winks and Lamela to play a part

I have been somewhat impressed with Sissoko this year, definitely not a Sissoko hater, but f**k me ... wtf is he doing tonight? He seems to want to hide at RCB even though he's not needed there and whenever he gets the ball he is pre-programmed to pass to either Sanchez or Aurier. Dier also moving the ball way too slowly. I'd take them off an put on Wanyama and Winks and Lamela on for Eriksen.

What more annoying is the about of play we have had and yet to create one decent chance.

We need clever, quick thinking and fresh players on the ball. Not a game for beasts. 80% possession?

Both teams levels are low after only 48 hours. It's easier to be a brick wall than a demolition guy when youre tired.
