Swansea Match thread

[Red Astaire]

Anyone care to sum up the first half in a neutral, fair way?

Hi C/O - It's been very even. Lots of chances for both sides. Downing has been woeful and Gerrard is having an off day/season. Sterling, Enrique and of course Suarez have played well. Special mention to Johnson as well. Hernandez has been fantastic for them. A proper handful. I feel something needs to be done in midfield. Jonjo or Suso should come on. I hate to say it but If I was to pick one of Allen, Gerrard or Hendo I would Gerrard based on the 1st half performance. Maybe take off Downing though and switch Enrique to LB - Which would be a shame as he's looked very good where he is.

I doubt Gerrard will be yanked, although he really should. We've got to stop granting him immunity from the hook. Too often he just stood and watched as a white shirt slipped past him.

I believe we can go on and win this game. Need to shut down Hernandez though; he's the guy who really makes them work.

 

[Sunny]

I'd bring either Sahin or Shelvey on for Henderson.

 

[RedZeppelin III]

Ok I'm sorry, we're shit, we're lucky ...

yeah cause that's exactly what i was implying .

 

[ILD]

Release the Shelvey.

Agreed.... is it me or has he lost it this season? Giving the ball away a little slow and his shooting seems to have drastically got worse....

 

[DHSC]

I think it's a fucking shit idea if Rodgers is playing Downing to put him in the shop window.

 

[Mystic]

God, the bias you Henderclowns hold is comparable to Westboro Baptist Church.

 

[El Pistolero]

Seriously what the fuck is going on with Gerrard? He must be close to being dropped he has been really poor.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

yeah cause that's exactly what i was implying .

I just want to make you happy mate ... 😉

 

[Sunny]

????????

I think Henderson is anonymous

I think a lot of teams will be interested in his ability to receive a throw in, pass it across goal, and give the keeper a hard time.

Edit: After retreading my post I realize this could have been describing positive attacking play. To clarify, I'm talking about in his own half and to his own keeper.

What has Henderson done this game or have I missed something?

Thank you very much sir, very much appreciated by, I'm sure, not just me. I know there's a lot of lurkers

 

[Fabio]

Kind if agree with sunny. Hendo and Allen have been anonymous

Gerrard is only noticeable because of his shitness

 

[Molbystwin]

C'mon the reds!!

 

[ClassicGirl14]

I wonder when Suso's coming on?

Arsenal would be.

He's there for his energy and pressing to contain them or help stop them playing from the back, he was effective first half imo.

 

[Nir.Barak]

I seriously fear Cole being the first sub, Rodgers seems very keen on him.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Joe Allen loses the ball yet again in the middle -

 

[Modo]

I'd bring Suso on

 

[Sunny]

Well it would be great if he did some of that. He's just running around a bit aimlessly. Downing is woeful too. Why the fuck Assaidi is not on the bench I dunno

 

[DHSC]

It looks like Gerrard and Henderson have swapped positions.

 

[El Pistolero]

He is there to play football not run round, I could do that.

 

[Holle]

We need Shelvey right now.

 

[Mystic]

Yep, Suso or Sahin for Gerrard.​

 

[bkwitche2]

We need Shelvey right now.

From far away just pretend Enrique or Skrtel is him. Works for me.

 

[Mystic]

We need Shelvey right now.

Or him.
