I dunno, they're a much better side at home & City much weaker away.

If we win tomorrow city may be mentally fucked.

You'd hope so mate but Imagine the boost City will get if they see us drop points tomorrow.

I really hope we don't go to Palace needing to win. Would be far from ideal that.
 
Bony being boss again puts Swansea into the lead against Villa. 24 goals this season. Jonjo assist.

26 SWANSEA GOAL Shelvey with a shot from almost the halfway line that catches Guzan off his line and creeps under the bar Swansea 2 Villa 1
 
Jonjo just scored with a volley from the centre circle. If Rooney had scored it it would have been THE BESTEST GOAL EVER !!!
 
GOAL - Swansea 2-1 Aston Villa - Jonjo Shelvey (26 mins)
Step aside Wayne Rooney, I think Jonjo Shelvey has just eclipsed you. The Swansea midfielder scores a goal of the season contender when he controls a clearance in the centre circle, looks up and then in the same motion volleys a dipping shot over a desperate, back-tracking Brad Guzan.

He's getting some credit.
 
Fuck me, that's a spectacular strike. If Jonjo had the work-ethic of Henderson, he'd be the best young midfielder in England.
 
I don't believe Shelvey scored a goal like that.

Only Beckham and Rooney are capable of something that incredible.

I'm not sure if it's work ethic he lacks, or he's just not as quick or good a learner as Henderson. Henderson makes the right decisions on the pitch; Jonjo is a lot more inconsistent and bobbles between doing the sublime and the incomprehensible. Can't argue that the move hasn't worked out well enough for him though. Getting regular minutes and decent goal / assist stats. I used to rate Shelvey ahead of Henderson but little lamb is now way ahead of Shelvey in terms of consistency and maturity in the way he plays.

Including his brother's marriage?
 
Lallana on his Southampton future:

“I am concentrating on the last two games and then I will sit down in the summer and see what happens,” he said. “I just want to enjoy my football. That’s when I am at my happiest."

Meanwhile, Pochettino avoided questions over Lallana’s future following the match, insisting he would only talk about the match.

He's gone. Shaw as well, probably. Who knows if Lovren will be poached too? Not even sure if Pochettino will remain. Looks like they may have to rebuild rather than build on the current team in the off-season.

Doesn't surprise me, he's 25, had a great season and it's his big chance to move on. Not sure if one of the big clubs will bite, though.
Southampton will sell most of their players this season, they have an owner who isn't at all interested in investing money in the club.
Will be an interesting summer.
 
How would lallana fit into Manure with Mata, Rooney and Shinji (if he stays) all playing in the forward mid position?

Their owner sanctioned 15m on ozvaldo, 8 m on Lovren and 10m on Wenyama etc - sure they will sell, but they will invest too.
