Swansea City v Aston Villa Pre-Match Thread

[citizenDJ]

With a bit of luck (and by that I mean Swansea putting in an 'already on the beach'-type performance…) we could get a draw out of this, but I'm not too confident because, well, because we have a dreadful team playing dreadful football, basically. Maybe the 'reinvigorated' training sessions will result in some improvement this week.

For what it's worth, I'd plump for the following team:

                 Guzan

Lowton  Vlaar  Clark  Bertrand

                  Sylla
        El Ahmadi  Delph

Albrighton               Agbonlahor

              Helenius

With only one more point than us I don't think that is likely.

[citizenDJ]

No. It would be lucky for us if so, though.

[achilles]

Hope for a point from somewhere to help drag us over the line!

Sylla over Westwood would be madness imo, otherwise I agree with you.

[citizenDJ]

I had it in my mind Westwood was injured! Him in for Sylla, then!

The only thing I'd stick my money on is Bony getting a goal. Whether or not we get one first determines whether we lose or draw.

4-4-2 for me

Guzan
Lowton - Clark - Vlaar - Bertrand
Bacuna - Delph - Westwood - Albrighton
Robinson - Holt


Actually, i couldn't pick 2 forwards from Robinson, Holt, Weimann and Gabby. apart from the young lad none of em deserve a start.


Fully expect a loss, hope to Sid i'm wrong

What price a scandalous West Germany-Austria stitch-up by the two clubs?

[pooligan]

I have gone for a 1-1 draw but fear another defeat if i am being honest .Without Benteke i just can not see us scoring.It is about time the likes of Andi and Gabby pulled their finger out and start doing what they are supposed to do,score

I'll take a last minute Weimann tap-in following a goalkeeping foul-up like the one against Fulham a few years ago.

[ciggiesnbeer]

Lawro having us down for a loss gives me hope!

Still my favourite moment in the last 3 seasons

Wouldn't think so
