So yeah... Swansea

[Judge Jules]

Good. I like him hopefully he finds a place in the team, could be at right back.

Not a chance, however well the lad plays tonight, not with Magic and Wisdom available.

 

[jimmy]

Michu and Hernandez really running the show for Swansea. Very clever players, both of them.

Allen amd Shelvey on the other hand...

Carra yellow foul on michu

I never had to do either thankfully, as we were too young to drink & soon learnt one can & two chip barns shared between 4 of us meant we could last from 12 (queuing up outside) til full time without needing to go.

We also learned not to stand behind the goal & where to start the match so you'd end up where you wanted to watch most of it. That was more tricky though, as we had to adjust from being allowed to sit on the barriers when we first went aged 11 to standing as we got older!

Fuck that first half was shite.

 

[dmishra]

Yesil's been really poor. Failed to trap the ball almost every time it's been played to him so far. Looks pretty nervous/out of his depth.

 

[jimmy]

HT. Swansea deserve their lead.

 

[FoxForceFive]

I get it!

Am I still an armchair fan?

Yes, but you're level 1 armchair now.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

What's worrying is you know Suarez will be playing in the 2nd half ...

 

[Hansern]

Not many attacking options for them to pass to though.

Fuck this, I cant stand watching the second half on a stream. It just makes me wanna throw the laptop out the window.

agree. Nosil is not upto it.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Now you can see it's a live feed, it's like being at the game, complete with shite ht 'entertainment' if it's on.

 

[Red Astaire]

Yep they do. Most were shite but I thought Allen looked the part. Roll on the 2nd half.

 

[dmishra]

I'd bring Wisdom and Suso on for Cole and Downing. Shift Henderson to midfield, shift Shelvey further forward, and run with Suso, Yesil and Assaidi up front. Bring on Suarez if it fails to work.

This makes sense.

Have a cookie.

 

[dmishra]

I'm really debating myself whether I should stay up for this. It's 2:30 here already - I'm sleep deprived, and have an early morning meeting and a long day tomorrow. Fucking football.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Just watched that goal again.

There were at least 4 defenders at fault cos 4 players ended up without markers.

Shocking.

 

[Red Astaire]

Cole has been utter rubbish. Downing has not been too bad. Yesil has been poor as has Assaidi.

 

[Rosco]

Just watched that goal again.

Shocking.

We have a great defence.

 

[gene hughes]

What kind of horse does that?

 

[gene hughes]

We have a great defence.

Easily worth 100m.

Fuck that,I'd be in bed if it were half 2.

I'm debating watching the second half or putting homeland on.

Ha ha those were the days! got caught out once -never again

 

[Ossi]

I was undecided if Coates was his marker, I suspected he'd lost a man in front of him, & Coates was behind, but stream fucked up so didn't see a replay.

How the fuck do people watch streams every week?!

On a related note, does the commentary voice go really loud every time someone shoots for everyone else too?!

It's hard beeing an armchair fan. Watching a shit team on a shit stream.

 

[rurikbird]

I think Allen is playing quite well, don't get the criticism at all. He even played an Alonso-esque long pass a few mins ago.

Yesil and Cole should be substituted ASAP. Play Sterling as a striker and Suso right in behind.

 

[mark1975]

I thought Allen played well too, some good bursts from midfield and he's attempting the more adventurous passes. Downing and Henderson have combined quite well, but we're getting caught flat footed by Michu's cleverness in the hole position, he's breaking the offside trap with passes time and time again. He's been excellent.

 

[mark1975]

Gerrard on.

 

[Hansern]

Gerrard coming on

 

[FoxForceFive]

Ok, was not expecting stevie to come on.

At all.

 

[keniget]

In place of who?

 

[tombrown]

Gerard wears the armband for half time kickabout? Cocky twat
