Match Day Thread Swansea City 2 v. 0 Leicester City

If Ayew is back in time would like to se us go 4-4-2 at some point with Ayew and Narsingh both on.

 

Only change for me is routs out and Narsingh in. 2-0 swans... hopefully.

 

That's what terrifies me, it has to change for you soon. If someone hasn't scored for however long you can guarantee they will do it against the Swans, I just hope we perform and can get the 3 points. This will be tighter than you think. But I think both teams to score, simply because you haven't this year. 2-1 Swans.

 

Just cant see him doing this, will be mindfull of not conceding as this seems to be our way under PC. It will be 4-5-1. Probably same as what started this week, maybe Narsingh in for Routledge, but I doubt it. Ayew and Narsingh to start from the bench but both will make an impact as subs.

 

Not sure about the score, but we'll have to score at least 2 to win as I seriously doubt our ability to keep a clean sheet against anyone. There's always a few lapses of concentration in our defence.

 

If they are all must win games, do we get relegated if we draw or lose any of them?

 

I said we wont win all of them but the attitude is we cant afford to lose any more home games especially against fellow relegation rivals as it lessens our chances of survival with these 6 pointer games...

 

No you didn't. You said "They all are must wins if we can now as we are still in the thick of things and still one of the bookies choices to go down.....We must not lose home games".

 

Leicester for me is a must win because it pulls us further from the bottom 3, continues the momentum and really leaves Leicester in the crap.
For me it's a huge 6 pointer that we must win.

 

Of course its a must win and a 6 pointer game.......If we lose then its like losing two games for the simple fact our worst goal difference, Lose and not only have we got to win the next game and Leicester has to lose just to be on the same points as them, and then we wont go above them because of GD and must get a result the next game with Leicester losing their following match as well and with the games rapidly running out we need to beat Leicester while we have this opportunity to get above them as we wont have another chance and we don't have to rely on other teams results to do it.......Win and we go above them its as simple as that....

 

Leicester have some decent players and hope their recent preferences doesn't elude us into a false sense that they are a pushover. We need to be on top form to beat them and not let our levels slip. Playing a high line and giving them too much space behind our defence will play into their hands. Therefore, we must stay patient and not concede an early goal that'll put our players under pressure to commit bodies into attack. Although we didn't do this in the City game on Sunday so that's promising.

We need to frustrate them and draw them out because the pressure on them to win will be greater than ours, depending on the home fans not getting on our players backs. Leicester don't really know what to do with possession and it slows their game down too much for them to be threatening. Kill their counter attacking game and you kill their game. I think the reason they're struggling this season is because teams are playing them as if they're a top 4 club.

Also, does anyone have an idea when montero is fit again??

 

Leicester haven't scored a goal in the Premier League this year.
That's quite a startling statistic.

 

This year or this season ?

 

I think this is a must win game simply because of their position in the table at the business end of the season. We need to be beating teams around us to alleviate the pressure on us, another loss could dent our newly found confidence.

 

Forget about their pervious status as Champoins they're down with us because they've been piss poor and yes we should at home be looking for the win , a draw at home against fellow strugglers are points dropped , we cannot then be looking to beat the bigger clubs away if we can't win at home .

 

Do you think a draw will be a disaster?

 

What will happen if we draw?

 

Depends if Palace, Sunderland and Hull win

It won't be a disaster but it will be hugely worrying.

 

Not a disaster, but certainly a big setback in our push for survival.

 

It's about time we beat Leicester, and the law of averages must surely be on our side................
