Re: Swansea City v Leeds Utd Match Thread
Too many quick to blame Meslier. Mistake by Strujik left us 2 against 3. Then Meslier is well placed for the shot. Bogle deflection means he has to make a late full stretch dive. To his credit he almost gets there. But certainly not his fault. Our defence was completely at fault.

Didn't say he wasn't, just he looked to dive slowly if that's possibleandrewjohnsmith wrote: ↑Sun Nov 24, 2024 3:51 pm He was in a good position, then it took a deflection.

Re: Swansea City v Leeds Utd Match Thread
Most of our players get into every other team in the division. And we have a lot of internationals, plus we pay maybe the highest wages and we also spent a lot of money on proven players.
Yeah Struijk and Rodon were herded for their first. Tanaka should do better

Mate, he had enough time to knock one out before saving that.andrewjohnsmith wrote: ↑Sun Nov 24, 2024 3:54 pm Too many quick to blame Meslier. Mistake by Strujik left us 2 against 3.

Re: Swansea City v Leeds Utd Match Thread
Away from home struggles continue
We are so afraid to take risks we struggle to create anything against any side well organised.
We play out from the back to keep the ball, Swansea have done it to get forward.
Different mentality.
They take risks, they play 1 touch fast passes despite the risks and it pays off, fair play.
We are creating nothing and Farke needs to fix, not just sit on the bench looking clueless till the 70th minute subs.

Not Mes's fault. Just a fluke goal

We should be beating Swansea, they don't look any better than us.

Re: Swansea City v Leeds Utd Match Thread
2 shots on target two goals, says it all really but we haven’t don’t anywhere near enough either. Was often the same last year, teams around us don’t get great results and we fail to capitalise on it. Get gnonto and largie on at half time give em something to think about.

Re: Swansea City v Leeds Utd Match Thread
What a comedy of errors, Swansea happy to attack on the break & put our defenders under pressure when we’re fannying around at the back. Meslier was saving the 2nd but it took a deflection off Bogle.

Just saw replay for their second
Deflection took it past Mes
He saves it otherwise

Does Piroe start the second half? Not done much so far, conditions may not suit.

Conceded two horrible goals.
We are not that good at the back as the stats suggest.

Quality of our crosses very suspect
Lots of opportunity… poor delivery
