Before I say this I just want to say that Carlos has done a great job since arriving at the swans and has helped us get out of the clement nightmare we endured this season.
However, that is not to say that the last 6 weeks has been extremely questionable tactically and mentally.
I will use the example of the West Brom game away from home. We clearly set up negatively and let the side who are relegated play the ball and dominate us showing very little attacking intent in till however they score and we realise we actually need to score a goal.
And that’s when we start to attack get the goal only to go back to negative defensive tactics and let them dominate the last 15 or so minutes.
If Carlos had done his research prior to this game it was clearly obvious that the only chance to get a result against Man City is to press the defensive and play with attacking intent. This is clearly shown in both games against Liverpool and Man United in the second half.
And yes, of course they are better sides than us but you can also look at what Crystal Palace did to them where they played with no fear and got a point (and a last minute penalty to win it).
If the gameplan today really was to sit back and just play for a draw I would be stunned, if there is one team you don’t want to allow the ball it is Man City with KDB and silva in midfield.
I am not even asking to get a result against City because of course they are a far better side, my point is to at least try to attack and make them panic and maybe test our luck and see what we could do.
To sum it up, playing for a low score line like we did today and still conceding 5 is not only a disgrace to the club, it is also a disgrace to the traveling fans who believe it or not actually paid money to see that game today despite it being on tv. To play 54 passes in the first half is unacceptable and the Swansea way is being eroded every time we play like that.
In my opinion, like what Monaco did a few weeks back every fan who went to the game today deserves a refund! |  | | |  |

Well that's wrong as well as Naughton had 28.
But that just sums you up and the way you see football. You see the tip of the iceberg and think you can sail over it. You dive in two feeted and blurt out a load of bollocks and you end up convincing yourself you're right.
You don't get the game, it's passed you by...
Back to your cock ups........ |
I don't convince myself I'm right, I know I'm right.
You have proven me that you aren't an idiot, so why post idiotic posts. Why do you want to act like that for?
All this abuse that you are completely obsessed with, what is your problem there? Were your parents abusive to you as a child or something, are you abusive in your normal life or just the internet.
Do you know you have a problem? All these abusive posts day in day, giving you a weird strange enjoyment.
So carry on with your abuse, your posts are becoming more and more incoherent though, just to let you know... |  |

No, let's get this right: Your posts are simply pointing out everyone's various errors and highlighting what a tvvat everyone is making of themselves.
That's not a crime, but it's weird.
The way I see you is that your head is in a complete mess.
Do you even realize that I did a post that completely agreed with one of your points of view, exactly that same as you were saying, to test you out, and you still disagreed and flamed me for it.
See if you can find that post, it's there, let me know if you can find it and show me how much of an idiot you really aren't (because I've worked out that aren't).. [Post edited 23 Apr 2018 2:02]

Problem is that the internet allows people like Chris to type all sorts of vitriolic abusive nonsense and feel superior.
It really is sad |  |

I am still in disbelief this morning with what I saw yesterday. 14% possession in the first half is just unacceptable whatever level of football your playing. We are borderline unwatchable, can't wait for the season to end so I don't go through more pain and misery watching park the bus football. | | | |

Had I gone out yesterday then just looked at the result I'd have thought "Fair enough".
Instead I watched all the game in a stunned state of numbness that I have rarely felt in almost 50+ years of watching the Swans.
Our only efforts on goal were from our centre half, whilst the only player who actually ran at them was our left back.
Vast improvement needed next week and show no respect to Chelsea.
I'd rather lose 3-2 than meekly surrender 4-0, which will happen if we try that again against Chelsea [Post edited 23 Apr 2018 8:59]

Agreed. This park the bus way worked against Liverpool/ Arsenal, but been shown up big style at Manure/Citeh. I like Carlos, but time is now we had a right pop at Chelsea. No fckn about scraping for a point here n there. Go for it now in every game!! |  | | |

TheResurrection I see as the most negative poster who constantly tells everyone that they are being negative but the opposite is true.
I posted yesterday a 100% positive post how we should get at Man City and try not to give them time and space on the ball. I got shot down in flames for my positivity.
But if we can see that our team is playing nagatively away from home, if it's becoming noticable that these negative tactics are making us play worse away from home (even playing too defensively against West Brom). pointing this out out is not being negative. The same as defending negative tactics is not being positive.
We only just managed to get the draw when we parked the bus at Huddersfield, they almost scored near the end when Ince's late effort hit the upright, and Fabianski made a great save to stop a shot that was goalbound from Mounie. That's how close it was against a team of similar ability. Trying that same tactic against top teams, we will never get results playing that way.
I see it as a big backward step. When Carlos has the team playing attacking positive football, we are a much better team. We were known for our possession football and keeping hold of the ball. The new away tactics of sitting back and letting other teams get at us, it's not our best way of playing, it is playing in a highly negative way, and no amount of defending this way of playing can make it positive. |
Spot on ,and i'll be very disappointed if we play with a negative attitude against Chelsea ,yes they are a good team who are now bang in form ,but so were Liverpool when we beat them .
GET IN THEIR FACES AND SHED BLOOD AND SWEAT FOR THE TEAM !anything less and it's another loss on the cards |  |
