Hamers inswinger is a fantastic delivery but we don't use it. The Todd Kane outswinger to the pen spot is rivalling the Shipley drifted ball to the far back corner of the penalty area we had to ensure for about four seasons for the least threatening delivery in football. I genuinely can only...

Honestly don't see anything in Maatsen. Beyond wasteful at wing back. Looks a fish out of water in the attacking midfielder roles, particularly when he has his back to goal (which is understandable).

The outswinging corner as well infuriates me. I fully expect the Shipley drifted ball out to the back of the penalty area back before long.

As angry as I've been with Robins in a long time. Result entirely as a result of this relentlessly impotent formation. What on earth does he think is going to change!? It really is like he tries to get as many non goal scoring players in the team as possible. Swansea are bottom half for a...

Swansea create problems for themselves in every game they play. Makes it even more crazy that we have been sat in our own half holding hands for 45mins. Crazy not to press these. Robins trademark negative away set up as made them look like world beaters.

Set up again is completely wrong. Makes these look like Barcelona. Sit off, one up front, no support. Have set up for 0-0. Don't know why Robins loves doing this so much.

Agree. We showed them far too much respect last time. A lot of people said they were the best team we've played when they beat us at home. I wasn't surprised they got hammeres the following game. They overplay at the back. Hope we go there aggressively and press high.

Would be fantastic news. Thought he was nailed on to be sold this summer. You think we stand a chance of keeping JCS? Was impressed when we signed him that it sounded like he had other possibly bigger options on the table but liked the sound of the project here.

Andy Turner now reporting we are in talks over a permanent deal but the article says Chelsea have the option to extend his deal by a further 12 months.

@better days @Skybluebeliever any updates on a new deal for Gus?

I said this on another thread. Robins set us up like this in most games last season around December. Think we drew 4 out of 5 games 0-0. The game plan is basically hope to get to an hour at 0-0 and then try and be slightly more purposeful for the last half an hour. It shows a complete lack of...

Robins continually goes into his shell and goes for the default containing set up. I can't stand it. We learn nothing other than that the usual suspects in the attacking roles offer nothing.

The next time I see the line up and we have O'Hare and Shipley 'supporting' a lone striker I wont watch the game. Even if I'm already in the ground, I think I might walk out. It honestly like groundhog day - must have watched that exact game probably 10-15 times last season around Christmas. We...

He really does. Echoes of all the talk of Leeds in for him last time his contract was running down. Was a similar story with Zain Westbrooke. Notice that John Dawkins is very vocal on twitter promoting Rose. He was also the same with Westbrooke.

Highlight of Clive's commentary is when he said their equaliser which made it 2-2 had hit the side netting. Took him about a couple of seconds and their players running off celebrating to correct himself.

Would probably see Allen step in alongside Sheaf. Prefer Allen in the deeper role.

If we play Gyökeres up front on his own supported by two of the usual suspects we won't score more than one. Defence need to stay switched on for us to get a win.

Think it was a volley wasn't it?! Anything off the ground it staggers me how he can't get hold a shot. My hope or expectation of a goal when he is about to shoot is bordering on non existent.

The whole debate about him is becoming tiresome. The same criticism is labelled at him game after game. It's not just like he is out of form in front of goal, two and a half seasons he's been the same. He's brave on the ball in some respects but isn't brave enough to take chances and actually be...

And was played behind him
