Another unchanged squad? Swansea aint been concedin many this season and their keeper looks a good shot stopper but i'm tippin a 2-1 win for the BLADES wi Moore & Hamer scorin.Hope BLADES in the ground give a gr8 round of applause in the 50th minute in tribute to JONNY GASCOIGNE of the SHOREHAM VIEW who tragically has passed away.UTB
 
It would be GOOD if we WON and I think we'll probably SCRAPE it because I don't see much THREAT from that Swansea TEAM.

Gilchrist Souttar ANEL Burrows
Peck Souza
BROOKS Hamer SAKYI

I’m glad you explained that. I THOUGHT you were hi-lighting your KEY players until I SAW your footnote
 
Clean sheet again (please)
As already said , going to be a tight one
With our lack of goal prowess
1-0 either way!!!
 
Their forward Liam Cullen's not likely to start which is good news. Joe Allen's also ruled out.

I'd put Swansea in the same bracket of threat as Watford. Their journeyman goalie Vigouroux has had a cracking start to the season, their settled back four all played with each other last season, Grimes is a solid competitor in midfield, they've got raw pace down the wings with Ronald and Ji-sung and Luke Williams sets them up to dominate possession.

They're more than capable of getting a result if we're not at it. Our shape off the ball will be key because they'll leave gaps at the back and we've got the quality to punish them. Vini and Peck v Grimes and Franco should be tasty.
 
I can see this being a very similar game to Hull. I think Swansea will dominate possession but can leave themselves wide open. However they are on a good run and are better than most people give them credit for.
At the risk of repeating myself we should drop O'Hare and play Brooks, Hamer and Rak Sakyi. Swansea will employ a press and there could be space for Rak Sakhi and Brooks to exploit.
If we do stick with O'Hare and Hamer there is no point playing Moore. We may as well play Campbell, Brewster or even Rak Sakhi upfront.

Having said that I expect Wilder to go unchanged.

I would not be surprised to see another 0-0.
 
Very fortunate. Once again the O’Hare/Hamer combo is not working. Brooks as a left footer is cutting back into trouble. Why not switch wings onto his natural foot ?. Unbalanced. Burrows and Peck have played well but those ahead of them have to improve or we need to make changes.
