Millwall v Swans

It’s torture time again for Swans fans with the next match due, this time Millwall away. We’ve seen a dramatic slump in form recently with four straight defeats whilst teams around us in the table still pick up points.
The form guide table shows us bottom and in relegation form. How has it come to this after being in the top four all season and having the best defence in the league? Instead of looking forward to these final seven matches of the season we are now dreading them as we slip down the table. Fans were calling for a change in formation with teams high pressing us and nullifying our wing backs, well Cooper reverted to a conventional back four last match and we were even worse with not one shot on target.
The match is live on Sky Sports this Saturday at 12:30pm if you can bear to watch it.

FT: 0-3
What a performance in answer to all the critics, me amongst them.
Cooper stuck with the change in system from last week 4-3-3 and it worked a treat. Roberts, Cabango and Whittaker were rested, Bennett, Naughton and Routledge came in, with Routledge making his first start of the season and a top performance.

Who’d have predicted this result? Millwall winning 4 of their last 6 games at home and only conceding 3 goals.
Amazing score putting 3 goals past them and finally a win, that’s made my weekend!
 
Finally! A performance to enjoy! It's just a shame cooper takes so long to see it and react but at least he has! Now let's hope it can continue into the playoffs
