Unfortunately this team wasn't mine. I have read all the match reports and comments but no one has given credit to Swansea's quick passing and movement and the space they created for each other. Many people have blamed the ref and yes it was a handball as I was sitting directly in line with it, we didn't get it so live with it as we were still completely out classed regardless of the officials inept performance. There is very little point in bashing individual players who are deemed not good enough as we all know this or we wouldn't obviously be the worst team in the division. We all seem to agree that today's line up was a mistake as three holding players with very little creative streak between them was going to push an adventurous Swansea outfit back in their own half, but do we really think playing a different formation with different players was going to make a difference. I think not.
We are totally unable to pass quickly into space created by players running the channels as all season whoever is on the pitch resembles a plastic static subutteo player, and when one of the hardest working players is Adel then you know we seriously have a problem. Many seem to moan that Adel holds onto the ball to long but I wonder if he is thinking who the hell wants it and who can I give it to. So regardless of the result which really pi***d me off and one tank of petrol I actually enjoyed watching Swansea even if they didn't break into a major sweat they still managed to play round us and through us pretty much at will and I'm sure Bradford will look better than us when they play at Wembley.
