For me he does the hard graft. Great all round and team player. |  |

And goalscorer. |  |
| Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back. |

| Swansea City v West Bromwich Albion : FA Cup match day thread on 13:51 - Jan 11 by sw02sea | Just seen the side. Must admit my heart sinks slightly, when I see both Ronald and Eom start, seemingly as our go to starting wingers. It’s about time they both put in at least, an 8 out of ten performance. Flattering to deceive doesn’t even describe it most of the time. |
My heart sunk when I saw Fisher in goal... |  | |  |

Teams have been targeting him for years, just stick it under the bar and he’s got no idea what to do. |  |

No man on the back post, with Fisher in goal that is a must. |  |

Lacking the nous and ingenuity in front of goal, doesn't help when Galbraith is expected to all the hard yrds and be the creator. |  |

First thing I said was that we have just thrown away a few hundred grand because we insist on giving our real goal keeper a day off on cup days. It gives us something else to look forward to and, even though we struggle to score ourselves that has been wasted. I don't know if Vigs would have saved any of the penalties but he wouldn't have let hose goals in. |  |

Not good at this level. He needs to go. |  |

| Swansea City v West Bromwich Albion : FA Cup match day thread on 18:00 - Jan 11 with 904 views | Whiterockin | Well that was pathetic, we had enough EASY chances to win very easily. The only positive for me was Widell who is getting better with every game. My thoughts on the new player Ward, he may be statistically fit but he is a very long way off being match fit. His distribution was shocking as was his positioning. But he is not the reason we went out, that's purely down to shocking finishing. |  | |  |

Dont get me wrong. Yalcouye penalty was bad. But not sure its gonna help highlighting him and the teams general predicament will help. Facts are Facts. Yes. And we should of put that game to bed. But I'll take that performance over anything we saw under Sheehan. Alot to learn but we need to take the positives. |  | |  |
