Swansea City v Blackburn Rovers : Matchday Thread MATCHDAY ! 19:06 - Feb 2 with 10493 viewsNotLoyal

It’s the visit of Blackburn,we have been here before, expect passing and running, then more passing and running, and then the visitors sneak a goal, that’s what happens. We are not to be disappointed.

A clash of styles : Swansea City v Blackburn Rovers. Plus Paterson latest 4th Feb 2022 08:57
The evening kick off at the swansea.com stadium tomorrow brings together two sides who couldn’t be further apart. With certain selection issues still pending for Rovers boss Tony Mowbray it looks like we could see a very interesting game based on the style of play alone. 0

I've made it very clear I'm not a Martin fan - but if he plays Downes in his right position again and starts Piroe I have a positive feeling for this match.

Downes is outstanding literally in every way.He utterly eclipes the overated but noble Grimes .Piroe has to be given support,proper support and Ntcham should never ever play wide.
It is so frustrating to see the lads so cinnfused and unhappy at their work.

Assuming Nauts is out I’d be going 3-4-1-2

Fisher

Burns - Cabango - Manning

Christie - Downes - Grimes - Ogbeta

Ntcham (or Wolf if Ntcham needs a break after recent injury).

Obafemi - Piroe

Downes lacks focus, very poor at reading the game, makes idiotic challenges, like the one that got him booked on Tuesday. Never seen him interviewed, but on the pitch he does not come across as the brightest. A long way from being captain material. When he is caught in tight spot or surges forward with the ball he is a joy to watch, but falls well short of bearing comparison to Grimes.

"Very quick feet" - absolutely - which makes even more ridiculous for the manager to have played him for months in a position where his feet could be covered in bunions and still be able to stroll through a match.

Yep.
When he gets forward the opposition are alarmed as opposed to what happens when Grimes does. It's exactly what doesnt happen when Grimes strolls forward .

He has passion and skill and is a much better player than Grimes will ever be
Grimes as we all know only uses his left foot, slows the game down far too often and as for dead ball situations, well we all know his limitations there.
