Fabianski
Angel
Taylor
Chico
Williams

Thats probably our strongest back 4 but I don't feel it is strong enough

It wasn't strong enough last season and we have not invested in anyone better

Lets hope we can outscore the opposition, providing Bony stays that is

You do get over dramatic, our defence was nowhere near as bad as you make out, and I believe we are looking to strengthen it further, take a chill pill and trust the board

You give it out, you take it back it`s all part of the game

Seven PL clubs had a worse defense then Swansea in the 2013/2014 season.

How many have strengthen significantly, we went with getting a new GK, if we were 8th worst again if take that right now as it means another yr in PL

I would not be surprised, if the stats were available, that our goalkeepers made the least saves of any club in the Prem. I remember very few from last year, and loads they could well have saved.

Defense is a place where Swansea can use improvement. Going to be interested to see, with our new keeper and Taylor back, how the stats will be in the end of the season 2013/2014.

Our defence has been weakened by the sale of Ben Davies, it needs strengthening. Any long term injury to Taylor or Rangel and we will have a very difficult season. It needed strengthening as far as the right back position is concerned anyway.

Perhaps if we chant "De-fense, De-fense, De-fence" when they have the ball in our half if will help our defence?

I have many costumes ..... especially for the weekend !!

Just saying .... if we had kept a clean sheet for all the games where we only conceded 1 goal then we would have had an extra 15 points and finished 8th above Southampton.

We will miss Vorm's excellent distribution and his availability as an extra man when playing possession football across the back 4. That said, as long as we retain Chico we have an excellent back line. They are a battle hardened, decent Premier league defence, as proven over the last couple of seasons.

I think it will roughly be the same as last year, from one extreme to the other and back again!

Taylor will be a defensive improvement on Ben but maybe Rangel will perhaps drop off a bit.

Fabianski may perhaps command his area a bit better than Vorm but may lack in other aspects.

IMO our defense is our weakest area and needs a top quality strengthening sooner rather than later, if everyone remains fit and on form we will do ok overall.

That's probably the truth of it. Expect some courageous blocks by Ash, some comedy moments from Chico, some 'Walcott in my pocket' moments from Tayls, and some caught too far up the pitch moments from both our full backs (and Chico if last year was anything to go by).

It will be fun. Whilst we're all thinking it would be nice to get some extra quality in, I can't see it happening unless we lose Chico. We've got 4 full backs and 4 centre halves as it stands.And it looks like they are all in Garry's plans.

Yes i cant see much change there in the coming weeks but was thinking more long term myself. Maybe even January if we go a bit wonky at the back.

If we can cut out some of the real sloppy stuff it would be a massive help, maybe conditioning and fitness will play a part here ? it seemed that sometimes our defensive unit just switched off mentally and positionally .

Its gonna make for plenty of exciting football i guess !

I reckon we definitely need another defensive midfielder if Canas is not in the plans, we cannot expect Leon to fill that role all season alone, DM is vital to protect the back 5.

and is it .......

"offencive" and "defencive" rather than "offensive" and "defensive".......

Ah the Vorm excellent distribution myth. Mostly he took much too long and ended up having to hoof it straight to an opposing midfield player, or worse for little Nath to try and win a header. We will not miss last season's Vorm one jot. He was utter crud.

I think that's a bit harsh when we were the only club in the bottom twelve without a negative goal difference. Our worst results were the 4-1 home defeat by Man U on the opening day and 3-0 away to Man City. Hardly worth hanging ourselves over!
The thing that killed us were the number of defeats by the odd goal. Improve on that and we'll have our best season this year (if we keep Wilf)

Can't see much improvement with Chico the clown likely to be starting. Ash will carry him as usual so we shouldn't be worse than last season.
