First two Leicester Goals 11:28 - Dec 6 with 5138 viewsjack_the_lad

First I know swans were rubbish yesterday, but first goal was handball second goal clear offside. I know we're not good but these decisions were wrong goals change games.

The old saying is true, when you're at the bottom, nothing goes your way.

The second goal was definitely offside. I was sitting directly in line with the goalscorer at the moment the ball was passed and saw it for myself in real time. It was proved later on MOTD.

As for the first goal, WTF don't we have players on the post at corners?
Leighton James made the point again on the BBC Wales phone in, and he was spot on.

This, we've been saying it for a long time. From memory Leon has done this in the past, not the tallest granted but still a body there who could have prevented the first goal.

Still following Dr's orders!

The first goal has to go down to Monk for picking that f*cking cart horse in the first place.

Nothing to do with Ki who was marking him when the corner came in?

How far do we take play back to get to the root cause?

He's been better than Ash since he's come into a very poor performing side.

Inexplicably dribbling out for a corner when under no pressure seems a pretty logical place to start.

Corner certainly should have been defended properly, but there's your root cause.

Forgive me if i imagined what happened but i saw it totally different from you. What i saw was Bartley attempting to shepherd the ball out for a goal kick but lost his nerve when a Leicester player started bearing down on him with the ball travelling very slowly to the by-line.

Anyone got footage of it?

Agree giving the corner away was poor, but if the opposition are allowed to score with a basketball shot it's gonna be difficult to stop.

Looked like it held up on the turf quicker than he expected.

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.

He had plenty of time to put it out for a throw it's just that he can't play football very well.

He attempted to, but sliced it.

I'm sure captain fantastic would have done better though.

Exactly what I saw. Bartley tried to shield the ball out but totally panicked when Vardy came near him. Bartley should have been stronger and continued what he was doing and seen the ball out.

Is Neath Jack serious?

He cost us the first goal against Bournemouth for being rash and stupid. inexperienced.
He almost scored an own goal from a simple interception. inexperienced
He cost us the first goal against Leicester.. for hesitating to put his boot through it. inexperienced

He has also been out of position for every goal we have conceded. inexperienced
He has also been rash, by giving away needless freekicks. inexperienced

he has been absolutely woeful and out of his depth for 3 games.

The awkward moment when a Welsh Club become the Champions of England.. shh The Swansea Way.. To upset the odds.

Or played percentage football and put it into Row Z for a throw in, as I said in another thread. He did neither, because he panicked and got caught between two alternatives.

Not good enough for the Premier League, would suit a League One or lower Championship side (which is what we might be soon)..

Totally agree - you make your own luck. We had to be denfensivley so tight yesterday - couldn't afford to be open against Leicester with their lightening counter attack.


In my view should have played like Norwich did when we played them at home.

Poor defensive goals and lack of goals upfront (only Ayew looks like he has the composure to score a goal when we get into a goal scoring position) is a recipe for relegation.

Tighten up defence straight away (which would be first thing Pulis and Allardyce would do) then see what happens.

Of course he would have. You or I would have.

If you are as physically imposing as Bartley and can't shepherd a ball out, even without the football sense to judge its pace, you have issues. Once that isn't going to happen, there is no excuse for not being able to find touch from the position he was in.

That's two goals in 3 home games which we wouldn't have conceded if we had a man on the near post. Rather ironic considering Garry blocked one on the line in the PO final.

Things like that cost us dear atm. Although there's no way Leicester should have got that corner yesterday.

Aye, because captain fantastic never makes mistakes does he. Mr dependable, Mr Always Get's It Right.

Nah, lets all blame Bartley for a goal because he's an easy target. Let's not question Ki's schoolboy defending for the subsequent corner, you know, a complete different passage of play which allowed captain fantastic to arrange the players to defend it. Nah, let's go for Bartley instead.

Agreed Bartley could have done better but our defending at corners is shocking. Ki and Sigurdsson are more interested in wrestling with players (and Ki doesn't do it very well), Ash can't jump (it's taken me a while to realise this, coz I'm a big fan of his) and Bartley ... well, nuff said. We don't have one defender who attacks the ball. Bony was our best defender at corners - we miss him as much for that as for his goals.

Not because he is an easy target, because of his shambolic attempt to clear the ball. If Williams or Ki had done that, they would have been the root cause of the goal. Nothing difficult to follow there surely?
