Ditch the diamond 18:04 - Feb 7 with 15971 views | scruffyjack | If we carry on with this formation we will be relegated. I can understand, in certain games, to keep it tight and to accommodate players, but this is now the norm. Take out Siggy & Ayew the rest of yesterday's team have scored one goal between them. The next highest scorer was on the bench - Gomis. From Bony's departure until the start of September Gomis was scoring goals regularly, but what's happened since? Has Gomis changed his style of play? No, what's changed is the service, or lack of it, which he's had to deal with in the bad spell we had under Monk. We need to get back to playing wingers - Montero & Barrow preferably, sorry Routledge definitely second choice, & get Gomis back in - give him proper service & he will score. If we don't do this soon we're up sh*t creek | | | | |
Ditch the diamond on 17:26 - Feb 9 with 2086 views | sketty_jack | What about 4-1-4-1 with siggy and ayew behind paloschi and barrow and Montero/routs on the wings? Never gonna happen but we'd score more goals! I think if you've got players with good engines like ayew and siggy that can get back quickly when attack turns to defence it could work. Cork and Britton in the same team is too defensive and we can't transition between defence and attack quick enough. Plus cork is soooo slow! | | | |
Ditch the diamond on 18:57 - Feb 9 with 2038 views | vetchonian | I remember the fiery devil Summerbee playing I was just pointing out that we were getting crosses in but often no one had caught up and got in position when Angel unleashed the "pass" Point being our alleged shape has little to do with it | |

Ditch the diamond on 20:17 - Feb 9 with 2008 views | Drizzy | There are plenty of great crosses that people don't get on the end of. Same with passes. Nobody cares about your Mike Summerbee quote you geriatric dinosaur. | |

Ditch the diamond on 20:21 - Feb 9 with 2001 views | jasper_T | Commentators love to praise "dangerous" balls across the six yard area even if the strikers at ten yards behind the play. Sorry, Johnathan Pearce, but it doesn't make it a good cross. | | | |

Ditch the diamond on 21:48 - Feb 9 with 1926 views | ItchySphincter | Montero raping a full back is no comparison to Taylor or Naughton 'marauding' forward to win a throw in off a defender. Wingers equal width, and with pace too. Montero is better at hitting the penalty spot with the ball than Gylfi is so I don't know why people are trying to polish this particular turd. Warwick's right by the way, it's a simple game, no matter how much Newp is trying to ruffle his feathers. [Post edited 9 Feb 2016 22:10]

Ditch the diamond on 23:25 - Feb 9 with 1891 views | Drizzy | God you truly are becoming senile if you're quoting Mike Summerbee. You're a f*cking fossil when it comes to football, Phil. The game has completely passed you by. If anyone wants some more meaningless platitudes from '60s wingers I'm sure they can PM you. Wrinkly senile incontinent c*nt. | |

Ditch the diamond on 23:42 - Feb 9 with 1871 views | WarwickHunt | I forgot you were an expert. F*ck off now child, the grown-ups are talking. ps There'd only be one of us incontinent if we met face to face Newp, and it sure as f*ck wouldn't be me. | | | |
Ditch the diamond on 00:00 - Feb 10 with 1847 views | skippyjack | Warwick is correct.. A cross is a pass A bad cross, is a bad pass A good cross, in a specific area should be sought after.. a players deliberation should be carried out on the training ground, a mutual understanding between the crosser and the individual who inhibits the said area should be established. F*cking rocket science this football stuff.. We clearly don't do it on the training ground though... Out of the two games Paloschi has played, he's run into a few specific spots that he's familiar with.. Gomis has give up with his runs.. instead he just trudges back after closing down the keeper at full pelt for no reason.. and gets flagged. Yet we're wasteful when crosses are involved.. i have given up with our corners.. we are just an utter shambles | |

Ditch the diamond on 00:04 - Feb 10 with 1842 views | Drizzy | The grown ups are talking about what Mike Summerbee told their pal in yesteryear? That's just you, Phil. Everyone else is talking about football. Christ. Are you suggesting that you would somehow intimidate me? Really scraping the barrel here, Phil, even by your catastrophically low standards.

Ditch the diamond on 00:15 - Feb 10 with 1837 views | WarwickHunt | It was a few weeks ago after a City home game - who said anything about yesteryear? You'd know my "pal" if I told you his name. Crosses aren't football then? Let's just say you wouldn't be as gobby in the flesh. Trust me. I'll be at Arsenal if there's anything you want to get off your chest. ps "meaningless platitudes" is a pleonasm. Thick c*nt. | | | |

Ditch the diamond on 00:39 - Feb 10 with 1808 views | WarwickHunt | Nah - I'd just love to see the gobby little c*nt's face when he saw the size of me. | | | |
Ditch the diamond on 01:25 - Feb 10 with 1780 views | Drizzy | I honestly couldn't give two c*nts about your pal, Phil. That's already been established. It was asinine sh*te when you posted it and still is now please stop going on about it. Nobody cares. What are you suggesting, Phil? I can't imagine you'd do anything should I wander up to you and call you a fat old c*nt (I presume that's what you mean when you say I'll be shocked at the size of you). The grammar Nazi spiel is boring, Phil. We've been over this before but you seem to be rather forgetful. Side effect of getting old I suppose, that and the inability to maintain an erection. I've heard Cialis works wonders, mate. I'm sure your perpetually disappointed wife will thank me later. [Post edited 10 Feb 2016 1:27]

Ditch the diamond on 08:42 - Feb 10 with 1718 views | WarwickHunt | Don't fancy saying this to my face then, you little f*cking weasel? Thought not... What are you worrying about if I'm so old and infirm? Pathetic student pr1ck. ps don't use words you don't know the meaning of, it just makes you look like an even bigger c*nt. | | | |
Ditch the diamond on 12:09 - Feb 10 with 1647 views | GreatBritton | Talk of "grammar Nazi spiel" is unhelpful. Accurate use of language leads to clear thought. Use of terms like "pleonasm" isn't all that helpful either, however, because hardly anyone knows the term (sadly). I applaud playful and original invective but I wish people would refrain from threats of physical abuse. On topic, Cork is a good player who is trying hard to do things which don't come all that naturally. I hope it works, but Ki needs to play a significant role for the rest of the season too, particularly in terms of arriving late in the box, as he did once against Man U, if memory serves. | | | |

Ditch the diamond on 14:08 - Feb 10 with 1569 views | karnataka | I seem to recall Ki arriving late and getting on the end of a pull back from Shelvey which he slotted away along the floor to the keeper's left, it was against Stoke towards the end of last season but I remember thinking at the time he ought to be doing this sort of thing more often. http://lasthighlight.com/swansea-city-2-0-stoke-city-highlights/ | | | |
Ditch the diamond on 18:35 - Feb 10 with 1492 views | Drizzy | You've embarrassed yourself again, Phil. Sadly this is becoming in a trend in your old age. You're confused, angry almost, as to why nobody gives a f*ck about what Mike Summerbee said to your pal. You're boring, mate. Nobody would give a f*ck if you stopped posting and your absence (by cowering on the other forum) was welcomed. Honestly if you want to stick around to tell Lohengrin about the time you got caught sniffing Howard Tate's jockstrap then do so on the other forum. Leave the football talk to those who still have their own hips. If at any point you'd like to see me so I can happily call you a senile old c*nt to your face then feel free to PM me. I'm not going to touch your c*ck like the others do though, Phil. You massive f*cking nonce. | |
