Swans man to watch
Andre Ayew
Andre is back in the goals
Andre Ayew on Forest “The next game will be a hard one,” said the 31-year-old. “We know there's 19 games left and so many points. “It's a marathon and we need to keep going to the end. The team who is going to be strong mentally and physically will be able to do something great. “But with so many games to play, I think it’s important that we only look at the next game. And we will do that for the rest of the season. “We are doing good but we won’t get carried away. We must keep working and work harder because we've got 19 games left and there are a lot of points to play for and get before we can think about anything.”

Joe Worrall
Defender Worrall is catching the eye of numerous premier league sides including gravelly voiced Burnley. He has only enjoyed being one of the first on the team sheet last and this season. Before that he was on loan at Glasgow Rangers and Dagenham & Redbridge where he scored his last competitive goal. Worrall is from a place called Hucknall.

Not at the races at all so far, which is what I feared would happen after nearly a fortnight off. Need to switch on sharpish if we're going to win this game.

I doubt whether the Forest keeper has had an easier half this season. Our midfielders have been dire, with zero creativity. How many time did we get into a position to play balls into their area, and chose instead to play the easy ball backwards, which usually ended up with Freddie? Forest haven't taken care of the ball that well, but we did nothing when possession came back to us. And that lax marking right before halftime was unforgiveable.

Shut down our wing backs, no service for Lowe. Ayew running about not holding position, CH way off the pace again. Bennet missing passes and they have started to press high and fast. Cooper needs to sort this out.

Cabango for Naughton - the back three are all over the place with just one natural CB. Smith for Grimes. Manning for Bidwell (JB is not having a bad game but he's getting nowhere) Possibly Arriola for Lowe. TBH anything to shake them out of the fug.
Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

We're asleep still. All that speculation before HT by Leon about what our manager would do to change things after the break. No worries on that score, this is Cooper we're talking about. Will be at least the 75th minute before he even thinks about a sub, and changing formation is nearly totally out of the question.

Might come in for a bit of flak for this one but Bidwell has been anywhere from bang average to poor for weeks now. Would rather Manning was given a chance, he's looked decent in his cameos.
This game badly needs some changes if we're going to get anything out of it.
