Time takes you up, time takes you down, enjoy the ride while it last everyone. Be it however many seasons it can be. Anyway looking at Monks & Laudrups results as heads of the Swans, Monk had a little higher win percentage at 36.4% While Laudrup had 34.52% wins On the other hand counting the loss percentage: Monk: 41.56 % Laudrup 36.90% Going by Wikipedia Lets hope for the swans to stay many more seasons in the premier league |

both parties are idiots indeed. However the one who win on this conflict is Hamas, since had this conflict not happend they'd be out of money, now they start getting more. As they say: Hamas target civilians, Israel target millitians but kill civilians to due to the location of the millitia. Who's to blame for the amount of civilian deaths? Both parties, worst is Hamas imo. THis is a time where after tyhis conflict more talks should be done with Fatah who's seem to be far more lvl headed. No reason to give Hamas anything |

Both good players, seen more of Rangel's play and it's the kind I prefer backs to play, wingbacks. [Post edited 24 May 2014 0:59]

| Forum Reply | Who was better in their first season? at 00:52 24 May 2014
I'll be honest, part of what keept me watching Swansea was Michu and his "charisma", it'¨s nice seeing players show their eagerness, emotion & energy . Bony has been better this season than Michu, no doubt there, but better than him last year, well hard to say, besides one is a forward the other and attacking midfielder. I could both see Michu staying or leaving as options, question is really whre would he go. |
| Forum Reply | Your shirt number? at 00:29 24 May 2014
Number 22 or 2 Right back is the position i prefer and 2 is my favorite number only surpassed by 22(since it's 2 "times" 2) |
| Forum Reply | who has improved... at 13:25 1 Mar 2014
Just remember to factor in: Recovery time(playes play better when in form obviously) Moral Opposition Positioning(like Hernandez playing more central than he usually did) To me the jury is still out for this stuff(THe Swans have created plenty of chances over the season, but it really is the number of goals that's the issue) THe team still got that issue of less goals than they shouold have from the nubmer of chances created. |

Theory Sacked due to breach of Contract: Just wondering wouldn't this open up for the option of it not necessary being his contract? What if the Sponsors were to demand certain players to play a certain amount, if the manager doesn't follow the club breach it's contract with the sponsor and so... |
| Forum Reply | Does anyone think the players are glad Laudrup has gone? at 16:23 9 Feb 2014
To early to say really, it wasn't on the given day of the sack nor the moment the palyers were informed. What the team need is confidence, 1 victory helps, yet more is needed. A change in staff being for the better time will tell. It should be some are relieved while others are not.(THat's how it usually is anyway) |
| Forum Reply | Petty unfair dismissal claim... at 19:03 6 Feb 2014
He is probably after an official explanation. If it's true he's been fired by letter without details, he is justified an explanation and if the board won't give it in public he could take other actions to get it out. THough all about reputation and the question is is it for the better or the worse if it's done |
| Forum Reply | De Guzman etc at 00:19 5 Feb 2014
Well, perhaps the team of last year was build up to work around Michu in a similar way that Barca is build to get the most out of Messi & Real's play style the most out of Ronaldo. So playing the style fitting a certain player who is injured & out of form, the team could be losing the center piece.(Just speculations here) Anyway he'll probably be his usual self on the pitch(Being out that long builds up emotions need to be released to the pitch) THough there might come reactions from players after goals and at the end of season. as for De Guzman, he's a bit of a wild card, on his good days he does wonders, on the bad he tend to disappear.(so need to be valued on the day) Done some good corners and free kicks |

No, he should keep learning. Time will teach him when he made the right and wrong decissions. |
| Forum Reply | Are you happy Laudrup's gone? at 22:30 4 Feb 2014
I'll say what i did in another thread, It's the wrong time. Something must be incredibly bad inside the club for this timing to be justified. It's a month to early to make the decission if he shopuld continiue imo. |
| Forum Reply | LAUDRUP GONE: OFFICIAL at 21:39 4 Feb 2014
Seriously what kind of timing is this... You couldn't have found a worse time in the entire season to sack the coach. Napoli games Players returning from injuries Still FA cup to play reasonable position in the league Possibly the most important month's program of the year... Had they parted ways next month with the team still being in danger of relegation and out of the cups, it would have ben a great time to switch coach. Monk is going to have a hard time starting out with the most important games. I wish you the best Swans, but I'm lowering my expectations of the season, from a 12-14'th spot to a 14'th-16'th spot. Also think the Napoli games will be even harder. |

Confidence and a positive Atmosphere is what'll raise the team, the question is when they'll find it again. Atm it's all doom and gloom even though it's a midsection placement atm in a season with a lot of Injuries. THe fans are rightfully frustrated, but the team should be at least as frustrated, and being frustrated and eager leads to mistakes etc. I still believe the Swans will end the season at 12-14'th place area |
| Forum Reply | Michu at 21:05 22 Jan 2014
Hope to see him back soon as well, Michu while a decisive player his "Charisma" is really missing on the field atm.(Yes he might be kicking some flags, but it's those emotions wake up a lot of fans myself included) Since his Injury I only think i've watched about 1/3 of the games I did while he was playing.(Truth be told though I like Swansea, but had it not been for the amount of spanish players and Laudrup my attention would probably still be in La Liga) Come on Swans gain some space to the line. |

Liked the Swans homekit better last year, though the away this year is pretty nice imo. "The Nobs" wouldn't be that bad if they picked the right referance, such as Orc Nobs(Games Workshop warhammer 40k) They even got red in their emblem XD |

Good player, unfortunatly also a bit of a drama queen. He got a worse problem than the drama imo, he 'glorify' himself in situations where he usually act just as bad as the opponent... Which make him look a rather immature proffesional (even if entertaining at times) |
| Forum Reply | Handball or not. at 00:18 30 Oct 2013
Make it easier on the ref and do one of the following: 1) Indirect freekick in the box unless it was a goal preventing action, 2) Note it down and have all penalties taken at the end of the game(gives the refs more time to look at the situation in replay, 3) New rule freekick with a limitation on players in the box( Perhaps 3 def and 2 atk) |
| Forum Reply | Has Jonjo Shelvey been a good signing ? at 12:30 26 Oct 2013
Hopefully he'll be a good long term investment, as he is now he got a foot on either side of a widening gap, hopefully he'll jump to the right side before to long. He needs to think of the bigger picture and learn when to pass and when to challenge else i'd keep him a sub for when the team is behind in the final mins |
