Much like the GM appointment, I'm sure most will disagree but assuming everyone was 100% fit and available I'd be interested to see the following team, especially against 'weaker' opposition.
*Dependant on the opposition and/or result needed.
Whilst Michu carries more of a goal threat, in my personal opinion Pablo is better at linking up with our other forward players, Wilfried and the wide men. He's the best player of a through ball we've got and after his recent form I'd be gutted to see him left out and he's unlikely to displace Routledge on left wing.
Meanwhile, Michu could make Shelvey esque runs from midfield and if Jonjo can score 4, 5? then it's my gut feeling that Michu could hit double figures at least and would still be a threat from set pieces, he's certainly up for a fight he's always tackling back and even if you think I'm talking sh!t it's also worth remembering it's a position he played for many years in Spain and he's one of the most energetic players in the squad
He would also provide a good 'target man' in midfield and if deployed as a get ball, give ball 'link up' man I'm sure he could achieve 90%+ pass completion stats too.
But at the end of the day I'll back whatever team the leader decides, he's doing a good job so far isn't he?
EDIT - Michu + Pablo have a good combo going on, like N Dizz & Angel. P.s I am NOT a troll, like the supreme leader I only want the best results for SCFC.

Pace, goals, trickery, vision...
No Pabs, the destroyer of Caaaaaaaaaaaaaaardiff? He ran the show at Stoke!
Like I said I would be gutted if he was left out he is class.
But then again that's your opinion. : )

Assuming we were playing say Crystal Palace at home, Leon AND Canas is a bit defensive isn't it?
At Anfield, maybe.

The reality is that if Michu comes back firing we could have two 20+ goalscorers in the side, with the creativity of Hernandez on one flank and pace of Dyer on the other. In prospect it's pretty frightening; whether it works is another question.
And Shelvey who can fire from outside the box and two/three of the league's best wingers.
Would be fantastic if we could see our strongest team just for the last 2-3 months :) - but hardly realistic.

Vorm
Rangel Chico Williams Davies
Leon Canas
Dyer Michu Hernandez
Bony
------------------------
Put Hernandez on the wing, but I think he's better playing in behind the striker. Would have Michu starting there normally, with either Routs or Pablo on the wing.
I've been Pablo's biggest fan since the moment we signed him but he's looked ineffective on the wing in recent times, when played there.
He's looked a new player in behind Wilfried, and not even Michu could pick out the passes he does, he'd score some goals though.

Agree with this one.
Genetically, paedophiles have more genes in common with crabs than they do with you and me. Now that is scientific fact. There's no real evidence for it, but it is scientific fact.

Michu free roaming behind Bony, interchanging with Hernandez and Bony. it's a bit different to the normal, predictable, teams. And of course Ben and Angel on the bench with Shelvey, Lamah, JDG, Tremmel and Bartley

Loving the front 5 but we can't, at least in my expert opinion, go with three CB's because more often than not it does not work.
Rangel + Davies in. Amat on the bench and swap Canas with Shelvey, assuming we are trying to win the the game like the next one.
*Unless he's f*cked, obviously.
Again, just my opinion. That front 5 could do serious damage against any team although I'd swap Pablo + Michu around.

Yeah, have to agree with this one, think Pablo's been excellent in the number 10 role recently but believe Michu gives us more of a goal threat. Got to start both for me.
Hard this, but imagine the bench if we still had Ki.
Chopice on bench Tremell, Taylor, Ki, Canas, Routledge, Bartley (after yesterday) or Amat, struggle for a second striker I think but that would have to be Michu moving up. Hell of a bench

As a former good leader said in reference to the great Josh McEachran "He can pick passes from the sky"
Not even I saw that pass coming against the scum, Gareth Model? certainly didn't at least Routs was switched on. EDIT - I don't believe even Michu could had played that ball, although he may had knocked one in from 20 yards!
On an unrelated note, speaking of pass completion statistics which is something people have been critical of Pablo of, Gylfi Sigurdsson's was one of the worst at the club and he was our best attacking player.
Generally speaking when Pablo 'gives the ball away' he's always trying to do the right thing whilst releasing it early.
Would you all rather say JDG in that role? Because his pass completion is immense.
To be honest, even though Pablo won us the game against the scum with his first touch & set up the goal against Stoke I'm still tampin' he gave it away once or twice. : )
I would LOVE to see Wilfried, Pablo + Michu all playing together at 100%.

for every Gylfi Sigurdsson, there's a Josh McEachran - what ever happened to him?
And for every Darren Crapley there's a Scott Dobbie.
'Super Daz' CAN'T do that sh!t.
Ain't heard much about Josh, 'Pratters' is currently watching Bolton's Championship relegation 'battle' from the bench.

I must admit that this exact side crossed my mind the other day. If Pablo can work hard in that position when Michu has pushed on then I think it could be very interesting. It is often easier to score goals from deeper positions. eg. Frank Lampard

God I love that goal. My favouritest ever Liberty game and my bestest goal for the Swans. Dobbie was so good at times it was untrue. Gutted when we released him but history suggests he's not got the pace for the Prem. But helluva team we had there.

Terrible athlete mate, probably never up to the PL but quality right foot.
''Stephen Dobbie involved in everything good that Swansea are doing in the game''
Sinclair + Dyer looked like different players when he was in the side too.
This video also does not demonstrate his creative 'genius' but considering his limited game time he had a tidy goal return, his finish at WEMBERLEY was the goal of the day.

Thank you for your endorsement, like when I said GM was the man for the job I didn't have many supporters then either.
EDIT - Michu is excellent at making late runs into the box.
P.S Scott Dobbie > Pratley.
