From the streets of NL. Due to unforeseen circumstances this week the participation in this thread by the usual contributor has been lacking. It’s nothing more than being a lazy bad lad with more excuses than John Hollins.
Here it is.
To the tune of frigging in the rigging !
It was on the good ship Franky Whose attitude is cranky He’s got long hair and a mental stare But he loves a right hand shandy
Their striker is called Toney But he ain’t no Wilfried Bony When Guehi gets ahold of him He will disappear quite quickly
Winning in the play offs Winning in the play offs Winning in the play offs It’s an easy thing to do.
When Brentford came to Swansea They stopped for some post match bonding Five grandads and a couple of kids Booted them all the way to Tonypandy
Ok, let’s give them the BOLLOX !
Their away support is a pity It’s laughable and shitty Small time is too big for them Cos WE ARE Swansea City !
Swansea City: Freddie Woodman; Kyle Naughton, Ben Cabango, Marc Guehi, Jake Bidwell; Jay Fulton, Matt Grimes (captain), Conor Hourihane; Connor Roberts, Andre Ayew, Jamal Lowe.
Substitutes: Ben Hamer, Ryan Bennett, Joel Latibeaudiere, Kieron Freeman, Ryan Manning, Korey Smith, Yan Dhanda, Morgan Whittaker, Liam Cullen.

A great believer in taking anything you like to wherever you want to.
So looks like Potter's football is defensive? Won as many matches as Hughton in the season he was sacked but has tightened up at the back so called attractive football has won them no more games...and not really scored a hatful more of goals either and given the basket cases of Sheffield Utd, West Brom and Fulham this season the standard at the bottom tier of the PL is not improving!!!

Potter's Brighton just can't stick it in the net. They create chances. At the risk of triggering the anti-stats crusaders on here they're a top half side by xG.

Only one side in the Championship outperformed their xG more than us this season (Bristol City) but we are firmly midtable rather than struggling.
Like Brighton we are an outlier. The top 6 by xG/xPts looks much the same as the actual table because (shockingly) teams that create more and better chances than their opposition usually win more games than they lose. Brighton and Blackburn could well be one quality striker or goalkeeper away from a much better league position, while our performances suggest the issues lie in creativity and stopping the chances at source. When we lose the "something from nothing" players results could quickly turn.
