Some good replies on here I noticed the Cabaye stat , yes I agree , Cabaye has looked TERRIBLE to me for over a year , last couple of games he's looked lively .

Load of Bollocks, he was brilliant Saturday, by far our best player and far more influential the Townsend on the other wing! And he actually does chase back, perhaps he looks too gracious in his play for some people to notice. Originally posted by Croydonlad
The constant defence of Zaha on here is amazing His all round game needs to be a whole lot better , there doesn't have to be a step over and a trick EVERY time he gets the ball . Get OFF Pardew's back

Admittedly he has International experience with the USA and Egypt but has no top level experience at club level and was appointed to revive Swansea's fortunes in the "Rarefied" PL.Maybe it was Swansea's American owners who made the decision.

I went to the game. Why not boo? I didn't boo. I can understand why some people did with some of the defending on show at the start particularly towards the end. You simply cannot defend like that without being punished even at championship level. It was very frustrating to watch not leaving a few back & holding it out in hindsight could have still played on the front foot but being sensible not leaving the sub unmarked with a fresh pair of legs to gallop forward.

This season especially Wilf has worked his socks off every game.There is some very harsh critisism of him on this site from people who are extremely hard to please. He has got to be worth at least what Everton paid for bolasie right now. He is good and getting better. If he can stick the ball in the net more often then he is worth north of £30m.

Wilf was thrilling to watch - literally. They spent 90 minutes trying to kick him off the park. He gets zero protection from the ref. I apologise to anyone who was there who had to put up with me shouting at the ref.

It shouldn't really be that much of a surprise that an attacking winger, isn't particularly good at defending. He's better than you think, but not that good (Bolaise was surprisingly good at defending, but he was strong f**ker). We're very vulnerable from breaks from our own corners, as both centre backs will be up, along with Ledley and McArthur. Which for us, means we have at best our full backs, and two wingers covering a break out.

I went to the game. We looked wide open defensively for the first 20 minutes. Kelly is not Premiership standard, Ward is far more effective on the right. Damo and Dann were playing like they had only met up 5 minutes before kick off. I don't think Dann is fully fit either. As for Steeeve....Hennessey would have been slaughtered for conceding that second goal. On the positive side....the players look like they are still playing for the manager. We dominated 70 minutes of the game, and when Wickham scored I genuinely thought we could go on to win the game. I think the players did too because instead of settling for a point and closing the game out, we got caught on the break for their third. Four defeats in a row is hard to take, and I don't think we've been thoroughly outplayed in any of them. However, we could and should be taking points from the likes of Burnley. My guess is Parish will accommodate the fact the City are next up and therefore expectations will not be too high. But lose at Swansea a week later and it will be hard to justify keeping Pardew in a job. ..you stated very clearly how the players made silly mistakes and played like they haven't played together before and then you stated very clearly how well they played and how they looked great to be going for the kill, please explain how Dann who was very solid before his injury and is now not so and how our keeper Steve manged to make such a hash of a straight forward save and how all this is the fault of Mr Pardew?

Just a flurry of comical errors Burnley didn't have to practice at all I think we were architects of our downfall which has been prevalent in alot of games too many some may argue. The 2nd when the ball just looped over was the pick of a bad bunch for me summed up what the afternoon could & did become.
