IF I WAS PICKING THE TEAM

    It would look something like this.

    Velios

    Cahill

    Drenthe Donovan
    Barkley

    Baines Distan Jagielka Coleman

    Howard


    What are your thoughts??

    We need to be more attacking and with Baines n Coleman overlapping and bombarding Velios n Cahill and flare and creativity from Drenthe and Barkley i think we would be much stronger in attack and taking the constant strain off the defence.....
    If you disagree who would you play and what would be your formation?

    Thats not how i set it out.....
    Drenthe on the left Donovan on the right n Barkley in the middle doing whatever he wants and Fellaini holding in front of defence sorry.

    We have a good defence but they are under constant pressure which with a more attacking line up.....ie having attacking players attack then the defence would be under much less pressure.

                                                         Howard

    Hibbert                    Jagielka                            Distin                           Baines

                                                           Felli

    Coleman                                                                                            Osman/Drenthe

                                                         Osman/Drenthe

                                                          Cahill    

                                                         Saha       


    Let Osman and Drenthe swap positions. Neville can make the drinks at half time

    Howard

    Neville  Jag  Distan  Baines

    Coleman Rodwell Felli Drenthe

    Vellios Dennis



    Neville ahead of Hibbert purely due to us needing some leadership.

    Cahill has poor lately, needs goals to justify his place.

    Baines, in my opinion, is the best left back in the prem.

    Amazes me that some of you are actually put saha and cahill as the front two, hasnt this season opened your eyes abit CAHILL ISNT GOOD ENOUGH ANYMORE, cahills nack has always been ariving late into the box to score with his head, now he just sits to deep and when he rarely wins headers now days they bounce harmessly wide, the guys a legend but offers absolute jack shayte he needs to be dropped and vellios/denis need to be given a chance with gueye and royston on the wings start barkley a few games all good saying hes gonna be better than rooney, not gonna improve playin for the under 18s.

    vellios and macelely upfront
    midfield of donavan rodwell felliani drenthe
    defence as is with neville not hibbert, if he wants to play 1 upfront then barkley to support the forward, dont want coleman in team hes average at best

    coleman is shoite, been saying it for 2 years, got slated for it on here. a player that cant get into the irish team is not good enough to play for us.

    also in the shoite category go neville, hibbert, cahill ,billy and gueye

    very average we have saha, osman, distin,heitinga, vellios, rodwell, stracman 

    decent we have fella, baines, jags, drenthe, barkley( how he doesnt get a game i'll never know, a proper football player this boy)  howard and shortly donovan

    we'd get absolutely mullered if we played those 3 in midfield. Who would win the ball for you and defend?

    Completely disagree.  Very exciting to watch and I really don't understand why he gets so much stick.

    He made a mistake, he left out a player, read his other post.

    Right now I would go for:

    Howard
    Hibbo
    Jags
    Distin
    Baines
    Donovan (When he arrives of course)
    Fellaini
    Barkley
    Drenthe
    Stracqualursi
    Vellios

    4-4-2. Simples.

    If I was to pick our side at the momment I would obviously start with BIG Tim in nets the 2 id like to see playing full back would be coleman and baines and centre halfs of jags and distin. Play donovan and drenthe in the wide areas overlapping with full backs and we would also have the option of them 2 switching flanks at any time, This would make us more attacking and less predictable. In the middle of the park id go with felli and rodwell with straquarlursi and saha up top.

    My Team for Swansea:
    Straqua-man - Vellios

    Drenthe - Osman - Fellaini - Coleman

    Baines - Distin (c) - Jagielka - Hibbert 

    Howard

    Gueye for Coleman if Coleman isn't fit 
    And if Vellios isn't fit then Jan Mucha coz I'm sick of Saha. 
    Bring Cahill on a sub after 70mins or so
