No he's a dead man walking regardless and I think he knows and doesn't give a shit

Can’t wait for him to leave.
Certainly not the line up I wanted.

Re: SWANSEA CITY v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
This is the first time ever that I’ve thrown my phone at the wall when the team was announced. Absolutely raging here.
I pray that we are all wrong :calmdown:

Had to turn off BBC Sports App off as it tells me score before I watch it on TV.

Re: SWANSEA CITY v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Maybe we're all over-reacting?
Mick has only got three players out of position, abandoned the change that produced the improved performance against Reading, ignored Sam Bowen, and adopted the 'must not lose' negative and defensive system that failed so badly against West Brom.
We may have magically rediscovered the art of defending, remembered how to press, and are heading for an uplifting 1 - 0 win from a set piece.
Or not.

I agree. He's got to go regardless of what happens today. There's no future in "playing football" like this.

I’m beginning to think the same about VT

Re: SWANSEA CITY v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Looking on the bright side all we need is three perfect deliveries from Giles on to Flint and Kieffer's heads and we win 2-3

Surely Bowen's injured, even Mick wouldn't throw our best player from the last game out of the squad just for shits and giggles, would he?!

Re: SWANSEA CITY v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
I wonder if the club have spent the international break to look at other managers, you would hope so.

The fact he’s not a sub makes me think he’s injured or still suffering with the illness that forced him to miss the Wales Under 21 match.

If we lose today, or even draw badly, then i reckon that he's gone. There's no way back for him.

Re: SWANSEA CITY v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
He's got to go regardless of today's result.
You can't pick 5 centre backs, get battered, convinced yourself it worked having conceded after 5 minutes and go with it again. And I don't care if we nick a win or draw today. The bloke hasn't got a clue.

Mick was asked about Bowen on Friday in his pre-match press conference. He said he was over the illness that kept him out of the Welsh u21 squad and was good to go - along with everyone else bar Tom Sang. Maybe he picked up an injury in Friday training?

Stonewall pen then we were very lucky. Defence looks shaky already after one attack.

Kiefer did well to slide it through. We seem to be pressing a bit higher which is great

Re: SWANSEA CITY v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
I don't think Swansea are that great, despite having all of the ball. They are struggling with our physicality.

They look like Brazil compared to us though :facepalm:

Anyone fancy helping Kieffer out?

Re: SWANSEA CITY v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
It’s a flat back five with four parked in front of them and we wonder why our strikers are struggling to score goals.
