A great victory over Dortmund should be followed up by a victory here. From Hugo in the prematch comments Wembley jinx? “I think it was an important win against Dortmund, to start well in the Champions League, and now we need to carry on, win our first game at home (in the Premier League) at Wembley hopefully, try to put the right energy and win the game.” On Swansea - “We are in the Premier League so every team is competitive and we need to respect the opponent. It’s more important to be focused on ourselves, try to be dominant as usual, to keep the possession and try to avoid their counter attack because they have some quick players up front. Then we need to manage the game in the way we want, be strong, be solid and score goals.” On Dele being available after being suspended for our Champions League win against Borussia Dortmund - “Dele is important for us, hopefully he will be fresh and help us to win the game today.” Cover of game day program.
i wasn't going to go in today until four ... but one of my managers called off sick. as long as there's not too much injury time, I just might get the whole game in. COYS!!!
Lloris (C), Trippier, Alderweireld, Sanchez, Vertonghen, Dier, Sissoko, Eriksen, Son, Dele, Kane. #COYS
incidentally, 'nutter, this is matchday 5. ... not that being a hair behind cost us agains Everton, of course.
too much 'cute' passing around the congested box. need to do more overlapping on the outside and get the defenders turned
Wasn't there a guy who played for Swansea last season who scored 15 goals? Wonder what happened to him.
