I'm fine with that as long as he's happy being 5th choice and used in a midfield rotation. I'd much rather play Buckley, Rothwell and Travis with Davenport off the bench. We need depth there, not starters.

You jest, surely? He lead off with this pearler.

That was a shot by Rothwell that their keeper got something on, right? He really should have passed.

This ref loves his yellow card.

I'm yet to see a FK hit the man lying behind the wall.

3-5-2? Far too ambitious. 5-4-1 with our new Chilean CF playing on the right of the 4. And a 21 year old 5'6" lad playing upfront on his own. Brilliant.

Changing to his vaulted 3 at the back now. From 4-3-3 with a 5'2" CF (and two 6' advanced forwards) to 4-3-3 with a False 9 to 5-3-2. He's a tactical mastermind.

When did this lying down behind the wall become a thing and how long until football realises that someone is playing a practical joke on them?

Yes. He moved Buckley to a False 9 and moved Dolan out wide right.

For what it's worth, Ayala has been fantastic today. Of course he won't play more than 5 games for us this season.

He's playing Buckley as a False 9. Mental.

This is where Mowbray is at his weakest (and it's a long list) - Swansea have changed things around and are dominating. We need to adjust. He won't.

He's trying to do too much this half - think the first half success went to his head.

Not in the slightest. Boy who cried wolf I'm afraid.

This Smith guy is everything wrong with modern football. Dived three times, won a free kick two times - and screamed and cried loud enough the third time to have the game stopped due to an injury. Watch him 'jog' it off in a moment.

Shockin' keeping, that.

He's a damn sight better than Bell or Douglas.

I mean he's never a #9. He provides nice energy out there, but he should never be leading the line at this level.

Their GK is MOTM so far. I'm also glad Gallagher went through their #22 - he's a cynical little cheat.

So this ref has booked Pickering for a perfect tackle, but not their #22 for the most cynical foul you'll ever see on Gallagher? Ah. I see. Usual standard of joker with the whistle then.

Aren't the Coventrio making enough money for doing jack shit as it is? How can you be that greedy and that incompetent in one package?! Also they need to have a chat with Fat Sam - he always benefited financially from transfers. Allegedly.

That PIckering challenge is another reason why I've not rushed back to watch live football. Lovely clean tackle. Yellow card. Game is unbelievably soft these days - you're simply not allowed to defend.

Just seen the team - so that's 4 Academy graduates in the starting XI and all 7 (I'm counting McBride) subs. This is the same team that wants to flog it's training ground and dismantle the Academy. You literally couldn't make it up.

This is the same bloke that's played with a False 9 in the Championship. The same division he can't organise a team to keep a clean sheet in. He's beyond deluded.

He's not got PL pace. You saw Championship FBs have him in their back pocket. PL CBs are much much more athletic than what you find down here.
