Swans v Aston Villa

[jackaway]

Can we get back to back wins on Saturday against Aston Villa at the Liberty for the first time in 58 games,since Dec 2012,a shocking statistic.
Nine teams in the relegation battle,from 12th to 20th position,West Ham 12th on 37 points,Sunderland 20th on 29 points,only 8 points separating them.The biggest and closest relegation battle for years.
On paper we will never get a better chance of winning four straight games,although statistics go out the window in a relegation battle. Home to Aston Villa who have 4 points (1W 1D 4L from the last 6 games,home to Southampton who have 7 points (2W 1D 3L) from the last 6 games,away to Sunderland who have 4 points (1W 1D 4L) from their last six games. Swans have 7 points (2W 1D 3L) from their last six games.

Yea, shocking. We've just not been able to put a run together at all this season.

Last weeks win has put us in a more relaxed position where any points gained from now on is a bonus (Win puts us completely safe)

You're right, on paper great opportunity to push for four straight wins.
We still haven't beat a Lambert side in the Premiership yet though.

2 back to back wins, we are safe and we can now take a breath :P

Villa surprisingly beat us in the possession stakes and lost. How many times have we done that this season,dominated possession yet ended up losing.
So it's not all about possession,it's goals,and we scored plenty on Saturday. Shelvey MOTM for me,a wonder goal and two assists,as we cemented our place in the top flight for another season.

Allot will depend if your defence can handle Benteke whos in great form. Our defence is pretty solid and will hopefully cope with Bony.

We woz lucky today Bongo, happy new year :D

I felt deflated today after that. We deserved nothing from the 1st half but neither did Swansea. As I said the defence handled Bony well but we just couldn't finish our chances.
I honestly thought we were the better team overall but picked the wrong team to start the game. It was way too negative.

If Montero hadn't got injured I think it'd been done and dusted by half time, but he did and you went for it 2nd half so fair do's you were unlucky, I thought Sanchez was mint BTW.

I was glad when he went off. He was causing all sorts of problems.

I found some of our songs quite annoying though.
