Our left back George McCartney was shocking, he was backing off and backing off all game and just letting Dyer run at him. He was $hit scared, i know he was on a booking and that's probably why Larry took him off but it was like playing with 10 men, he was just running backwards without ever putting a foot in and making a challenge. Dyer must have loved it.None of our defenders covered themselves in glory with their displays but our midfield is the real problem for shipping too many goals and has been for most of the season. We've got Howson and Kilkenny and usually Johnson plays there but none of them can tackle, they dont do the defence any favours whatsoever and it needs sorting ASAP. They were constantly giving the ball away and then couldn't get back to defend, Kilkenny wants an age on the ball and you simply dont get it. Howson is pretty good when he's attacking but anything else and he's not up to it. Johnson will walk back into the team now we've been hammered but having him wont back wont change anything, he's just very similar to the other two and we need someone who's gonna tackle and get about people in midfield.
Becchio was awful, he gives his all and you cant ask for more but he's so clumsy at times, he's on his ar$e half the time or offside. Somma didn't do much but the service wasn't great although he should of scored when one on one but it was a good save, the header that hit the bar was a good effort aswell.
Swansea look at very good team, probably the best i've seen this season with Cardiff and have a great chance of going up. I hope they do go up, aslong as it's not Norwich, i'm sick of seeing them win although it wasn't a late winner this week.
