JM1872 3,818 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Disagree. If we played Maribor or Malmo again over 2 legs i would be confident of us beating them.On paper, so would I.On the pitch, not so sure... We are a dreadful footballing side and it's hard to hide from that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

watp72 54 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Swansea have only gotten to the level they are thanks to money generated from playing in the English league. Put them back in the Welsh League and within a matter of seasons, they are on a pair with TNS, Llanelli and Bangor City. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

albluenose1990 29 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 i think they would embarrass us, watched all 3 of their games so far much better than usThey got panned by Wigan at home and snuck away with a 0-0. Hardly putting the fright into people. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigyrfc11 24 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 When was last time swansea was in Europe, absolute nosense would never finish in higher postion than us if we were in same League. They might play more attractive attacking football but that wouldnt be hard. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

swanseabear 25 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Ridiculous comments all round here. Swansea play great football, but have no they are not better than Rangers. They have players like Nathan Dyer, Angel Rangel and Scott Sinclair who would walk into the Gers team, but they are a newly promoted team with a lot of championship quality players. Though they could win, as they're a tougher team to play than people give them credit for, but Gers would be favourites.It's pointless to debate how they would do against Maribor or Malmo, completely irrelevant. And Swansea play in English league as the Welsh league was formed later, and it is not professional, bar a handful of teams. However, they are still governed by the FAW, not the FA, so if there is a sending off etc, they reprimand the Welsh teams playing in the English leagues Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzz 306 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 We're a far better team than Swansea. A far grander team, with an identity, history and culture that sheepshaggers like Swansea couldn't even sniff at.And as for just now, we drew with Man United 0-0 at Old Trafford last season. We could tank Swansea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheKingObv 10,860 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 So a 0-0 draw at OT (over a year ago) means we are far better than them? Even though we now sit second in the league, and struggle in pretty much every game we play nowadays? Along with being horsed out of Europe by 2 minnows, who were both destroyed in their Europa Group?Intriguing logic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzz 306 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 literally lmao at thatbasel beat man utd, are they better? u dumb cretinI would say the current Basel side containing players such as Degen, Frei, Streller and Shaqiri are infinitely better than the Swansea side containing...uh...I don't think anyone who follows continental football would disagree.
