Dugout Discussion – Swansea vs Liverpool

Swansea City and Liverpool begin Sunday’s Premier League action as they do battle at the Liberty Stadium. The Swans need to restore some pride in the wake of two heavy losses on the bounce, while the Reds could extend their unbeaten streak to six matches with a well-rounded performance in Wales.

Swansea came up short in the final third across their previous four outings, recording just three goals and the second-fewest shots on target (11). That trend could be set to continue when you discover that they rank third-bottom for goals (16) and bottom for shots on target (52) in home clashes. On the defensive end, the Welsh club conceded the fourth-most goals (nine) and the joint-second-most big chances (12) in their last four fixtures.

Liverpool boasted the league’s most effervescent attack over their last four match-ups, charting top for goals (12), top for attempts (83) and top for shots on target (29). The Merseysiders also rank fourth for goals (28) and third for shots on target (85) in away fixtures. Only Manchester City have surrendered fewer shots inside the box in road matches than Liverpool (88 compared to 108), which suggests that the hosts may struggle to manufacture clear-cut chances.

      Usually the trick is to pull something out of a hatty

    Skrtel is so rubbish. He aged about 10 years in the past season

      Losing Spurs if Leicester win the title this GW

      prob 6-7 DGWers
      1 Hit

      1. Defoe, Cresswell, possibly Deeney. Already have Payet, Martial.
      2. Maybe -4
      3. Kun or Kane. All the Liverpool dross. Palace defender still leftover from GW32

    I enjoyed it more when we were talking about Arsenal fans yesterday.

    Klopp is killing me. I should've never invested i any Pool players.

      2 weeks a go, I had 3 Liverpool and 3 Everton players. Now, 1 Everton player (and he doesent even play)

      Firmino's been pretty good. At least when he doesn't play he doesn't troll you with a 1 point cameo (today at least).

  7. Fred54

    This is why I don't think I'm mad in selling Firminho and Studge despite them having a 'double'.

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Sturridge might only play 1 game of the double with Benteke back

    2. Sjaugen
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      A double trap more like

    1. Syd.
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

    2. Ten Season Wonder
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      are you sticking with Firmino for next week?

      I had him already and kept him in my WC team, but now I want to ditch

  18. Royal5
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Oh ffs Sturridge wasting Coutinho's possible assist

    1. Give The Todd Some Love

      Like 1 in 50 freekicks go in

      1. Whazza

    1. Thomas Magnum
      • 8 Years

      The spectaor he hit should be aloud to keep the ball imo

  21. Thomas Magnum
    • 8 Years

    Benteke brace incoming

  22. Puzzle

    Comments today are really entertaining.

  23. Mistletoe

    8 years, 1 month ago

    Why Swans is so pumped up for this match? Thought they got nothing to play for?

    1. BIG TONES
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Playing with freedom and without pressure as they are safe from the drop one would think.

    2. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      The having nothing to play for thing is a myth.

      1. Woy of the Wovers
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Well said 😉

        1. Epic Fail
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          You put it far better than I did though 😉

        2. Mistletoe
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          I agree

    3. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      More a case of Liverpool not being pumped up

    4. Woy of the Wovers
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      That's a myth peddle by so-called experts.

  24. BIG TONES
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    A fit Sturridge would do well at Arsenal. Makes too much sense though

    1. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      A fit Sturridge? 😀

      1. BIG TONES
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        He would fit in with all the sick note players there!

    2. Thomas Magnum
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      A big money transfer to Arsenal?

    3. Royal5
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Sturridge, Arsenal and Fit - in the same sentence?

    4. Sylas
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Fit------------------------------------------------------Sturridge

    5. Studgie G
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      they aren't selling him

    6. Les Bleus
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Sturridge is injured too much at Liverpool already. Can you imagine how often he would be injured at Arsenal?!

  25. @ocprodigy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    I just need one Sturridge (c) goal, just one, please. Pretty please.

    1. Thomas Magnum
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Benteke doesn't

    2. Royal5
      • 12 Years

    4. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

    Wow Liverpool are really rubbish... They were so good in the league a few weeks ago against Stoke and Everton just mental how many problems rotation is causing...

    1. Thomas Magnum
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      The Sakho effect

    2. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      They're better than most teams in the league.

      1. Thomas Magnum
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Villa approve

    3. Studgie G
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      they rotated in those games aswell

    4. Emp
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      they're fielding a much weaker team here as you yourself just acknowledged ..

  28. Jafooli
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    I reckon I'd be happy with a single goal and couple baps from my DGW TC next week.

    1. Hakchak
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Midfield CS bonus too

    2. Thomas Magnum
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Happy with anything but a red in the first game

    3. Jazz!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Who you leaning towards handing it to Jaf?

      1. Jafooli
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Not sure yet Jazz, only really got Defoe and Payet of any note and they both make me vomit....

    4. Les Bleus
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I'm honestly expecting a blank.

    5. Godot - Fashanu Zealand
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Hazard 2.7% ownership in top 10k, I hope he shows up

    6. Whazza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      How this season is going I would be happy with two starts..

  29. DGWjegy
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    1. Thomas Magnum
      • 8 Years

    2. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Some people are.

    3. BIG TONES
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Might lose Kane if Leicester win the title. Want Aguero vs Swans on final day

    4. Henryyy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yes

    5. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Still tempted to go for players with 3 matches left of the season instead of 2
