Swansea would have controlled possession whatever formation we chose

it's what they do.

Fer is obviously not best playing left midfield, but with three wingers out injured he's doing a reasonable job there. I think Hoolahan ahead of Johnson could have worked, but would have been a risk to leave the midfield light against a team that has so much possession.

    - Was getting stick from the crowd first half (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Dec 15, 16:09:28
      - A huge number of the crowd are mongs though tbf (n/m) (NCFC) - CB41, Dec 15, 16:15:13
      - Not just him - it was the whole attacking unit that was getting the jeers. (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Dec 15, 16:14:22
        
        The ironic cheers were specifically directed at Elmander (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Dec 15, 16:17:08
        
        Yes - I know, I am in the area that does the jeering. He wasn't the only one getting it... (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Dec 15, 16:20:43

    - He seems to do simple, important things effectively (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Dec 15, 16:07:14
      - Exactly. A big muscly Wes, is essentially what he is. Just not the same skill or vision as (NCFC) - Yellalee, Dec 15, 16:11:36
      - He is a bit hit and miss, He has also improved since we switched to a 4-4-2 (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Dec 15, 16:09:11
