Well the manager has to live or die by the calls he makes

But I would humbly suggest that a significant majority of the fan base would be of the view that Pinto at right back with Martin at centre back in a back four is a highly risky strategy, especially as Swansea have quick wingers. He may want to play s back four today for that reason but I think the five has worked ok and it's the only formation where Pinto and Martin don't look like complete defensive liabilities.
