Money Claims Swans The Best

Although I am sure the second part of that comment is very much tongue in cheek, it is easy to see how sides believe that the Swans are heading up with an eight point lead in the division already and a game in hand for good measure as well.

As Money prepares his side to face the high flying Swans at the Liberty this evening, Money believes that having seen them beat his side twice already this season, it will be the toughest test that the Saddlers will endure in their remaining game as they contemplate their own fight to get into the Championship.

Speaking to the Express & Star newspaper, Money said โ€œI think that you might as well wrap up the League One championship trophy and give it to them now

โ€œThere havenโ€™t been many teams that have picked up much at the Liberty Stadium this season and they are very capable of putting teams to the sword.

โ€œItโ€™s a tough game, thereโ€™s no doubt about that.

โ€œIโ€™ve probably seen them more than anyone else this year and they are the best team in the division by a country mile,โ€ he said.

โ€œTheyโ€™re a good team all round. Theyโ€™ve got a lot of individuals that can hurt you.โ€

โ€œJason Scotland is obviously one of their key threats but I could name about six others and weโ€™re going to have to defend extremely well as a team if weโ€™re going to have any chance .โ€

โ€œWeโ€™ve got one or two doubts for tonight,โ€ Money said.

โ€œWrack canโ€™t play after suffering from concussion on Saturday and we will have to assess the situation regarding Mark Bradley today.

โ€œBut until I know exactly who is and who isnโ€™t fit I wonโ€™t know exactly what the team will be because weโ€™ve got one or two knocks.

โ€œAlex Nicholls has got stitches in his forehead as well so weโ€™ve got one or two bumps and bruises.โ€
