Alan Sheehan.

[WentToSchoolWith]

I'd argue that every single player apart from Key has improved under Sheehan. The tune he is getting out of Ronald and Vipotnik is borderline unbelievable. Even Fisher looks like a decent backup keeper!

 

[Swans Jack]

Any update?

He will only come out when we lose.

 

[Swans Jack]

ALL of the above applies.

Forest were strolling it, coulda won it 6-1 towards the end until some happily bizarre turn of events.

The bizarre turn of events changes nothing about the facts that have stood this term.


EDIT -almost all posters were expecting a proper drubbing towards the end of that game, check it out - facts speak volumes

Do us all a favour just do one. You can't ruin this result.

How some people think Sheehan is not an upgrade on the previous 4 years is beyond me.

Sheeeezy is ofc an upgrade on the MArtinandhisWilly era of total, utter embarrassment

You conveniently miss the point though. As per.

Sheeeezy is our limiting factor - we have invested gazillions of talent acquisition effort and £s to get a massively richly talented squad in situ.

Sheeeezy isn't a richly talented Manager befitting of our richly assembled squad - that facts and posters' emotive comments speak for themselves

Im finally convinced your writing this shit from a mental institute.

If you can’t take enormous pleasure from a game like that, especially an ending like that, then you’re not a Swans fan.
If you would prefer the Swans to lose than win because you think it would prove you right on the internet, then you’re not a Swans fan.

You are right, Forest showed a bit of complacency and should have easily buried us with some big sitters missed for 3-1. You could see the huge gulf in class between premier league and championship, but credit for the comeback and not giving in.

I was critical of Franco's role in midfield yesterday, 0-2 when he was on pitch, 3-2 off the pitch, just give me a ring Alan if you want me to fix the midfield(joke). The centre midfield jigsaw still needs sorting, we are hardly creating anything down the middle, Forest cut through us with ease at times, just wish we had more of that for the championship instead of relying on wingers.

 

[JackSomething]

I get that Forest missed some big chances to finish us off last night, although only McAtee's effort in the first half would be one I would call a 'sitter'.

However, some of the best results in football history have been achieved despite the losing team having far more chances than the winners. I've never seen a single Welsh football fan say 'we were so lucky against Belgium in Euro 2016 because they missed loads of great chances...'

 

[Swansea93]

Not bad at all for someone in their first crack at managing, well done Sheezy

We just knocked out a Premier League team who play European football after being 2-0 down, that mentality isn’t something to be ignored.

Under Martin or Williams that's exactly what would have happened - we'd have given in. Probably lost 5-1. That's what usually happened anytime we played anyone half decent.

This side is made of sterner stuff.

Wycombe tore us a new one last season. Now we're coming back from two nil down against a team who just missed out on qualifying for the Champions League.

Not to be negative (because we are definitely better this season) or contrarian for the sake of it but we did revert to the bad habit of sitting back and defending for the last 20 minutes before conceding a 97th minute equaliser just a few days ago.

We've seen signs of potential and the squad is probably as strong and exciting as it's been since Cooper's last season but they still need to shake that habit of trying to defend a lead, instead of carrying on doing what works and killing games off

And then been ‘proud’ because we were ‘brave’ went ‘toe to toe’ for 15 minutes before folding like a Splott girl after a babycham. Look no further than Fulham games.

As I said on Saturday, if Hull had equalised 15 minutes earlier, I think we win that game. Mindset definitely needs a tweak.
