    S25/26 | The Official Match Thread | WBA vs The Swans | 3pm, Saturday 29th November 2025 | The EFL Championship l The Hawthorns

    I wouldn't argue too much with that lineup except that I would be looking at blooding Parker rather than Casey. One of those two is our player and is a full back by trade

    S25/26 | The Official Match Thread | Swansea 1 Derby 2 | Att: 14,251 | 25/11/25 | The EFL Championship | The Swansea.com Stadium

    It's a start One thing I never understood previously was how little we worked out wingers The point of having four wingers is that you work two of them hard to tire out full backs and then bring on the other two to attack tired defenders. If your wingers aren't blowing out of their backsides...

    S25/26 | The Official Match Thread | Swansea 1 Derby 2 | Att: 14,251 | 25/11/25 | The EFL Championship | The Swansea.com Stadium

    The telling thing for me is that Vipotnik is the one dropping deep to offer for the ball every time and not Cullen who is supposed to be playing in the 10 role. If Cullen isn't getting onto balls in the box and isn't dropping deep and isn't linking up play then what is he doing? That's the...

    Christiano Ronaldo and the World Cup

    FIFA not even pretending not to give out preferential treatment any more. Ronaldo has his 3 match ban for violent conduct (which would rule him out of the first game in the world cup) reduced to 1 match with two on probation - something which has never happened before...

    Far from the team I would have selected, today has for the most part been a free swing at bat for me though Lets see what the team does on the pitch

    Vitor Matos Named Swansea City Boss as New Era Begins at the Swansea.com Stadium

    I feel that expectations need to be tempered somewhat He is taking over a side who would be in a far worse position if it wasn't for Vipotnik and Vigouroux Derby meanwhile are bang on form even if they did throw away a 2-0 lead against Watford last time out, they had won the previous five on...

    S25/26 | The Official Match Thread | Swansea 1 Derby 2 | Att: 14,251 | 25/11/25 | The EFL Championship | The Swansea.com Stadium

    For now I expect there to be a number of times when we get the concerted press wrong The instinct to all suddenly press comes from hours of repetition on the training field It will definitely be an interesting watch though, by the sounds of him the lazy half assed press we got used to seeing...

    Harlan Perry

    I wouldn't be surprised if there was at least some element in that line of thinking. Especially considering the new owners have gone on record saying they want to restore cat 1 status to our academy

    Harlan Perry

    I remember watching him in a game streamed on swanstv last season and I thought he was a cut above most of the others on the pitch

    Vitor Matos | First Press Conference

    Can't argue much with what Vitor himself had to say. Well perhaps except that Leon and Joey won't be playing :LOL:

    The ‘Vítor Matos’ Managerial Thread

    I'm not expecting miracles tomorrow, but one thing I have noticed throughout the season is how easy our press is to beat. We were constantly pressing with only one or two players always leaving an easy out ball Ten games in six weeks doesn't give him a lot of time on the training ground to bed...

    He said "process" For some on here that's an automatic sackable offense

    The ‘Vítor Matos’ Managerial Thread

    I agree on the subs being clueless. The triple change I can understand, two up top, Stamenic hadn't played for over a month and Eom had been ineffective. The two changes after that though? Utterly shocking, even playing Football Manager the game would ask you wtf are you doing

    The ‘Vítor Matos’ Managerial Thread

    The lineup I could forgive him going "safe" even if I didn't like it But I agree the substitutions were utterly bizarre Taking off a full back and moving a center half to full back so that you can introduce... a center half. While 2-0 down Then taking off the other full back to introduce a...
