    This does raise an important point (even though I have no idea how good this particular prospect might be) Managing the contracts of your academy players and providing a pathway to the first team are crucial parts of what makes a successful club. At least Matos will get that - after all it was...

    He wasn't signed to be a starter - but his pedigree suggests he can be a good squad player. It is a good job he is an experienced pro - because dogs abuse on no evidence can crush your confidence.

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

    My minimum expectation is that the Swans play with the energy of a cup final. Beyond that we tackle a Derby side that are missing a few key players and are on the road on a short turn around. Anything less than a win would be troublesome, but if we see tangible improvements to our general (and...

    Makes me laugh - just returned from a really bad injury and played for 10 minutes in a dysfunctional tactical set up. Even for this forum that is a special take. I wonder what the concensus was on Guehi after his first 10 minutes?? Bugger me

    I am thrilled that Joey and Leon are helping the settling in process - but how the fook are they going to find the kettle?

    If he takes advice from Joey and Leon - we might see quitye a shake up. Definitely Cabango andf Tymon will tighten us up - but what can we create with a new boss. He certainly wants a high and intense press - so Widell should be a shoe in.

    So England decided to have a warm up game after all to "knock the rust off"..They just chose the first test!

    I always think - if I was the opposition full back - who would I rather face? Eom is one paced and programmed to cut one way. innousa is lightening and a bag of tricks. It really isn't difficult - give the boy a run. No slight on Eom by the way - I would pick him ahead of Ronald.

    Interesting to see Carlton Morris subbed after 18 minutes - injured? I will be happy not to see his ugly mug on Tuesday TBH

    The ‘Vítor Matos’ Managerial Thread

    Yes - - but we have shown that we can be better than this. We need to find the right combinations, BUT we don't normally give goals away as easily as the last 2 games we continue to malfunction on set pieces (COACHING!!) selection, tactics, negativity and confidence are stopping us creating...

    In short - yes! Talented players badly coached.

    The ‘Vítor Matos’ Managerial Thread

    I will be an outlier here - but I honestly believe that we were closely matched with Brizzle - who are a top 6 team on their own patch. The big difference is that we are totally deficient in both penalty areas. Giving terrible goals away (all 3) and hardly creating jack shit from promising...

    I don't think I have ever seen 2 players get into dangerous areas and deliver the square root of nothing as Eom and especially Ronald. Their delivery into the penalty area is absolutely woeful - it is no wonder we are down on all available attacking metrics. Not our only problem, by any means -...

    There are a few things (no doubt this site can add to the list) that are perceived wisdom, but really have me scratching my head * All Brazilians are good at football * Cullen is an intelligent world class footballer * The top 6 in the championship are streets ahead of the bottom 6 * It is...

    With the celtic connection I always thought Idah would get the nod. He needs to step upbig time as Vipotnik looms large on the bench.

    The ‘Vítor Matos’ Managerial Thread

    If true - we need to get behind this guy and give him the chance to prove he has what it takes to be a number one in coach in the toughest division in World football. Interestingly over the past couple of decades we have appointed 3 Portuguese managers and maybe 1 Welsh manager.. (unless I am...

    Money talks obviously...BUT I do feel that taking the Boro job comes with a lot of expectations and a decent chance of regression. I have seen them a few times and been underwhelmed - and I believe they are greater than the sum of their parts. They do also, however, have the most patient and...

    At the risk of getting shot down in flames- i believe Will Still has something about him. Enough to land a bigger job than ours Failing at a basket case club should not necessarily be a deal breaker 🤔👍
