• We have today (22nd April) confirmed the closure of JackArmy.net on 31st May. Our reasons are varied but after a twenty-five year stint at the heart of the online Swansea City community, the time is right for us to bow out.

    Are we doing OK or underachieving?

    "I'm happy not improving because 20 odd years ago we were shit." What an odd argument to make.

    Are we doing OK or underachieving?

    Comparisons with Williams should be moot because our expectations should have been elevated. Sheehan finished last season gaining 1.9ppg, lost 3 players from the first team squad and spent nearly £15m. When you compare then player we've lost/gained (Darling/Burgess, O'Brien/Galbraith etc.) you...

    We are currently: 24th for xg. 24th for big chances. 24th for touches in the opposition box. 22nd for shots on target per match. You could make a very convincing argument that we are the worst attacking side in the division.

    We looked so much worse than usual first half. As soon as we went one down it was like the players were allowed to make forward-thinking passes and we looked better. It's not a formation issue, it's a tactical one.

    15 of those were in League One to be fair.

    The pressing structure is abysmal. We are basically playing 4-0-6 out of possession which is leaving a massive space in front of the centre halves. As soon as Norwich beat the initial press the have the simplest of outballs to a man in acres.

    Samuels-Smith has jumped onto Eom's man a number of times this half and has left their winger in acres. Punished for it there.

    A marked improvement in the second half. When our midfielders receive the ball and turn towards their goal rather than play it safe we look so much more threatening. Both goals came from midfield runners breaking the lines and getting people around the box. I wonder if the contrast in play is...

    S25/26 | Swansea 1 (Vipotnik) Watford 1 | Att: 15,543 | The Official Match Thread | The Swansea.com Stadium | The EFL Championship

    The problem is that when Cullen is up front we are basically removing crosses as an option. Teams are more than happy to let us have it around the penalty area because they know if we chuck it in the box they are likely to beat our 5' 10 striker to the ball. Once Vip came on, their wingbacks...

    Cullen v Sheff Utd

    It wasn't just his hold up play yesterday; he couldn't connect with two free headers from 8 yards out and scuffed a sitter just before the goal. He played some lovely through-balls when he dropped deeper but you aren't going to want to crowbar him into a midfield three that already looks...
