Season 24/25 | The Official Match Thread | Middlesbrough FC vs Swansea City | The EFL Championship

[bakajack]

Swansea City: Lawrence Vigouroux; Josh Key, Harry Darling, Ben Cabango, Josh Tymon; Matt Grimes (captain), Jay Fulton, Gonçalo Franco; Azeem Abdulai, Liam Cullen, Jisung Eom.

Substitutes: Nathan Broome, Kristian Pedersen, Žan Vipotnik, Nathan Tjoe-A-On, Kyle Naughton, Ollie Cooper, Ronald, Dan Watts, Josh Thomas.

No major surprises there, thought it was 50/50 if Zan would start.
Ronald on the bench is also not a major surprise.

That bench though

Its an extremely young bench indeed.
Other than Naughton everyone is early 20s or even younger.

 

[Itchysphincter]

I hoped Ronald and Van would start.

Must be fit to be on the bench. Start with your strongest. Expecting them to change things if we’re in a bad situation is defeatist mentality.

The line up doesn't inspire confidence.

Chances are both have less than 45 minutes in them. It would be rather silly to start with both and take them off after 30 minutes or so.

We have another 45 league games after today, no need to rush players back from injuries at this stage.

 

[bakajack]

Whether we are winning, losing or drawing both Zan and Ronald will be involved today.
Most likely scenario will be after 60 mins or so

Josh Thomas could get his first team debut too which is exciting for him.
I thought he looked very good in his cameo against Rio Ave

 

[magicdaps10]

Line up is as best as it can be with the injuries and still short by atleast 4 new players.
Hopefully we can grind a few points out between now and the end of the window.......by then we should have some players back fit and new faces.

Theres a new sky sports plus app if I remember correctly

 

[monmouth]

Goalie looks like a psycho. I like that in a keeper.

 

[bakajack]

Latte Lath will have a field day if we don't fix the errors that were evident at the back in 2nd half of Rio Ave friendly.
Hopefully the players will be switched on

The sky sports + thing isn't working for me
