The Swans have gained a habit in the top flight of beating the so called bigger teams with league wins now achieved 9 times against the so called big four of Chelsea, Manchester City, Arsenal and Manchester United and let’s not forget cup wins over Chelsea and Manchester United as well.<\/p>\n
The latest of those came on Sunday when Andre Ayew and Bafetimbi Gomis struck to give the Swans a third consecutive win over the Old Trafford side and that has attracted much attention as the Swans lift themselves into fourth place in the Premier League which has now taken a break for internationals.<\/p>\n
Collymore has been extremely praising of the Swans and the style that we have developed over the past ten years which has seen teams at all levels play with the same style as part of the philosophy that we work with.<\/p>\n
And it certainly works at first team level as we have an uncanny knack of seemingly improving every season and just once in the period since Roberto Martinez took over in 2006 have we finished in a lower placing than the season before which is an incredible statistic in itself.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not so much of a surprise when you look why and why the Pride of South Wales are embarrassing United, Arsenal, Spurs and Liverpool in particular, on an almost daily basis,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d said Collymore.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Swansea buy players at the beginning of the window, bedding them into the team.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153United, Liverpool, Spurs and Arsenal will probably all be on the phones looking for key ingredients around 5pm Tuesday.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Swansea have a system of play that goes from youth to first team. A seamless journey if you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re an 18 year old for example.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Do Spurs have a system of play? Do either Liverpool, United or Arsenal promote youth that they, not other clubs, have developed anymore?<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Swansea get the management criteria right, young, principled, ambitious.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Spurs? Old and experienced Harry who worked without a DoF, or young AvB or Poch , the polar opposite. Liverpool went Roy, back to Kenny, Rafa the benign dictator, and Brendan the coach.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153United wanted to give a Fergie protege a chance in Moyes but ended up with a guy who, if he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s honest, was probably looking at topping up his pension rather than turning a juggernaut around.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153The Swans? Martinez, Rodgers, Laudrup, Monk. Coaches, similar style, all adding something from the next.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153So Man United, Liverpool, Spurs, Arsenal, and even to a degree Chelsea and City who were huge underachievers before the money came along, maybe you all should look at little old Swansea to run a football club, you may just get the consistency you all crave!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n
