Guidolin Presser 16:04 - Aug 11 with 4613 views | AustinIsOurHero | http://www.swanseacity.net/news/article/2016-17/swansea-city-boss-francesco-guid Guidolin Press Conference: 1. Has identified Ash's replacement but is in no hurry. One more signing to come in this window. 2. Doesn't know if he's allowed to appoint the next captain - most likely to be Leon when he plays. 3. Borja won't be involved on Saturday. Not had a chance to train yet - sticking with squad from pre season. Happy with current squad of players. | ![](/images/avatars/14674.gif) |

I'd like to see Fab Naughton Fede (VDH if Fede not fit) Amat Kingsley Cork Fer Siggy Barrow Routs Llorente If Siggy is not ready, bring in Britton and play a flatter midfield. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Keane is supposed to be £20m isn't he? Ben Davies? Don't think it will be by the way, but I think he'd be good CB / FB flexibility. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Guidolin Presser on 16:50 - Aug 11 with 4280 views | Zut_Alors | what a nice chap Guido seems. That bit about Ash felt really genuine and i think it's great he seems to have a strong relationship with Curtis too. Think Garry marginalised Alan to his detriment. He showed during his brief time in charge what an excellent motivator he was and Franco seems wise to tap into that too. Humble and ambitious. I like that too. I think we'll do well this year.

I completely agree, its a shame he can't quite articulate what he wants to say at times yet but he comes across as a really genuine bloke. I've come over all warm and optimistic after watching that! | ![](/images/avatars/9319.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) | Login to get fewer ads
Guidolin Presser on 18:53 - Aug 11 with 3702 views | TheKirkyLife | I think a lot of people are reading the whole CB thing absolutely wrong. "We need a new central defender, although I am happy with my group and there is no rush." If we were looking for a fully-fledged Ash replacement there would most certainly have been a rush. Amat deserves his chance to be our CB for the season and I'm happy for him, such a shame some people on here still can't get that into their heads. No rush means he'll use Rodon if need be but likely looking for a Van der Hoorn competition. | ![](/images/avatars/18766.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

100% agree with your reading of what he said. I think he recognises Rodon is not quite ready to push Van or the other centre backs, but Amat and Fede are definitely the first choice pair which he is very 'appy with. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |
