The Official Barnsley FC v Swansea City Match Thread 01:10 - Oct 14 with 26084 views | jackharris | Sam Surridge and Tom Carroll make their first Championship starts of the season for Swansea City at Barnsley. Striker Surridge — fresh from scoring for England Under-21s over the international break — is preferred to Borja Bastos in attack. Carroll, meanwhile, makes his first league start in a year as he gets the nod in midfield as Jay Fulton misses out on a place in the matchday squad. Connor Roberts drops to the bench as Kyle Naughton moves to right-back and Jake Bidwell comes back into the side at left-back, while George Byers comes in for Yan Dhanda. Freddie Woodman continues in goal with Naughton and Bidwell on the flanks of a defence helmed by Mike van der Hoorn and Joe Rodon. Carroll partners captain Matt Grimes in midfield, with Andre Ayew and Bersant Celina playing either side of Byers. Surridge leads the line, while Kristoffer Nordfeldt is among the substitutes following illness. Barnsley: Brad Collins, Kenny Dougall, Jacob Brown, Cameron McGeehan, Cauley Woodrow, Conor Chaplin, Dimitri Cavare, Toby Sibbick, Aapo Halme, Alex Mowatt (captain), Bambo Diaby. Substitutes: Jack Walton, Mads Andersen, Ben Williams, Mike Bahre, Luke Thomas, Clarke Odour, Elliot Simoes. Swansea City: Freddie Woodman; Kyle Naughton, Mike van der Hoorn, Joe Rodon, Jake Bidwell; Matt Grimes (captain), Tom Carroll; Andre Ayew, George Byers, Bersant Celina; Sam Surridge. Substitutes: Kristoffer Nordfeldt, Ben Wilmot, Connor Roberts, Wayne Routledge, Kristoffer Peterson, Jordon Garrick, Borja Baston. [Post edited 19 Oct 2019 14:06]

All in all a good point taking today in isolation. But Cooper needs to start solving some issues and earning his salt. | ![](/images/avatars/9539.gif) |

Top of the table? You’re having a laugh. Distinctly average and getting worse. The team has lost its mojo. Relieved to get a point in the end. | ![](/images/avatars/11803.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Not a lot up front either, SS not up to it, BC wasted out wide, AA looked head and shoulders above the rest, the way he talks to other player and the ref I would give the Captain's armband, looks to heavy for Matt. thought their number 9 Woodrow looked sharp. | ![](/images/avatars/8703.gif) |

19th in the form table. 1 win in last 6, only two points above relegation form (so well off playoff form, if that’s the target). We’ve been poor since end-August. I didn’t see today, but sounds like we should be grateful for the point. Safe to say Cooper’s honeymoon period is over. [Post edited 19 Oct 2019 17:30]

I agree Ayew should be captain. He does the role anyway, and we might as well get as much value out of him as we can. Ok. I’ve said I cowin loves him now. [Post edited 19 Oct 2019 17:26]

Celebrating a point away at the mighty Barnsley who are in the relegation zone of the Championship. We were celebrating wins away at Old Trafford and Anfield just a few years back. Club is rotten from top to bottom, we’re clueless. | ![](/images/avatars/26012.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Yet we’re still unbeaten away from home, two defeats out of 12 this season and third in the league. Cheer up. It could be worse. We were crap for an hour today and got an away point. A point away from home is always good, right? And it’s Saturday evening, it’s not raining at the moment for what seems like the first time in about six weeks and my swig is just kicking in. Altogether now... we shall overcoooooome. | ![](/images/avatars/8641.gif) |
