In the blink of an eye Tom brings his cannons to south Wales, the man Leeds are now stating they wanted to sign, like a Michu to West Ham. The Potters are coming and not one of them is called Graham.
 Swansea City v Stoke City : Can the Swans make it ten points from fifteen ? 4th Oct 2024 13:49The Swans take on the Potters tomorrow afternoon (3pm Swansea.Com) with both managers looking to win the game. In Stoke City’s case they come to Swansea off the back of a 6-1 home win against Portsmouth. In the Swans case they have given a lot more hope to their followers with a very decent performance on Tuesday night, despite the 1-0 loss.  0

They take on Stoke City at the Swansea.Com (3pm) There is the opportunity for pay on the day for Swans fans.

 Chance after chance as the Swans draw another blank 6th Oct 2024 08:45The Swans were not a poor second yesterday at the Swansea.Com. What they were summed up the opening nine games of this league campaign. Frustrating and losing confidence. And all that despite bossing games and looking far better than at this stage last season. 1

It’s in Phil’s site but don’t know where they got it from.
They have to put the team out 60 mins before ko.
If it’s right, Grimes starts😳😂 |
We get ours from Reuters, I will talk with our link there and get some answers. |  |

No real surprises in the team. Still no fresh faces on the bench. |  |

It’s got ‘one of those days’ about it. It looks like we could play until midnight and not score.
Not a bad performance all round. Vipi a little slow to pounce and Ronald a bit of a mixed performance. Still hasn’t really beaten his man.
Eom excellent. Deserved a goal at the end. | |

I'd put this down as an encouraging performance, but one that again illustrates that our striker problem remains. We've seen before that Ronald is not a clinical finisher and so it proved again today with two or three good opportunities wasted. Eom was unlucky with his shot against the bar, but one gets the sense that we could be playing for a long while before a goal comes. Sadly, we always have a mistake in us, so we can't even be confident of a clean sheet in what is a pretty one-sided game. | | | |

Have had to put comms off on SwansTV as it’s out of sync again. Very annoying. | |

Club site stated it was only available outside the UK.
Started on time this time, but the audio is about 1 second in front of the video. |  |

Could have still been playing late tonight and not scored, though I think we would have conceded by then. Things got even worse when the subs came on. Supporters come to see goals and our toothless attack is starting to be reflected in home attendances. | | | |

We could pull your teeth out and put seats in.🤔 I'm sure we could fit the whole squad in. |  | | |

We are very predictable to be fair. As I said in the week, we need something straight off the training ground. There’s nothing.
Some good performances, some mediocre but they did keep going to 90+ again.
As I said earlier though, we could be there until midnight and still not score. | |

Sorry
How does that relate to the thread
That said , talking of seats, so many are empty because they won't be patronised by our " coach",
It looks as if we play for nil nil draws | |

I think we need to start tempering praise of Oli. Can't fault his workrate and effort, but again he created very little if anything which is something of an issue with your main attacking midfielder. Hustle and Bustle isn't enough.
For all people grumble about our striking options, for me the issue is with the service to them. For one brief moment in the second half it looked like they'd finally worked out how to play to Vipotnik, then he got hooked minutes after.
Bianchini put over more decent crosses in one five minute spell than Ronnie has in the last four or five games. I'd be amazed if he's not still on the bench as a reward next game.
Overall we moved the ball too slowly, we dithered when getting into attacking positions, and didn't work their keeper anything like as often enough. |  |
| Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back. |

VIP showed touches of skill on the deck and had a superb diving header saved
Then ,he was starved again .
It’s obvious what is really killing us . | |

You mention the service to the front line but make the most appropriate point in your last sentence. It is indeed the speed of the service which lets us down.
Now if we had big forwards who could aerially compete with defences it might not be such an issue but I can’t think of more than a handful of occasions where we got our head to the ball first. One occasion was when Vipi got in front of his man and made the keeper work.
I made the analogy in a previous post of our play being like a game of Snakes and Ladders and today highlighted that point to me. | |

We're looking for a goal scoring forward. A cracker in the stadium today - Giovanni Savarese !! |  |
| Everyday above ground ... Is a good day! 😎 |

Very encouraged by what I saw of Vipotik today, need to work out how they get the best of him. Thought he looked a bit Piroesque at times when he had the ball. |  | | |

Anybody know what he was doing here? Was it just a case of being in the UK and wanting to watch one of his old clubs (2000-2001 season)? | | | |

Oli is a piano carrier not a piano player. A grafter and great attitude but not match winner. Liked the look of Vip today. We need a creative no 10 to get the best out of him. Also don't think we need Grimes playing as a 3rd Centre back, not at home. | | | |
