You don’t know what South Wales derbies are like. You don’t know what Wales games are like. Both are very different to the last time you attended.
Anyone who attends games is in a position to educate you. |

It’s not a Swans v Cardiff vibe. It’s about supporting your country.
A lot of people there aren’t interested in club football |

This stung us under Williams and Sheehan (although we have more depth this season).
Playing our best eleven and dominating for 60/70 minutes, then losing points when the subs come on. Matos uses the same pool of players but seems happier to rotate who starts and who comes on. Also not afraid to make big early changes when it’s not working, like Tuesday |

It’s not a traffic warden forum though is it? We come here to discuss the Swans.
People disagree on players merits. Most of us can articulate why. A small minority need to resort to high volume, low content nonsense.
I agree with you on one thing though, a player regularly getting picked by club and country probably doesn’t care what people on the internet think about him. |

Up until now I’ve seen him as an impact sub, better in broken play against tiring opponents.
But I’m coming round to thinking he deserves to be starting. His decision making is much better than it was earlier in the season. He’s far less erratic without losing his intensity or the good kind of unpredictably that opens up gaps |

I don’t think he’s ready. You wouldn’t expect him to be match fit, but he was all over the shop positionally and seemed a bit tentative of the physical side of it. It’s easy to pass around our press if we have one player not in synch with his teammates.
He’s clearly very highly rated and you can see he’s got quality. I think it’s going to take him a while to adjust. When he does, he may well be the player we’ve been missing for years. I just think we’re rushing him.
In fairness to Matos, the triple change was perfect. Two midfielders pressing hard alongside Vipotnik and Widell and Cullen in reserve for when Franco ran himself into the ground.
Had Yalcouye put that chance away early second half, I think we would have overwhelmed them. We were easily the better team when we imposed our game on them. |

I thought that took a turn for the better last night. It’s only 45 minutes, but I thought Key had a really good game. |

Ok just two points. My first paragraph isn’t even a matter of opinion, it’s fact. Those players largely weren’t/aren’t rated by a lot of fans but regularly get picked by football professionals. That’s self evidently correct
You can disagree about managers taking a more holistic view of how the team functions with that particular player and they put a lot of focus on what the player does off the ball if you want, but you won’t be able to put up a credible argument for it.
The other is the vast majority of us come on here to talk about the Swans, not attention seek. If I don’t think I’ve got anything to add to a thread, I don’t post. I would guess that applies to almost all of us |

Cullen is one of those players managers rate higher than fans.
Fulton, Routledge and Naughton, even Ronald all the same. Fans look at the player, pretty much solely what he does on the ball, managers look how the team functions with that player in it.
I think he may start to get squeezed out next season, purely because we’re investing more into the team and the standards are getting raised. Far better player than he gets credit for though. |

I get we rate Walta very highly and he’ll only get up to speed by playing games, but he shouldn’t be anywhere near the starting line up yet. I’m all for it last couple of games if we’ve got nothing to play for
It just passed him by. He didn’t appear to know where he was supposed to be, shied away from tackles and both of those things hurt our pressing game |

Key was the biggest plus for me last night, he looked like his old self |

To be fair, having thought about it at lot of the walk ups are probably Swans fans who just go now and then. May as well pick this game over any other.
Get an early goal and get on top of them and it will be bouncing all night. I can’t wait |

This is a fair concern. Pre-game it will be electric. Preston will be looking to make the game boring and take the crowd out of it.
I’ve honestly no idea if it will be bouncing all night, or if it will go flat early in the game, particularly with a few thousand not really there for the football.
Players have got to be professional and Matos will be lasered in on that, but it’s probably not the easiest thing to do in these circumstances. |

We aren’t the target market. They haven’t brought Snoop Dogg and Luca Modric on board to increase sales in Swansea |

Is that sponsorship or a collaboration?
I don’t know what cut we get out of selling that range, but we stand to gain a lot more from being associated with Snoop Dogg and Death Row than they do. We’ll sell a lot more of that range than our usual stock.
Matos wearing a hoodie with SCFC and Death Row on it probably doesn’t move their needle that much. Snoop wearing the same hoodie increases our profile massively.
He’s globally recognisable |
