Are the Biscuitmen going to crumble or cause the Swans to stumble?

[CroJack]

This final pre-season friendly should give us a better idea of how we will play under Duff.

I expect to see more intensity, better passing, relentless pressing and, most of all, better defending.

 

[The Blobster]

Should give an indication of what his preferred starting 11 will be .
Will Ginnelly have a cameo ?

@CroJack I hope you’re right. For better or worse this is what we are going battle with.

I’m disappointed with the output to date of a number of last season’s regulars. Fulton being the exception. Too much deference has been paid to them it seems to the detriment of the likes of Thomas; this is their last chance to show that they deserved that deference

 

[CroJack]

Will Ginnelly have a cameo ?

Hope so. He is a class player.

If we don't show signs of improvement today I hold little hope of any success for us this season. The wrinkles should mostly have been ironed out by now but our progress has been slow to say the least.

 

[Yankee_Jack]

Swansea City: Andy Fisher, Josh Key, Jay Fulton, Ben Cabango, Harry Darling, Matt Grimes (captain), Jerry Yates, Olivier Ntcham, Joel Piroe, Nathan Wood, Azeem Abdulai.

Substitutes: Ben Hughes, Joe Allen, Josh Ginnelly, Jamie Paterson, Brandon Cooper, Liam Cullen, Kyle Naughton, Ollie Cooper, Filip Lissah.

 

[Yankee_Jack]

Piroe and Yates preferred over Thomas (not even on the bench) and Cullen.

 

[Yankee_Jack]

Hughes as bench keeper versus Webb

 

[Yankee_Jack]

Looks like a 3+2, with Key and Abulai as WBs

 

[CroJack]

I don't like this three-at-the-back formation. It is excessively defensive and leaves us vulnerable on the flanks.

 

[KVetch]

I'm not expecting much yet, I think it's going to take at least a month to see progress.

Agreed. However, certain improvements should be noticeable today.

 

[CroJack]

Where is the stream???

 

[CroJack]

There is no stream on the site

 

[ivoralljack]

Keep trying, I have mine so it is there. Leave the site and go back in from scratch, it might work.

 

[CroJack]

Nope. I am trying and nothing happens
So unprofessional

 

[The Blobster]

10 mins gone , 60% possession, 1 weak shot from Piroe. Same old Swans.

Sums up everything about us. I've got the stream but it's pretty crap as usual.

PS: Nothing to do with my connection either - I have high speed fibre.

They won't let me watch the game. Incompetent idiots.
