Swnansea v Exeter

[Yankee_Jack]

Swansea City: Erwin Mulder; Kyle Naughton, Mike van der Hoorn, Joe Rodon, Jake Bidwell; George Byers, Matt Grimes (captain); Nathan Dyer, Bersant Celina, Barrie McKay; Oli McBurnie.

Subs: Kristoffer Nordfeldt, Connor Roberts, Ben Cabango, Brandon Cooper, Declan John, Jack Evans, Jay Fulton, Wayne Routledge, Yan Dhanda, Joel Asoro, Borja Baston.

Borja is a sub. Most expensive sub we’ve ever had. No CBR. No Fulton.

 

[Yankee_Jack]

Celina hits a lovely direct free kick into the near top corner.

 

[Yankee_Jack]

Tedious end to the first half. 2-0 lead. We dropped whatever intensity and tempo we had during the half. Should be doing better.

Celina with 2 goals and will be looking for his hat-trick.

 

[CroJack]

Great football by the Swans. Passing at higher tempo and pressing more than last season.

Steve Cooper is doing well.

And by the way, keep Mulder as our first goalie.

 

[Yankee_Jack]

Would like to see Borja get a few minutes.

 

[Yankee_Jack]

Here we go. Borja leads the line

 

[CroJack]

Here we go. Borja leads the line

Lost connection at Vienna airport in the middle of the second half. Can Borja run?

 

[The Blobster]

Like a headless chicken.
3-1 win but not as sharp as against yeovil

 

[ivoralljack]

He was hardly given a chance. By then the game had become scrappy with all the substitutions and he literally had to live off scraps. Absolutely no chance to make an impact. Declan John had a couple of nice touches along the left and should have scored after a nice move between him and Routs left him one on one with the keeper. All in all, a disjointed performance from us with some encouraging glimpses in between.
