Midfield 3 yesterday 08:27 - Aug 17 with 1210 viewsandrew

Best I’ve seen for a long time. But with this new player coming in for apparently 4.5 million, surely that means Franco is gone. I do not see one of today’s 3 sitting on the bench, nor do I see us affording 4.5m.

Poll: Can’t see the new guy coming in to sit on the bench so, who’s off?

1. He's not coming in for £4.5m.

2. It's a long old season and our midfield is clearly going to be doing a lot of work. It'll be nice to be able to rotate quality with quality.

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.

Agree.
If our midfield are going to continue playing with that type of intensity every week (which I hope we do) then we will need 3 like for like replacements to come on most games on the hour mark.
It's a squad game these days - 16 players not 11.

Replacements, injury cover, rotation. If we're going to be playing intensive football we'll need to be able to handle all three.

For the same reason I wouldn't be hugely surprised to see another winger brought in. Can rotate Ronald/Eom/Inoussa/Newbie too, and that's without factoring Widell in as an option.

Definitely need another winger, the starting 2 can run their blood to water then the next two can do the same.

Sam Parker can possibly do a job there.

Exactly. We lost so many points last season because the opposition brought on better quality substitutions than we did. Football is now a sixteen player game, a strong starting 11 is not good enough anymore.

Yes. Figure I heard may not be the right one, it’s just when you’re a swans fan you are used to loads of signings meaning big player being sold.
