| Sheffield Wednesday v Swansea City : Match day thread 15:39 - Aug 27 with 11584 views | ModeratorC |
An away trip for the second time this season takes the Jack Army to Sheffield, and in particular the Owls this Saturday with a 3pm Kick Off. The Owls can be described as having an underwhelming start with lacklustre league form but some resilience in cup games. They are in the third round of the League Cup. Severe financial woes, structural issues, ownership controversy, but possible takeover / investment in progress via an ex Crystal Palace owner.

Excellent performance, so much confidence in the side. |
Quality throughout the side and on the bench we look a very solid side, but I still feel we need more up top. |  | | |

Honestly, as strong as a midfield of Galbraith, Franco and Stamenic is, it could use a little bit more creativity for me.
Almost sounds like sacrilege to say it, but for the next home game I'd like to see Widell in ahead of Franco. Just to add a little more to the tip of the midfield spear.
Away games maybe keep the setup we started with today, with the flexibility to change things up as required. |  |

Need to be more clinical on chances made, but an away win is all we can ask for 👍 |  |

Impressed with Galbraith and Stamenic, controlled the game. |  | | |

Strikers thrive on confidence. Support him, give him service, and we'll see what he can do. |
Bang on | | | |

Stamenic one touch football when needed in the middle of the park making himself available with lots of movement although by staying mainly centrally with player movement around him he was giving other players options and time to progress forward from deeper instead of trying to make momentum from standing starts.
On the whole a good team performance away from home. [Post edited 30 Aug 17:16]

Stamenic might turn out to be our most significant buy
Galbraith is going to be very very good
Football turns to be obsessed devout
Last month we were ripping into VIP now hoping he stays
And he should
No fork ups today although Weds were dire
Anyway Wtectum won with Moore again and Lewis OBrien in the 28th min of injury time [Post edited 30 Aug 17:17]

Maybe we don't spend the money on Idah? Spend it on another striker that's not as expensive, or a loan? Something to consider. Or, go back to Celtic and change the purchase price/terms. Would make Rodgers stall tactic look foolish. | | | |

I’d agree
He’s not “ outstanding” enough to offload VIP
I’d rather Cullen go though
anyway, we look ok | |

Ithought it would be a tougher game than that, we wasted some chances/opportunities for chances.
Some lovely looking patches of one touch football, but was that die to a poor Wed?
our finishing at times is pathetic, and someone please tell Eom to pass sometimes !!! |  | | |

Teddy Bears have been postponed until after the international window. Hopefully the Swans fans brought theirs back with them to donate to Morriston Hospital. | | | |

Agree with all of that particularly the finishing. 2-0 up with 10 minutes to go why was Wales not given a run out, he could be the best natural finisher at the club. | | | |

It's not just the crosses really. He very much looks a front foot player needing anything to attack, which was no use to Williams at all, and if we are looking for a fulcrum up front explains why Sheehan has had his doubts.
But his tail is clearly up at present, as evidenced also by that lovely little one touch 20-30 yard pass around the corner for Ronald to attack. I hope bridges haven't been burned and he can be convinced to stay and actually backed by coaches and fans. [Post edited 30 Aug 16:53]

If he plays like he did in the second half, I’ll back him.
That was the striker we thought we were getting last year. Not just the goal and the assist, but he imposed himself on the game and made things happen rather than waiting to be fed. I’ve got a bit of hope after today | | | |

Just a guess, but we may be waiting until we bring in a physical striker who can hold the ball up before we start easing Wales in. He’s not much taller than Cullen and doesn’t look very physical. Don’t think he’s here to play up front on his own. | | | |

Cracking result away from home , the midfield really looking like the complete unit .Some lovely one touch interplay should have been rewarded with more than the 2 goals but hi ho no one should be unhappy after watching that second half today. | |

Only word of caution is Wednesday were very, very poor, as you’d expect given what they’ve been through.
We pretty much controlled the whole game from about 10/15 minutes in. Can only beat what’s in front of you, but that’s going to be one of our easiest games this season. | | | |

Good performance. Well needed 3 points.
Could have been 6 - 0. Got to take our chances.
VIP well done. | |

They drew away to Wrexham and home to Leeds in the last week. Are they really that bad, I would rather say we are becoming a very good team. | | | |

Yes, they were terrible.
Not a criticism of us, I think we could have gone up a gear if we’d had to. There will be much harder games than that
Edit - just had a look and that draw at Wrexham was their only point so far. I’m not surprised [Post edited 30 Aug 19:56]

I was the only one supporting him a few weeks ago. Left foot today, right foot against Plymouth, header against Watford. He even got an assist today. Like all strikers, he needs feeding, but his confidence must be sky high right now. The international break is at the wrong time for us and for him, but let's look forward to Hull City. |
No you weren’t. Far from it | | | |
