It’s FA Cup Fourth Round this Saturday as we welcome League One Gillingham to the Liberty.
They knocked out PL Cardiff in the last round and will be up for this game and looking to cause another upset.
Their manager is Swansea born and bred Steve Lovell, he was hoping the Gills would draw the Swans and he got his wish.
Last round the Swans had an emphatic 0-3 win at Aston Villa, fielding a strong team.
This round, with the re-arranged league game against Birmingham just three days later, it’s a selection dilemma for Potter as he may want to rest some of the first team.
Due to Rodon’s injury last match we are short of cover in central defence.
Carter-Vickers came on as sub in that match to replace Rodon as the only other senior centre back.
Cian Harries from the under 23’s will now have to be utilised as cover in this position, as I cannot see any movement in the transfer market with no funds available.
The American owners have steadfastly refused to invest any of their money in the club since they took over.
One wonders what they are doing here in the first place, other than to milk the club dry of course, recover their purchase outlay with profit, and then dump us when the parachute payments dry up.
