Sheff Utd v Swansea
It’s hard to be optimistic after watching our last match, conceding four goals at home to a team 19th in the league with five straight defeats behind them.
It looks like we’ve learned very little in the 18 months Martin has been in charge, the same defensive mistakes in a system that the players cannot get to grips with.
Today we face a huge task playing an in-form team, unbeaten since last November, 1 defeat in 17 matches, second in the table, and one foot back in the PL, 10 points ahead of third placed Blackburn, who we play next Saturday.
It’s another team with an ex-Swan in it, Oli McBurnie, what’s the odds he’ll score against us, as per usual.
Team news - Latibeaudiere is out with a calf injury, Naughton or Sorinola to replace at right-back. Joe Allen and long-term out injured Liam Walsh return.
-
Swans: Andy Fisher, Kyle Naughton, Ben Cabango, Nathan Wood, Ryan Manning, Jay Fulton, Matt Grimes (c), Olivier Ntcham, Ollie Cooper, Liam Cullen, Joel Piroe.
Subs: Lewis Webb, Harry Darling, Joe Allen, Luke Cundle, Morgan Whittaker, Liam Walsh, Matty Sorinola.

No surprise, more defensive mistakes.

Back to back defeats and seven goals conceded, this can’t go on.
