For the Swans, Ben Cabango back to stiffen the defence, Joe Allen and Josh Ginnelly on the bench and back from injury.
For Reading our old enemy Andy Carroll plays and also ex-Swan Tivonge Rushesha. Charlie Savage, Robbie Savage’s son, recently arrived on loan from Man U, who we were supposedly interested in signing.

Full Time
Reading 0 - Swansea 4 (Piroe 24’ 50’, Yates 53’, Grimes 56’)
-
A clean sheet and Carroll didn’t score against us for the first time in yonks.
It’s a boost for next Saturday against Birmingham in the season opener.

-
Back on course today after two setbacks, and with the injured coming back we look a bit stronger.
More signings coming in next week apparently. Things are looking brighter.

Much improved performance after the last two setbacks, augers well for the Birmingham opener.
