Huw Jenkins might just be the greatest chairman operating in world football. Most people scoffed when Garry Monk was hand-picked to replace Michael Laudrup as Swansea gaffer, but it’s already starting to look like another inspired decision. Prior to Monk, the recent managerial roll at the Liberty Stadium read: Roberto Martinez, Paulo Sousa, Brendan Rodgers, Laudrup. All four played aesthetic, attacking football; all four carried Swansea to new heights. Monk seems set to make that five from five. I like it. | |
