The Swans have no additional injuries from the information available, although at least five key first team players are out until January. Alan Sheehan starts out on his search for consistency today, "So it is about finding the formula to be consistent in every game, which we have been at times this season. We know it will be a tough game, we have a whole lot of respect for Rotherham and the challenge they will represent. But I firmly believe it is about us, how we do things and how we can hurt them. That’s what the mindset has been, focusing on how we can beat the opposition in front of us”
Sheehan as much as anyone is stepping in to a situation many have done in Swans history, he is a likeable individual brought to the club by Paul Watson in the summer. We can only hope he is up to the position he is now in.

What to read next:
Swansea City : On the cusp in a very good way ! Two players who have come to Swansea City in the last two seasons from London clubs have earned a position on the clubs retained list this weekend. Both are considered exceptional talents by the Swans academy, and their dream remains alive to become full professional players in the first team squad.
Swans confirm who is staying and congratulations Abdulai ! As we stated this morning Swansea City have released their retained list and also confirmed the signing of Joe Allen for another year. The midfielder has been sitting on an offer for some weeks but indicated via a third party to us he would sign.
Swans retained list and Owain Tudur Jones on Paul Watson We understand that the Swans retained list will be announced today or at the latest on Saturday. And of course that includes players that will be released by the club from the academy and first team squad. So, the Swans plans and immediate future regards players coming in will become much clearer. Or at least the areas they need to target.
Swansea City : Where are the Swans today on all their player business ? Bar the Macaulay Langstaff news there has been little of any concrete info in the offing this week. Mind you that alone caused a stir. Between now and the transfer window opening on June 14th, which is the date for the European Championships to start there will be little to speculate on.
Swansea City : The confusing decision making for a whole season It was a pretty poor end to what can only be described as a disappointing football season for Swansea City. The defeat to Millwall yesterday was a display that has frustrated Swansea City supporters all season. A lack of effort, intensity and desire rewarding the home support with yet another home loss.
