Vipi very happy plus Sheehan on the League Cup
Alan Sheehan and Pep Guardiola have given us their thoughts on tonight’s game in the fourth round of the League Cup as the Swans go looking for what would be classed as a giant killing. The game is a sell out and the kick off is 7:45pm at the swansea.com.
This morning we catch up with all the news around this fixture. Alan Sheehan spoke about how big the game is for him and the club plus rotation. Yes there will be changes but maybe not as many as we first thought ?
Whilst Pep Guardiola seemed more concerned about Rodri and danger man Haaland, however it looks unlikely neither will play as he concedes that there could be more changes. Tjani won’t start. Guardiola states he probably prepares even more for games like today.
Despite Sheehan’s concern regards suspensions, we have been informed that yellow cards do not carry over to the league, the only carry over is if a player is red carded.
We also are grateful to Swans TV for this insight into Zān Vipotnik. You can be rest assured he will take to the pitch at some point this evening.

Big match report : Swans let it slip again at MillwallIt happens a lot would be the recollection from the Sheehan era. Unfortunately It still happens is the comment on Vitor Matos’s stewardship to date. And that’s conceding goals at the end of games and halves. Having got themselves into a position to take a point away from the New Den an added time winner from Millwall undone all the Swans hard work.
Millwall v Swans plus player in Swansea for talks The Swans travelled from Swansea to their overnight accommodation prior to taking on Millwall at the New Den tomorrow (3pm) - today. A fully confident squad with more wins than losses in December. Then of course the opening game of the new year on January 1st saw the Swans defeat WBA 1-0.
Swans scrap it out to beat the Baggies There were some worried looks when Swansea head coach, Vitor Matos announced his starting eleven against West Bromwich Albion, not least the fact he had no striker in the team. It turned out to be a masterstroke despite a fifteen minute period in the second half, and some uneasy moments at the end of this Championship fixture.
