Newport County & Swansea City team news
County have had a busy window with the signings of striker Ryan Taylor from Plymouth, David Longe-King from St Albans City, Saikou Janneh from Bristol City and right-back Liam Shephard from fellow League Two side Forest Green Rovers.
With the losses of Brewster and club captain Mike Van Der Hoorn, Swansea have bolstered their squad with the signing of winger Jamal Lowe, Korey Smith from Bristol City, resigning Freddie Woodman from Newcastle and Marc Guehi from Chelsea on loan and a further loan signing of Wolves midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White.
Both squads could be full of debutants come Saturday at Rodney Parade.
ONE TO WATCH
Morgan Gibbs-White
SWANSEA CITY
Midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White is one of the most promising young players in English football, having won both the Championship with Wolves and the Under-17 World Cup with England in 2017.
The 20-year-old has made 53 appearances for Wolves so far, and scored his first goal for the club in August 2019 during the clubs Europa League qualifier with FC Pyunik.
Gibbs-White will be hoping he can establish himself as a first-team regular this season, and that could start with a debut this weekend.
Updates to follow. Join in Jacks and enjoy the game.

He should concentrate on his pile of rubbish losing 1-0 at Northampton. |
He said Scumdiff are unlucky.
However we are being outplayed |  | | |

Well he would say that, however we are just unable to get beyond their back four, one goal could see them buckle. | |

That’s a pass we haven’t seen in a long while - such a shame he was off. Great through ball | |

Need to keep on upping the tempo as they tire.
Routs doing alright but may be time for Asoro and Dhanda for smith | | | |

You mean they left because they were not good enough, obviously. [Post edited 5 Sep 2020 16:32]

It's useless information, and if you want to advertise betting sites I hope you're getting paid for it. |
Useless to you, you mean.
Getting paid for it 😂

Another shot goes wide. Asoro. | |

Asoro shoots hard and low, but just wide. | | | |
| Newport County v Swansea City : Matchday Thread on 16:40 - Sep 5 with 962 views | KarlHRummenigge |
Lovely combination with Dhanda and Asoro
But we need our defensive and midfield lines to push up so Ayew is not having to come so deep | | | |

I’ve got to say the game is looking lost.
Preston away isn’t filling me with enthusiasm. | |

Betting sites are scum, that's my reason. Talking about odds as if they matter is advertising. Should be banned from football. | | | |

Indeed. Unless this is a cunning ploy to get unnecessary cup games out of the way until January. Don’t like losing though, especially to another Welsh team | |

Oh right ...
Lost your usual genial posting style, may I apologise on behalf of my fingers for their attempts to include everyone in today’s thread. It didn’t seem to be a problem when JH was doing it. Not that I intend to keep this up, so you may get your way.
Although I wouldn’t bet on it. [Post edited 5 Sep 2020 16:52]

It was a miracle that we got into the play offs last season with such a weak midfield. It looks like it could be a lot worse this year, especially without Brewster to get some goals for us. | | | |
| Newport County v Swansea City : Matchday Thread on 16:50 - Sep 5 with 816 views | KarlHRummenigge |
Dhanda should not be rolling his foot over the ball, and playIng it backwards in that position in the 88th minute | | | |
