Swansea City in automatic promotion form ! 14th Apr 2022 08:00
Over the past ten games Swansea City have enjoyed play off form, and over the last six it’s automatic promotion for the swans along with Nottingham Forest. We have all seen the games which have made this current run of form so inspiring, not only to the fans but clearly the whole thing is rubbing off on the players as well. 0

Finally Martin had learnt the lessons from earlier on in the season.
Faster passing, passing forward and quick balls to use the pace up front as well as playing our defenders in their correct positions.

The players have now gelled and are understanding the system.its taken some of them a lot longer than it should, but they have got there. It's a simple system really, but if players have never played it, which is crazy really, then they find it hard to get into. An example is an old fashioned centre half Bennett, who will find it almost impossible to ay this way week in and week out.
Kids should be taught the passing game from 4 years old upwards. But parents prefer their team to win 10-0 by banging up to the best player in the team and him scoring.
It's why there are so many foreigners in the English game.

Indeed, imagine if we had played this system months ago like we were calling for, we could be like Forest are now.

Such a good set of players at our disposal.

You realise that Piroe is playing in midfield and Naughton a full back by trade is playing at centre half Felix?

Why does this keep getting said? Has anyone said this out of interest? I have tried to find a reference for the source of the comments but no luck.

If Martin was using this forum to change his mind he would have changed it after week 3, all the changes he has made now are what was said since then.

I can only imagine the change has come from stark proof and realisation, it's hardly under the hood rocket science. It's in front of all of our eyes and has been all season.

It is not just doen to that...the style has been tweaked ....As I keep repeating our approach at kick off is different .
We use balls into the channels more....playing together will help gel but for 2 out of the last 3 games where we have been on this run we have a different midfield engine house with Fulton starting over Downes...he has hardly featured yet at Millwall and against Derby we looked good.

Knocking the ball about in short passes is easy I have said befoew I can remember one game where Grimes and Naughton played about 4 passes just back and fore when they were standing 3 yards at mosr apart with no intent of pushing the ball forward or wither player making a move.

I know there is polarisation on here but the "blind belief" that what we are now seeing is just down to everything coming together shows how some fans fail to really undersatnd what is happeneing on the pitch.

For me we have got a winning formula which is also at times attractive to watch ....it went a bit flat on saturday ....when there was a period of pass for pass sake though that did bring chants of "ole"

Lets hope RM sticks with what is working....and lets all unite and get behind the side.

It is frustrating that having introduced this tweak earlier in the season then reverting possibly has cost us .....we have some acid tests comin up lets hope we cnaget a result at Forest and v Bournemouth that will show how far we have come.

Those games for this line up will definitely provide some account of where the club is at.

Yes only Forest in better form.
Equal form to Fulham.
4 wins, 1draw, 1 defeat.
Clearly the players are playing to Martin's blueprint.
Or maybe Martin has been reading this forum and taking advice of here ?

or maybe Curt has had a word in his shell like.

Maybe he has adopted his own iterative learning philosphy and looked at what has got hime the most success this season especially after the Birmngham fiasco.

whateever we seem to have hit a winning and atractive formula....if folk still want to believe Martin hasnt twaeaked things then fair enough ...there is evidence to show he has but then its all about opnions...many stated Cooper ewas a fraud and crap manager would do nothing without Ayew etc where is he now?

sjows how much those knew yes?

Curtis is my favourite ever player and the greatest Swans Club man ever.
However no way would Martin listen to him.
The form lately has been great.
If it continues who knows it will lead ?

We're in automatics form having played 23rd, 9th, 17th, 18th, 24th and 16th. A very favourable run of fixtures especially given 21st and 22nd come next. That's 7 of the bottom 9 played in 8 games.

If we aim to be playoff contenders next season then winning the majority of these types of games will be essential.

Still don’t know why this is being said. Feels like one of those things someone has said and people who are annoyed that some have been proven right just repeat it.

It’s quite amazing how many feel they cannot have an accurate view on the game despite watching it and in most parts it being a large part of people’s lives for decades.

Wyndham was a former pro, I would certainly listen to a few non pros when it comes to football and tactics over him.

If Russell Martin (who is a rookie manager lets not forget) got some things wrong, is that really such a bitter pill to swallow for some? Just say “fair play this forum has some insightful posters” and move on.

The amount that have gone into meltdown since those at the start have been proved accurate is on a scale I’ve never seen before.

The one that says we should start teaching kids to pass the ball when the vast majority of academy teams in the UK have been doing that for years? And suggests that the reason there are "so many foreigners" in English football is that we're all busy playing hoofball? I downvoted it because it's insulting nonsense.

Whilst he is wrong that it's the reason why there are so many foreigners in british football he is right about kids not being able to play a passing game, id say that most if not all of our players have come through academies so why has it taken so long for most of them to get RMs passing game.

Look at grimes, he's one of our best players and he can't pass with his right foot, how good would he be if he could pass with both feet.
