Swansea City v Huddersfield : Matchday Thread 2022/23 19:43 - Apr 10 with 11359 viewsNotLoyal

Let everyone who comes before you floor you.

It’s the Matchday Winker with Colin as Huddersfield, a much revived Terrier of northern descent visit the Swansea.Com. Do Swansea need to win ? No. Does Colin need to win ? You can bet your Sheffield gum shield he does.













Russell Martin & Neil Warnock both cautious pending tomorrows big game 14th Apr 2023 14:17
Neil Warnock paid numerous compliments to Swansea City and Russell Martin amidst a tremendous run of results since his appointment at the Terriers. Warnock admits his side aren’t good enough to play in the way the Swans do and admits he has to keep a close eye on his players going in to this game. 0




Swansea City looking to extend their unbeaten run with Warnock in town 15th Apr 2023 08:03
Swansea City have had a decent run of results of late and with two home games coming up in the next five days they find themselves in a position of proving a few points. With five games to go this season head coach Russell Martin will want to persuade Swans fans they now have a team that reflects his own on the pitch ambitions. 0




Everything Russell Martin said after defeating Huddersfield Town 15th Apr 2023 19:01
It was another win for the Swans against a difficult opponent in Huddersfield Town at the Swansea.Com Stadium this afternoon. Despite numerous chances and hitting the woodwork the home side had to rely on a Ryan Manning deflected shot to take the three points. 0




Dominant Swansea City with aggression, flair and a will to win ! 16th Apr 2023 12:27
Swansea City dominated yesterdays game at the Swansea.Com Stadium in a 1-0 win that could have and should have been a lot more. The chances created were not as many as in recent games but Nathan Wood forged himself a golden opportunity in the first half and Ben Cabango hit the post. Two defenders getting forwards aggressively and causing the opposition huge problems. 0

This should be a cracker.
The feisty ,obnoxious ,confrontation and very astute Warnock back to face us.
Suffice to say he will prepare his side according to how we play so I hope Fishy continues his renaissance because rest assured ,Warnock will have him targeted .
I have a soft spot for the Terriers having good chums over there .
I think they will escape .

Interesting to see that Huddersfield reverted to the long ball hoof. They took a 2 nil lead with only two shots on target and only had 19% possession.

Hope out defenders are getting in heading practice this week.

The last couple of matches we really seem to getting somewhere. We go through the "process" for 18 months then replace him when it starts to work. Seems strange to me.

I’m still not convinced he’s the right man for the job. No plan B and we rely on the opponents’ style of play to allow us to play ours. If they don’t ‘play ball’ neither do we!

Before anyone asks, I’ve no idea who should replace him.

I'm just pointing out if you go through a "process" for 18 months then it starts to improve, is that the time to change. Whether he is the right man is another debate.

Fair point. The players have to suit the process and i don’t know how good they are. Clearly our defensive unit is a bit of a shambles ordinarily though recently keeping the goals against down.

I think Martin is too ideological and rigid with it. He needs to be more adaptive and flexible and tweak according to the opponent. It seems to me he sends them out with the same message such as play with bravery from the back. We’ll never be good enough to do that without giving other teams opportunities.

I’d rather a more pragmatic manager who will take the team forward by using the skills they’ve developed through the process and add other things to give us some steel.

I thought the change of personnel on Monday most certainly displayed Martin’s awareness regards Wigan. Four changes and for all his nonsense Paterson was exceptional for half an hour.

I would rather wait and see if the recent upturn is permanent or just a positive blip. I do take your point though.

We had a little purple patch last season after the win at CCFC last April....but it wasnt sustained or continued to the start of this season.

This is the next hurdle for Martin.

Maintaining the recent better form.

As you say he has had a few moments but not anything significant. The way things go for him is usually the Swans start to draw games they should win, we have two games at home coming up. And historically then we see the defensive errors creeping back in and the implosion starts. If he can manage the side over the last five games not to do that ( three at home, PNE, Huddersfield and WBA ) two away at Hull and Norwich then maybe people will have more confidence going in to next season.

However, this will be two seasons completed come May and it’s all been very mid table with a few growth spurts. Players have improved, the defence seems a bit better and there’s definitely some promising work being done in midfield. That’s the positive.

The negative is the keeper still. He has mishandled a few crucial goals of late, Cardiff and Millwall ( that was crucial and deprived us of a point at least ) again at Luton when his mistake also cost a point. I also thought he had a poor game against Boro at home, lost 1-3 and Rotherham 1-1, I’m unsure what he was thinking in that game. ( Ogbene goal ) We can go back to the 1-3 home loss to Stoke as well.

However, if we look at the last four he has kept three clean sheets and some of that is due to his confidence increasing ( Coventry at home ) and the defence improving. I hope I’m wrong but I see him impacting on one the remaining games as well. Fisher is as crucial to Martin’s continued end of season success than any improvement elsewhere on the pitch because if he messes up it makes all that hard work pointless.

Overall we are not used to a keeper who makes daft mistakes as Swans fans. We’ve had some cracking keepers, Vorm was good, as was Fabianski. And we have a history of class stoppers. Just goes to show how important Fisher is to Martin’s future as I still believe there’s a possibility if it all goes south again he could move on ( Martin )

Edit - did I mention the home defeat against Birmingham City 😂

Martin has used rotation to rest players on midweek games, tailored teams for away games or home games, swapped players all over the park on substitutions.
Maybe he is learning now there is a difference to having a settled team and tweaking the team rather than wholesale changes that disrupt the team.
We shall see.
