| Swansea City v Derby County : Match day thread on 21:47 - Nov 25 by jacksfullaces | well that is the usual turnaround if they don't perform for sure, but we spent a fair bit, so don't see how he is going to have much to play with. in the mean time we can make the other assumption that all the players that don't play are the keys to our success ... standard wishful thinking but assume he will take a look. surely he has been brought in to make this lot gel ... or we go down ... and he is with us for a long term project? |
From where I am standing, we never brought the right players in, the players we needed. We seem to have wasted a large amount of money, and still not getting the players needed. It was obvious from game one, the pre season friendlies. 20 games in and we are no better. |  |

Why don’t we get refs’ decisions like that when we are trying to see a game out? Not that it would have made any difference but fairness id]s all we can ask. Thought the ref was pretty good other than that though to be fair. |  |

| Swansea City v Derby County : Match day thread on 21:41 - Nov 25 by builthjack | We are weak all over the park. All the nonsense about great recruitment in the summer, it’s bollocks. We are weaker than last year. The manager should be demanding he brings half a dozen of his choice of players in January. None of this data shit any more. |
exactly, 15 million plus ,on a group of players whe we lack full bacls a midfield general/driver, and decent wide/supply men. transfer window was bad, weve looked pretty bad all season, only a purple patch from vip has us from being in the bottom 3, new man deffo gas a job on his hands |  | |  |
| Swansea City v Derby County : Match day thread on 22:17 - Nov 25 with 1465 views | Dr_Winston | A fairly encouraging first 30-35 minutes where we played the game at a decent pace and probably deserved to be level at HT. Went to bits after the break, even more so after the subs. Stamenic offers us nothing that Fulton didn't already and based on tonight is worse at it. Benson was even worse. Franco struggled to get into the game and as a mate of mine pointed out, often does when he doesn't start. Easily Cabango's worst game for us too. Lots of work for Matos to do. Finding someone to take Cullen on loan should be fairly high up that list. |  |

of the 11 starting tonight 9 were here last season, Yes dissapointing result tonight and the performance tailed off but we started brigjtly just needed to convert some of the opportunities we created before they scored agaimat the run of play Derby rhen put 11 behimd the ball and we were struggling to break them down They were fouling from kick off breaking up play... Based on the opening 30 mins we saw a different approach The players confidence is rock bottom , they have list the crowd and they know it Lets see hiw things are in 6 games time when VM has had mire than half a day or so working with the players That said Benson is a waste of shirt,Ronald still cant deliver. Cant understand why we didnt see Widdell at some point tonight |  |

As ive already said, I dont know what people expected after one session. For matos to totally change us? If he and his team have got anything about themselves its glomg to take a few games to get his way across. Buckle in people, its going to take a while. |  | |  |

I’d really like to see Cullen do well but he was very poor this evening. |  | |  |

Well said How much time has Matos had with the squad? We looked a different side up until they scored. Patience is needed....something it seems many of our fans lack Yes there are weaknesses in some of the squad but Matos needs time to wirk on things. |  |

He's been a first team regular for five or six years and has looked the part for about six weeks of it. He's just not good enough. Never has been if we're being honest. |  |

Indeed but you’d have expected. A much greater effort from the players than they showed tonight. I don’t see many if any on here criticising Matos. That would be silly in the extreme. But we all know he has a hell of a lot to do to get us into the safety zone this season. |  |

One session ,I'm commenting on the past 6/7 games which culminated with what we saw tonight. The problem we now have is the normally reliable players have now dropped to the standards of say Key , Ronald , even Franco has become anonymous. |  |

This all day long. Sheehan and his staff are gone and clearly the group who are here do not rate the summer signings only Burgess and Galbraith started. Like Matos said we have players but not a team. Questions need to be asked about the recruitment team. Several of the signings are on long contracts, Matos has a massive job. |  | |  |

Who picked that team tonight,we can only hope it wasn’t Matos Cullen ,Fulton and Key would not get into any other championship teams starting 11 so why ours Sideways and back doesn’t win football games, we take so long farting about at the back all our forward players are marked out of the game …. 2-0 down 10 mins to go…. Sideways and back ,chances to put a free kick or cross in ..No … sideways and back Every Swansea fan in the ground could see it wasn’t getting us anywhere, Why can’t the people in the dugout see it The first Derby goal , our wide players didn’t even notice the Derby right back was in so much space to put the ball into the box , Key was near our 18 yard box , Ronald was in the centre circle , no one even looked until he got the ball took his own sweet time and played a cross in that they scored from This goal kick nonsense has to stop ,it’s like the chuckle brothers ..to me ,to you , only it’s not funny , the ball ends up being lumped upfield anyway ..well,eventually Derby weren’t that special but we gave them the game so cheaply without so much as a whimper Ronald can’t beat a man ,can’t cross the ball Benson comes on for him and he can’t beat a man or cross either,he played every ball bar 2 backwards,when he finally did cross a ball we scored, he’s a complete waste of a shirt, surely Parker would be a better option even for Key who continues to build his liability mantle I hope Matos can shake things up because it can’t get any worse than tonight’s showing , well hopefully it can’t |  | |  |

In fairness I thinl Joey and Leon had some influence on tonights starting line up Joey wouldnt have known this summers signings. Teams get moulded by coaches.....leta give Matos some time.... |  |

| Swansea City v Derby County : Match day thread on 21:39 - Nov 25 by Fireboy2 | What doesn't help is them continually fouling us, slowing us down, especially in the first half 18-8 yet the first yellow after 82 minutes, we play away, give a few fouls, then get yellows far earlier, things like this really wind me up. |
Eom was kicked upside down at least three times in that first 30 or so minutes by their fullback and not once did the ref speak to him, not fused on Eustace either smug sod. |  |

I thought Fulton was fine and better than Stamenic when he came on but Cullen was poor. |  | |  |
