Looks like we have some work to do having lost Galbraith and needing cover for Franco and Eom at the start of the season. |  |

Two midfielders required, hope they are looking away from Liverpool and not relying on Nyoni coming. It’s amazing that our dissenters on X are now all talking about it. 😂 |  |

Maybe it's time for one or two of the younger players who were on loan last season to step up. Great opportunity! | | | |

Yes, one of our strengths at the end of last season was having enough to swap out midfield if we wanted to.
Replace Galbraith and a decent loan? | |

I think Widdell has that ability and I think he is just one out of a few of our signings last year who will really shine this season | | | |

I agree he's pretty effective at breaking up play and has lots of energy, it's about where we play him. | |

I've said it a number of times but hopefully Inoussa will be like a new signing. | | | |

Would Joe Bell be a good signing as a replacement for Galbraith and the injured (?) Franco, given their partnership for NZ? | | | |

People commenting, not on here you are far too savvy that Swansea wouldn’t have sent Franco to a local hospital. Jeez, wake up, is it me or is intelligence and understanding being removed at source these days.
Every Swans player with extremely concerning injuries, especially legs goes there, they have the top qualified surgeon in Wales. | |

It seems the thicker they are the more they speak, the saying empty vessels certainly rings true. |  | | |

As expected he doesn’t endorse or credit the initial source of the news.
We have contacted two Welsh journalists now as a result, no credit depletes click and donations / awareness of the brain tumour charity. I’m sure they will correct it.

Torn ligaments usually heal by themselves over 5 to 12 weeks depending on the extent of the damage.
If hes had an op that would indicate the worst possible scenario , complete rupture. | | | |

| Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back. |

I think we had best dismiss Franco from our thoughts for several months
It’s an awfully tender region
We need fresh blood | |

Currently the midfielders we have including wide players are Stamenic, Fulton, Widell, Walta, Ronald, Eom, Cullen, Cooper, Inoussa, Yeo, Congreve, Cotterell, Lloyd and Bianchini, I may have forgotten someone. Really there needs to be some offloading there before we even consider spending money on an injury replacement. | | | |
