Swansea City : Matos explains the Jeremy Monga situation 11th Sep 2026 08:00
Jeremy Monga’s absence from the Swansea City side has inevitably raised a few eyebrows, but Vítor Matos has offered some insight into his thinking as the highly-rated seventeen year-old waits for his opportunity. And yes his International clearance did take a good few days. 1

Not sure if I missed something but I still not 100% clear whether (a) international clearance still isn't confirmed or (b) Matos is cleared and was available for selection. on Tuesday,. The article seems to hint at the latter.

Clearance done, not selected for Southampton.

I certainly missed the bit about Matos being available for selection though where he’d fit into the side is a huge question😂

I honestly reckon the whole deal with Monga is more about paperwork than wondering whether he has the necessary standard, because he clearly already has that—he played 921 minutes in the Championship last season. Now, I can understand Matos and his favorites, but how long has it been since we had a winger who actually wins a 1v1? None of the wingers we currently have possess that quality; in fact, statistically, Inoussa was the one who had the most successful dribbles last campaign. No matter how collectively you play the Swansea Way, if we create nothing from the wide areas, it’s completely useless. We’ve forgotten the Dyers, the Sinclairs, the Pablo Hernándezes, the Waynes... I think the last decent winger we had who made a real difference was Daniel James

Unfortunately the Swans have absolutely nobody of the quality of those wingers you mentioned.

No mention of Jefferson Montero?

Thanks for bringing up Montero—when Swansea City signed him I was thrilled because I used to watch him play regularly for Monarcas over in Mexico. But honestly, the quality of wingers we used to have was always a cut above the current lot. Take Barrow, for instance, or Emnes who even played in that position, Narsingh, and I could even say McKay did a better job. Even Paterson used to drift out wide. Ever since the 22/23 season, we’ve completely forgotten what it's like to have proper 1v1 wingers of real quality

Monga is a cut above any winger we currently have in the squad. Is Matos afraid that he is completely unpredictable in his style of play. If we are not careful, Man City will recall him and loan him out to a team that values someone of his undoubted ability. After all, Sheff Utd, Wrexham and Southampton, three very poor performances, where we certainly lacked any real cutting edge and having someone able to break the opposition lines and open up the game.
