Two season is thee absolute end of the road for this particular brand of football. I d not believe the players have to be superstars to pass accurately and retain possession. The system itself should evolve if it is any good. After 24 month I expect to see team easy on the eye and comfortable doing its game plan. I do not expect to see narrow escapes that Fisher did on Saturday. Suicide is not part of the plan. Te plan if it is a good plan will resut in better result and more points Swansea need to finish 8th or above in my personal assessment of progress. Martin can complain about lack of transfers a but all his rivals apart from one or two are in the same boat. Millwall are outperforming Swansea on less income and a weaker academy. . |  |

Which suggests after 3 years of rubbish it will then go to “judge him after 4 seasons”… and then “he needs 10 windows”. I’m looking forward to the day a new manager comes in, gets the side playing at the top end of the league (which they will) and people saying it’s down to Russell. |  |

And we all know it will happen. It’s guaranteed. I bookmarked this thread in preparation. In reality however, the new manager will reduce the pointless possession, go more direct and get the results Russell should have been getting consistently 18 months ago. |  |

There will be an element of truth to that. The foundations are there for a good manager to tighten us up, reduce the sloppy defending and make us capable of faster, more incisive attacking moves. He doesn’t seem to have the ability to get there, but his successor will inherit a team he doesn’t have to completely deconstruct to make competitive. |  | |  |

The question is though, has it really happened at all. League position suggests it may not have. Two things from the article which by the way is a very informative piece. Firstly, it says that one if the keys to success with his style is understanding between players. This is not going to happen if we are forever bringing in season long loans. If they don’t form an understanding immediately then by the time they do they move in. Secondly, it says Swansea are the best football side in the league. Well that needs defining because in my mind it’s a toss up between Burnley and Sheffield Utd. |  |

We float the ball around in in own box mostly whereupon the opposition simply wait for a mistake and capitalise We go behind and become more direct and often enough get back into the game to level up. Then , we continue to pass the ball sideways even into injury time and end up with a point which is considered a good performance by the coach who blames the players not the tactics drawn up by himself. We gift goals. Few goals are scored against us that are spectacular or the result of exceptional play. Any team that is organised and patient can beat us |  |

Stating the obvious, we need to be tighten up defensively, both keepers are vulnerable to a back pass, so why do we do it? a little tweak here and there and we can push on. |  | |  |

9 teams have managed it in 28 league games this season. 2 of them have been Burnley. Yes, we’ve dropped too many points late in games and/or as a result of shambolic defending, but your ultra negativity makes it feel like we’re getting thrashed every week and are15 points adrift of safety. I don’t think Martin is the man to take us up either, but let’s have a bit of balance. |  | |  |

There won’t be any truth to that. Which is why he can’t get a tune out of any team he’s managed. The new manager will come in, change the style and do things properly and we will improve because we are far better than we are showing under him. |  |

‘Only’ 11 have managed to beat Rotherham and they are 20th and awful. |  |

If we go back to playing like we did under Cooper and win consistently, you’ll be absolutely right. If we’ve got the likes of Ben Cabango bringing the ball through midfield, every player is comfortable receiving the ball in tight situations and we’re passing our way out of danger without the stupid mistakes that happen far less frequently but still too often, you won’t be. |  | |  |

It was a response to ‘any team that is organised and patient can beat us’. Quite patently wrong as around 70% have failed to do so. |  | |  |

I certainly will be right either way. These are international pedigree players (Cabango, Manning, Ntcham, Allen) other players have played Premier League football and others have been at clubs that have drilled that into them since day 1 of their footballing lives. We have players that have played for Liverpool, Spurs and PSV. I love the fact you believe Russell Martin taught them how to pass. |  |

But of course he’s right. He didn’t say they will beat us, he said any team that is organised and patient “can” beat us. Just as any team in this league “can” beat 20th place Rotherham. The fact 60% haven’t doesn’t make that incorrect. |  |
