    Well I would like to think that we have already sounded out players and know who wants to come, but then again this is the swans so will probably wait till last minute and pay over the top for panic buys.

    Players not getting a chance on a good team elsewhere . It's how we've made our " Living in the past ".
    Scouts with not only a good eye for players , but a good eye for their situations is a mid table teams way forward .

    The only problem is that in the past we knew what system we were playing. We bought players to suit that system. Now we've got to buy any player willing to come here and at a premium price.

    Really we need to strengthen our defence first and foremost then target a few creative players out wide. Then if theres some money left we need to get a solid CDM. The system under Bob is similar to the Swansea way but with a weakened defence. One solid CB, right back and a creative winger is the minimum IMO

    But will good players come to you and accept the (inevitable?) clause that reduces wages if you are relegated? They would have to be extremely confident that they can work the oracle or they will be simply accepting a delayed wage reduction.

    It's an irrelevant question because these Yank knobs won't spend any money anyway.
