    Of course hes not going to drop McBurnie. MOM performance , 2 goals hes not going to be replaced for an ageing vastly overpaid injury prone player whose wages im sure your desparate to get off the books.

    Play like you did Tuesday and its an easy 3 points. Theyve lost their 3 best players in the summer. Long hard season awaits the carrot boys.

    I don't think he's fit enough is he ? All I've read is that he will be back earlier than the anticipated October....

    Do we think there will be another hq stream like the Leeds game? Or are there too many other champ&prem games on at the same time today?

    Don't think we'll find a stream on a Saturday 3pm anymore whilst we're outside the PL.
    We only get streams if a match is televised somewhere in the world, and unfortunately the Championship is non existent outside the UK.
    We get the games midweek as Sky are streaming all of the Championship games this season. They're just not allowed to broadcast anything at 3pm on Saturday.
    I live in hope though that maybe someone will have found a way to put the club stream online, as you can pay to watch every match online if you're outside the UK.

    If Fer is fit probably the same team. watched Bony on the training video and he looked trim and not overly overweight. Obviously not match fit and a run out with the under 23's first might be a good idea. On the financial side , if you take into account a loan fee for another player and their wages, it may be just as viable to keep Bony rather than loan him out. If it was a permanent transfer , which won't be until January, that would be different.

    Bony having a run out was an advert for potential suitors just in case someone wants to pay his wage in a loan/buy overseas.
    I read no more into it, since we all know from past experiences, Wilf takes an eon to get match fit. No way can we afford him that luxury at +100k a week and where maintaing form in this league is critical.
    Looking at the way the Yanks work, I think only if he goes, do we get any additional backup striker for Oli. The tw@ts

    Swans: Erwin Mulder, Connor Roberts, Mike van der Hoorn (capt), Joe Rodon, Martin Olsson, Jay Fulton, Tom Carroll, Bersant Celina, Joel Asoro, Barrie McKay, Oli McBurnie.

    Subs: Steven Benda, Kyle Naughton, Matt Grimes, Daniel James, Jefferson Montero, Courtney Baker-Richardson.



    What's happened to Yan Dhanda? Why do we always do this, drop a player when showing such promise? Not even on the bench these last few games, bloody stupid if you ask me........<ok>

    The Championship is already taking effect

    No Fer who rushed back. Dhanda dropped to put an untested U23 striker to protect Oli, who is now feeling it.

    The frugality of the board is already biting after just 4 games with another 42 to go. The tw@ts will now likely panic loan a **** player or 2 rather than back the manager and buy/loan players that want to be here (Potters most important remit)

    Meanwhile, we pay over £170k a week to 3 players who arent on the bench (Bony, Dyer, Routs). Those 3 likely are on the same as the total starting line up ffs

    We're looking a bit drab the last 10 mins and are lucky not to be further behind
