Matos, meanwhile, says that as things stand, loan signings Ishe Samuels-Smith, Kaelan Casey, Malick Yalcouye and Manuel Benson will all remain at Swansea beyond the January transfer window.
Galbraith 'really happy' at Swansea, says Matos - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/fo |
Though Galbraith really happy could be a way of saying we want a few extra million for him! | | | |

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I wouldn't be all that bothered if we didn't sign anyone in January.
Most will point at RB, but we've got enough strength in depth in midfield to allow Galbraith to continue there for the moment. If the Wrexham game is any indication, he might actually have more time and space to operate in there anyway.
Maybe I'd go along with terminating Benson's loan and using it for someone else, because of all the players we brought in in the Summer he's the only one who hasn't really shown anything.
Otherwise I suspect there's more benefit in allowing Matos to work with what we've got for a while rather than instigating more upheaval. We've chopped and changed far too much in recent seasons. |  |

I think he will go for the right deal for him and us but the summer would be better for both. I don't think he is a top 10 Premier League player and most of the rest could be battling relegation. Fresh start next season plus possible world cup exposure in the summer, a wait would be better for both parties. |  | | |

I agree about benson but we should be going out and paying decent money for a RB,
If we had a decent rb we could trust we would have beaten stoke and beaten wrecsam more convincingly as galbraith is far better in the middle of the field, he is that influencial. |  | | |

I agree with this. Even if we just sent Benson home and brought a quality loanee in at RB.
Not only does it free up our best player to play in a more influential position, it lessens the workload for those around him, particularly Franco and Stamenic. Gives Matos more flexibility - he could play those three for tougher teams away, or rotate the more defensive minded pair and play either of them alongside Galbraith and Widdell for the majority of games.
We’ve got quite a versatile midfield when Galbraith is back in it IMO.
I agree with the general gist though. We don’t need major surgery. It’s a decent squad. | | | |

I'm not giving up on Key yet.
He's been here for two and a half years and for most of the that time has been a capable RB. I don't know what demons are plaguing him at the moment, but I've no interest in joining the pile on. Happy to give him time out of the firing line for now rather than rushing out to replace him. | |

Nor am I but we still need cover for rb, galbraith, even though still gets forward, is wasted there, atm he is better controlling from the middle of the pitch. | | | |

We need a RB as soon as. Galbraith as good as he is at RB is even better in midfield. I’m not expecting any business in January…but if there is one position that needs filling then it’s RB | | | |

We'd "like" a new RB. We don't "need" a new RB. There's a difference. | |

Key is a wing back , suited to playing 3 at the back , he’s not a right back and that’s what we desperately need | | | |

Why not send Benson back, get a new rb online, give Nzingo a chance at the first team. | | | |

Well sending Benson back would hit a snag he is with Angola at afcon.
He could re discover his form there and do a job for us.
So hang a banger there. | |

Also wouldn’t Cam Congreve be a better shout? He has been playing well in a way better league ? | |

The question is would Burnley want him back so therefore why would they want him when a club is already paying his wages and the player won’t ever feature for Burnley in the premier league.
Thats the key. | |

A good afcon could also change the landscape for the lad.
He might actually get interest from elsewhere .
It is a mystery why it hasn’t worked out here for him .
We were all sweating over the deal with that paper work saga .
But underwhelming is an understatement . | |

Why did we sign him in the first place? It was a well and accepted fact in football he had been identified as a 'one trick pony' which once recognised and dealt with made him nigh on useless. seems the rest of the football family knew apart from our amazing steering committee. | | | |

His one trick does actually work fairly often. What gets me with him, is his lack of effort.
Happy to run at players, but loses the ball and just shrugs his shoulders and jogs back to his position. Doesn’t protect his fullback or get involved physically, just waits to be given the ball again.
Just stinks of a loan player who doesn’t want to be here. | | | |

I'm sure our recruitment team have plans in motion to cover every possible departure. I doubt if a short term loan is on the cards. | | | |

| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

You could ask the question why we signed him while Parker had shown good promise when he had previously play in the championship on the wing with us and had creditable displays in the League Cup, unless we were looking at Benson as a loan to buy. Rather try and develop our own young players. | | | |

Unfortunately, that’s a series of managers who haven’t fancied Parker now. I agree, he impressed me in the limited chances he’s had.
We’ve got to bring someone in at RB now. I’m sure Matos would prefer Galbraith in the middle. If we’re not trusting Parker, a loan makes sense to me, as Key isn’t a bad fullback, he’s just been some way short of his usual standards this season. | | | |
