| January Transfer Rumours on 10:07 - Dec 3 by onehunglow | It might be down to how he trains Apparently He’s worth a go surely We need change We need energy He was brought in to give us this |
Or it could be a lack of self discipline as shown when he was sent off. |  | |  |

He’s got very little positional discipline and he plays with his head down, which means he often isn’t aware of where teammates and opponents are. Consequently, he loses the ball cheaply, sometimes deep in our half. But he’s also got incredible desire and intensity. He’s quick, he’s aggressive and conversely to the point above, he’s very likely to win the ball in dangerous areas. He wins 30/70s, let alone 50/50s. He’s literally just raw, but he has huge potential. Matos’ ideology will be perfect for him as long as he has the discipline to ‘hunt with the pack’. |  | |  |

If we were higher in the table then ok but I’m not sure ‘raw with potential’ is exactly what we need at this point in time. |  |

We’re desperately lacking spark and intensity. I’m not sure I’d be starting him, but I’d certainly be using him a lot from the bench. When most opponents bring subs on, they impact the game. Ours don’t usually make much difference. He’s the type that would. |  | |  |

Good reply Frankly, he’s no different to most then Our right back has zero positional discipline yet he’s perma picked no shatter what He loses the ball almost every time unless he passes it back He can’t be any worse than what we have Same applies to Wales Raw? I’d have that if it means our current team is cooked |  |

Then why bring him on Like Benson , a waste of a loan Crass decisions have cost us |  |

Despite me often criticising Whittaker and Obafemi, the ex player I dislike the most is Conor Hourihane, because he had a lot of ability, but played like he couldn’t care less. I may be wrong, but Benson gives me similar vibes. |  | |  |

Agreed but players like Yalcouye or even Ronald, Eom and Innoussa can all to differing standards add some spark but they need to be played the ball to run onto at speed. Our game has to fundamentally change do that players like these receivers the ball in as much space as possible snd importantly, in the move not static. Matis has to get us more fluid before these players will have the impact they are capable of. |  |

The difference between Yalcouye and those three is he can win possession in the opponents half and go at them quickly while their defence isn’t set. He’s not that great on the ball, but he’s fantastic at disrupting and winning it. He has his faults, but he’s much less reliant on being played in than our wingers. |  | |  |
| January Transfer Rumours on 21:40 - Dec 3 with 3140 views | GVJack | I think Yalcoure could thrive under Matos tactics of high energy/high press. He won't stop running and has more quality than Cullen who has a similar desire to challenge and win the ball back. Agree with a previous poster that our right side looks weak and should be the main focus in January along with another experienced CB to put more pressure on Cabango and Burgess. |  | |  |

Teams target our right side Obviously We’ve denied this It looks like Matos has seen this after barely more than a week This is what objectivity brings and frankly I’m Rather enthused as to what Vitor might do He might not, we don’t know But , yesterday saw emotion we haven’t seen in months and sport is all about this But Matos , at this moment, seems very articulate Hoping |  |

I think we just need to get back to basics, let the CB’s do the basic stuff clearing the ball ,dealing with high balls and let the midfielders play the ball on the floor, that’s what teams do to us effectively,yesterday we were much better not arsing about at the back and getting it forward quicker |  | |  |

No you keep doing it, no issues at all with anyone posting anything. It supports the charity. Crack on. These outlets reported utter trash in the summer and through hard work we managed to topple nearly every one of them. Ask Twitter 🚔 Knock Knock 😂 |  |

Good on ya We need passion in posts and you have it It is ridiculous really that the only source of real news from the club is on Indy I’d suggest most swans fans look at this site for info even if they don’t post BBC wales is laughable and WOL simply plagiarists, they are also so regarding rugby |  |

| January Transfer Rumours on 17:49 - Dec 23 with 619 views | Whiterockin | 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 |  | |  |
