Swansea were poor. Should have got more but lacking of much creativity. Very early days but Wright and Simms do not look anywhere near their price. On 95 minutes Godden was chasing down the ball, Simms wasn't!

You can see we’re badly missing some dynamism in midfield, a lot of the play second half very staggered and straightforward. Seems a bit worrying that we only consider alternative targets when the main one becomes unavailable.

Big few weeks coming up for recruitment

Awful game, a point each probably fair, but zero creativity or skill from either side.
No one stood out, 6/10 all round as an away point is rarely a bad result.

Fuck all else to say.
Move onto next week.

We don’t seem to have any “invention” in the middle. We need a couple of midfielders in this week at least.

I'd be very frustrated if I'd spent £100 travelling down there today. Same as last season. Sitting back and taking the point at Swansea when they are there for the taking.

Why hasn’t a hamer replacement already been signed?

We need 2 CM, possibly another no. 10 (loan), another CB and possibly a RWB depending on MvE injury.

Relax. They'll have been working on players. Deals don't happen overnight, it's only been a week.

Bossed posession

Dominated them for large periods, just lacked a clear cut chance for a goal. Signs are looking good for this side, still need a Hamer replacement and a couple more, and I think we'll be safely in the play offs.

Just seen the goals. Think wright trying to turn on the ball rather than assist. Nice finish from godden

Poor goal to concede. Not as bad as oggy made out on radio though

The mugs who paid for the ticket just for the points will be pleased. Still mugs.

I think the fact the Swansea fans made zero atmosphere contributed to the feeling of it being a flat game.

We need these 4 signings in. Energy in CM for sure. And extra options to bring on but it will happen.

Sakamoto looks very good. If we continue to pick up points while we gel then we are in a good position to kick on when everything clicks.

Did we boss possession?

Fair result, imho. Could've used a bit of needle and a few tasty tackles to liven it up a bit, perhaps, but I don't think we've got that sort of player in the squad at the moment. No concerns for me - we still look a tidy, well-organised, team and I think there's plenty more to come from this lot yet.

For a new team we looked solid enough passed the ball well, as usual just the final ball a pity we switched off after our goal but Wright didn't seem switched on at times hopefully they will coach him to be more aware Sheaf was very good

It's beginning to confirm that some of our buys have been a bit rushed. Dasilva has a mistake in him every game. I'll give Simms more time given his lack of starts in the 2nd half of last season. Saka easily knocked off the ball but more importantly Eccles Cake cannot cover for Gus. I'm surprised that we haven't brought anyone in this week if we had someone lined up
