Swansea City Data Dashboard 2026-27

I am continuing with my Goal Involvements tracking for this season, and I have also added a couple of extra bits and pieces: a pie chart to show where the goals are coming from, and table projections. The projections use 20-year averages for 2nd place and 8th place - the thresholds for automatic promotion and playoffs qualification.

See the whole thing HERE. It probably works better on laptop/desktop than phone.

Is it just me, or...

...is this an unbelievable team this season?

Strength everywhere, depth everywhere, all of last season's issues fixed, all the new players 100% aligned with Matosball and no straight loans (even Parente has an option to buy).

Swansea have played this transfer window like a Football Manager™ vet on easy mode.

Stat-based Super League & NRL game

Hi all,

I've developed a stat-based game featuring all Super League and NRL clubs. Pretty simple to pick up. You get given a stat for a player - appearances, tries, points etc - and another player gets shown, with the stat hidden. Just guess if that's higher or lower.

You've probably all seen Play Your Cards Right so you'll be familiar with it.

I've got over 800 football clubs on there too, but as a Wakefield season ticket holder I had to build RL into it as well.

Looking for people to test and provide feedback, all appreciated! - https://playyourclubright.com/?jump=rugby#picker

Cheers

DEPTH CHART

I couldn't find a decent depth chart tool so I made this one myself. You can use it too if you like.

Mid is very competitive. I expect all four 8s to be seen as equal in terms of importance, rotated for tactical and/or fitness reasons. Just is clearly a starter, but for my money so is Widell and Franco. It'll be interesting to see how Matos uses everyone.

Wing is interesting because Opoku is legitimately a left wing. I put him right here because that's where he was vs Leganes and the balance is pretty bad otherwise. I expect a lot of switching on the flanks in the early games.

Some players appear twice because I see them getting minutes at each position.

Moussa Yeo is a Swan

Moussa Yeo is officially a Swan according to FotMob for ~£3.4M.

His stats say he's a good creator and excellent defensively so he fits the profile for Matos's counter-press.

One thing I don't understand is he's actually a LW, not a RW. That gives Swans three inverted wingers on the left - Eom, Inoussa and Yeo (by inverted I mean they all are right-footers that want to cut inside).

So the RW is still light for now. Maybe Congreve is the answer?
