3 tweaks Swansea City should make ahead of Bristol City game

Swansea City fell to another defeat against Stoke in midweek, which meant that they have now won only one of their last five fixtures in all competitions.

The Swans pulled off a superb victory over Blackburn recently but that was sandwiched inbetween the defeat to the Potters and a 1-0 loss to Luton.

Russell Martin has made his team perform admirably at times this campaign but it hasn’t equated to results enough to push them up the table. They’re currently sat near the bottom of the division and face a Bristol City side at the weekend that are just below them in the table.

The Welsh outfit then may need to make some changes ahead of this clash – and here are three that the boss should make in order to secure the win.

1. Create more chances for the lone striker

Against Stoke, Swansea failed to produce much in attack for their forward options and it left Michael Obafemi feeling very isolated in that game.

The 21-year-old actually managed just 21 touches all game – which is the least of any outfield player to feature for the full 90 minutes. In fact, the player didn’t even register a shot and if your striker isn’t having shots, then you’re certainly going to struggle to score.

It’s easier said then done then but the Swans need to give the ball to their striker more and feed him with more chances. If you don’t shoot, then you won’t score and Obafemi wasn’t even shooting.

At least if he had the ball more, he could potentially hold it up and bring some of the other wide players or attacking players into the equation. Instead though, he was able to offer little upfront and it led to a disappointing result for Swansea.

2. Bring Joel Piroe back into the starting eleven

While Michael Obafemi isn’t to blame much for the Stoke
