Matt Gill | We took a good step in performance and intensity
Assistant head coach Matt Gill felt Swansea City had taken a good step forward in performance and intensity in their penultimate pre-season friendly against Bristol Rovers.
Joe Allen and Swansea City will not take any risks with the midfielder’s fitness, but the Wales international has his sights set on being involved in the opening fixture of the season at Rotherham should his recovery from a hamstring injury remain on its current track.
Russell Martin believes playing in front of fans for the first time in pre-season marked a good staging post in Swansea City’s preparations for the new season, and praised his medical and sports science staff for the excellent physical shape his squad is in as the 2022-23 campaign nears.
Head coach Russell Martin says there is plenty of work to do for his Swansea City side before the start of the Championship season, but was pleased with much of what he saw in their friendly draw at Plymouth.
