Swansea City’s manager, Alan Sheehan, recently revealed how a candid chat led to a big selection decision. Goncalo Franco, the midfielder who was missing from the starting line-up in last weekend’s draw against Millwall, has shown a remarkable bounce-back. Despite a rocky patch in form, Franco’s return against Blackburn Rovers was marked with an impressive volley that caught everyone’s attention!
Sheehan praised Franco’s attitude, sharing how their open discussion prompted the midfielder to acknowledge and address his performance dip. “He was excellent,” Sheehan commented, noting Franco’s sportsmanship and support for his teammates. It’s this team spirit that Sheehan values, emphasising the importance of squad depth and adaptability.
The focus isn’t just on starting line-ups; it’s about the game-changers off the bench. Franco’s commitment to improving and understanding team dynamics makes him one to watch. With Leicester City looming this Saturday, fans are eager to see how Franco’s story unfolds. Will he step up again at the Swansea.com Stadium? Stay tuned!
