Tough start for Vítor Matos as Swansea City’s new head coach! His debut didn’t quite go as planned, with a 2-1 defeat at home to Derby County. The Swans saw goals from Joe Ward and Lars-Jorgen Salvesen put them behind, though Ethan Galbraith managed to pull one back in the final moments.
The team is now just four points above the relegation zone, and Matos knows there’s a lot of work ahead. He sees potential despite the loss, stating, “We had some good moments to build on.”
Improving the attack, energising the play, and creating more chances are top of his agenda. Matos emphasises the importance of treating the upcoming clash at West Bromwich Albion as a ‘final’.
“We’re not where we want to be in the table, but we’re committed to turning this around,” he says. Acknowledging the fans’ frustrations, he promises, “We’ll do our best to improve.”
With a focus on training hard and creating consistency, the Swans aim to bounce back. Matos is confident that with a bit more movement and quicker ball play, better results are just around the corner.
