4. Strength Up Front
The signing of Wilfried Bony has given Swansea that added strength up front. Danny Graham, during his time at Swansea, was always good enough at holding the ball up and waiting for a play to develop but he lacked the physical stature of the Ivorian. The Swans can implement Bony's strength to devastating effect with their record signing being able to fend off opposition defenders and feed in Michu where he is most devastating - a technique Michael Laudrup simply describes as "arriving". Despite operating as an out and out striker after Graham's departure last season, Michu has always insisted his preferred position is operating off the shoulder of the striker. With Bony leading the line and knocking down balls for the Spaniard, could Michu flourish even further than last season?
