Alan Sheehan says Swansea City have every right to believe again, as their Premier League scalp of Nottingham Forest showed their promise is more than just stars in the boardroom.<\/b><\/p>\n
Swansea’s introduction of Croatia great Luka Modric and rap star Snoop Dogg into their ownership structure has seen the Championship club back in the spotlight.<\/p>\n
And their summer spending \u2013 their most expensive outlay since relegation from the Premier League in 2018 \u2013 has seen hope of a return to the top-flight flicker back into life.<\/p>\n
It smouldered further even amid the south Wales rain as they humbled Ange Postecoglou and knocked Forest out of the EFL Cup<\/a> to reach the last-16 for the first time since they themselves were a top-level club.<\/p>\n So asked whether he was prepared to deal with new expectation levels for a club that have failed to even threaten the Championship play-offs for the past four seasons, Sheehan said: “I’m not one to put water on the fire \u2013 I’m probably more a guy who puts petrol on it.<\/p>\n “I’m not going to dampen what people want to believe because I won’t shy away from it. We want to improve on last year.<\/p>\n “We’re building something, I do believe that.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
