Can Swansea City win a place amongst the country’s elite?

IT WAS in 2004 that Chelsea manager and self-proclaimed ‘Special one’, Jose Mourinho, appointed Brendan Rodgers as youth team coach for the West London side. Fast forward six years and the Northern Irishman is now in charge of Swansea City brandishing his own brand of attractive football that has resulted in much praise, most notably from Cardiff City’s Seyi Olofinjana, dubbing the Swans ‘the Chelsea of the Championship’.
