Swansea City handed Ipswich Town their first three points of the season after succumbing to a 3-2 home defeat at the weekend.  

The result leaves the Swans with one win in six ahead of a trip to Villa Park in a fortnight, with Graham Potter's men sitting 11th in the Championship table after 12 league outings.

It has been an indifferent start after relegation from the Premier League last term with four wins, five draws and three defeats from their opening dozen matches of the new campaign.

With the January transfer window coming up in a couple of months, expectations are still high in South Wales, with Swansea still hopeful of forming a promotion push in the second half of the campaign.

Here, we take a look at the triple swoop Swansea need to make to push them up the table in January...

In order to shore up their defence, the Swans should definitely look to reignite their interest in Scottish international Scott McKenna, of whom they enquired about at the end of the transfer window.

The 21-year-old defender captained his nation at the end of last season, and could fill the void left by Alfie Mawson who departed the Liberty Stadium in the summer.

Liam Bridcutt is expected to leave Nottingham Forest in the summer having made just three appearances this term, and Swansea should definitely be looking at the 29-year old ahead of the transfer window.

Bridcutt is still a very good player at this level having been a solid figure for Leeds and Forest, and would add much needed depth to the Swansea midfield.

Should a move for Bridcutt fail to materialise, then Graham Potter should definitely look to reunite with Ostersunds midfielder Curtis Edwards.

The 24-year old midfielder has been a solid figure for the Swedish club ever since Potter signed the Englishman back in 2016, and the Swans boss should definitely look to go back to his old stomping ground to land the industrious midfielder.
