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.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.And their summer spending – their most expensive outlay since relegation from the Premier League in 2018 – has seen hope of a return to the top-flight flicker back into life.It smouldered further even amid the south Wales rain as they humbled Ange Postecoglou and knocked Forest out of the EFL Cup to reach the last-16 for the first time since they themselves were a top-level club.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 – I’m probably more a guy who puts petrol on it.”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.”We’re building something, I do believe that.”
