Toshack's Swansea side have won 16 out of their last 19 and are top of their division with a chance in the cup.

And this isn't a sentence from the early 1980s.

At Swansea there's a new Toshack in town these days. Cameron, son of former boss John, helps coach an under-23 side having an impressive season.

On Tuesday night they played in the quarter finals of the Checkatrade Trophy but were beaten on penalties by Coventry City.

The Checkatrade Trophy is tournament much-maligned this season, but Swansea's youngsters beat three league sides to get so far and were the only Premier League academy side to reach the quarter finals.
