    Bony coming back....not for me.Im not a great lover of players returning.
    We need to go forward not backwards.

    On the defence side of things we conceded goals for fun last season.Get some defenders in please board.

    3-3 draws with a couple of 4-3 wins will be enough to keep us up though ;)

    I like one striker up front and one just behind with a free reign to draw defenders off the main striker.....

    It's unlike Gylfi to throw a tantrum, my guess is that there was more than a circus going on around him, with him being pulled between Everton, his agent and the Swans. At the end of the day the Swans put him on the market for a fee after he signed a long contract.

    My gut reaction would be to look at the people/circumstances surrounding that period before I disciplined him - and I doubt if Clement will.

    No news of a fee, which is why I think it's a loan. £10-£13m was being reported last week though?

    The time line has become so blurred now, but your post is a valid one.

    However, Sigurdsson is a highly paid professional footballer, and as such has a responsibility to the Club, his team mates, the supporters, both USA residents and those who made the long journey, and to himself, to carry out the role he is employed to do. He is a hero to many, and to cry off because his "head wasn't right" wasn't very heroic.
    Just my opinion, of course. Perhaps I expect too much from him.
