Do assists from set pieces no longer count like? Without his goals and assists you'd be in the Championship now, as he either scored or assisted in 21 of your 45 goals all season
Who do you think was on the end of those set piece goals ... Llorente . 6 open play goals and 5 open play assists for Siggy , hardly anything to write home about . , Fer scored 6 open play goals for us last season and cost us 4.5 million .... But please , take Siggy for 45 million . I'll fly over and drive him there frankly . There are better players around than Siggy for a lot less money IMO .. I love the guy but lwould love the money more .
He's a proven PL player and his stats are up there with the best of them. The money means knack all if you don't replace his goals and assists with a player of equal quality who can cut it in the PL.
You can try to fool your friends and I can try to fool mine , but lets not fool each other . Siggy is not worth what is being offered and I want him sold .. simple . Interesting article about Siggy's " stats in Edit : The Guardian , under Everton should think twice
No footballer is worth £50m, it's called supply and demand. It makes me laugh that he's now somehow not that important / overated / dispensable to the mighty Swansea, when last season he was your saviour. Assuming we don't jock this off at the 11th hour, let's see what that over inflated fee helps you achieve this season minus Sigurdsson.
When it comes to Swansea last season , you don't know your arse from a hole in the ground .. read the article in the Guardian .
More importantly for you , if the deal goes down , we'll see if you get your moneys worth . Talk to you about it after the season Bub... if you get him and we lose him
He either scored or assisted in 21 of your 45 goals all season. I saw plenty of Swansea last season btw, and you were largely ****ing awful
Only 11 goals or assists of those were from open play . 6 assists came from Llorente goals on set pieces ... our saviour last season
So just a quarter of all of your goals then................ as somehow the fact that for the rest he's stuck the ball right on your strikers bonce has seen them disallowed as counting in the land of the ****ing clueless
Did the PL knock set piece goals off then? ****ing news to me. Denying Siggy is your best player is ludicrous btw.
If it wasn't for Llorente's ability to score per chance , we would be in big trouble last season . One third of our goals ...Llorente cost us 5 million . Ki had 9 goals and an assist from open play a few seasons ago , he cost us 6 million .
Llorente would be a bigger loss for that Swansea team imo. Only just though, both are vital tbh. But come on 50mil is ****ing ridiculous... But everything seems to be ridiculous at the moment. We're up for spending 75mil on a 22 year old midget with 1 season of top football under him, albeit he does look tasty and exactly what we need.
I disagree, look at us last year, had Austin & Gabbi but means **** all without a playmaker to supply them.
... but that's irrelevant ... it's the club rejecting the bid ... I'm sure there are plenty of clubs he would prefer to Everton too ..
You have no idea what the breakdown of that bid was, same as I don't. I think it suited Swansea to make out it was a straight offer without add ons.
I was thinking that .... think the last thing they won was the Johnstone's Lime Rendering Invitation Trophy back in the 1890s
4th most successful club in England. Come back when your provincial no mark club has 9 league titles in the bag love
