    So far I believe we've spent £2.5m on Amat, £5m on Shelvey, and maybe some compo for the Pozuelo move (not sure). If we spend £13m on Bony then how much do you think is left in the transfer kitty? I'd say we could and possibly should take the total up to £30m to secure on more striker. The extra tv cash should hopefully cover the extra wages and hopefully we'll offload the fringe players. What do you all think? How much more spending do we need?

    probably £8-10 million for a quality midfielder and a defender...after everything evens itself out i dont think we would have spent £10-12 million max if that.....i might be wrong but im taking into account Brendan and his backroom staff, Joe allen and danny all of which we made a huge profit...

    I can't help but wonder if we've actually spent anything on Jonjo or wether we've come up with some sort of a deal with Liverpool because they still owed us £5M from the Joe Allen transfer

    I think all we need is 1 strike and 1 winger unless someone else is going out the other way,

    Strikers:
    Bony
    ????
    Donnelley

    Wingers:
    Hernandez
    Dyer
    Routlage
    Lamah
    ?????

    Midfield:
    Michu
    JDG
    Britton
    Canas
    Shelvey
    Ki
    Pozuelo

    Defenders
    Ash
    Chico
    Davies
    Rangel
    Taylor
    Amat
    Jazz
    Monk

    Gk
    Vorm
    Tremmel

    This is by far the strongest team we have ever seen, squad rotation will now be a problem for us!

    .......Give the man a beer, because this of course is spot on, Liverpool still owed £5 Million for Alan, so maybe we just forked out 1 Million!........................<ok>

    Absolutely right, so far we have Jonjo 1mill tops, Pozuelo undisclosed but believed to be ( by me ) around 1.5 mill, Canas was free ,Jordi 2.5, JDG loan, Gogic free and Zabret 1 mill tops.

    I think 7 or 8 would cover it so far...

    I don't think we'll spend any more money if this deal goes forward. Unless of course we were owed money from Liverpool and the debt was offset on the other transfer. I've said that I doubt we'd spend more than £20m in this window.

    I just saw on SSN that we are supposed to be signing Ronnie Stam on a free. That was a new one on me

    Jager, I tend to agree with you on that estimation because we also have to take into account wages as well and given the fiscal prudence of the board it sound about right.

    Same thought here - I mean I can just get on my bike and go to Christiania. Don't know how hard it is to get the stuff in Wales. But here on a football related board is taking Things to a new level! Desperation does that to people....

    BTW - Swansea should spend the bitter Money on Granero: the guy has bags of potential...

    I like Granero and think he could do well. I know he plays out wide but he prefers the number 10 role and he aint getting a sniff around here. We've already signed 39 attacking midfielders I think... ;)
