If Michu goes for 25-35million then I'd buy Erikson from Ajax and try to get Lukaku from Chelsea. Would be a great replacement
I must say i hate that the transfer window doesnt shut once the season stats but im sure we will do fine anyway, if we do sell it will be for top money and we have replacements even for Michu imo. If its going to happen it needs to be soon though. Like others have said we know nothing really, it could be definite and we already have extra cover ready to sign.
its what football is all about and always has been. if they stay or if they go we will still carry on and win lose and draw games. no player is bigger than the club at the end of the day. It wont be the first time that players leave and it wont be the last either, we will know in the coming hours anyway....
In the big picture building Swansea up as a midtabel club 35 million pounds will be fantastic. But for this season it will **** everything up. But if Wenger came with an offer on 35 million for those two players I would sell any day.
Want to put money on him going Dai? After all the media is on you side, on this one, so should be an easy bet for you mate!....................
If this offer is real, it is going to shine a light of truth on the club's philosophy, the thinking of the Board, player and manager commitment. How ML responds to this is going to be interesting. If we've done our homework then we already know where this money is going to be spent and it should just be a matter of closing the deal and pushing paperwork through FIFA - if not then we're in for a rough few months as others are going to have to stand-up and assume the responsibility to lead and score. It's also likely to create stress at the end of the season as ML decides to stay or move on.
Well im pretty sure the likes of Bony didn't sign to see our best players leave within weeks! I believe the project at Swansea still has enough legs to keep the likes of michu interested down here. Is he a big city boy ? no. I think he is happy here at this club and as long as our manager is here he will be too.
dragon how can you bet on something that we are not privy to.....only an idiot will do that so carry on
norway there is no such thing as he is happy here....it will all come down to money. money for the club and money for the players......to think any player stays here because he loves the club is bollox as proven by one of our own who was at the club since he was 9 years old....the minute he was offered more it was bye bye swansea hello liverpool. Im hoping the board will turn them down but £35 million is a fantasic sum and maybe to good to turn down....
Good point Dai .... and the player in question is now riding the bench. As if we don't have enough examples of doing good with us and not so good away, Michu and Ash beware. Ash should know as well as anybody from his time at the club the pitfalls and pratfalls (pun not intended) of those that are enchanted by the money.
Really, well I never ever knew that,thank you so much for those wise words of wisdom ! So what your saying is that its not possible for him to be happy here and decide to move on ?? Your talking daft now, he is happy here, he has said he is happy here ,do you want me to give you his direct quotes ? it will have a bearing on what he decides to do, its not all about money with some footballers Dai, you need to get that out of your head. Canas was offered more money to sign for WBA where di he end up? at the place that will give him the best chance of enjoying and progressing his football, so your argument about it being all about the money is not strictly true !! Time will tell, if Michu goes its because he feels it will be the best overall move for his career, some players know that the money looks after itself when you reach a certain level
By the way, I never said "because he loves the club" that has nothing to do with it ,we all know that ! Stop making up total lies to suit your argument or quote correctly fella, you make your self look stupid when you make up random stuff
norway I'm pointing out that nobody loves any club...nobody....Its how much money they can earn is the only thing with every player that plays professional football. that is why they do it...
If he stays it wont be because of bony, of laudrup or any other myth. it will be because the two clubs cant come to a decision and that what im hoping for....
Dai, there is as much reason to believe the guy will still be here as there is to say he will leave .
valley you are not using leon as an example are you...Leon moved up the ladder when he joined us. he was a nothing at west ham ...he was at arsenal first anyway...
An even better example is Michu staying at rayo vallacano when they where relegated, refusing to move to a big pay day in La Liga because the team that wanted him were rivals to his hometown club Oviedo !
