and dont forget that magical release clause in the region of £25,000,000. Whatever may happen in the future its money in the bank for a soon to be Spanish international capped player. Good business-GREAT business well done The Board.
Great buisness by the board michus a great value player so far and if he continues to impress long term were even more quids in if he gets poached. Sir ML next. Long term with an extra buy out clause ala brenda`s, but it could be that as ML has seen it all and done most things in footy, not wanting the high stress of the dictator run big clubs and made for life money wise ? he will be that rare thing and stay here with a long term plan to try to get us beyond where most could only dream of. knowing were in the black financially with good assets, board and mega money on the horizon when we stay up again and again, having built up on a shoestring budget compared to most, he knows how to get value for money in the market and could get us to the next levels . if im wrong and he ends up going then no worries the board will sort it out again.
It's all been said but I've got to chip in and say what a wonderful boost this has been for all us Jacks. And I agree that the icing on the cake would be for King Michael to also sign an extended contract. I wonder if he will do that if we can win the League Cup and get into Europe. Now that would be a statement!!
well thats made me a very appy chappie, flippin' great news. Michu, you jack barsteward, now go and celebrate by getting the biz done on the pitch tonight!
"I'm really happy here in the city with the people, the club and the fans. Everyone has been so nice to me since I arrived.....I'm happy here. I've read and listened to all the speculation, but it doesn't interest me, and that's why I've signed a new contract. I'm enjoying myself too much because the team always tries to play football. All I think about is the next game and helping Swansea be successful. This is my life.'' At that point I realised my pants needed a wash.
Very nice, well chuffed that he has further committed himself to the Swans. To celebrate I'm going to put him down for a hattrick tonight
Oh Yes, Oh Yes, Oh Yes, Get in there Michu son! ........................ please log in to view this image
This is massive news for the club and also eases my worries linking us with 18 month loan deals for players which seemed to correspond with the remainder of ML contract (a few others also raised these concerns recently) . Well done to the board for acting swiftly. And given the words spoken by Michu, he has no interest in leaving us in the near future. Now Huw, get ML and the rest of the squad tied down. Fantastic news before the game tonight, now lets get to that final
Michu, Laudrup,Huw Jenkins, great team, good football, fan involement, LC semi final 2nd leg - 2 up - has there ever been a better time to be a Jack?... ...hope we get to Wembley and lift the cup before I wake up and realise that it was all just a dream!

That is the object of getting him to sign an extention, Now clubs who do want him will have to start the bidding high. good bit of business that should have been used on a number of players in the past...Lesson learned i think...
I'll be singing this tonight - He signs when he wants He signs when he wants Miguel Michu He signs when he wants
Well we really do need the continuity these days, as we have done remarkable well considering we have had 3 managers poached these last few years! Need some stability, and loyalty from players and manager, it would help in laying firm Premiership foundations, here's to us tying King Laudrup down to a longer contract too!.............
