    And who are these experienced players? Our most experienced players are still playing for the club. Also, who is lining up to leave the club?

    Bony, Vorm, Chico, Michu, Taylor, Gomis, Chico, Pablo, Canas, Shelvey - all players with experience of other clubs, several managers and systems. (I don't incude Davies as he had limited experience of other clubs / mangers and was pushed). deGuzman wasn't our and didn't want to stay, Carroll isn't ours and wants a return to Spurs.
    And don't hold your breath on Siggy, Ki, Fernandez and Montero in the summer - just saying.

    Vorm got upgraded in Fabianski, Chico was upgraded in the form of Fernandez, Taylor still ours and staying, Gomis is having a bitchfit, Pablo upgraded in the form of Montero, Canas - Carroll or Ki, Shelvey hasn't said he wants to leave, Michu - see Gylfi.

    I can't see the line of players queuing up to leave. Also, our most experienced players are Rangel, Ash, Leon, Routs and Dyer. They're still here too.

    I'm not convinced yet that Fernandez is an upgrade and Taylor almost always has transfer rumours attached - again Montero looks amazing but he's only played a few games, let's hope he isn't as injury prone as Pablo who was an outstanding player and a much more prolific (if that's the right word) goal scorer than Montero in senior teams. Would Vorm have been our number 2 had the Fabianski transfer been handled better?

    I take your point about 'our most experienced players', they are in Swansea terms but with the exception of Routs they haven't had much experience of other clubs at a higher level.

    I haven't read anywhere that Monk has said he will not go for less than £30 Million? I'd be very happy to be proved wrong, so where is the evidence? just asking like.
