    Clucas , Bony ,Sanchez, Baston and Mesa ...63 million ( including Sanches's big wage ).
    Possible starts by these players .....82 to date .
    Games actually started by these players ....17 to date .
    Basically in the past year or so .... new owners , 4 managers ( including Curtis ) with a possible 5th on the horizon , 9 new players .
    What we have here is a failure to communicate and an inability to build a team out of very reasonable players .

    What we have is bricks and mortar and super pitches and facilities.....
    What we dont have is good enough owners who understand what football means to a place like swansea, A chairman who is still in the lower leagues, and a manager who is below premiership standard and clueless and the less we say about the players the better...

    What we have is a culmination of crap managers, buying crap players and w@ankers in charge.

    I think Clement could be a good manager but is weak amongst the players' egos and should probably be replaced before next game . I'd love to see him prove me wrong but our performances should be getting better instead of worse . I also think we have good players to have a good team but seem to be confused in general .

    IF he has not learned how to be a good manager after being with some great managers and some great clubs by now then he will never be a good enough manager for top level football.....He should be down there in League 2 and non league learning how to do that....

    Not me... was against Bony returning especially for the price we paid, And i was against paying £17m for clueless......£3m - £5m at a push would be taking a chance..

    Bony is our ticket out of this mess IMO , once he gets playing . Brings much more than Abraham , who needs 10 clear cut chances to score 4 . Bony will come good .

    Bony is only here because the club are stupid enough to pay his wage. If someone else came in with the same or better offer he would not have come back ....

    And my aunt would be my uncle if she had a c***.
    Clement said players and the job wouldn't intimidate him because he'd worked with some of the biggest egos in football.
    Agree with the rest. :emoticon-0148-yes:

    what we have is a fantastic reference to Cool Hand Luke, was this intentional? I hope so

    But it is disturbing to see it in figures like that, the strangest being the situation with Mesa this season and Baston last season. We have to assume neither were/are good enough to make the starting XI so surely some responsibility needs to be taken over the sanctioning of these transfers. But I won't be holding my breath on that!

    Yes , I stole the saying , lol ...... My concern is the cavalier way we are transferring these past few seasons .... big transfers for the sake of saying " We spent money " , while a guy like Cork is shown the door . To me , it's a huge problem . We need to spend our money like we always did , practically , even if it's big money . Think twice and spend once .

    If you think Baston is having a good season I can't imagine what a poor season is , he's not playing and Malaga are bottom of the La Liga <laugh>, but I agree Gomis is knocking them in
