    Let's hope the Council see sense and now tell them to **** off on any stadium deal.

    Wholehearted agree but would try to get Sousa (who is a free agent) back.

    I know this is a really radical idea but, given our squad and its limitations, why not play Rangel as a full back and one of the under 23s as a right back - not wing backs just as full backs with hard working midfielders in front of them.

    I had to take a break from yesterday's game to regain some sanity, I have also resigned myself to the fact that we are shot and would struggle in the Championship. You reap what you sow, and Huw Jenkins has sown some seriously damaging Transfers, he is the sole reason we are where we are now, and to add to the terribly poor transfers, we have to deal with clueless freeloading Yanks.

    This team wouldn't cut it in the Championship, I cannot believe we payed £16 Million for Clueless, Hull must be laughing all the way to the bank, not only has our football philosophy been tragically killed off, but we have sold every bit of creativity we had in the squad.

    The gross neglect by Huw Jenkins in the transfer market these last three seasons, is evidence enough that he must go, he is no longer fit for purpose, he has single handedly ruined the club with his inept dealings, the writing was on the wall when he failed to bring Joe Allen back, how many Welsh boys do the Swans have in the squad? the man is a disgrace, and he must go along with his inept manager he hired.

    This was as poor as I have seen from the Swans even in the Bradley era. Needs to get the players sorted in the international break and head up to burnley and get a result as this is now looking unlikely. We look disorganised and have a total lack of confidence at the moment. Like people say, a lack of decent signings in the transfer window and losing best players every season is bound the catch up at some time.

    Letting Clement off too easily.
    He picks players out of position because he thinks they are his best players. As he should have discovered an attacking midfield player can not play left back. He tried the same with Fer last season so it should not have been a surprise. Clucas has played left back three times (to put it in perspective that was 2 more times than Rangel has played goalkeeper) one game was good the other two were disastrous. (Change that to played 4, 1 good, 2 disastrous, 1 career threateningly poor). I'm not sure how long it will take Clucas to get over his performance and crowd reaction but I doubt his heart will be forever Swansea following Clements antics.

    Llorente and Siggy demanded to go and most view it as the Americans fault . Small clubs will always have successful players with clauses and such for their departure and small club fans will always blame managers and owners .... and the beat goes on .

    I don't recall anyone blaming the owners on the sale of those two but I do recall they still haven't dipped into their pockets to take us to the next level ,although they seem to be doing ok in that regard only it's not the direction we want to be heading
