    Okay then boyo's, that time has come again. No Premier League football for a few months but we will hear plenty of action off it this summer.

    If you see anything regarding players coming and going feel free to check in and let the rest of us know about it, sources and all!

    <cheers>

    I've been hearing more about the rumours of the split between Monk and some of the Spaniards. I'm not gonna share them here because they're only rumours, but suffice to say (and evidence points to the same) some will be going in the summer.
    First out the door will probably be Pozuelo and Canas.
    Chico has some bridges to build if he wants to stay, but that's a bit more 50:50.
    Amat and Rangel are having a good time in Swansea and both should stay.
    Hernandez and Michu didn't come into the conversation because they were injured and we were talking about the squad for the Sunderland game.

    All that said, our back four looks decent with

    Rangel
    Amat
    Bartley
    Williams
    Davies
    Taylor
    (And possibly Tiendalli in a crisis)

    All we have to do is hold in to them all.

    Is there now an official anti-Spain policy in the club?

    You haven't included Chico, is there a reason? Because I'm hearing he's gone!
    I'm really concerned about Chico because (apart from being excellent centre back) it appears to have more to do style of play (football v English way) and with 'man management' than anything else. Not good for the club.
    Pozuello has the potential to be a fantastic AM and has always been a good alternative when a bettering ram approach isn't wiring.

    Added to that we're looking to extend the loan on deGuzman I'm starting to worry that my earlier fears are materialising.

    Get rid of Poz and bring in Jonny Williams, much better player.

    Oh cock, how could I have left him out??? It all started with him and Monk. Chico apparently has an inability to respect authority (Again, I'm not going into the specific rumours.) Despite his being a liability with regards to temperament, I like his footballing ability.
    What I'm hearing though is that he's on his way to a London club.

    This was all over the papers last week. Some guy from Valenciennes (spelling fail!) with an atrocious goal to games record. Not good enough.

    Williams has looked good for brief spells for Wales and has the support of Ipswich management but his stats tell different story (I appreciate he's quite young but he's only a few months younger than Ben Davies)
    He's been injured or not available for fitness issues for a little over a third of the time he's been in first team squads.
    He's scored 2 goals in 65 appearances over two seasons and provided 4 assists. (Poz 36 games 2 goals 6 assists this season)
    Didn't look capable of playing 90 minutes at a high level.


    He is, of course, not considered good enough for Palace.
    Bench player at best for us unless we aim to build a side to struggle.

    Papakouli Diop. Swansea have been monitoring the Senegal international in recent weeks and have been tipped to firm up their interest soon.
