    Not too lmpressed with this ( Vic Gonk !!!!) bloke playing for Brighton. .... He was playing tonight against
    Man U. And was substituted early in the 2nd half. Think we should sign from lower league, would probably do better for us, wanting to prove himself.

    Don't like being dragged out to the last minute, ...... they know a lot more than we are being told.
    The Fans are treated like idiots at times. ........... This bloody Giggs is getting on my nerves now, seems to me that he is still acting as a scout for Man U. Firstly it was James he recommended to United, now it seems he is doing the same thing with Joe Rodon. Why doesn't he concentrate on his job, and not interfere with our club.
    Remember he is from Cardiff. ............... As for the 3rd bloody kit, sod it. let's have a few bloody players
    to wear it first.
    Matthew, I thought that that player seemed very cumbersome last night, was he fit?

    Too be honest Victor watching the game last night , compared to the ladies on Sunday I enjoyed the ladies game much more , at least i watched that to the end , Utd v Brighton I watched the first 20 minutes , yawned a bit and turned over to watch Mrs Minerva on UK Gold but what I did see I wasn't too impressed with ( the game not Mrs Minerva) :wink:

    Swansea City has completed the signing of Brighton striker Viktor Gyokeres on a season-long loan, subject to international clearance.

    The 22-year-old Sweden international becomes the Swans’ sixth summer signing in the wake of the captures of Korey Smith, Freddie Woodman, Morgan Gibbs-White, Marc Guehi and Jamal Lowe.

    Gyokeres, who will wear the number 14 shirt, bolsters Steve Cooper’s attacking options and is available for Saturday’s Championship meeting with Millwall at the Liberty Stadium.

    The Scandinavian has had a bright beginning to the new campaign - he started all three of Brighton’s Carabao Cup games - with the forward netting in the first-round win over Portsmouth.

    Gyokeres spent last season on loan at St Pauli, where he scored seven goals in 26 appearances in the German second tier.

    He first emerged through the youth systems at IFK Aspudden-Tellus and IF Brommapojkarna – the latter also playing a part in the development of another current Swan in Joel Asoro.

    Gyokeres made his senior debut as a teenager in 2015, and his performances were enough to attract the interest of Premier League side Brighton, who announced his signing in September 2017.

    The forward remained in his homeland as his goals helped IF Brommapojkarna secure promotion back to the top-flight, before making the move to the south coast of England in January 2018.

    He started with the club’s under-23 side, and scored 11 goals in his first 12 appearances.

    He has since made eight first-team appearances - four coming in the FA Cup with the other four being in the Carabao Cup – before his loan switch to St Pauli for the 2018-19 campaign.

    Gyokeres has won two caps for his country, netting once in a draw with Iceland in 2019.

    Rodon in talks with Spurs. **** off Jose!!


    BREAKING NEWS

    Could Jose Mourinho be about to land a defender?

    Tottenham are in talks to sign Joe Rodon from Swansea City.

    One source has told us an £18m deal is close to being agreed between the two clubs.

    Probably the sweetener in the deal. I bet he will come in on a year deal then with us having an option to buy.

    I take it you rate him highly, then?
    How much do you think we should be paying for him and how low would a successful bid have to be to piss you off?

    The 18m is pissing me off. ;)

    We have to be realistic that we’re a selling club and this is just a transfer to balance the books, or to send back to the good ol USA fir the grabbing bastards that own the club.

    Anyway back on track, he is a quality player, missed a big chunk of last season, but has come storming back to forge the solid defence we have at the moment. Decent footballer he can play a bit, so will fit in well with Jose’s footballing ethos.

    Can you get Jose to up the bid to 25m then I might not have to kick the cat tonight, just think of the cat!!!

    Personally, I think that anywhere north of £20m would be a done deal - perhaps it will be £18m plus CCV on loan: I suspect the Yanks would take that.

    Cash is king to the Yanks....
