    We should never have signed him. He's piss poor <grr>

    £17m for him and £11m for Mesa. That's £28 ****ing million <wah>

    £36m if you also include Sanchez loan fee :headbang::headbang::headbang:

    If I'm honest I thought we were a lot better yesterday. We were far more positive than previous matches and we never looked in trouble. Our problem was a lack of pace in the final third.

    We flatter to deceive, your clutching at straws mate, sorry to say, the inevitable is coming like an express train, and Clement knows it, you can lay it all at the door of the Swansea boardroom, trying to play football managers, the ****ers are now going to reap what they have sown, but we fans have to suck it up as well unfortunately, could get very ugly this season when the penny drops with the Jack Army jenkins sheep..............<ok>

    But we sold Andre for more than we paid for his brother...

    Also Neil Taylor was part of the Jordan deal

    ..one of the few positives from the weekend is realising we got a good deal on selling Andre Ayew! ........not Swans related but elsewhere it was nice to see Ben Davies having a stormer for Spurs

    The positive for me is further proof that Clem is really a No2 and not someone who has the ability to take a bunch of mostly below standard players and turn them into a side that works together and can stay comfortably in the premiership.......Stay by all means but we need a manager who knows what he is doing to be No1.

    Williams was sold the season before . Just because we made 80 million doesn't mean we have to spend 80 million . 60 million was a lot , might have spent it a bit different mind ya .

    We spend what it takes to improve the team and not sell our best players just for profit as we can plainly see what happens. The only reason we are where we are is not the fault of Clement as he was appointed by jenkins without any experience of managing a club in the top league. The fault lays firmly with the owners assisted by Jenkins, We have been sold down the river and it was planned right from the start....

    It's hard to defend the DOF's action in the transfer market this season. We've been seriously weakened by letting our two top players leave and brought in dross to replace them. What on earth was he thinking of, bringing Bony back, a player who hasn't played for two years, is unfit, and has a big question mark over his real age. He pays a record transfer fee for Clucas, a virtual unknown, who so far looks to be a very average player. He bought Mesa, who the manager doesn't rate and won't play. He brings in Sanches who is totally off form and lacking in confidence, and Abraham, a rookie from Chelsea, never played at the top level before. With the manager already in panic mode playing five at the back at home to Watford, who'd lost 6-0 the previous week, and having one shot on target against West Ham next game, a team also in disarray and who were below us in the table, there's only one outcome ahead unless we have a radical change in team formation and tactics.

    Pretty much covers our current state of affairs, our boardroom are no longer fit for purpose, would love to see the back of Jinx. he's well past his sell by date, him and Monk are two snakes in the grass with top hats on....................<ok>

    Having dismantled West Ham at the London Stadium, Brighton will be licking their lips at the prospect of coming here in a fortnights time.
