  1. As a Swansea fan I just can't understand how players like Shelvey, Hnederson and Sterling can get into the England ahead of players like Dyer and Britton.

    The England Thread

    It appears that if you play for little old Swansea you don't get picked for England, I believe this would have been in the mind of Sinclair when he left and probably why we will end up losing Dyer. How Campbell was picked ahead of Graham last year was baffling, Britton doesn't get a chance even in friendlies.
  3. I see Brendan (I don't like to talk about other teams players) Rodgers is openly taking about Vorm now. He don't like to talk about other teams players but it appears he sees it as a necessary evil.

  5. I hear this second season syndrome doesn;t really exist, I think it does, but its the manager that gets it. A bit of time in the Championship may do them good though, rebuild and all that. ha
  6. I'm glad that guy managing Liverpool doesn't manage us, I don't think I'd swap Laudrup for anyone at the moment. I almost want you guys to draw with Villa (almost) just to see them in the bottom 3.
  7. Just looked at the league table and saw we are top, suddenly my nose started bleeding.
  8. think we had a bit of a charmed ilfe in front of goal that half
  9. I'm so glad no-one came in for Vorm this year
  10. For this year only we have gold trim to celebrate our centenary Ah. So you don't seem to miss Rodgers at all, is that accurate? who?

    Pity Financial Fair Play doesn't handle the issue of money coming in as well as money going out. I could be worse though, like in Spain, where Barcelona and Real Madrid are allowed to negotiate their own private TV deals and then rake in ALL the cash. It's a wonder the other teams don't pool together and refuse television rights on any game their involved in against those two.

    They want him to part the red sea when they play United and Liverpool

    Ki signing for us today has broken 3 records. Record amount for a Korean Player Record Fee paid by Swansea Record Fee paid by a Welsh club. Hope he's worth it now edit: Oh we could break the last two this weekend by signing Hernandez.
  15. Michu * 2 Fantastic run and pass by Routledge too. Excellent goal

    Being as he's been a big Man Utd fan since childhood, maybe you should have bid for Allen, he probably would have chosen you over fork-tongue.

    I can easily believe it, I liked his pace. Not the most gifted footballer I've ever seen but always gave 100%. Just one of those things. To be honest he's probably the best crosser we have, Sinclair runs inside all the time and Dyer tends to do short passes. It's nice to see all the usual suspects predicting relegation for us this year, if we replace Allen intelligently we'll have a stronger team than last year. Graham's looking likely to be scoring more this year.

    Believe it or not Routledge plays quite well think Laudrup wants 3 or 4 wingers available.

    Unsure about the truth of Scott Sinclair to Man City but we're apparently lining up Pablo Hernandez a right winger from Valencia

    Blackpool have done that before, remember reading about some poor sod they signed that couldn't afford to live without hand outs, he was desperate. 90 a week and a big bonus for playing, shame they never played him. Here the story surviving on hand-outs tried with Fowler too Fowler... erm.... no

    Although the statement is probably correct, Joe Allen doesn't have a twitter account.

    I meant, known about in general, not just to Brendan. The f***ed up part being that Brendan is privy to it and has left the club. I haven't watched enough of your football to judge but who do you rate better than Allen? Will be interested to see how you perform next season Vorm, kept us in many matches, Williams (another supposed Liverpool target) a rock in defense, Taylor, Britton, Dyer all have been very good. New signings De Guzman and Michu seem the real deals and Chico is already becoming a cult figure, I think we'll do OK this season, maybe better than last.

    No your not, Swansea are as well. We had agreed 7 million for Gylfi prior to Rodgers leaving, Laudrup wasn't keen as he thought he could get better for less money, our 3 new signings played very well in our 4-2 win against Blackpool, 2 bought for 4.5 million and 1 loaned for a year with agreed price (6 mil I think). Think we'll surprise everyone again this year.
