Interesting to see how he'll get on. Not holding my breath if it had anything to do with Jenkins mind

Well yeah, particularly as two of them have retired


Both could turn up to our next match and put in performances far exceeding anything Fernandez is now capable of.

I remember attending the Rotherham match where he made his debut and later commenting on this forum how he looked shambolic back then against lower league attackers.

He has been carried by Williams ever since and now is exposed with no where to hide.

£8m excluding his wages must be up there with one of the worst signings in this clubs history.

There is a significant difference between 'world class' and 'better than Fernandez'

Should be straight in the starting eleven for the next match. Amat was average enough along side Williams so I remain hopeful that he is capable of such performances again alongside a second composed defender.

I suspect even world class defenders such as Rio Ferdinand, Vidic and Smalling would struggle alongside Fernandez.


Fck off back to redcafe.

Hope this guy can fulfil his promise with us.

Seems to have his head screwed on which is one positive.

And to have captained Barnsley at 22 he must have some leadership qualities that we are lacking at the back.

Let's hope he spends the next ten years with us and becomes one of our great signings.

Interesting. We could have signed John Stones and Mason Holgate before they moved to Everton!!

Dave Leadbeater, who was brought up in Brierley, had recommended Oakwell academy graduates Stones and Holgate to the Swans' hierarchy before they made moves to Premier League rivals Everton.

He said City were not going to miss out on a third Barnsley defender and were happy to outbid their rivals to secure Mawson's signature. He believes Mawson is good enough to go straight into Francesco Guidolin's first team and potentially replace former captain and Welsh international Ashley Williams.

"We liked Stones and Holgate but it's about what you need at the time," Leadbeater told the Chronicle.

"Back then we were not after a central defender but this time we were. "We lost Ashley and we wanted a homegrown lad to replace him. As soon as we heard other clubs were interested (in Mawson) we knocked the door down. "

I hope this bloke lives up to his billing. The noise is quite positive and we could sure do with that.

To rub salt into the wound Everton paid £3M for Stones before selling him for £50M. I bet the club are kicking themselves.

Change to Alfie is our hero, he's solid as a wall, he plays in front of Fabbi, who's got a massive pole.

So we reject arguably the only solid recommendation our chief scout has ever given us but were happy to sign the others who have all clearly turned out to be rubbish.

Another catastrophic mistake from Jenkins. The list keeps growing.

Forgive me Mr Blame Huw Jenkins, but what exactly are we blaming him for? Have we been relegated?

Now I have my own issues with how he's behaved along with some others, and I don't like the control freakery vibe in general, but haven't we have been in the PL for six straight seasons ending solidly mid table each time? Is that what we are blaming him for?

John Stones my arse. Amazing how many people always claim 'we could have signed him, I always saw his talent' when someone turns out to be a success. About as convincing as that Everton joker saying they turned down Sissoko because they didn't want to upset James McCarthy because he is like family.

Hindsight is 20:20, we can't buy all of the kids our scouts recommend, and we can't prevent other clubs from getting the same recommendations from their own.
