It's interesting. Personally I think there might be a bid 'too good' for the club to turn down in the summer. The resolve will certainly be tested with concerns to gylfi. If we could get 1 more year of service i think it will benefit us and not do too much harm to his progression.

Some silly things being said in this thread chaps.

Some are getting played like a fiddle.

I want a mate like Flashberryjacks, who wears a Barnsley jersey with "Swans are my second team" on the back.

Some of the comments here are what's going wrong with this Forum of late.
If people can't see what The Res is saying they should log off and have a think.

Are Iceland a better team than England?
We beat Everton two weeks ago are we a better team than them?

It's not difficult FFS.


Really not understanding this, Darran.

Enlighten me. What exactly is Res trying to say here?

We have had a pi$$ poor season but Everton are no better than us they have just started splashing the cash now


You genuinely believe Everton are no better than us? Fair play.

If we end up selling Siggy after he said this, the Board should be lined up in front of a firing squad.

The interview he gave radio wales is on the 'Swansea weekly podcast', on their site if anyone's interested.
It's about 9:55 in, here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0539j2z
He seems pretty blasé about the whole affair, as he usually is.

not sure i'm all that concerned about a few pull quotes from a player who has always said the right things. his comments don't change anything.

siggy won't force a move. that much has always been clear, but he certainly has a price, and he might up the bidding a bit by stating he's happy.

im convinced that he's gone if the bidding gets to 28-30M. can you guys honestly see jenkins refusing that?

Russia? Australia?

Seriously though mate, I think the time is right all round. He feels he can still do it at a "big club" and at 27 will see himself as in his prime.

His stock is never going to be higher than it is right now and that money will be crucial for us over the next few seasons.

I hear the concerns about re-investing the money and nobody can predict the future, but I'm hoping the Club is being run well and the signs from the outside is that it is.

This means growing the Club slowly but successfully.

The training and academy areas are finished, and look at the results. So no great capital injection needed there any more.

We've got the manager we need. Intelligent with real presence, tactically superior and with the right pedigree.

We've seen the type of players we've gone in for under him in January. Yes, we know he wouldn't have scouted them. but he signed off on them.

We are seeing signs of commercial improvement, Pearlman and Co. are knocking on the right doors with Swansea Council and recognising how important the Club is to the City and vice versa. We should see greater revenue from overseas, the States for one...

And the expansion of the stadium under this lot looks a distinct possibility rather than just a pipe dream.

So we'll need money to be competitive and not rely on just one or two big fish getting more and more spoiled and petulant. We can get back to basics and get young, hungry ball players with everything to prove wanting to play in the EPL for the right manager.

Siggy, Llorente, Gomis, Montero and Barrow to name a few will give us the platform to build and cement our status for another 3 seasons.

Don't be afraid of change - be afraid of standing still.

£18-£25m Siggy
£5m Llorente
£5m Gomis
£5m Montero
£5m Barrow

There could be upwards of £40m between that lot. It will also free up huge salaries.

It just makes perfect sense.

I will agree with selling Gomis, Montero and Barrow. But i cannot agree with selling sigurdsson and LLorente. The impact they have had this year, imagine what they can do under a full season with clement.

Selling Siggy and Llorente makes sense in your world - in 99.9% of posters on here (and no doubt other Swans fans wherever they are)

You have not even justified your argument with facts, all you have done is take the facts and twist them to suit your argument (Alternative facts). So basically you have taken the facts ignored them. I would say it is you who is slow. You're the Trump(not a compliment) of planet swans congratulations

He will be gone this summer, we will get maximum value for him now at 27 years old. His transfer value will decrease from 28 years old on.

Gomis will not be sold, FACT. He'll be back up next year, he's of the same ilk as Llorente.
