Spot on. I think that a number of the higher profile players will exit over the next 2weeks as the club increases its attempt to offload the high earners and reduce the wage bill. One or 2 new players will come in, but they will be comparatively low cost and low wage signings. | | | |

As long as we are not going to stick half the under 23s in the side we will be ok.
Tried that in the eighties didn't touch the sides on the way down. | |

Blending 1 or 2 in is ok.
The Championship is a tough league and will need some experienced heads as well. | |

How many have gone now |
Mostly still rumours but form what's been said..
Gone Early: Leon, Rangel, Tammy, Sanches, Ki, Gorre
Sold/Loaned: Fabs, Bartley, Mesa, Baston
Rumoured Sales: Clucas, Fernandes, Mawson, Andre, Jordan, Bony, Naughton
Don't believe all rumours but with our Board wouldn't be suprised to see 15 or so of those 17 gone.
Many of this lot were poor last year but that's huge amount of work to rebuild. Let's hope Potter is better at recruitment than Jenkins and co. |  | | |

Spot on.
As much as I hope we sign a good 5 or 6 players over the next 4 weeks, which I think we will, do we want to see any of the losers stay with us next season?
Fabianski apart, they are all culpable to a pathetic season last season.
Goodbye and good riddance to the Ayews, Ki, Mawson, Bartley and Clucas. Please take Naughton and Routledge with you.
I'd like to keep FF and Amat, as with VDH, Olsson and Roberts, it would have the good make up of a defence. |  | | |

Baffles me why people are saying ‘good riddance’ to our top scorer and best outfield player. There is a reason why JA played for us and McBurnie didn’t but never mind, you lot know best. | |

Naughton is not leaving. Who the f*ck would take him? Surely he wouldn't push for a move for a lower level. And PL clubs wouldn't even consider him as a 3rd choice RB..maybe Cardiff only being sh!t and all with championship mentality.
Mawson,Fernandez,Amat,Jordan 'n' Andre, Bony are as good as gone.
Clucas? I still don't believe the Burnley interest (they were interested last year but after this season there is little chance). 12 m? Surely not. |  |

The first sign of relelation, neither had any intention of staying so your argument is pointless.
If they had said they'd like to stay to help the club back, it would at least show some care for the club that pays them millions of £s to try to rectify the situation that they and a few poor managers caused.
However, 99% of footballers don't care about the club they play for and would also leave.
Fans would like to think that the players care but apart from the obvious few, they don't. | | | |

Spot on regarding Naughton
Can we please pay someone to take him off our hands? I seriously can not bear to watch another game with him in a swans shirt.
I have the displeasure of having Naughton as the closest player on the pitch to where I am sitting for the first 45 minutes. I have never seen someone so scared of the ball in all my life. 9 times out of ten when the opposition was bearing down on us on Naughtons wing you could almost guaranteed the ball would still be crossed into our box.
Premier league or championship, I cannot watch that again. |  |

You'd be suprised how many clubs don't do enough due diligence on player transfers. Look at the rubbish our clowns in charge bought over last few seasons. He's got 6 years PL experience and there's some manager who'll believe they can improve him. | | | |

And at time's he's not as bad as people make out. He was one of our stronger performers through the first half of last season. I know that's relative to complete sh*te, but still. |  | | |

Many comments from previous seasons that replacements were needed for Leon & Rangel (IMO the best performer we had before his injury) No surprise.
Tammy & Sanches - loans so no surprise.
Mesa & Baston (probably Amat) all on loans all happy away from Swansea and keeping them would have been a risk (Baston might have come good at this level) again. - no surprise.
Ki has been running down his contract and rarely showed up (for 2 season) - no surprise
Gorre, overlooked and not up to scratch - no surprise.
Fabianski was going to be nigh on impossible to keep - no surprise
Bartley ha made it known he wanted to leave and couldn't perform for us last season (might have been good at this level and might have been an asset) but - no surprise.
Rumoured
Clucas - just get rid, he was the worst of a very poor team last year,
Fernandes - wants higher level football and even a return to international team.
Mawson - very replaceable (I've never been convinced) but will bring in a profit.
Andre - will want higher level football
Jordan - release the wages.
Bony - will probably stay until January as he is unlikely to attract taker given his medical situation.
Naughton - not could go either way.
Apart from Fabianski, Fernandez & Andre (if you're a fan - Mawson) all of the players mentioned have been shell shocked and it will do us and them good to move on. IMO.
I expect Narsingh, Olson, Carroll, Montero and Routledge to leave the playing squad. Sold, sold, loaned, retired.
If we can't ensure quality let's at least have commitment.
Given Potter's words and the players we've been linked with I'm expecting no more than consolidation next season after a slowish start. [Post edited 17 Jul 2018 11:39]

Don't see any of that last batch going this summer, much as I wouldn't mind seeing the back of any of them. We don't have to revamp the whole squad in one summer. We need to shift what we need to shift to balance the books, which has the added benefit of offloading a load of players I'll be glad to see the back of. If we replace those outgoings with young hungry players either brought in from other clubs or promoted from within, and repeat that process in January and next season then I think we will be in good shape to get back to the prem before the parachute payments run out, and with a better side than we left the prem with. | |

I make it that we have 18 senior players left on the books (in terms of usefulness to the Championship season, really the figure is 17 as Mulder will not play and will be on negligible wages).
Supplemented by;
- McBurnie
- Asoro
- Dhanda
- Grimes
- Fulton
- Govea Merlin
- Roberts
- Harries
- Rodon
- James
- Benda
- Byers
Of the 18 senior players on our books 12 have been linked with moves away.
Those who haven't been linked with moves are;
- Nordfeldt (will play his first full season in our 1st team)
- van der Hoorn (thank f*ck he is staying, our best defender last season)
- Olsson
- Carroll
- Dyer (I like him but he just might be finished at this level)
- Routledge (same as Dyer)
We need to get a move on with the evolution of this squad. |  |

That fact alone beggars belief, he very rarely stops a cross, his tackling is suspect, can’t cross the ball and has one premier league goal in five seasons! | | | |

Well most of us know a lot more than the dross that was served up last season.
Get rid of the lot apart from 1 or 2. A complete shower of pansies with no commitment or backbone.
And on last seasons showing I would have preferred McBurnie to start every game.
What a shambles we were. | |
