Wasn't he played on the wing like at Spurs? I would have thought that was your major problem right there. |
No he wasn't |  |

Spot on. Selling him was never the problem -the players we selected to replace him was.
And we need to stop talking about £45m too - try nearer £37m
Still a great player for us, one of the very best we have ever had. |
Quite. Yet some people just can’t let it go. Quite sad really. He was a great player for us and that’s not debatable (trollable, but not debatable). He’s gone, we move on. In the wrong direction, but that’s a direction of our own making. |  | | |

I did but saiid he was more free kicks than open play assists. Some people were raving like he was as good as Erikaen at spurs. Which he of course wasn't. Fair weather player on some days too. |  |

Football fans in overrating their own player shocker.
Never understood the weird agenda against him. Even in the worst season of his career, he had as many goals as all of our "marquee" summer signings (Bony, Clucas, Sanches and Mesa) combined. |  |

I don't understand how anyone can seriously doubt his contribution to the Swans. Best player of our premier league era and up there with the best of any era. |  |

As soon as a player leaves us they are suddenly not that good..
You can see the little digs on the Mawson thread it's just the way fans like to convince themselves that we are not losing a quality player. |  |

Yea agreed. And in the case of Siggy, although it hasn't worked out for him at Everton, there is absolutely nothing to suggest he wouldn't have still performed for us had he stayed. | |

He would have got us goals and created goals , that would have kept us up easy .
He wanted out
Who can blame him ? | |

He made a big contribution I'm not saying he didn't. Don't I have the right to say "best free kick taker we've ever had" and "not so effective with assists in open play"? | |

Sold Gylfi & Llorente
Bought 70 million replacements
Didn't manage them
Got relegated
Sell established top level performers.. Ayew, Fabianski.
Expecting some to follow them out the door.
Buy in expensive young gambles.
Hopefully we'll finish mid table and rebuild, because we won't go up with our current crop, unless we invest in a few players.
I won't mind finishing mid table | |

Not true mate. Quite a few of us on here have said for a few seasons that in games where we had no set pieces and very little corners games could totally pass siggy by. That’s why he’s never been a top 6/7 player because I’m open play he’s just not at that level. Same with Alfie, I hope he stays but I just don’t think he’s anywhere near the standard he’s made out to be.. yet. No harm in having an opinion on past or present players on a forum. | | | |

Bit like Montero..
If Montero & Siggy could maintain their form etc..
.................Fabianski.................
Rangel..Chico..Williams..Davies
................JDG......Britton.............
Hernandez....Gylfi.....Montero
....................Michu....................
Vorm
Taylor
Fernandez
Ki
Cork
Shelvey
Dyer
Bony
I wonder how this squad would've handled a season In the Prem all in their prime. [Post edited 28 Jul 2018 19:43]

Looking at that list makes me want to cry....especially when you think of the shower of sh*te we bought to replace them. |  |

Just as I was feeling better .
People have favourites or players they hate
Chris hated Gylfi , I m not keen on WR .
I know who contributed more | | | |

i probably would of gone with allen instead of jdg but either way that list in their prime does make you wonder wtf happened to us the last few years |  | | |

Nah, we’re much better of without the useless tvvat. Look how much we’ve benefited from the free-flowing, fast-paced attacking football now he’s left.
Hopefully we’ll build on that and do even better and create and score even more this season. I know it’s hard to believe we could be even better. But without Siggy holding us back, is there any limit to the heights the Swans can soar too? |

I'm astonished at those who are turning their nose at Siggy. He was arguably the best player in the history of Swansea. And we'll probably never see a similar talent wearing the shirt again.
Outstanding performer all around..a true leader in midfield and attack. And our relegation proved that he was invaluable to us. |  |

In fairness my digs at him have been going for a while . Has loads to improve on if he is to become what he thinks he is. |  | | |

So people now realising what was being said all along.
A limited player, good at what he does. But you literally have to play a very limited style and build a team around him, which is not healthy or a good way to go for any club.
It was absolute robbery by us. |  |
