Swansea City gearing up for offers on their star player 28th Jun 2022 14:32
Swansea City are in the firing line of several premier league clubs leading on from our reports in the last few days. The national press have seriously underlined the benefits that Flynn Downes brings to any squad, and the belief is he can step up to the premier league with little problem. 0

Headline mentions our star player but the article seems to be about Flynn Downes. Wrong link?

Downes is a class player.
Easily Premier League standard.
We need to hold out for the best possible price if bids come in for him.
Will be gutted if he goes.

Don't you rate Downes then yesterday you were saying he is not going anywhere and it's just agents doing their jobs.

Now he is not our star player.
He is a very good player though.

It must be hard for some accepting that no PL team has shown any interest in Grimes.

Was it Adrian Mole who posted last week that Grimes had covered for Downes all last season.

One or two looking a bit silly now.

A 1.5 million pound purchase a year ago being touted now as a ten million pound purchase signals development to me💁

Gutted if he goes but even at £6 million it is 4 x what we paid for him.
All the best to the lad.
Hope he stays of course

From the moment Downes walked on to the pitch he looked a class act and one that really should have seen Grimes benched. Downes is that good.
What does Russ do;effective shove him backwards to cover for our goalkeeper who ,staggeringly,is still number 1.
Fisher doesnt look like he hasnbeen developed and Flynn ,IN MY OPINION has developed in spite of Russ not because of him.

Some might disagree

Well he would.

So, Downes has developed despite participating in all RM’s coaching each day, but none of that mattered because he was developing himself ?

Yup, we have to disagree.

Everything good is despite Martin. Everything bad is because of him.

What Perchy's system lacks in, well, almost everything is made up for by the simplicity.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Does go the other way with some people to be fair. Everything positive happening is because of Martin's efforts (falling out with our star strikers made them play better), everything bad is the interference of others (Winter, Paterson's agent turning his head etc.).

Falling out with everyone is great apparently.

Maybe if he can expand his horizons and fall out with all our defence maybe he may manage a top half finish for the first time in his career.

Yep have to disagree.
His improvement is down to Martin.
If he didn't pick him and play him, as well as coach him, how could he possibly improve ?

A good reply and the way opinions should be discussed.
We've had fall outs and will have more but we can do it with some class.

Some others need to get a grip ,take a step back and look into the glass .

I hate this pre season talk.

If it is Downes that goes I just hope the price is good enough that we keep Piroe. If it's right that Obafemi is going nowhere though, I do wonder if we would be better off if we got 15 million for Piroe and kept Downes?

Piroe playing in behind isn't ideal for me, his goal return slowed down when that happened. So is selling Piroe and keeping Downes a better idea? If Martin can get Ntcham properly fit, 90 minutes fit maybe we wouldn't miss Piroe so much? Maybe then we keep Joseph too but use him as a proper striker off the bench tather than play him (and others) out of position.

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

Interesting watching Martinez interview earlier.
Talked about converting Leon to a DM, and about Dorus having a high pass rate.
He highly rated Martin and what he is trying to achieve.
That, from the man who introduced Swansealona, is some tribute

Fancy moving a player out of position and moving a winger to defensive midfield. Questions would be asked by some on here.

We HAD central defenders who were capable so no real need to play Downes there.
Anyway,Winstone apart,some decent exchanges.
