Bailey Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 This would be amazing! Didnt realise Martinez had tried to sign him before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve_E Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 I like him too. Good passing range, can move. Can even cover at the back. And still young at 24, if he does well he'd be an attractive target for a permanent transfer next summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete0 Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 How come Swansea don't want him? He was one of their best players last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_E Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 How come Swansea don't want him? He was one of their best players last year. Michu will likely drop a line to the 10 position now they've got Bony. And they've got De Guzman, Shelvey, Canas, Britton and Pozuelo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only Canas who can play DM and Britton and Shelvey CM. I'd not get rid if I was them. Ki is quality, hopefully we get him on the cheap too, seem's they want rid.

Ki is quality, hopefully we get him on the cheap too, seem's they want rid. They've got Britton and Canas for the holding role, Shelvey and De Guzman for the role next to him and Michu and Pozuelo for the role in the hole. That's enough depth I think, two players for each position. If need be, I think Shelvey could play as the holding midfielder too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 I'm not even sure he was first choice last year as I seem to remember him coming off the bench a lot. Come on Bobby/Bill make this happen! Steve_E 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on Bobby/Bill make this happen! It was reported that he wasn't happy having to fill in at CB for much of last season (in Chico's absence) and him and Laudrup have since fallen out.

SimonButtle Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 shame it's only a loan, this would be a great addition to the midfield, as has been said im surprised they are letting him go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcus jones Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 I will ask some Swansea city season ticket holders what is the score between Laudrup and him later on when I'm out on the pop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 (edited) I really hope we get him, he's the ideal midfielder for the sort of football Martinez will want us to play. With the added bonus of it hopefully meaning Osman becomes a bench player. It's odd that Osman has looked so poor because he's one of the ones I thought would adapt to Martinez's style the best, but he's probably suffered the most so far.

Think Moyes burnt him out last year and his legs are going now. Hope I'm wrong and he comes good again. Matt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 I'll hold my hands up here and admit I've barely seen him play, but when he did I really wasn't impressed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicagoblue Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 Can't really believe Swansea want rid of him. Don't understand how Canas is supposed to be an improvement. In the two Swansea games I've watched this season he's been quite poor, especially with passes over 15 yards. Oh well, hope it comes off, would certainly give us the right kind of options.

marcus jones Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 This ones really a goer chaps, it's a straight fight between us and Sunderland, Swans fans are not really happy with Laudrup's attitude during the summer. Anyway there was some heated exchanges between the two and Ki deffo wants out ASAP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because we're linked with a lot of players who we aren't in for at all (like all clubs). Matt and marcus jones 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibdane Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 I'd welcome him with open arms, but I'm surprised to see him on the outs like the above posts have said. I won't hold my breath, but I will cross my fingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would come to us if we put in an offer of a loan over Sunderland I have been lead to believe, but this only comes from a person who knows Alan Curtis who is on the coaching staff at the club. Seems reliable I would have thought but you never know, this guy has no reason to lie to me though............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should want to come in and compete against the best for a place, not come only if you expect an easy ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To counter your point, was it really a good career move for Scott Sinclair to go to City? There is a balance of going somewhere to challenge yourself, but not going somewhere where you'll never see a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a balance of going somewhere to challenge yourself, but not going somewhere where you'll never see a game. he took a pay day, simple as. A move to improve his career? no chance, though it could be argued he'd be playing with some world class players (more than we have at least) and potentially challenging for silverware.

Lowensda Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 Why anyone would want to go to Sunderland now is beyond me. It'll be a new team every season, as a bare minimum. On loan too. Jeez. Quinn31 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
