    How could anyone be anything but pessimistic with this club?

    Because for once it looks like Levy is actually backing the manager, buying players in positions we need and getting our big name players to sign new deals but you folks are still not happy. Chin up, our bad season is over.

    Anyone here on twitter? I'm not but I saw a screen shot on facebook of the tweets that followed the Rose signing on our official twitter account. God help Danny Rose if he tweets... his confidence will be rock bottom now. No wonder most players think the fans are arse holes.


    His still sh*t though.

    I wouldn't mind this transfer happening:
    http://www.southwales-eveningpost.co.uk/Swansea-City-boss-Garry-Monk-admits-tracking/story-22048834-detail/story.html

    Would be great if another swap+cash was made with Bony going the other way


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,910 ✭✭✭Sugarlumps


    Naughton, he's been found out at this level. All too prone to costly mistakes, there's really been no improvement in him whatsoever.

    Can't see Swansea selling Bony, it would leave them incredibly short what with Michu gone. In fairness, there hasn't been a peep out of Bony either.

    I can't see it happening either, but it would be great :D

    Would anyone be worried that maybe why Dawson has stalled and we signed up rose is that vertonghen is leaving

    I think Dawson just isn't too keen on joining the likes of Hull and wants to wait to see if a better offer comes in.

    Secondly, he is due a testimonial soon and wants to stay for that.

    Thirdly, it's happened the last 2 seasons in a row that we wanted to sell him and he ended up being a regular for the season. He probably fancies trying that one more time.

    And for that he must be respected and appreciated.

    If Poch tells him that he will not be a first team regular, then the club shouldn't be trying to get rid of him if he wants to stay and try fight for his place.

    He'll give his all for the shirt and would be an ideal captain on a cold wet Thursday night in the Europa League.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,837 ✭✭✭same ol sh1te


    I'm the same, I'm happy for Dawson to stay as long as he's happy to be backup CB if Poch sees him as being that. He's been a valuable player in the past, pity his legs are gone. Naughton is another story......I'd offer him on a free

    Wow, my whole attitude to Rose has just changed, Rose: "We’ve brought in Ben Davies now and I’m hoping he can improve me".

    Tottenham News @TottenhamLatest 7s
    Southampton boss Ronald Koeman has told SSN that Morgan Schneiderlin has not asked to leave Southampton.

    It's not like we badly need him, we have Sandro, Capoue and Dembele


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,946 ✭✭✭SuprSi


    Yeah and is he that much of an upgrade on any of them, especially for the prices being quoted?

    Not an upgrade, the only advantage is that he's already coached in the system Poch wants us to play


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,811 ✭✭✭LostArt

    He's a much better play maker / passer than any of our current lot

    I'd love if we got him but don't think we will.

    He's a great tackler, is a better passer than Sandro and moves the ball much quicker than Dembele.

    He's tailor made for the pressing game Poch wants.

    Look like Schneiderlin rumours not going away

    @HotspurRelated: .@BenSmithBBC understands there is an outline agreement from Tottenham Hotspur to sign Morgan Schneiderlin. #THFC http://t.co/UxGtp77eEK

    4 years ago we were lining up Van der Vaart, god we've fallen a lot.

    It's a nice change to be the poachers for once

    More Twitter on the Argie defender Musacchio


    @HotspurLane: Argentinian reports emerging that Spurs have had a €19M bid accepted for Villereal defender Musacchio. #THFC http://t.co/M706Iek5He

    ITK stuff...

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,284 ✭✭✭DubPerryman


    More...
    not much itk floating around, ive only been able to find these two minor bits

    storts on naughts: Likely to go, yes.
    storts on jan: New deal will be signed soon


    Been told the club are confident that MS will become a Spur, but may have to wait until the start of the season to save the face of the Southampton chair "they will both be here at the start of the season" comment. CB is complicated but expect a 1st teamer in by end of window and expecting Verts to sign on the dotted line early next week.

    Other targets such as Jay Rod and H Moreno will probably have to wait until January. A number of loans lined up for outgoings and at least one midfielder and one defender to be sold.

    Potential defensive squad


    Walker/Fredericks --- Dawson/Kaboul/Vertonghen/Chirches/Dier/Velkjovic --- Rose/Davies

    Maybe another senior centre back with pace required?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,284 ✭✭✭DubPerryman


    ITK on the aforementioned defender...
    The Goat heard last night that our interest in Musacchio is real and that barring anything unforseen, a deal is 'close'.

    Does anybody know much about him?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,284 ✭✭✭DubPerryman


    Apparently Mussachio has been kept out of the Villareal squad today.... After we'd submitted a £21m bid.

    Is he a centre half?

    Yes. Can also play RB.

    He was the club's player of the season last year.

    He'd be some signing along side Vertogen but if we sign him I'd say Vertogen to Barca is around the corner

    Ye reckon, i reckon he'd play with Jan, with kaboul rotating, and daws and the roma would be sold
