£40m Bid Made For Sigurdsson

[Chewbacca]

Hope they keep him AND get relegated

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Part of me thinks fair enough for sticking to your guns, part of me thinks they're absolutely mental as he clearly wants to move and £45m is huge money. They should be accepting that for all parties sake. Be inclined to move on now.

 

[Deulofeumygod]

Do one Swansea

 

[gmb]

Do we actually believe that a decision has been made on this newest offer?

 

[Gladystweet]

Testicles to this.

Yup. It's getting silly now.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Is there a better realistic target. Almost certainly not.

We pay and improve or move on and suffer.

 

[Kev The Rat]

Way I see it - when the board step up to the plate and back the manager with funds to go and buy a player he wants, at a price that now seems acceptable in the current market, it should be embraced.

For many years we have sat and watched like the paupers at a party everybody thinks we are lucky to be invited to.

Willing to bet the majority of people saying "walk away", would be slaying the board and calling Mosh a fraud if we weren't trying to compete in this ridiculously over priced market.

We would embarrass ourselves if we walked away for the sake of 5m on a 50m fee.

 

[windymiller]

Nah. Outside us it's only the money no object shiek and oligarch owned clubs getting ripped off.

The dildo brothers spent £40m on Arnautovic and Hernandez. A 28 year old scoring 10 goals a season at Stoke and a 29 year old tap in merchant. Fees have gone nuts this summer.

 

[hktoffee]

Really reckon we should just say "take it or leave it" at this point. Can they really afford to keep him with a sulk on?
.

We defo need the player to force the move now. Swansea are risking it. They can relegate and get half of the current price we offer next summer.

 

[Wayno]

If we're going to pay the £50m in the end, just pay it. Statement of intent and we get him training ASAP

Bet we end up signing him after the league starts for £50m anyway and don't have him for the first few games

 

[Kev The Rat]

Is there a better realistic target. Almost certainly not.

We pay and improve or move on and suffer.

Completely agree. The top tier world class players might cost 50m but actually getting them to come here would prove near impossible.

 

[jal123]

Who's arsed how much he costs, if big Ron wants him then cough up.

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

I expect he will put a transfer request in.

That is what this is about now.

Having refused to go to the USA it is obvious that he will move. Same thing is happening with VVD. Players have a lot of power these days even when they have long contracts. Shame for the fans who idolize them but we have been on the receiving end enough times.

At least Gylfi hasn't belittled Swansea every chance he gets like our old Belgian bell did to us.

 

[ijjysmith]

I've got just about Arnie Mr Freeze gif going ready for when he signs.

Swansea...

 

[evilwebby]

Sorry, £50m is ridiculous. He's not a world-beater, and his resale value will only go down.
Better we keep our money and target other players. Don't tell me there isn't better value out there.. £50m will get you 99% of midfielders in europe.
