davulsukur Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 What the hells happened to him? Had an absolute blinding season to start with then couldn't get a game.
Pedro Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 ...because I called you out for making gratuitous comments that have nothing to do with him being a footballer? Then, you bait me with another gratuitous comment. I thought this thread was about transfers. What on earth are you on about?
Baz Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 What the hells happened to him? Had an absolute blinding season to start with then couldn't get a game. Big fall out I think, dont get the impression he's a great teammate.
davulsukur Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 Big fall out I think, dont get the impression he's a great teammate.Shame (for Swansea I guess) seemed like a really decent player.
Pedro Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 I think he is struggling with some mental illness, I read something about his fall from grace a month or so ago. I thought he'd been sold a couple of years ago.
Backroom DE. Posted November 9, 2015 Backroom Posted November 9, 2015 Michu basically threw a strop when Laudrup left and told the club he wanted out. He then picked up some ankle injuries and had a loan spell at Napoli where he kept getting injured, only played 3 times and didn't score a goal. He apparently wants to go back to Spain, as most of them do eventually, so would expect to see him back there shortly.
Commondore Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 Michu anyone? Been released. http://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/2896/premier-league/2015/11/09/17147082/michu-leaves-swansea-by-mutual-consent?ICID=OP Way out of our league, with or without dodgy ankles. If anything we'll be looking at Championship castoffs or PL/Championship loans. I'd personally like to see some of our more promising youth players be given more of a chance instead, but despite Bowyer's background he hasn't shown any real willingness towards that solution before and probably won't start now.
patrickvalery Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 Does anyone know much about Louis Thompson? I can't link on my phone, but a local article says he's set to join us on loan in January. All I know about him is he's a Norwich player on loan at Swindon and he's a midfielder.

I'm not sure Michu is out of our league to be honest, heard he could be going to a 3rd tier Spanish side. If he is willing to play on a 3rd tier wage then surely he's worth a look, on trial at least.
JHRover Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 I just don't possibly understand the 'loan to buy' concept. Olsson is out of contract in the summer. No doubt whoever takes over will have a decision to make on whether to offer him a new one. If Derby want him in January they can pay for him. I can't understand why Rovers would allow him to leave on loan, forfeit a possible fee, and see him leave on a free transfer in the summer.
bluebruce Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 Derby interested in Markus Olsson Why do clubs keep trying to loan our first team players? We really need to start tying up our better assets to longer deals. Clearly we've learned nothing from Hoilett and King. I haven't checked all the facts, but I suspect we have quite a few players getting a bit too close to the ends of contracts, as I haven't seen many articles about renewals in the last two seasons.
G Somerset Rover Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 I don't understand the loan to buy concept, but their gaffer would know him well so it's certainly feasible. Let's hope whomever our new manager is gets chance to get his legs under the table before our remaining jewels are sold.
roverandout Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 That last sentence just made me squirm!
bluebruce Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 http://www.irishmirror.ie/sport/soccer/transfer-news/sheffield-wednesday-want-blackburns-jordan-6834886 I resent the sentence in there that says 'now Wednesday will complete a move for the striker'...will? Think we'd like some say in that. Though from the rest of the article I suspect it was just a slip.
Dunnfc Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 One name ... Tokelo Rantie. - Very pacy striker like Modou Barrow but he was omitted from the Bournemouth 25 man squad. Loan Until january 1st?

Ewooduknow Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 If koita isn't the right partner for Rhodes then Lambert needs to look for someone that will be, and fast. A targetman would be my preference.
Dunnfc Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 Kramaric and Kozak at Leicester and Villa don't appear to be getting a look in? Understandably if Kantie played at NUFC then maybe he's covering for the awful injuries sustained to the Bournemouth front line this year.
Neal Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 Kramaric and Kozak at Leicester and Villa don't appear to be getting a look in? Both great shouts.
Blue Cabbage Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 That Krmaric looks a right handful, I'd be all over that if possible
