Dodgyknees Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 To think that Sigurdsson reportedly cost around the same amount, and he has been very influential for Swansea. I would love Sigurdsson here 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderPower_14 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Since the rise of Okore I am content with Vlaar leaving. We'll miss Delph more I reckon. Hopefully we can invest whatever we get for them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Since the rise of Okore I am content with Vlaar leaving. We'll miss Delph more I reckon. Hopefully we can invest whatever we get for them True, if we can get say enough for Lambert to find three £5m players from any Delph and Vlaar money, plus Cleverley then we may find ourselves better off. That said we will probably lose half the team to long term injuries again anyway knowing our luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimzk5 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 In the last few years we've had opportunities to buy sissokho, belhanda, Kiyotake & popov for £3/5million and refused to pay that much but we are happy to pay £7.5million for a player who offers us exactly the same as Westwood. Baffling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno if they wanted to come here, but I distinctly remember being linked with these players and baulking at the asking price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno if they wanted to come here, but I distinctly remember being linked with these players and baulking at the asking price. I remember it too but I think both Sissokho and Belhanda wanted to go where the money was, hence their current playing locations. Kiyotake was more like £7 million if I remember correctly and his agent was taking the piss. Not sure about Popov. Either way though I don't want to sign Cleverley for that price. its bloody stupid, unless of course we have more money to spend....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa89 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Won't 7.5m be the most Lambert has spent on a player? Yes. (I think Benteke may have been 7.8m, not sure). As for new signings apart from Cleverly our current points total means that there'll be no money to spend. Might see a loan come in (hopefully) and probably Bent out on loan for the rest of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dakid007 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 He is buying Cleverly because he is a known quantity whether you think he is impressive or not. When we lose delph if we don't buy cleverly we would then have to make 2 gambles and hope it pays off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
