I hope somebody from the Liberty is going to come out and justify this loan signing. In what universe does Fer add anything to our squad?

I wonder which genius at our club pulled this joker's name out of the hat? Seriously guys. If our scouting system is saying that this is the sort of signing we need , then we're in really deep doo-doo.


You have put yourself on the line with this one. Could be bumped on Saturday.

He adds an option, and the manager will be thinking another option on top of what I have is better than no option at all.

It's been mentioned he thinks he is a number ten. Well if that is the case he won't shift Gylfi from the side, but may give Ki a kick up the jacksy as has been mentioned.

It is called getting in a player as cover, we already have mid field players, but not much backup for them.

I have no connection with the club, other than handing over my hard earned 400-odd quid every year. However I see the following attributes which no other player in the squad offers in one package:
- he can spot a forward pass
- he can hit a cracking shot
- he can place a shot in the corners
- he can head the ball
- he can beat a man
to this extent he adds an attacking threat, similar to Shelvey in some respects, or dare I say it, to Michu.
If he turns out to be a complete lemon, so be it.
Give to guy a chance.

I'd be so happy to be proved wrong. We're all Swans supporters after all. I'm not holding my breath though. Tiendalli was a Dutch international, wasn't he?

Fer may play a part In keeping us up. He won't play a part in sending us down as we're not going down.

Is Steve McLaren big enough to handle that mish-mash of money, expectation and ego? I honestly don't think so.

We do things differently at a Swansea City. Even if a tight majority of our fans don't get it or get how we got here in the first place.

The orthodox are always orthodox, regardless of the orthodoxy.

The Eredivisie is full of bad footballers, and Dwight Tiendalli has caps for Holland.


Oops, good spot on the Holland thing. Dwight has 2 caps apparently !
Dwight also went from Feyenoord to Twente as did Leroy Fer
It'll be fine.

He's a decent signing given money is tight.

We need cover in midfield, he's a capable PL player. Not spectacular but did anyone expect us to go and spend millions and millions on a centre midfielder?

Also, offers something a bit different to the other CMs on our books.

Not seen a lot of him but what I have a bit of a hot and cold player.

With 15 games to play not sure how much of a part he'll play but if he can perform for 5 games helping us to results then he will have paid back the loan fee.

And Tiendalli never really let us down.

Did a cracking job in shoring up the left when Taylor was struggling against Januzaj up at Old Trafford (where we won 2-1).

Towards the end Tiendalli did a good job for us when called upon.

But at the start and when he was appearing semi-regularly he was awful.

Why is that relevant?

Could just as easily pick a player for Holland who has been outstanding and compare to him.

Yes all Dutch internationals are shyt because Holland didnt qualify for the Euros. Errrrrr.

Talking about Tiendalli isn't relevant to a digression about Tiendalli?

I'm not going to stand idly by when someone implies that Dwight didn't let us down on occasion. Poor player who had a few good games for us to his credit.

No talking about whether or not Tiendalli was or was not any good is of no relevance to Fer. You started the Tiendalli digression by stating that some Dutch internationals are bad therefore ...

There is a difference between getting the odd cap (all nations have strange anomalies) and being a regularly selected international who has been chosen for the biggest tournaments.

We already had Gylfi and Ayew who can play the No 10 role with Paloschi up top. Then two from Cork, Ki and Britton to play the base of midfield.

Fer coming in to provide cover for these positions is fine in my opinion. He wouldnt need to be called upon every week but could hopefully make a contribution when needed.

They haven't even qualified for the next big tournament.

The Dutch national side is no longer the powerhouse it once was. Being a bit-part player for them is no particular mark of quality. Their current first team would struggle in the Premier League with its mix of fading talents, decent-but-unremarkable Premier League players, and Eredivisie "stars" (Kongolo is as poor a defender as I've seen playing international football).

If you can't see the relevance of the comparison that's your failing.

Finished 3rd in most recent world cup.

He played in that world cup and has 11 caps as well as numerous caps for their 21s team.

You are just determined to find fault (as evidenced by you trying to prove how bad players from the Italian 21s team that Paloschi played for were the other day - your words by the way).

If you're such an expert in Italian football, Dutch football and the championship.
God only knows why the club don't employ you to be honest.


Sad.

That Italian u21s side is remarkable for the level of quality represented through it.

Look at most youth sides 5/10 years on and it's a job to recognise half the names in there.

The thing that is annoying is that you look at the experience that Guidolin and his assistants have in the game (may not have been as relevant for the last lot!) and someone on here reckons he's better placed to judge our two signings than they are, because he's watched a bit of Skys overseas football coverage.

It's like saying that you watch a bit of formula 1 and play driving games on your xbox so know more than Lewis Hamilton.

I wish some of our 'fans' would sod off back to supporting Man Utd or Chelsea to be honest - too many only give a crap about what supporters of other teams think. Ooh - Liverpool fans think we've made a good signing, I feel much better about myself. Insecure morons.

Watching world football doesn't make someone "itk", but I guess it might seem that way to some around here who only ever watch one club.
