Probably the greatest the CH to ever play for us in my opinion.

There CB partnership of Ash with either Jagielka or Funes Mori next year looks good if we can sign a decent striker or two

10M for a 32yr old is good business in my eyes. My concerns are the timing and what the actual board have planned.

Good business for who though?
The 'investors' can do what they like with that.
Shame on HJ and the others... WTF have you done?
I'd rather you left the club completely.

It's just the internet, init.

Williams "leaves" every summer. It's usually his way of getting a pay rise.

I wouldn't be particularly surprised (or disappointed) if this turned out to be the case again.

On the flip side, if (yep I know it's a big one) we replaced with quality, £10m would be a decent enough fee.

Same here.

We've had the best years out of him, but even last season you could see errors and pace issues creeping into his game.

I'd rather him leave on a high than get slated this season for being a liability ðŸ‘

If this turns out to be true and not the usual agent crap, I agree.

He's the heartbeat of the team.Will be a huge loss. Some things are worth more than money in the bank.

If ash goes, I'm surprised he doesn't go to a team offering a last gasp chance of European football, champions league would be something I would want in Ashs position. Even if it was with Celtic or someone.
Maybe none of them want him despite the rumours.

He's gone for the money and maybe a chance of Europa league.
He was never gonna sign for one of the big 4

Well I'm obviously in the minority camp.
Im happy to say thanks and goodbye to Ash. Thanks very much to everton if £10 mill turns out to be the amount paid for him.
I honestly don't rate Ash at all as a captain. A quality defender ( more of a sweeper than out and out cb in my eyes) but no great leader. Just how many times have we seen him drop his head or even pull his shirt over it... He struts around like Billy big bollox causing a lot of unrest and every transfer window we read stories he's off here or there....
No for me he won't be that great of a lose. Lets be honest hes poor in the air and looses his man far too often at set pieces. All bread and butter work for a quality CB. Amat for me given games could/would be a better player. I also think Freddie performs better alongside Amat than he does when paired with Ash.
If and it seems to be a massive if, the club re-invest the money in the squad, I have no problem with this at all.

like previous posters have said no point getting 10 mill 20 mill or even 50 mill its only a good price if money goes back into club for players not to line these c''nts pockets

No bids for Ash according to the club

I wonder who gets their kicks from making up false stories about transfers? Most of them have absolutely no truth behind them. Even if they were true, who is leaking the information and why?

Last season Ash was much better than Fernandez.

A certain agent who used to play for Barry Town linked to a few of our players who get linked with moves every couple of months.

Even if it's agents stirring, they can can information around amongst the clubs and the players. They wouldn't need to do it via the press.

No way Williams is leaving,same for goes for Siggy and Ayew,Jenkins has always said that every deal we do is for the best for Swansea City,to let any of these players leave would be utter stupidity without players of equivalent quality being signed first and they cost serious money,consequently they will not be sold.

From the Mirror

"Sunday People Sport understands he has played his last match for the Swans."

No quotes just "understands"

From the Evening Post

"But sources have claimed Swansea have received no bids for their skipper"

No quotes just "sources"

Now that would be a first

Could be some truth in all the press "exclusives" but so far nothing concrete in any of them

Using the press is the best way to put public pressure on clubs via fans. It's a proven way of doing things. Every good agent does it.
