If true, could be the end for Michu and Bony. | |

Fair point. Can't argue with that. | |

If, and it's only an if however much speculation there is (which basically always amounts to every news source quoting the original) Gomis signs, then isn't it more likely to be as a replacement to Michu than to Bony?
I would imagine that Michu's fee plus weekly wage would amount to pretty close to Gomis signing on fee plus weekly wage and they are roughly the same age I think?
Seems more likely that Michu may go given various rumours rather than us replacing Bony who I'd imagine will stay (irrespective of his somewhat annoying agent) unless we get a really silly offer (and I don't think £19m is it).
I wouldn't be surprised to see Michu go to somewhere like Napoli and us bring in Gomis for pretty much breakeven on the deal. | | | |

Depends how you view Michu. If you view him as a striker then aye. If as a midfielder, which I do, means we have another vacancy to fill. Maybe Gylfi's the Michu replacement if that's the thinking. | |

That was my initial point. | |

I think that if it becomes an article of faith that we cannot have two experienced, capable strikers, such as Bony and Gomis, in the squad at the same time then our time in the Prem will be short. There is a kind of arrogance in the idea that we can survive season after season without investing in depth like our competitors do. .Even if we just play one up front and Bony stays fit, there are going to be an awful lot of games when we need to try something different. The leading teams often used to have four front-line strikers and switch the pair regularly. Some are saying we can't even afford one pair. By the way I class Michu as a midfielder, and I would see him as further insurance (somebody who can be moved forward) in case of injuries and ACN absences. | | | |

Michu's a funny one - on one hand I agree that he's a midfielder, but on the other hand he is not really a midfielder that (to this point) has shown he can play with Bony in that 'Pablo' mould.
Don't get me wrong - I love Michu, but him and Boy together just don't seem to work (albeit they haven't had long to get it to work). He did seem to work though with Luke Moore, so maybe it's just time.
I was more thinking in terms of 'attacking player' however classed, and wages etc being similar I would guess (I believe / assume Michu to be one of our top two paid players). Be interesting to see how it all pans out though. | | | |

He was great for us in our first PL season but we were newbies and he suited Brendan's tactics brilliantly. Now we're choosers and not beggars I think we want to go for a Ravel Morrison type player really. To me we should be looking at more dynamic players and I think we've got better AM's in Michu (when fit) , Pablo and JDG. | |

I think Gylfi is better than Morrison. Could Wilf suffer though, in the same way is DG10 did? I don't think so. | |

It's Wikipedia though Alan.
I once got banned from there for writing an article about a ref who got arrested for corruption and showing a lack of regard for the laws of the game after our first Europa home game. It was then widely reported on here as fact before getting removed.
You probably edited that entry yourself. It's well known you're not as stupid as you would have us believe. | |

Oh yes! I'd forgotten all about our pal Duarte Gomes. Was half expecting him to be at the World Cup! The most inept performance I have ever witnessed from an official! | | | |

I agree. You don't even have to look at big clubs. Hull city had 4 strikers - Shane long, Sone Aluka, Matty Fryatt and Jelavic in their squad last season. Having 2 quality strikers is a necessity at this level. It shouldn't mean one has to leave and we get another below par loan like the last 2 seasons. | | | |

Gylfi isn't as good as Morrison Sunsh. And he's a lightweight. We need to be imposing ourselves physically on oppo midfields and Gylfi is a wee bit frail dude | |

i would love to have Gylfi back as he was one of my favorite players i've ever seen play for swans. imagine the capabilities of a midfield with Ki, JJS, and Gylfi. would be lots of great long range shooting. | | | |

I want a different type of MF than we already have though Nels.
Morrison is the type to dribble through defences with ease and that's what we've been sorely lacking IMO | |

Ignore all this transfer speculation. Week before world cup, we were linked with everyone. When the world cup started all the transfer speculation disappeared and media were filling their columns up with England this and England that. Now England are out of World Cup transfer speculation has started again because the interest in the world cup has declined slightly in the UK. | |

Cant see anyone coming in for michu as he only had 1 good season, and would be a gamble after his injury or should I say ankle arthritis.
We wont sell fo less then 4 mill and I dought anyone would take the chance on more.
On bony its a strange one.
The more he does in the wc the more intrest will come.
As of yet he aint done much. | | | |
| Gylfi and Gomis..... on 20:48 - Jun 23 with 1607 views | Oldjack |
Michu will have to prove himself all over again after his horrendous last season like you say it would be foolhardy for anyone to take him on atm
Bony's agent is touting him around ,i hate money grabbing agents | |

Just be glad his agent aint paul ince.
But I agree agents are scum and somthing should be done about them.
But at the end of the day we hold all the cards as he still has a few years left (unless off course there is something in his contract that allows him to walk should a club meet what he has written in to his contract) | | | |

I agree Alan but we've had one season out of Michu and one season out of Bony,I'm sure we'll cope we have in the past. | |

Just spoke to a French colleague at FIFA and he didn't know anything about the Gomis transfer but he did say he was a top player. Not quick and not technical but a goal machine. | |
