I'm expecting pelters for this but I do think there will be serious interest in the lad come transfer window time.And with 30 m in the bank and Pozuelu loitering in the background then maybe it doesn't sound as crazy as first thoughts.
Is there a case that we've become to reliant on Michu and our whole game revolves around him it seems.Could it be time for a shake up and a change of personnel up there or am i way off the mark.
Sensible replies would be appreciated as I don't fancy a slanging match this morning.

A lot of uncertainties in January - where are we in the Premier League, what's happening in the Europa League. If we were safe (or pretty much) in the PL and out of the EL then I suppose it could happen if a club came in with that sort of dosh and he wanted to go.
Agree with others, though, that it's much more likely in the summer, particularly if ML decides he's not sticking around. | | | |

Rip is contract up,and double is wages if any player is worth keeping its him.If he does leave hope all the money used for rebuilding. | | | |

From a fans point of veiw no chance, I know its a lot of money but for 30m we would be selling one of the best players in the league and no doubt the best player ever to wear a swans shirt. With that money we could go into the market to try and improve the squad but would be unlikely to find a better player than Michu. Plus his work rate and eagerness to win the game and the ball back is a rare trait in a football these days rember nowich home last season and how keen he was to get the game restarted at every stop in play, St gallen home taking a boot in the head would of finished the majority of players games. I personally feel if we sold Michu even with 30m in the bank we would be a poorer team for it. Any player we went in for would be over valued by the selling club too knowing we have that sort of money. | | | |

So sell him for £30M and the Trust can have £6M in the bank, great | |

The way I see it, the amount of games he plays and the way he plays he's going to be knackered by Xmas.
He will have hopes of a world cup place, so he will be keen to keep his form up, if he goes to, e.g. Man Utd., he may end up on the bench and lose out, so I think he will stay with us till the summer. | | | |

Where has anyone suggested cashing in on him?
Most people have stated they want him to stay, but acknowledged that if an offer came in around the £30m mark and he wanted to go, then he'd be gone. Which is realistic.
As Uxbridge says, as fans we want him to stay no matter what because he's brilliant, but you have to take a step back and see it realistically.
Relegation fodder without him? Yeah we were so close to relegation in the 11/12 season weren't we? Good grief. | |

Next summer I expect Laudrup will be off and therefore so will Michu anyway. At least a few players that came for Laudrup will leave with him too - unfortunately.
It's always going to be that way for us as we are not one of the financial heavyweights - our focus just has to be this season. If somehow we finished top 6 this season or won another trophy then maybe some of those big names would consider staying. | | | |

I'd be mildly flabbergasted if we ever paid out a £30m dividend. And by that I mean I'll be heading down there with a baseball bat! | |

Interesting point about the 11/12 season there. When you look at the squad we had that season, most of us would be terrified that we'd be in trouble now with that lot. The fact that we got 47 points with that squad is amazing really and Rodgers did a fantastic job without doubt.
Last season's squad was infinitely better in terms of quality than Rodgers' squad yet we only managed 46 points. Yeah, we won the League Cup and tailed off after Wembley but 46 points was a bit disappointing considering the group of players we had. Or was it? Maybe the 47 points the year before was way overachieving with that squad and 46 last year was about right? | |

Realism is the 60 odd million per year that comes with staying in the BPL. You are entitled to your opinion, but mine is that sans Ash and Michu we would be in the proverbial. In time, as I said, replacements may come through, but that looks some way off. | | | |

We were on for 55+ points last season. the last 10 games the form dipped dramatically. This season again will be tough becuase of Europe. But Rodgers did do an incredible job. His total possession football acted as a form of defence (they couldn't hit us when we had the ball) and I remember us giving the likes of Tottenham better games than we have under Laudrup. We try to be very attacking now - which is good, but teams can split our defence easier now. | | | |

Reading this I can't imagine how some people are going to cope if Muchu gets injured,God forbid he'd fractured his skull or something against St Gallen the Coed would be fully booked.
Just for the record the last time Michu missed a league game we won and that was with f*cking Schecter upfront | |

No.
What good is money to spend when we can only get stuff for them that is worse than what we are selling to get money?
Is it a football club that strives to do as good as possible, or is it a commercial company that aims to earn money?
I hope it's the former and not the latter, cause that is the story I 'bought into' when I decided I wanted to support the swans rather than any of the other clubs in the premier. | |

Lets cut to the chase, Michu was unheard of before he came to us. Since joining he's been brilliant and I wouldn't like him to go. Playing for us and the way we play suits him down to the ground, but saying that how many players who left the Swans have gone on to better things ? Other clubs don't play our way look at Lee Trundle (God) went to Bristol City and they didn't play to his strengths, so he may not be such a success whoever he may move to. - Best stay with us and enjoy the ride. | | | |

with all due respect I think Michu will do good for any team,
his very hard working, and likes to create the game, thats why he is so different from so many other players, his finishing is superb, and he scored 15 goals for rayo vallecano as midfielder that says a lot about him. | |

Yes.......although your analogy does have a couple of potential minor flaws. Mostly so when you consider that Michu is a world class player called up to the best team in the world, and LT10 is a lower league journeyman that was out of his depth in the championship, where he had no real strengths to play to. Don't you think calling him 'God' tends to undermine the credibility of your position a little bit too? Although watching him try and run when he came back to us, did make me think 'Jesus'.
Michu would fit in like a dream in most teams, but I agree he should stay with us. | |
