I think most scousers don't think that Joey has contributed much to their success.
Definitely not worth 15 million, but enjoyed seeing him put the fat Chilean on his arse today. |  | | |

Thing is Liverpool came knocking and Joe wanted to go. The club was powerless to resist. |  | | |

Good little player, great at what he does but generally limited going forward and vastly overrated by our supporters at the time. Most have since seen sense.... That £15million is up there with Michu as one of the boards best transfer deals |  | | |

To turn down £15m for Joe Allen would have been a dereliction of duty on the part of those running Swansea City.

Why does someone's nationality mean anything?
We got a fantastic deal for Joe Allen, and the funding of his sale helped us to our first major trophy and to improving the squad significantly in the last three transfer windows.
We've got Ben Davies, who is a bigger talent than Allen. He's accomplished at Premier League level at the age of 20, whilst Allen wasn't an integral part of our Championship team at that age. Can he not be a super talent, and a player that the team was to be built around in the future?
We've got Jonjo Shelvey, aged 21. Already played over 150 league games in the football league, remarkable at that age, and becoming a bigger and bigger player for us. Can he not be a super talent, and a player that the team was to be built around in the future?
We've got Jordi Amat, aged 21. Highly rated in the Spanish U21 squad, and improving in his performances for us, voted in the team of the Europa League group stage and on the back of a man of the match performance against Norwich. Can he not be a super talent, and a player that the team was to be built around in the future?
We've got Alex Pozuelo, aged 22. Somebody who offers us a lot of skill and flair, and has made an impact in the final third of the pitch in both the league and Europa League. He's featuring and impressing more and more as the season goes on. Can he not be a super talent, and a player that the team was to be built around in the future?
I understand that some fans do want to see young players in the first team, but we've got a lot more young talent at the club now then we did back before Laudrup took over. |  |

Shelvey for Joe I'd not be all that sad about, another 10m on top? Yes please. |  |

Joe Allen is great. Good little footballer when used properly, nice kid, well spoken. Never, ever worth close to £15m and as Clasey said it would be poor business to turn it down. |  |

Mr Allen your son is a credit to you but the club could not turn down 15 million and Joey quite obviously wanted to go
I think he will wear the swans shirt again one day mr Allen. | |

Don't think a single person has said he's bollocks, the only comments I can see are those saying he's a good player but we couldn't turn down £15 mill?
What was that about re-writing history...;) | |

WTF? Joe Allen was in the first team way before he was 20. To compare Ben Davies is wrong, Davies HAD to come in as Taylor was injured and we couldn't get another player other than free agents, which is when Tiendalli came in. Allen was just brought into the squad. I agree over the last few years it's only Allen and Graham I feel gutted about that they left. [Post edited 21 Dec 2013 18:55]
