What do you think? on 18:53 - Jul 24 with 5220 views | Tom1912 | If the window shut now, we'd have a very good starting eleven with decent depth in some areas but not enough in others. In an ideal world we'd sign Payet, De Guzman, a DM and RB and we'd pretty much be there. However, I can't see us getting 4 more signings through. I would have thought a centre midfielder will come in at the very least. | | | |
What do you think? on 19:02 - Jul 24 with 5197 views | C_jack | If we can hold on to Wilf then it's almost better than a new signing. RB and DM primarily. Maybe a cheap streetwise LB to add for cover with Fulton. | |

I'm not sure we really need jdg now. I think a DM and rb are more important. Ideally I'd take all three and possibly that streetwise lb. We'd be strong then. | |

Maybe so, if jazz and tiendalli were up to the job. | |

What do you think? on 21:12 - Jul 24 with 4845 views | ItchySphincter | JDG in, Canas out hopefully. A.N. Other DM would be a priority. I wouldn't be against trying Ki at centre half and pushing Amat to fullback if we can't sign a RB. | |

Yes I think so too and it's probably a case of replacing them if they go. What's the point really? We're going to end up with equal quality/ability if we do that and we'd have to shell out for the privilege. Pointless. | |

What? You'd rather stick with jazz and dt than buy a good rb! Would you buy a nice car and drive around on the rims? Jazz is not good enough. Tiendalli is ok for occasional cover, but not a regular starter. If Rangel gets seriously injured, we'll have a problem. | |

Amat would be run ragged against a quality pacy winger. Ki played against Bradford but forget him being any kind of defensive player. Box to box (probably his best position) or maybe AM but he'll struggle at DM or defence generally with the pace the prem has. [Post edited 24 Jul 2014 22:18]

A CDM is absolutely vital for us this season. We've overworked Leon and he really needs to play fewer games this season. I would applaud the board for spending 8-12 million to get a fantastic, athletic, physically imposing , aggressive and skillful CDM to take the club to the next level. If Leon gets injured we're screwed as none of the other candidates bar Canas have the nous to play the position as we need it. | |

Mbia is a free agent at the moment. Someone will surely snap him up by the end of August. | |

What do you think? on 22:45 - Jul 24 with 4537 views | Jokeren1943 | A super defensive midfielder would be essential for Swansea. We need speed and power on that position. Would be a perfect time for Britton to train a young lad for a year or too. With Guzman and Shelvey on the central midfield we will manage. But a new creative midfielder would be nice when Pablo an Puzuelo are gone. Tiandelli can play both side, but we need a fine backup there too. Rangel is getting older. | | | |

Given what I said would make us excellent at the back I neglected to mention the more forward players . If we keep Bony, get someone like Saviola, add Payet in addition to Gylfi and Montero and keep hold of DeGuzman and our other players (specifically Routs, Nath and JJS) we'll be a formidable outfit this season. | |

Based on what I've seen Tiendalli is little better than Richards. With Rangel knocking on a new RB is an absolute priority for me. Probably the biggest hole remaining in the squad. I hear the arguments about a CDM. I think the club still see Ki as filling that role if needs be. His future may determine what happens there.

Is Ki slower than Leon?I would have thought the skill of a good DM is positioning. | | | |

I've seen Tiendalli have a few good performances, so we know he has the ability in there. It's up to the coaching staff to make sure he does it all the time. (Maybe a job for our new sports psychologist!). I haven't seen anything from Richards to indicate he has the ability to play at this level. | | | |

Cant see any of our players being over worked this season. If we go out of the league cup early we will only be playing one match a week until Christmas. I am all for having cover but players have to play as well, we don't need such a big squad this season. | | | |
