Jake Bidwell 11:07 - Jan 8 with 2258 views | GixerJack | I don’t know if this has been discussed before but I’m sure I read somewhere that his contract is up at the end of the season. If you were in the boardroom big chair would you be looking to extend his contract now? Personally, I wasn’t that sure of him for a long time but this year he seems to have stepped up a bit so I would certainly be looking to have a chat with his people about terms. | ![](/images/avatars/13593.gif) | | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Which if true and imo a loss , limiting options should a change of formation be needed | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Jake Bidwell on 12:35 - Jan 8 with 2108 views | grabsplatter | Bidwell is a good solid pro, the sort of player all clubs at our level need. Is it a good idea to let him go? I think we can only judge that when we see who's brought in as a replacement. | ![](/images/avatars/11159.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

"Bidwell is a good solid pro" No aurguement from me, but not good enough to get us up, either as a WB or as a FB. | ![](/images/avatars/24294.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

As a squad player he's fine, as a starter in a club looking to get promoted probably not. The sort of player who'd have been let go if we'd have gone up | ![](/images/avatars/11159.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) | Login to get fewer ads

Not the greatest of fans but offers more than manning...also I wouldn't worry about getting up up" for a while.. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Jake Bidwell on 15:47 - Jan 9 with 1546 views | EagleEye | Bidwell is a better full back than Manning, but Manning is better suited to the centre left defending position. It’s no coincidence that since Bidwell has disappeared that we have conceded so many down the left hand side of our defence & Manning has been found wanting for a lot of those goals | ![](/images/avatars/20217.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Bidwell at left back in a back 4 is better | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

But Bidwell at LB in a back 4 wouldn’t be as effective going forward which would mean change in midfield formation as well | ![](/images/avatars/13593.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

That s fine mate Maybe then we could have a midfield that is able to do their jobs instead. 3 at the back with such a waif like Manning is suicide-clearly. Williams and Cooper and Bennett even worse. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Jake Bidwell on 17:02 - Jan 9 with 1495 views | ReslovenSwan1 | I read somewhere he was pining for a return to London. Under those circumstances taking a new deal makes little sense. Martin needs to plan for the future with younger players keen to adapt and be at Swansea for a few seasons. | ![](/images/avatars/27402.gif) |

Better wing back definitely. Manning had a good game at LB yesterday. Manning just can’t play wing back but Bidwell certainly can. Don’t know WTF is going on between Bidwell and Martin ATM. | ![](/images/avatars/8686.gif) |
