Besic 11:19 - Jul 8 with 20825 views | swanseacityfan | Reprezentativac Bosne i Hercegovine Muhamed BeÅ¡ić po svemu sudeći naredne sezone će igrati u engleskoj Premier ligi. Naime, kako saznajemo, danas popodne bi se trebala donijeti konaÄna odluka o njegovom transferu. Sport.ba saznaje kako je ekipa Swansea juÄer predala službenu ponudu na adresu Ferencvarosa i to u visini od 4,4 miliona eura. Swansea je BeÅ¡iću ponudio ugovor na Äetiri godine, prema kojem bi reprezentativac Bosne i Hercegovine godiÅ¡nje u ovoj ekipi zaraÄ‘ivao 2,5 miliona eura. Danas popodne bi se ovaj transfer trebao finalizirati, ali kako saznajemo, svi detalji su već dogovoreni, te su ostale samo formalnosti. Osim Swansea, jedinu konkretanu ponudu BeÅ¡ić je imao i od Evertona, ali ona je finansijski bila daleko slabija, pa su u Ferencvarosu odbili ekipu sa Goodisona. BeÅ¡ić bi do kraja ove sedmice trebao i službeno postati novi igraÄ Swansea. Translates to : Representative of Bosnia and Herzegovina Muhamed Besic apparently next season will play in the English Premier League. In fact, as we learned this afternoon should make a final decision on his transfer. Sport.ba learned that the team of Swansea yesterday submitted a formal bid to address Ferencvaros and in the amount of 4.4 million euros. Swansea is BEÅ IĆ offered a contract for four years, according to which the representative of Bosnia and Herzegovina in the year this team earned 2.5 million euros. Afternoon to this transfer should be finalized, but as we found out, all the details have been agreed, and the only other formalities. Apart from Swansea, the only concrete offer Besic had from Everton, but she was far weaker financially, so the Ferencvaros team refused to Goodison. BeÅ¡ić by the end of this week should officially become a new player Swansea. | |

Besic on 16:33 - Jul 8 by monmouth | I suspect the cap hit the escalator when Michu got a new contract and Pablo signed, then the arm twist to get Wilf probably dynamited it to kingdom come, followed by Gomis the Skipper and now maybe a few others in the pipeline. I still trust the board to live within our means but it looks more and more (perhaps because the Wilf gambit was a success-thank fack) like they have realised now that continued success means we're not quite a corner shop any more. I hope a fair chunk is still performance related and the relegation clauses still exist. |
Agreed, I have been a critic of the board over the Laudrup sacking and even the Monk appointment, but I have no doubt in my mind they will not put our future in jeapordy with massive financial packages which are beyond our means. I do believe last year showed we needed freshening up, and we needed to spend on new players. Fair play to them, they are doing just that. With Michu, Canas and Poz off and maybe Vorm and Davies that will balance the books nicely. | | | |

The former Valencia player has only a year to run on his Swansea contract, and has been linked with a move to Michael Laudrup’s new Qatari club Lekhwiya.

If besic and montero are coming in and Pablo wants to leave, makes sense to recoup as much as we can | |

Besic on 16:21 - Jul 8 by DwightYorkeSuperstar | I wasn't of the belief we were capable of offering £16m / 4 year packages. It appears the days of 'salary caps' and all that stuff is in the past for Swansea City now. |
So, let's get this clear..... Fail to sign players = they won't play for Monk Sign players = Club paying massive wages Ignoring whether or not anyone is actually earning the sort of money you mention, are you of the belief that we should be paying big money? Do you think the Club is over-paying for players? Why shouldn't a 'salary cap' move to reflect the Club's revenue? Should it have remained the same as it was in, say, 2011? | | | |

This is my final post on the matter. I do not believe that Garry Monk being our manager had any influence on these players coming to sign for Swansea City. They came for the financial package and a chance to play in the Premier League. We could have Alan Tate, Kenny Jackett, Brian Flynn or even Phil Sumbler managing us. It wouldn't have mattered. Garry Monk doesn't have a big enough reputation in world football to attract players solely because he is the manager. Anyone who thinks these players are coming here because of him is being silly and blinded by their love of the man. (Just to clarify I have little problem with Garry being manager. I will wipe the slate clean and hope we push on next season under his management) | |

I certainly don't think anyone is coming here desperate to play for Monk and I agree that money is the driver. Where we differ is on the matter of whether Monk being manager would put players off - you have previously said that he would, I disagree. | | | | Login to get fewer ads

I don't recall saying Garry being manager would put off players from coming here. If I did then I was mistaken. I believe I said that Garry would not attract players here, unlike Laudrup where players came here with him being the manager arguably the key reason to do so. | |

Who are the players that came to the Swans simply due to Laudrup being the manager? i know this is often quoted, but which players are we talking about? Could you please actually name them? | | | |

Fair enough, although I'm not sure the lure of Laudrup was as great as some people think. If Michu, for example, had been given the choice of signing for us / Laudrup or, say, QPR / Hughes for an extra £10k per week, where do you think he would have gone? | | | |

I believe Michu would not be here if Laudrup wasn't our manager. The fact he threw his toys out of the pram when he was sacked further solidifies this belief. Of course this is all just my belief and is not a 'fact' as people so often tell me. Yet they will then go to a different thread and post their opinions yet I do not go and shoot them down because I am the better person. | |

Michu was offered to a number of Premier League clubs (some say all) and the Swans were the one that bit - it was not a 'Laudrup' signing as such (of course Laudrup was the manager at that time, but he was offered to the club). This has often been stated in the media (by the likes of Sid Lowe etc who know what they are talking about on the Spanish front). So that one is not true - who are the others you refer to or are you saying things such as 'players came to Swansea because of Laudrup' for the sake of generalisation and hyperbole? In my view, Michu was not 'right' a long time before Laudrup left - this has again been used as ammunition against the club and Monk and doesn't seem to be true. I'll tell you what is interesting. One of the players that actually did probably come to Swansea because of his connection with Laudrup is JDG (having played for him previously). And he could not be more positive on the subject of wanting to stay now that Monk is the manager. I liked Laudrup, I've said it on a number of occasions, but do us a favour - if he was a sought after as you and others keep intimating (with top players wanting to play for him all over the place), and as influential as he and his agent kept on implying (interest from Chelsea, Real Madrid etc etc etc) then do you really think he would have ended up taking a job in Qatar (and don't say it was just the money - I suspect Jose is not paid too shabbily at Chelsea). | | | |

"I do not go and shoot them down because I am the better person." Fair play, Rhys, that's a phenomenal contradiction. | |

I would think that other premiership clubs are offerring at least as much as we are, if not more. As you so often point out, we only have a tiny stadium, so the others clubs get TV money & much higher gate receipts than us. So, the Garry & Huw combo MUST be the clincher, wouldn't you think? | | | |
