Desperately needed in January! I know we'd probably not be saying this had gomis taken around the keeper and scored, but he's clearly not good enough, surely we've got the money to go out and buy a 20mil striker who's guarenteed to get you goals? |  | | |  |

It's not a matter of liking any player.
I don't guveashit about Gomis or any of our players so long as they benefit my club.
They are financially secure and have no allegiance to our club.
They dont perform ,we should replace.
Is it a dip.. |  |

I don't think anyone has ever claimed if they don't perform then we should replace
The point for me is we don't (unless I am mistaken) have a pot of money to replace them with
And staying up this season is no more vital than it was last or the year before, the difference has always been massive, it is just bigger now |  | | |

Can't entirely agree with the last part of that Phil, staying up has always been vital...but with the extra money for staying up this year, it's more important, as the financial gap between the relegated Premier League teams and Championship teams will be that much greater. |  |

One fact is 100% certain Jenkins and the Board will not want to be relegated this season,this could have a huge bearing how the club will proceed in the January window,past policy may well be thrown out of it. | | | |

According to Phil we haven't got a pot to p*ss into......loans and free transfers it is then. | |

I understand why people are saying it but its not just the difference in income for next year it is the total knock on effect of relegation that means staying up is not more important any year I don't think | | | |

I'm not sure I ever said that part I think my reference was more to those that think we will splash out £10m+ on a striker.
I would be amazed if we have no budget but it won't be massive IMO | | | |

We won't have made astronomical profit on the Bony deal after things like signing on fees, wages, tax, agents, etc have been taken into account. Any money we did make has been matched in terms of investment in off the field infrastructure.
And as for more cash from TV rights, that just leads to increased outgoings in terms of player wages. The only bank balances to be swelled by a new TV deal will be those of the players. |  |

We signed Eder for £5m. Tabanou for £3.5m. The two players have hardly played. Fans have every right to ask why.
At the moment Gomis isn't playing well. It has always been Garrys policy that it is your shirt to loose. How much worse does Gomis have to play in order to loose his shirt to Eder?
Eder must be right pissed off. I feel sorry for him. The same goes for Tabanou. He can't even get into the match day squad. Unbelievable!
Yet there are people on here who get the right hump when we question Garry's selection. We pay good money to watch the Swans. We have every right to ask questions.
These players are on good wages and we expect a little more from a striker who earns 70K a week! [Post edited 4 Nov 2015 18:10]

We do have every right to ask why.
We don't see them in training every day.
I'll trust Monk on this one. |  |

"It has always been Garrys policy that it is your shirt to lose."
Has it? Any examples of when he has actually implemented that policy consistently. I would contend that it is something he says mechanically because he's received it whilst 'getting his badges' or heard others say it.
I've nothing at all against GM, leaving aside the alarm bells on the overall style of play this season, but he quite often talks that peculiar language of Managershit and always has. |  |

So are you suggesting that Gomis is better in training than he is during the game for some reason or that he is the same in training and Eder is even worse? | | | |

I think you've made a very good point.
Added to the Eder for £5m and Tabanou for £3.5m we have Grimes for the best part of £2m.
While we don't see them and don't know the thinking (rightly), it is a fair question to ask if we have been less successful in our dealings in the past 18 months that we may have thought. That's over £10m for players that just don't feature. | | | |

Now that you mention it I can't think of any examples, the opposite in fact. | | | |

...and £5m for Naughton.
Not a bad player but not a £5m one either. |  | | |

Think we'd see more from Naughton in a more attacking team.
Let's face it, the odd flash from Montero aside we're done diddly squat out wide for a long time. |  |

Yes - I didn't include him because at least he's in the team!
The others are nowhere to be seen (other than 3 minutes at the end for Eder, which is just bizarre).
He's OK I think - he's got a bit of pace about him and can (at times) put in a great cross, but a mix of his pace and Angel's technical ability and we'd be talking. God knows what that would cost though!
We're also spawning money on Michu at the rate of knots of course. | | | |

Any idea why we payed 5 million for a striker who is clearly not rated and 3.5 million for a full back who cant get on the bench. |  |

At a guess we thought both were good enough and have decided the opposite after purchase
Eder from what I have seen isn't, Tabanou I haven't seen in action so I cant comment | | | |

If he is scared to hit the ball in a one on one with the keeper against Norwich on Saturday just like he was last Saturday then it is time to get rid i think. |
