Let's be fair here there is no way that ML was not aware of Emnes when we signed him, we may as well stop pretending he was


Why did he say he knew very little about him then.

Emnes was signed with the blessing of the manager - it will be a fact whether we like to admit it or not.

He would have had the option to say no and had he done so the player would not have been signed

Being aware of him and wanting him is very different.


So why didn't he say no then if he didn't want him?

Laudrup to Paris after yesterday, Rangel sounds like he has gone to Spain for a few days looks like training could resume Tuesday, I wonder what this press conference could be.

Did he have a choice?

Again, I stand by what I said, doesn't bother me getting a slating, IF Huw and the board are signings players, then they need to go.

If they do go, I think a board made up of the mods on here could do a job.

Players who the manager doesn't want. Wasn't so clear on original post.

So is this how the conversation went

Huw look Micheal we cant get any of the players you want there to expensive
Micheal ok never mind
Huw yes but we have this player from Boro he is not very good but he is cheap and scored the winner against Cardiff.
Micheal never heard of him.
Huw do you want him or not.
Micheal ok then better than nothing I suppose

I have no idea but he did say I know very little about the player which is slightly concerning.

Why would a manager sign a player he knows nothing about

That's twice you have done that. Claimed he said 'I know very little' and then asked why he would sign someone he knows nothing about

Maybe his scouting team and backroom staff had told him it was the right signing and he would be a good back up to add to the current squad

As I said I am just passing on the simple fact that he sanctioned the signing and gave it his blessing.

You're assuming the manager identifies the player targets. I have trouble believing Laudrup gets his hands that dirty. He'll identify areas we need to strengthen and the scouting network will do the rest. The fact our domestic scout has only ever been to Middlesbrough is the issue. ...

Perhaps, like most things football/Swans related, Laudrup just couldn't give a shit?

And that is a bigger point. Never going to say Emnes is the answer but I know for a fact that ML sanctioned the signing and had he not done so then he would not have been signed

The interview however suggests to me quite clearly that - as we have suspected for some time - things are not well between the manager and his employers

I am sure I posted a thread on here at the start of the season stating that fact and I was accused of stirring.

Seems I am ahead of my time.

How would you explain Michu, JDG, Canas, Chico etc then. It seems pretty obvious that someone at the club has been desperate to get Emnes here, I just want to know why? He clearly struggled to maintain a decent level of performance at championship level, who at the club thinks he can do it here.. It's all well and good looking for cheap option squad players, but when they are needed they are simply not good enough to make any sort of impact.

Old tea bag might be able to trawl this bit up wasn't one of the reasons laudrup had a paddy and his agent threw one ,that our board were only interested in sub standard championship players ie ngog. And emnes plus Rhys Williams cause if he hadn't got injured we'd have had him as well think they would have learnt with the likes of Ryan Harley

And Schechter, Vazquez and Lamah??

It seems to you because you want to believe it that the manager knew nothing about it but he did and sanctioned the signing of Marvin Emnes. It happened. It really did.

Had the manager said no then we would not have signed him. We really wouldn't.

Smacks of these or nothing were your employers and we think these are good enough so put up and shut up make do as for the scouting if true they need an overhaul
