For 5 weeks we have valued Siggy at £50M
Everton have put a bid in for £40M then £40M with add ons?
So this is a game of Everton calling our bluff to see if we cave in on the final day of the window and get Siggy on the cheap and us waiting on Everton to pay up hoping they will pay £50M and get their man.
Either way we are stuffed here.. if this goes to the final day we i'm sceptical we will have 2 or 3 signings waiting in the wings.
So the likelihood is we'll get £45M as an undisclosed fee or one unhappy Siggy on our books going into September also without any further signings to our lean squad.

Id love it if they came in with a £50m bid with half hour to go of the window and we tell them to feck off. |
& me it will never happen though |  | | |

You are right Awayjack, we've not been told the whole truth on this. There definitely something thats not straight forward going on. I won't condemn or defend Siggy until we find out the whole truth (if ever). |
"The truth" should come out once the window has closed from the Trust via a statement.
About time we started a PR offensive to let the fans know exactly what the F has gone on over the sale of the club and the financial mismanagement of the ex board.
As well as exactly what the Merrycans are up to and if it's the club trying to force the sale or the player. Either way, it's dragged on for far too long
The colonials are taking no notice of the Trust.
Seems like the bridges being built are mirages to try and stop the threat of legal action.
They have to buy any substantial amount of Trust shares (can't use the Siggy money as far as I understand) and would be unable to use the Sigurdsson cash to buy the stadium either.
Could scupper their plans of a quick profit by selling the club and the Trust shares on. |  |

It seems quite a lot on here have already hung Siggy out to dry without knowing all the facts. |  |

Seems to be the case ....
I cant wait to hear the truth about this sale.
Hope Gylfi says it because we wont hear it from the club (& I include the trust in that) | | | |

Any gain from holding out for a few million more will be negated by teams knowing we are flush with money and desperate in the last few days of the window.
Potential signings may go elsewhere whilst we dither.
A good example of how not to do it. |
I agree with what you are saying, but it may be that there is no cash available to fund any transfers until Siggy is gone. | | | |

What odds Gylfi being sold £42m with add-ons on transfer deadline and Chadli being the only replacement for a fee of above £20m? | | | |

Let's hope we at least dabble again in loan market but we're as crap as closing late deals as we are on our stated plan of doing our business early. |  | | |

The longer this goes n the more you have to wonder if this is what Gylfi wants?
Whoever is negotiating this deal is doing a very poor job.
Teams like us are splashing the cash and playing settled football already... in comparism we've given our players the perfect excuse to start poorly again... No Siggi, No Llorente, No Ki, no significant improvements...
The Man Utd game will highlight the players attitudes regarding the club and another shower of shyte in the transfer market.
Play like we did on Saturday and this could be embarrassing 😳 |

Give Liverpool a ring now Coutinho is off and start an auction between them and Everton.
And if Liverpool aren't interested, tell 'em Southampton are bidding and they can cut out the middleman  | |

Exactly! The moment Clement stated our team strengthening plans were dependant on Sigurdsson moving the tide turned, Everton have been in the box seat ever since | |

If Liverpool wanted him, that would be a different thing. I'm sure Everton would shit a brick and offer asking price. Sadly, he isn't Liverpool calibre. | | | |

My understanding is that a lot of this is caught up in the bad faith offer Everton made for £45M cash - before subsequently tried to renegotiate. That's totally out of order.
That would undoubtedly harden the swans board position.
I presume that the last week has been about walking back from that position without being seen to be taken advantage of the bad faith ploy. I also presume that the extended delay suggests Everton are fairly immovable on their renegotiated position.
Needs a bit of mediation to cut through the pride and end up with a win win for all. |  |

I'm guessing it could be the exact opposite. That Everton upped their bid to £45 with add ons and were furious when we "leaked" what should have been confidential information, and consequently told us to get lost and said take the first offer or forget about, knowing they've got no real competition for Siggy's signature. I'm guessing, once again, that the yanks have shot themselves in the foot and are struggling big time to save face. Mind you, I'm only guessing. | | | |

Looks like Barkley could be welcomed back into the fold, he's back training with the first team and its rumoured that he could start or play some part in their Europa Cup game on Thursday, is that an attempt to gain our attention and get the deal moving or are they about to move on from Siggy I wonder?

Let's hope so.
One way or the other this needs sorting, its the 15th of August tomorrow and the window is closing in a couple of weeks. Unless the players Swansea are looking to sign are surplus to demand at their current clubs, then the selling club will also have to sign someone and the chains becomes no more complicated.

Yep, we naively played our card by virtually admitting that we need him gone to fund new signings, that much seems obvious as we haven't signed anyone since Tammy and Mesa for the First Team. | |

I still don't see who makes way to accommodate Siggy in the Everton setup : even more so if Barkley stays. | |
