Clement appears to believe ... operative phrase is "can be better" ... if funds are used to strengthen.

I think you can even change "can" to "should".

He seems more upbeat now Siggy has gone fair play.

Need to get business done by middle of next week, Man Utd game is a write off for me, start off with the same team against Southampton and it's going to be a long afternoon, a point would be a massive bonus.

The squad is desperate for 3/4 new faces.

With the exception of Tammy, all our new players are going to be late starters for us, and one or two may even come in January. Looks to me that it could be some time before the team jellies.

Also, anyone else notice how in his presser Clement specifically said there were no disciplinary issues with Gylfi and that he didn't travel to America because at the time they were under the impression the deal would be done that weekend. He also confirmed the decision was made between them that Gylfi wouldn't play in the last two games specifically to avoid injury which would obviously halt the transfer.

I looked out for it but there was no mention of the PS version where Gylfi is the devil incarnate and "refused" to go to America or to play for us. Whatever, he's gone now. Lets hope he has his best headless chicken days when Everton play Swansea.

He said Siggy decided not to go to the States as he felt the deal would go through that weekend. He said there were no disciplinary issues but often said he wanted to work with players that wanted to work and be here.

Fúck Siggy.

Yes, I agree with Clement.

That's why Chelsea are going to sell all their first team and replace them with journeymen, cos their team will be better.

thats not quite what he said.....Swansea City head coach Paul Clement says the club could end up with a better team despite the departure of key midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson

"We want to improve our playing squad, we want to improve our style we want to win more games we believe that with the funds we have available we can strengthen the squad and end up being a better team

Clement was not prepared to talk about other clubs' players but admitted it was a "big challenge" to replace Sigurdsson, who was key to the Swans' Premier League survival last season with nine goals and 13 assists.

"We have not got Gylfi but we could potentially bring in not just one for one, but potentially two or three players to strengthen the squad in various positions," said Clement.

Also what would you expect him to say "without Gylfi we are stuffed"

No one is indispensible and we have seen in the past how we have moved on....all the way through our history players like Ivor,CLiff Jones,Curt,Robbie,Trundle,Bony have moved on and Ash last season....the issue is who we replace Gylfi with

Yes I will read and learn but at the moment I am more concerned this whole thing will explode in our faces and relegation will be upon us NOT because we have sold Gylfi but of what do next. In recent times our player aquisition has been very suspect I would suggest Michu, andBony were the stand out successes,the return of Gylfi I dont count as we already knew him..then I suppose we have to look at Alfie...who most on here were lambasting this time last year,Olsen looked to be a good signing Carrol again someone we knew...but for me the jury is still out on Narsingh and Ayew.With Gylfi we knew what we were getting I am not sure those currently responsible for bringing in new players really know what will be a good fit.....look at last seasons record spend!

Well you seem to be hanging on to his every word.
Talk is cheap. He has to deliver now and more importantly our DOF and his recruiting team have to pull their fingers out to make this a reality. Something i have real concerns about.
Losing Siggy need not be the end of the world and teams can be rejigged and rebuilt under a new coach.
A lot of water has to flow under the bridge before that happens......and pdq as well.

The best football we played during our time in the Prem, perhaps ever, did not involve Sigurdsson. Clement is quite correct in stating that the presence of Gylfi is not essential.

More important to get our attack functioning on a more fluid basis, which will require players who can move the ball quickly and accurately in the danger areas.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Totally agree we can be better post Siggy IF we invest well in 3/4 players in positions needed AND suit the way we intend to play.

I dont think sppunking 20+ million on Chadli or paying over 12m on Clucas is the right path.

We need creativity and goals in the final third and stronger depth at Centre Half and Right Back.

There are quite a few different types of AM. Siggurdson is just one of them. Perhaps Clement (like Laudrup) has a differnt kind in mind.

I think he said we were not a selling club but in Siggy's case he wanted a new challenge. So it is hang in to our best players..... unless they want to go.

Clement is a good coach. I'm not worried about replacing Siggy. I am worried that not all funds will be reinvested. I also worry about Clement's ability to get the type of player he wants when Moneyball and HJ are drawing up the shortlist.
