Open Invitation to the Siggy Haters 08:52 - May 9 with 30325 viewsNirvana

Granted there aren't that many dumb enough to do it, but to everyone who knocks Siggy week after week (or at all) I offer you an open invite.

Since he is so bad and "jaded" or whatever and we should be happy to sell him, please list a few credible names you think would make better options for us if we stay up.

So far all I've seen from the usual anti-Siggy trolls are Adama Traore, Izzy Brown and Bojan. Thoroughly disappointing list of replacements for someone of Siggy's class and quality.

Not to mention they have a TOTAL of 4 goals, 1 assist in 45 top-flight games this season. That's not going to cut it, and production like that will have us relegated next season.

Anyone else got any names?

Adama Traore?!?!?!?!?!?!? wtf.

He's definitely gone in the Summer. I love Gylfi, would love for him to be a one club man, but he's going to Everton or Tottenham I think. Shame.

But, I'll give you a name - Joe Allen.

Huw will not waste money on that lot. Not when we already have Ayew, Fer and Ki as more than capable replacements.

Both he, and the club's money men (hell. that is the club now, isn't it), will want to cash in on his current media profile in the summer whatever happens.

Yeah, Brynmil would enthusiastically swap Siggy "straight up" for Traore. Ffukkingg clueless.

I sadly agree with you about Siggy leaving, but I hold out hope The Americans can somehow talk him into staying ($$$). They need to invest in the squad, it's that simple, and I think Siggy is well aware of that. If they do, he stays. If not, he's gone, unfortunately.

But I like your name and Allen is pure class. Would love to have him in the XI. How much would he cost, though? Has been superb for Stoke this season, doubt they'd be giving us a bargain.

I believe regardless of what league we are in that he is gone. As for replacements.

Nabil Fekir

Another excellent player who i have always liked, more of a central midfielder.....Kevin Kampl.

That's a fair point, Monmouth, and I agree with you.

But wouldn't the smarter business plan be to keep Siggy, invest a little on some good players, and raise the club's profile through sustained success on the pitch?

The Americans aren't Huw and The Gang, and will hopefully bring more business acumen to the table. Having said that, I won't be holding my breath on the "next level" stuff.

I know he's one of our own but Joe Allen isn't fit to lace Siggy's boots.
The contribution Siggy makes to our team is there for all to see.
Allen never gave us that when he was with us, nor has he done it for Liverpool, Stoke or Wales.
Great player is Joey and I'd welcome him back alongside Siggy, but not in place of him sorry.

The accounts are a final and fitting testament to Roofing & Vending Ltds business acumen.

I think, like Williams, Bony, Allen, Sinclair, if he wants to go, he'll be gone. And with the current hype around him he'll want to go.

Superb this season ?
Six goals and two assists ?
Based on that, we'd be sunk if we'd swapped him for Siggy last summer

Good list Magic Daps but are any of those players attainable? Can't see any of them coming here to be honest. Which makes Siggy staying all that more important, because other players would be more willing to come.

Three players I think would be perfect for us are:
Marcel Sabitzer (RB Leipzig)
Nadiem Amiri (Hoffenheim)
Sandro (Malaga)

All are rumoured to be on the move this summer, and we should doing everything we can to sign them. It would be difficult but this is the caliber of player we should be acquiring.

Yes, Allen has been superb this season, just the type of all-energy+craft midfielder we have been badly missing and had to rectify by signing Carroll in January.

But no, I would not want to swap Siggy for Joe in a million years. That was my point. Allen would probably cost near Siggy's level, and wouldn't bring us anywhere close to the same production.

I'm a fan of putting them in the same XI, though.

It's a fair point. And in Siggy's best interest, too.

I hope he doesn't leave but I will understand why if he chooses to.

"Roofing & Vending Ltd" pretty much sums it up.

It will be impossible to replace Siggy with one player who can do what he can.

He has assisted-scored HALF of our goals this season. It's alright saying we can get 3,4,5 players for what we will get for him but you can only put 1 player on the pitch instead of him.

Sell Baston, Ki, Montero, Routledge, Dyer, vdH, but keep Siggy at almost any cost. He is up there with the top performers in the league in a p poor squad. He is ours and we should do everything possible to keep him

I'm sick of all this 'player power' BS...we've got Gylfi contracted until what, 2020? If we wants out this summer, we tell him no. He's hardly going to play sh*t until we've sold him. He's integral to our survival next year (if we stay up this season)...we need to keep him here at all costs. Even if we offer him a better contract in the summer to keep him quiet.

There is no shadow of doubt in my mind that if we stay up Mr Clement will have a greater influence on comings and goings than any of our more recent Managers,his own personal stock will be high and our owners are not fools and will know that the club has a Manager of some worth.Mr Clement knows the continental market and he himself will not want to go through another relegation battle,consequently,feel Siggy will remain, aided by assurances that the squad will be strengthened and dead wood sold/paid off.

There is no chance he will be a Swansea player next season.

He is clearly better than this level-someone will offer £25m and we'll take it.

I ll explain


Haters ,as such, are simply defending their Internet Billy bollux reputation.

They re the ones who, if they don't like a player for some reason hammer him no matter what, at every time


I've hated what FF has done many times but ,as of late, he s upped his game, no doubted aided by the incredible prospect we have in Mawson.


Only players I've hated, for what it's worth


1. Joe Jordan

2. Alan Clarke


3. Lesley


4 Barton


5. Terry
