Grimes on 18:39 - Jan 29 with 1909 views | swancity | So a former world class midfield player in Frank Lampard rates Matty Grimes highly enough to believe that he will improve their team and yet some people on PLANETSWANS most of whom haven’t ever kicked a football don’t rate him 😂 I think that says it all. But just to add: the majority of people with a football brain will understand what he brings to a team. He makes what he does look easy as Britton did. Not as good as Britton but with a better range of passing it must be said. Good luck to him. He’s served our club well. Hardly missed a game for 8/9 seasons. Earned good money but hes deserved it. It’s the right time for him to move on … | |

You will notice the sites name and it lives up to it. It means we can all comment ,even if our comments annoy the bejesus out of others . You can be on your own ,like me, and still post how you feel without anyone looking to pillory you or stick you on a proverbial pyre . Grimes has earned significant money for a long time often without breaking sweat, actually walking around the field ,that is when he is not playing centre half or giving the ball straight to the opposition. A captain,so effete, we have seen the most pitiful putrid performances seen for decades where our proud club ahas been shamed . This,under his watch . He has killed is stone dead so often ,it’s painful to remember and now he’s gone,very soon,we will see just how he damaged our intensity A player who handed in a transfer request then stepped onto a coach to play a game where we lost 5-1 in a fashion that physically sickened most. His haircut was shyte too. Most will thank Allah he has gone | |

Just grateful I won’t see him telling us to slow down when we have momentum again. So frustrating. And world class midfielder Frank lampard likes him - lower league manager at best (so far) is not the same standard. Think he’s fallen for the stats and the false idol status | |

No idea That said,great footballers don’t necessarily make great managers ,as Frank and Wozza have proven . He might see him as having ability that could be utilised better,which is what our “ coaches” should have done Anyway,he’s gone | |

Grimes on 20:49 - Jan 29 with 1393 views | Dr_Winston | You really have to be spectacularly dim to assume that ability as a player in any way equates to ability as a coach, especially when it comes to a two time loser in the job like Frank Lampard. If Frankie is of the modern school of thinking then no doubt he is convinced that Grimes is as good as the stats would suggest. Of course, those with a bit of sense know full well that stats should be treated with suspicion, especially when it comes to Statty Grimes. Even today I've seen someone bigging up his "completed passes in the final third" numbers as if they related to actual creativity instead of fairly meaningless switches between flanks. | |

Hopefully he isn’t on a fourteen day refund / return. Law states : You must offer a refund to customers if they've told you within 14 days of receiving their goods that they want to cancel. They have another 14 days to return ... | |

One stat which I find incredible is for the past 6 and a half seasons Matt Grimes has hardly missed a league game, surely he couldn’t have been all that bad? | | | |

He's not fond of a tackle, which stats bear out. He's not high tempo, high mileage, all of which lend themselves to picking up injuries. He's probably also naturally resilient. He's tailor made for the kind of idiots who have managed our club for most of the past four years. Heavy on the possession, light on the entertainment, so managerial acceptance is also high. | |

Lampard played alongside and against the best midfielders in the world. He knows what makes a team tick and unlike you he understands the need for the right balance in a team. Players like Grimes who can keep possession and calmly take the pressure off in more of an holding role are integral to good sides. Lampard may or may not turn into a very good manager. He’s had his moments but time will tell. But in terms of his judgement of a player qualities and what he ( Grimes ) can and will bring to a midfield area there is no better judge than Lampard in this instance. In the same way I would prefer to listen to the views of Alan Shearer than you in terms of what makes a good striker. | |

Our info was he verbally approached the club on Thursday. Verbally or in writing seems to be the same. It’s just that these journalists at times forget they need to apply a more inquisitive mind and utilise their communication skills before scribbling.It surprises me that WOL would say that because there’s one journalist there who could have put them right immediately. Very odd. | |

I read it here Keith: The 29-year-old has stopped short of submitting a formal transfer request, but is understood to have made his feelings clear to the club that he'd like to talk to Coventry City, who, having had two bids knocked back already, have returned with another offer. https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/grimes-exit-sporting- [Post edited 29 Jan 22:56]

Popcorn is ready. Let’s see if Swansea City dragged Matt Grimes back or vice versa- let’s see how Coventry do. Proof of the pudding etc | | | |

I’m not sure how Lampard sets up, but I’d expect him to look better there than under Martin or Williams. | | | |

Do we know if this request was a result of initial Coventry approaches being turned down? Was this transfer born out of Coventry targeting Grimes or Grimes' agent touting him out as he wanted out of our club? | |
