Siggy 23:48 - May 17 with 17863 views | Griffting | http://m.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39956535 It's interesting. Personally I think there might be a bid 'too good' for the club to turn down in the summer. The resolve will certainly be tested with concerns to gylfi. If we could get 1 more year of service i think it will benefit us and not do too much harm to his progression. [Post edited 17 May 2017 23:56]

Siggy on 07:26 - May 18 by magicdaps10 | This is brilliant. Jenkins comes out and states that players who want to stay will stay, those words from Siggy however true they are......states he wants to stay. I bet Huw was exploding inside when Gylfi came out and said those words especially "its down to the board" Have some of that Huw! PS- Oh yeah huw, do us a favour....fook off. |
When Jenkins said that we needed outside investment, what he really meant was that him and his vipers needed investment to increase their wealth, we shouldn't believe a word he ever says again, I hope his wealth brings nothing but heartache, fuk him. | ![](/images/avatars/9760.gif) |

Siggy on 07:39 - May 18 by TheResurrection | If Siggy is trying to blackmail the Club and blag another £10/£20k a week from us then he needs a massive kick up the arse and got shot of. He's on more than Lukaku and 3/4 of the Arsenal and Liverpool squads. He's not worth it. |

I read it as an insurance policy wrapped in a speculative marketing message. If a club comes in with an offer the board accepts, it's not his fault for wanting out, stays a hero and gets a loyalty bonus from us when leaving. If, and this is the speculative marketing bit, a top 6 club (very unlikely) or high profile overseas club comes in because he keeps his press profile bubbling, but it's 'well I was happy at Swansea but this is too good to turn down. In the meantime, his agent will be working overtime to engineer offers that he thinks the board will accept, because that's what they do for their income.In parallel he will be looking for yet another improved contract/staying bonus for his client, hence the praise for Paul Clement (which he might actually mean, but wasn't Siggy the one that said things had improved in training under Boobley?). Of course it could just be he's telling the truth as he sees it and his agent is sat at home with his feet up. In which case he is like no other player in the history of the premier league money grasping circus. Possible. Be interesting to see how this plays out, and particularly how the Conkmeister General handles it. | ![](/images/avatars/9539.gif) |

Siggy on 23:57 - May 17 by JethroJack | If we end up selling Siggy after he said this, the Board should be lined up in front of a firing squad. |
He has been clever, it may well be true, but he knows if he goes the fans will blame the board and not him. IMO he has earned a move anyway, if a top team comes in for him. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Siggy on 00:07 - May 18 by JackDownUnder | Wish some of the fans who post on this site could be half as decent and loyal as Siggy portrayed himself in that interview. If Swansea find themselves in trouble at the end of next season and Siggy has been sold then the blame can only be laid at the feet of our owners. Nice one Siggy, the rest of the squad should come out and say the same thing, start playing for the love of the game not the money that swamps the world these days. |
Correct. Build the team around him as has been said before. We'll get a substantial amount of money in this summer from the sale of players we want to go. So use that to strengthen the team. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Siggy on 10:01 - May 18 with 2186 views | headcleaner | to suggest that we'd be just as good without siggy in this team would be utter folly. His assists and goals are pretty much what kept us up. sure he's no Gareth Bale or messi but for a team like ours he's as good as we can ever get other than a home grown legend. If he's being judged over the season the same as the other players then sadly the Res needs help but by Siggys standards after the euros he was slow to get going and didn't start effecting results until way after crimbo but it would be fair to say that our run in was pretty much down to him leon and llorente. £40 mill and hes gone we couldn't resist such a fee but knowing our club he'll go for half that and to suggest he's on over 80K again I'd be amazed if that was even remotely true just wishful thinking when players like courtiniho at liverpool was on 50K until his recent contract | ![](/images/avatars/8954.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Shelvey, for all his faults could make a few assists and through balls in OPEN PLAY. He's also made it to English squads. No offence but Siggy would never be looked at for England. | ![](/images/avatars/21041.gif) |
