Signed a new four year deal apparently. Certainly the end of the road for Amat. |  | | |  |

He has had 12 months managed/coached by an excellent defender. Say what you like about Monk but he knew how to defend.During that 12 months he has had excellent reviews and come back here and the manager likes what he has seen.
Give the boy a break and let's see what he can do, it could well end up saving us a lot of money. |

PC has more than likely been told there's no cash for another centre half, and rates Bartley above VDH as cover, which is understandable as VDH has been awful pre season. PC doesn't get much say I'm fairly certain. |  | | |

Since joining in 2012 Bartley has made 16 appearances for us each one with the exception ( of 1) he has been fuking awful.
We give him a new contract .... you really couldn't make it up unless as stated by another poster it's just to sell him.
Whilst at Arsenal he was also loaned out to lower leagues or the pub league up North. [Post edited 8 Aug 2017 15:03]

Agree. I think most of our fans didn't watch him play in PL. Very poor. One season on hoof-ball and he's a world beater. Naturally I hope he comes good but scary that he's our main back up CB. Prey FF and Mawson don't lose form or get injured. |  | | |

There is little likelihood of me being able to tell PC (if it's his decision) that he got this wrong.
So as it's a forum for Swans fans do you think a player who has made 16 appearances in 5 years should receive a new 4 year contract ? |
First thing we need to do is acknowledge that he's made more than 16 appearances in five years. I know most people prefer not to think about last season, but to deny its existence completely is going a bit far.
Based on his outstanding displays for Leeds last season and Clement's obvious liking for him then a new deal is not unexpected. I wouldn't have offered him four years though if that helps. |  |

They loved him at Liids ,it won't take a lot to turn him into a decent defender ,just a bit of coaching off the right people ,Clem likes him and he's got our defence into a proper defence that gives very little away theses days |  |

.......or you can get a striker to run at him and wait for the net to bulge.

We've got the biggest drama queens ever 
We're going to get relegated now be f*cked.
Glad we've tied him down, a proper old fashioned centre half, and we will never in a month of Sundays get a better back up player. Hasn't thrown his toys out of the pram when he hasn't been selected or sent out on loan, that sits well with me. |  |

His games for us under Monk were varying levels of sh1te. Let us prey |
The standards of some of the punters on this thread leaves me speechless. If anyone really believes that Bartley will ever be a regular PL player then they are deluded.
There again some punters even believe Fernandes (gift a goal or chance every game Federico) is good enough |  | | |

Come now Neath ....
Good old centre half ? I felt safer with Snopp dog playing.
If Alf or Fede pick up an injury we are fuked with Bartley / VDH as back up | | | |

Does it have something to do, with that Premier League club need to have certain amount of british players in it squad? |  | | |

I'm staggered by the nonsense written so far in this thread. Do you guys have any idea how awful the majority of the team was when Bartley last played in it? Naughton, Mawson, Fernandez all looked shoddy to say the least under previous managers. Kyle Bartley offers us an alternative to the technical/cultured pairing of Mawson/Fernandez and is a proven goalscoring threat. Clearly PC sees something in him. |
Fu ck me...someone talking sense on Planet Swans! |  |

I don't think the teams we played in pre-season are quite up to PL standard but I take your point about the manager. |
I think this is one area they will let PC make a decision. And it saves money. |  |

He did voice his disapproval about Ki getting picked as CD ahead of him for the Bradford Cup Final game IIRC. |  | | |

The problem is not Bartley the back up it the 4 year contract. We all know what happens when these contracts get dished out the player goes backward in effort. | | | |
| Kyle Bartley on 22:14 - Aug 9 with 1456 views | headcleaner |
I am flabbergasted that people rate KB as prem quality and a 4 year contract is just reward for his qualities. I'd rather see tate and KoL play centre back |  | | |
| Kyle Bartley on 22:30 - Aug 9 with 1427 views | JonTheJack |
I was one of the posters to say that Bartley is a fraud of a footballer. Every single time he played for us he was utter garbage; and that is being kind.
I can only say that judging from most reports he had a very good season last year so I will just pause from saying what I really think and take another look if he is called upon.
Four years simply irritates me. I hope its just to increase the fee we can get for him after the season he had previous. |  | | |

It's difficult to erase his 'Keystone Cop' performance, at Anfield, from the mind. | |
