Sounds like Dan James is off on 20:41 - Feb 17 with 2551 views | JackSomething | Seems difficult to blame anyone for the situation. Can't blame the club for not giving him a new contract in the summer if he had one in late 2017. He's gone on to break out and is deservedly attracting attention. Can't blame him for wanting to leave and not signing a new contract. When it comes to bids in the summer, we could argue that we'll just keep him for the last year of his contract if no-one bids enough. Unfortunately, the club's actions in the last 2 transfer windows and the regular communiques that we don't have a pot to piss in means other clubs will laugh at us if we try that approach. Monmouth's suggestion seems sensible. It would be nice to see some sense in football for once. | ![](/images/avatars/9612.gif) |

I am just going to enjoy watching him while he is here, however long that may be. I hope he is still here next season at least, but I’m certain his agent will advise him not to sign a new contract. If he goes, I’m sure I’ll still enjoy watching him play for Wales! The thought of Bale on one wing and a more mature Dan James on the other is quite exciting. What a crop of young wingers/AM’s Wales have coming through:- James, Brooks, Wilson, Lawrence, Woodburn...... I remember when Wales were consistently terrible (90 - 115 World ranking).

If the owners allow this team to be broken up in the summer- then a pox on them all. With a few strategic signings this squad could easily push for a serious automatic promotion challenge next year.

Sounds like Dan James is off on 19:12 - Feb 17 by Private_Partz | Indeed. What we should be doing is tying him down to a lucrative contract and convincing him that this is a club that wants to get back to the top flight. Unfortunately I am expecting fire sale 3 in the next window only it wont be big earners this time. Just the youngsters that can attract high fees. |
Problem is tying players down to lucrative contracts then not being able to afford them has caused a whole heap of trouble | ![](/images/avatars/21549.gif) |

Club did something similar with Bony, gave him a new contract and then sold him on for an increased fee. They need to sit down with the player and his agent, strike a deal where James gets a pay rise and an assurance he can leave in the future when his buy out clause threshold is activated and (as much as it goes against the grain) cross the agents palm with some silver. Player gets a pay rise, agent gets paid and both have the prospect of even more money come the summer when a transfer is sorted. Further transfer in summer and player is happy, agents bulging wallet becomes even fatter and Club is happy. Downside Club pays out more in short term, but has the prospect of increased transfer fee come summer. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Jenkins is the only one with the power to do it though, this was exactly the sort of scenario I talked about with the dangers of removing him to satisfy people’s revenge thirst. We are now completely unprotected in this sense and no doubt they will be bringing someone in who will follow their orders to the letter.

Sounds like Dan James is off on 15:59 - Feb 18 with 1550 views | PapaLazarou | It's well known that Dan wanted a new deal with the Swans. He's on around £2k a week currently, and he's seen certain team mates getting deals worth £15k a week. Obviously he's well entitled to feel his value to the team is equal to said teammates. Leeds offered him £15k, plus a big bonus if they got promoted. It's easy to see why the move was attractive, especially when we wouldn't even open negotiations over a new contract. Hopefully we can get him signed up to a new deal, if he keeps performing like yesterday there will be better moves available to him than Leeds. | ![](/images/avatars/8782.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Sounds like Dan James is off on 16:14 - Feb 18 with 1516 views | swancity | One good half of football does not suddenly make James a Premier league player We know he’s quick but we also know that his final ball has been very poor as has his composure after his pace has got him into dangerous areas. He’s still learning his trade and is very inexperienced. He’s been likened to a headless chicken by many but his potential is there for all to see You’d think he’s changed over night into Ronaldo the way some of you are wetting your knickers. One good half against Brentford, yes Brentford chaps and their defending was pathetic on Sunday wasn’t it. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Sounds like Dan James is off on 16:32 - Feb 18 with 1466 views | jasper_T | This "very poor final ball" criticism is going to follow him for a long time despite the stats showing that he's about average in terms of delivery at this level, which is full of players who balloon the majority of their attempts out for goal kicks and throw ins. Bit like Fabianski having poor distribution according to Swans fans even though stats showed that he was above average among PL keepers for kicking and throwing accuracy. Reputations are hard to shake once the majority have made their minds up. Every well-defended cross he makes becomes further confirmation of "the truth". 3 assists in half as many minutes as Celina and McBurnie (4 each) this season. Should have a handful more but for that pair missing sitters he laid on for them as well. Lad needs shooting lessons though, no argument there. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
