Sorry if ferdy - Bartley signs new 3 year deal
Good news for me, he has the attributes to be very very good - with Ash screaming at him I think they could form a very good partnership
Thoughts? |  | | |  |

Got everything he needs to be better than Ash IMO. |  |
| Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back. |

Agree with you both, good news and he could learn a great deal off Ash, and maybe he could teach Ash how to score |  |

At what stage of his career has he shown those attributes,nowhere near as good as Caulker. |  | | |

You've been kind of listless since Moore left. Are you looking for a new gimmick? | |

I have to be honest I've not seen anything of him in a Swans shirt other than 20 minutes against Everton last season to suggest he'll be a great player.
That's not to say he won't be in the future of course.
Anyway I'm off for a shower I feel kinda dirty agreeing with TDH.  |  |

Anyone this Monk will start Williams and Bartley as his number one centre back pairing this season? |  | | |

Not as good as Caulker but he has a lot of potential. Physical, composed on the ball and could teach Ash a thing or too about how to score from corners. His weaknesses, namely his rashness when tackling and positioning can be worked upon with good coaching.
Great boost for the lad to get a 3 year contract. Must have wondered if he had a future here at one point. Now he's got an opportunity and hopefully he'll take it. Might not be pushing his way into the starting lineup immediately but if he shows progress this season I'll be happy. Still very young and Centre Back is one of the positions where experience really makes a difference. | | | |

Nothing between him and Caulker at the moment. Give him regular game time and some decent coaching and sky is the limit for him. Good with his feet, good in the air in both boxes and an old fashioned get stuck right into em player. I'd be playing him in front of Amat. |  |

New contract for Bartley is great news...... I like what I've seen of him and I predict a bright future for the lad....very good peice of business by Huw & Garry IMO. |  |

As others have said, KB appeared to have been somewhat frozen out by Laudrup so this new contract will hopefully be a great boost for him.
He certainly has all the physical attributes and is comfortable on the ball - still needs work on his positioning and decision-making but he's got Monk and Ash to help with those. |  | | |

Massive potential. Pair him with Ash and ship Chico off. | | | |
| Bartley on 13:50 - Jul 5 with 3564 views | DwightYorkeSuperstar |
Hard to judge him when he hasn't had a sustained run in the team. I'm happy to keep him around on unspectacular wages as he has shown glimpses of what could one day be but I don't know where this 'He could be better than Ash' and 'Better than Caulker' rubbish is coming from. Get real. |  |

Didn't see Caulker pulling up any trees last season, think he has the capability of being at that level. Whether he can emulate Ash will be a tall order. | | | |

I saw Caulker captaining a Premier League team and completing his second season in the Premier League as a first choice centre back playing nearly (possibly every) match. He also got an England call up I think.
Meanwhile Bartley was lucky to make it in our Capital One Cup squads. They are worlds apart whether our fans want to believe it or not. | |

So you just ignore the relative strengths of the two squads? Nicely done.
By that logic, Fraizer Campbell is a better striker than Javier Hernandes or Fernando Torres.
If Caulker had been in our squad in place of Bartley, he might have played a bit more often but not much, IMO. | | | |

Bartley played in the last few of our games. Show Monk thinks a lot of the guy. |  | | |
