I wouldn't say it is a completely different statement. How can the appointment of an ambitious manager be unambitious?

But he obviously clearly had a role to play in the transfer, by impressing Gomis and by approving the signing. He deserves credit.

I would give the credit of all transfers to the manager, who has the final say along with the board, who negotiated the deal.


If I was appointed manager, I'd be extremely ambitious. I'd target a top 10 finish at the minimum. Does that mean it'd have been an ambitious appointment if the job was given to me?

And yes he probably had a role in the transfer. I'm sure it was Garry's magical words and not the financial package and club status / facilities that made him sign.

New signing praises manager, chairman, club and fans shocker!

F*ck me - that's a new one!


Regardless of how typical it is, it's clear that Garry Monk has spoken to Bafetimbi Gomis and we all know Garry Monk has the final say.

It's amazing how Garry Monk can do no good in some peoples eyes. Apparently it's his now his job to identify all transfer targets.

Heh.

It was always a daft argument anyway. They'll always go with the money.

Here's hoping he's half decent anyway.


Exactly. It's puerile. I'm very worried for those two chaps though, Dwight and Warwick. They've painted themselves so far into the "Monk is a disaster" corner that it's going to ruin their enjoyment of the season. Especially when we win.

He improved towards the latter end of the season. Let's hope that continues.

I'll never understand the need to be right above the Swans. We can all have doubts, I know I do, but that's just bonkers. Not saying Warwick's necessarily in that category although he doesn't like being proven wrong

Fair enough, I apologize for the earlier statement.

Garry Monk could have stopped the deal if he thought there was a different alternative, he will be judged on how well the players that are signed this summer do whether they were identified under previous managers or not.

A player like Bafetimbi Gomis will have taken some persuading, he was offered moves to bigger club and I'm sure he was made bigger financial offers. It's not co-incidence that between them Garry Monk and Huw Jenkins have managed to persuade both Fabianski and Gomis to join with them both having a number of other clubs interested.

We instantly improved when Monk took over before a really poor spell that we bounced out of and finished strongly.

I think the best performances were when Monk first took over though.

So what you're saying is that Huw Jenkins should be judged on our signings over the course of the summer, and Garry Monk can't be criticized if any of them fail, after all he doesn't have the final say and Huw Jenkins could have prevented any of the transfers?

Arf.

I'll be pleasantly surprised if he starts to react to those beastly managers changing their tactics and formations at half-time.

I wish him luck. He'll need it...

No point arguing, I think DYSS is some elaborate bot created by fansnetwork, to drum up posts. Very cleaver if you ask me, obviously trawls threads and posts opposite views, just to keep Phil happy. Also has the ability to start threads, of course, never saying good things about the Swans. Well done Phil/fansnetwork

So, that WAS Bafetimbi Gomis that I saw on Wednesday @ 10.27am all suited & booted as I walked out of the Liberty Stadium store, carrying my newly purchased red/black away shirt.

Nice to see our new manager making good use of his strong European contacts & impressing Gomis, along with our visionary chairman.

HELL OF A SIGNING, I'm sure you'll agree

More to come, methinks!!

Not quite, Einstein.

The board have the final say on transfers - which is how it should be.
Final say is different from picking the targets ( N'Gog & Emnes)...

How a manager utilises the players at his disposal is another matter.
All managers get criticised on messageboards when they f*ck up, Laudrup and Monk included.

Sound idea NZ, surely some of the garbage he writes....well it must be an elaborate bot as you say.

Because some of the senseless stuff he spouts, obviously is retrieved from a general shredder.

Absolutely over the moon with this signing which - if I'm honest - didn't think was going to happen until I heard the good news earlier this evening. What absolutely baffles me is the ongoing saga / discussion / argument about who is to be credited with getting Gomis on board...FFS he has signed for SWANSEA CITY FOOTBALL CLUB and that is all that matters to me. Yes, I want Garry to succeed as our manager (and I believe he will) but I couldn't care less whether this signing is down to Garry, Huw, Pep, our new overseas scout (whose name now escapes me!) or Sue Eames the kit lady. BAFETIMBI GOMIS IS A JACK. THAT IS ALL THAT MATTERS (to me).

..."who will guard the guards..?"

So what you're saying is, that Garry Monk should be given absolutely no credit for the signing of Bafetimbi Gomis. If he was to do well, it's because Huw Jenkins made a good signing but if he was to fail it's because Garry Monk hasn't utilised him well enough.

Monk has little to do with the signing of Gomis in fairness, other than a meet and greet at some point this week, which was clearly not going to be the dealbreaker for the lad.

The scouting system recommended him and the board chose to go for him, and Huw Jenkins negotiated the deal.

And that's no slight on Monk, that's just how the majority of transfers work.
