Has ANY player left us and done well? 17:49 - Feb 19 with 6528 viewsshenleymun

Just been talking to the GF about this (having just realised that Danny Graham still exists) but she asked me to shut up so now I am bringing it here.

Has any player left us and genuinely succeeded at a bigger club since we won promotion?

Only one I can think of who could begin to argue it is Ben, and he is at best a first team squad member not a first teamer at Spurs.

Wilf, Scotty, Caulker, Borini, de Guzman - moved to genuinely bigger clubs (Spurs in Caulkers case!) and failed

Doris, Pratley, Vorm, Shelvey, Graham - moved sideways then downwards

Have I forgotten someone?

No cracks about Taylor or Rory Donnelly please.

Sam Ricketts?

Edit - only just noticed the 'since we won promotion' part of your post. Ooops.

I'll start you off with Sam Ricketts.

I want a mate like Flashberryjacks, who wears a Barnsley jersey with "Swans are my second team" on the back.

If this was a queen of the south forum I would say Jason Scotland and be very bloody happy I did.

A few have left during the Premier League era and gone on to do well in a money sense. However not many had success on the field.

Stoke bigger than the Swans? Wash your mouths out.
(But yes I did forget Joey).

Before anyone mentions him, I remember this Chinaglia kid back in the day...

My recollection is he only played about ten games for us, but he was a different level.
Serious injury stopped his career.

Caulker (Spurs), De Guzman (Villareal) and Borini (Chelsea) were all on loan and never our players so none of those actually left us to to to a bugger club. They left their parent clubs, most of those parent clubs were bigger than the clubs that they moved to as well.

As for who has left us and succeeded, I don't think Joe Allen, Ben Davies or Ashley Williams will have regretted leaving us out of the recent crop.
