He was good - but Michael Laudrup is by far the best one you have had, but your chairman messed that up ! by not keep his word to Laudrup - shame because he could have attracted even better players to Swansea.

The Laudrup era....
at 13:26 25 Mar 2014

Just to make everything clear, im not posting this to make anyone upset or disrespect the decition to fire Laudrup as a coach. The reasons for letting Laudrup go have been many - but Laudrup is one of the most honest coaches in football, he was that as a player and as now as a coach. If he feels that any promises given to him is not meet, he will become a problem, because he is a mand of his word, and expect that of his chairman aswell. Many claims Laudrup causes problems in the clubs he represent, but the same "problem" occurred in Getafe, Spartak Moscow and Mallorca FC - he was given promises and the chairman let him down by not keeping his promises regarding transfers and other issues.

What im trying to say is that when The Swans signed Laudrup I was a following the team every weekend, I have not been a Swans fan before - but Laudrup gave Swansea the players that made them play wonderful offensive football, and the top scorer in Michu.
Im just so sorry to see Laudrups contract terminated - because he gave the club so much.

Injuries (especially Michu with his 22 goals last season) combined with the fact that bigger clubs now see Swansea as a top 10 club and do NOT underestimate them made this season a bit harder for Laudrup, but still he beat United at Trafford and still he took The Swans further in the Euro-league - when I saw Monk putting in reserves against Everton in the FA cup I was stunned ? - what about the big win at Trafford.

I hope you Swans fans see how good Laudrup was for the club - its ok to get som fresh blood sometimes if the results is bad - but I dont see it as bad coaching from Laudrup. Monk is struggeling the same as Laudrup with injuries from some of the best players in the squard, and no one can win with 1/4 of the best players absent.

Hope The Swans stays in the Prem - im not following the team as close anymore but hope for the best.

Im a dane, so im sorry for spelling mistake :)
