Scott Sinclair (continued)

[Left Peg]

We can turn this to our advantage.

Scout out a young fast impact winger from one of the other major leagues. doesn't have to be Ronaldo. Get it done and dusted for £7m. Then make it obvious that this was a direct consequence of Swansea being greedy over SS.

Send a message that we won't be held to ransom, we aren't soft touches and we won't let people take the piss.

So what's to say another team won't play hardball over the price (if that's what Swansea are doing)?

 

[DTKOAG]

Are we desperate for him? I wouldn't have thought so, hopefully we'll leave it to the last day and see who blinks first.

THIS.

 

[SWP's back]

We must be the only club in the world without a proper winger now, unbelievable really. We can get a good winger in three days but it's requires confidence in our negotiating team who haven't done much to instill faith this summer.

Hate to say it but, as we don't really play with wingers.....

Nor do Barca.

They have pace in the front 3. That's what Sinclair would be for.

 

[Super David Silva 21]

Walcott or Redmond then for me if were looking for an out n out winger.

That's fair enough and probably why we haven't bothered ever spending fortunes on a top class winger but to not have any at the club even to offer as an alternative off the bench is fucking nuts imo.

 

[Bluemanc100]

I'd wait till Friday then make a lower offer.

I'd agree with this but we are already a laughing stock and whether the press have it bang on or they are a million miles away, we still look like goomers in this transfer window. The situation actually looks worse because after a summer of leisure, Hazzard in particular looks like the "one that got away"

Very frustrating if you ask me

they also have alexis sanchez, a player mancini was desperate to get.

But Barca have wide options - Pedro, Afellay, Tello, Cuenca, Sanchez.

Even if a club doesn't utilise natural wingers a lot, the option needs to be there and City obviously think so too or they wouldn't bother replacing Johnson.

If we're sticking with cheap homegrown, could see Nathan Redmond being next on the list. Walcott and Sturridge probably too expensive/wages/playing demands.

That's true of course. Our reputation preceeds us wherever we go, but I'd be hopeful we could sign someone.

I have given my head a wobble and stopped flapping. A couple of posters on here are talking sense. It is the case of who blinks first and we should wait until Friday to see on how it pans out.
