majority of the KPAs need to fire their agents & hire new ones. pre-cautionary. Swansea are in Europa after all. injuries pile up... have always viewed Europa as distraction (not much money in it either).
wow. just wow... Sunderland is the last team i follow. where will he slot in and how will PDC use him?
Yeah, not sure if its the obsession with playing time, conflict with laudrup or hmb pressuring players to get more pt ahead of WC or what but its all poor decision at the end of the day and probably a bit of all. Would be awkward to come back midseason if Shelvey/JDG hurt/continue to suck and with Ki having only 1 yr left on his contract, may be aiming to leave Swansea in all cases.
Here it is (nothing we don't already know): http://www.sunderlandecho.com/sport...fielder-ki-on-his-way-to-sunderland-1-6000628
I think this sealed his fate away from Swansea. I don't see him returning to Swansea after this yr. I do expect Swansea to sell him after WC too considering his stock/price could get inflated from WC.
Well this is BS, we're loaning him to a rival and will need him if injuries occur. We've got a long season and there's already been signs in the last two games that someone like him is still needed in the side. Laudrup will more than likely leave at the end of the season, so I'd expect a new manager to come in and at least give Ki a chance so I don't think his Swansea career is over (and I hope that we have some sort of recall option if he does go on loan for the year in case of an injury) but I guess I'll see you next year.
I bet Huw Jenkins is fuming. He bought KSY for the long haul, and I have a feeling if injuries mount or there is a dip in the squad's form, Jenkins will personally active the recall provision. I'm not happy about this loan as well.
Sorry if this a dumb question, but what makes you think Laudrup will leave? Think he will leave to manage a "bigger" club?
Laudrup got into quite a scuffle with Jenkins over the summer to the point where they weren't talking, Laudrup's agent is banned from the premises, etc.
He was linked to Real Madrid at one point. Only a matter of time imo. Michael Laudrup says no to Chelsea and Real Madrid Swansea manager does not want a top job and prefers working for clubs with modest ambitions http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/...ys-no-to-chelsea-and-real-madrid-8508298.html

Farken hell, I'd much prefer Ki stay and fight for his place, than go to that sh!thole that is Sunderland....fck that.
