Loan players are all well and good, until they return to their parent club.
It leaves a big gap and players that need replacing.
Unless of course you loan a player that you might buy.
But younger players from big clubs are just a short term fix, also its trying to do something on the cheap.

Their also no guarantee that they are actually any good. As I have said before plenty of shit players have come through big clubs academies.

Coming from the guy who thinks our academy is full of championship level talent, Liverpool and Chelsea’s isn’t guaranteed to have decent players :lol:

Don't know why everybody thinks that we are long ball merchants and the JB's are a silky pass and move outfit.

Possession on Sunday was 50/50 wasn't it?

They have now signed Gallagher on loan from Chelsea another cooper player from England set up! At this rate can call them swangland.....
But strange one as on loan at Charlton but recalled to go straight out again?

?? How does that equate? 2 are un tested,the 3rd I agree with you,would improve our midfield greatly. You could be right in a couple of years with the 1st 2,but as of yet they are reserve players at their parent clubs. :old: :bluebird:

Charlton are struggling mate.. that's the reason..
1 win out of their last 15 games...would you want a player on loan there ?

Maybe so but as long as getting game time should it matter as they play good football anyway? But as we are not privy to reason for recall we can only speculate? Could be your reason or could be Charlton not playing him and swansea have him with stipulation he plays x amount games?

Re: Now Swansea are after

Wed Jan 15, 2020 6:40 pm

I dont get why City fans are wetting their pants over these 3 loan signings by the scum. I'm sure its because they are selling everything not nailed down and getting in cheap options.
The other thing is they have no chance of signing any of the 3 and are paying money to develop other teams young players.

Next season they get relegated as they have nothing in that shithouse of a club going forward thanks to the Americans :thumbup:

You really doesn’t actually pay any attention to what people write do you. I have never said it is full of champ talent I have said that we wrongly let our most talented youngsters go without giving them a chance and instead waste millions on average old men.

And yes loads of shot players come through big clubs academies. Wether the three Swansea have succed we will have to wait and see but Brewster for example doesn’t impress me one bit the new version of Solanke.

It simple really they are better footballers then most of our squad.
These are good signings the ones we are supposedly trying to make are pathetic.

I don’t understand why people are laughing at them for signing some of the hottest prospects currently available for loan in the country whilst we are trying to sign a striker from Wigan who can’t score a goal in this league and a 31 year old striker who stoke only signed in June and now they want rid.

But those stilly jack bastards signing young hungry players with huge potential and a point to prove. Let’s all laugh at them.

Now most of you won’t admit it because your a little bit weird when it comes to telling the truth on here but there’s two things that they are light years ahead of us at. Recruiting managers and recruiting players. Let’s not laugh at them because they are ‘cashing in’ an selling there players whilst we sign strikers for 6 million pound and then have to pay his contract up because nobody wants to take the fucker off us.

Ahhhh so teams only want youngsters to play for a winning team? Theres me thinking a loan move was to help their development as players in all sorts of scenarios? But hey oh what do I know. :?

You have changed your tune. Not so long ago you were busy telling me our squad was the envy of the championship. Now we have wasted millions on average old men. Not too dissimilar to what I have been saying all season. Strange.

A player will develop less in a losing team that’s just fact and common sense. They will just return to there club with zero confidence.
