    • @williamhadley549
      @williamhadley549 Před 3 lety +25

      I'm a Swansea supporter, and Swansea are a selling club. If Michu had a successful second season at Swansea City, he would have got snapped up by Tottenham or Chelsea or Arsenal, any top team really. Being 5th in the League didn't stop Newcastle getting related a few years later. It would have been been nice to see Swansea City do really well for longer than just a season or two. But it can happen again. If we get promoted this season and buy the right players, keep Steve Cooper as a manager, who's doing an excellent job, then there's no reason Swansea can't be another Leeds United or Wolves -- having top clubs be afraid of the dynamism and strength of the squad. The ability to cause an upset

    • @alexmcknight8736

      @@williamhadley549 I am also a swans fan. Personally although what Cooper did is great, I'm not sure if I feel comfortable with him anymore with his flaws especially if we were to go up. And with the selling, I've always hated it. It has been depressing seeing the class we have come through our club just to go after a season or 2. Hopefully though one day if we ever did become like one of those clubs and maybe get into Europe through top 6 then they might decide to actually keep our talent and hope to compete at that level instead of being happy making some money and sitting mid table

      @@alexmcknight8736 Players like Fabianski would have stayed at Swansea, if we hadn't been relegated, lol. It's amazing to see him do well at West Ham, and Gylfi Sigurdsson at Everton. Even Llorente playing in a Champions League final!!! It's a shame we lose all that talent, you're right.
      However, I fear the only way we're gunna be keeping them in the future longer than 2 or 3 seasons, is by having another financial takeover, with the aim to win trophies. Though extremely hard with Man City winning everything...

      @@alexmcknight8736 Yeah when I started watching the Prem Swansea still had a great squad. One of the few Championship or lower teams that I actually have a liking to (I'm a neutral and not from the UK), it was just nice seeing a Welsh team doing decently in the first division. I was hoping Cardiff could've replicated that, but, not to be morbid or anyting, but the way they managed Sala's death made me lose* all sympathy for them. Regardless, Swansea in the early to mid-2010s was class. Maybe this season you'll go up? Good luck on that.
