“This club is the best place for us”

[JA News]

Russell Martin is a man who has not veered all season from the belief that he is working with a long term project here at Swansea City and that, despite setbacks like Monday afternoon, everything is working to plan as that project develops.

*Or are sacked

I can totally get the Roberto anger, however I fail to see what reason people could have to tar Rodgers under the same brush.

It is commonly accepted wisdom that everyone knew he was going to move on to something bigger and better and he that signed a new contract with the Swans to put them in a better bargaining position for his compensation. And of course he paid us £15m quid for Joe Allen which at the time was astounding business.

Rodgers - Mostly because of what he said and did at Watford, so, yeah, maybe unfair with us, although I seem to recall him teasing us with how happy he was here. He did do the decent thing with the compo for sure, but no doubt a big pay rise was tied into it to protect him if no one came in for him willing to pay the compo. I remember a fair bit of anger at the time, so I'm not sure it was that accepted as going to happen. In fact I remember unbridled crowing that he'd 'turned down' Liverpool.

My point is why come out with this pointless false bullshit. They are all in it for themselves, as I would be. Why pretend.
