Swansea's Shrewdness or Wycombe's Folly? The Richard Kone Standoff and the Transfer Window's Looming End

Well if someone meets the the £5M fee and we don't bring in a suitable striker in this window then folly sits on our door step.
 
I agree with thev article, but to me what is glaring is if bthe player wanted to come he would be here by now all he has to do is sak for a transfer, think the swans are doing the correct thing

Not really, because they want more than we want to pay (after 2 hefty bids), and appear to be holding out while hinting bigger clubs are after him, then we've done the correct thing. Desperation is a bad look. When we signed Inoussa there were a few who questioned how we could afford the 5 million or 6 million fee, and why we were spending it. Seems a clear case of damned if you do, and damned if you don't.

Disagree, as I said on the other Kone thread this is as much about principles and precedent as it is about the transfer.
Clubs and chairmen talk, if we get taken for mugs and over pay for a player with poorly constructed transfers/addons then that gets about.

Will I be disappointed if we don't sign Kone now that McBurnie is almost a shoe in for going to Hull? Yes
Do I think we won't get in a striker at all? No
Am I in panic mode? No

I agree with our stance we have made a good offer personally I don't think he's worth £5 million and glad we are not being blackmailed into paying it
