One of the most overrated players I’ve ever seen in a Swans shirt.
He’ll probably have good stats today though and we’ve got him for the next four years too.
 
Crap today. Not normally that crap. Not as good as some make out. Decent but Ordinary and functional. Never a captain. Downes is 10 times the player.

He’s massively overrated.

Agreed. Saw the game on stream, thought beforehand he needed to step up today...but he fckn infuriates me. Looks after himself first.
 
Darran, they don't watch the game mun, he gives the ball away in stupid areas and teams counter attack easily from him, he even slipped over like he's up mynedd newydd and Boro should've made it two.. he's been doing this consistently, yet he's so highly regarded.. he's conned so many, it's starting to get delusional levels with him, even by those inside the club.. oddest oddest Swans love in I've ever seen

Great post Skip.
 
Grimes is a decent player at this level. No more, no less.
But ffs keep him away from free kicks and corners, his delivery is shocking.
 
A good player but not good enough for a club wanting promotion, only still here because nobody else wanted him enough, his big chance to prove people wrong who doubt him came in the play off final, he didn't step up , hope he makes me eat these words someday but I doubt it

You're both being silly. He's not 'overrated', he's 'rated', as proven by Potter, Cooper and Martin all using him as the pivot.

I said when he signed his new contract that people would be falling over themselves to highlight his every mistake and I've been proven right again. FACT. :lol:

He's not Messi, he's a mid to high level championship player and we're a mid to high level championship team. Duh. :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
I’m sure it’ll be Downes’s fault that Grimes was so, well, Grimes. He’s a decent player. Nothing more or less than that.
 
Something like three goals and three assists in 70+ games. Those figures are atrocious for someone who takes almost all of our set pieces and apparently dictates our play. He does nothing that couldn't be done by basically every other midfielder in the squad, yet somehow he retains the armband and a guaranteed place in the side.

I was looking forward to him moving on this window. Shame.

Of course he is not Messi

Fulton is Messi, keep up :lol:

And Whittaker is Ronaldo in the making
