Joe Allen back to Swansea? Martin hopes so but would it be right?

[Swansea93]

12 clubs in for him apparently

Based on his last 2 years at Stoke he's been injured and form dipped dramatically. Is this not an emotional signing we're chasing based on Allen of yesteryear or can he add real value for his wage demand?

 

[Risc]

People close to Allen seem to be working overtime getting his name in press about coming back. OTJ saying he would come back for a quarter of salary he’s currently on etc.

I have a feeling the Americans will pull plug on this one aswell due to the no sell on value.

 

[Ringwood Jack]

Is he not out of contract? would this be no different to Naughton as a contract extension?

It's up to him, he already doesn't have to lift a finger financially wise for the rest of his life, come and see his playing days out with us for 7 to 10k a week or go and chase even more wonga elsewhere.
I'm up at 4am for work in the morning for nowhere near 7k a week, so basically, fuk him :lol:

Stoke have signed a CM from Reading which might mean Allen is not signing a new deal there

When he’s played for Wales in the last few weeks he’s looked like the Joe Allen of yesterday year… he’d definitely improve our midfield… no brainer for me.

Joe saw the new home kit and changed his mind by all accounts.

Think we can knock this on the head now can't we. Wonder if it's a repeat performance-ish of what happened last time when Allen's stock rose after Euro 2016 with his stock increasing, albeit far less than last time round after the World Cup play-off final. Although, I did see some guys who, presumably, know little about football and the importance of a mid-fielder who does the dirty work, say on Twitter he was abysmal.

Unless Fulton goes within the next week I reckon it's pretty safe to assume Joey won't be back personally.

The international players are still away on holiday so will be interesting to see if he signs next week, Dhanda has left so that frees up one space :lol:

I’d imagine if we can get Bennett out the door to Reading it would help us quite significantly

All eyes are on you now

No inside information at the moment… hopefully I’ll be told as soon as anything happens.

Not even hiding the fact nowadays is Joe. Was desperate when we were in premier league before going to stoke, and even more so now.

Come on home Joey
