Wales' Connor Roberts hopes to play for Swansea again

Not a bad player, but I've never seen him try to beat a man with pace down the line....way too content to pass the ball sideways or back...
 
We won't need Connor back anytime soon, nor Rodon or James. We are going to be shopping at Harrods, player-wise, in January for our push toward automatic promotion back to the promised land when our new director gets his big, fat wallet out.

The next level. 😎

Contract is up in the summer and will be going into next season soon to be in his 30s.
If he wants to come back then I hope it's with still some gas left in his tank and not for a cushy contract going into his twilight years.
If Key isn't going to sign a contract then this could be an opportunity that might suit both parties come the summer.
He’s been blowing out of his arse when I’ve seen him lately. I’d rather we’re not used as a sentimental retirement home (see also Joey). So it’s a no from me. Had he come back a couple of years back when Burnley first got relegated, that would have been a different matter.
 
We don’t need signings driven by sentimentality, we need to get back to the model of finding hidden gems, developing them and selling on as a means of enhancing our future growth.

New owners won’t mean bucket loads of cash being thrown around, and it certainly won’t be spent on one last payday for the boys. There’s still FFP rules to comply with.
Spot on Coops.
 
many making the same mistake we made as a Premier League Team. Both Joe allen and Brendan Rodgers wanted to come back here.
the board felt we had too many midfield players and were not prepared to pay the fee for Joe who was in last year of his Liverpool contract. Joe went To stoke in stead we signed Clucas. Masterstroke.
Brendan was on route down but was told not to bother we kept Guedolin. Masterstroke.
Come up to date Connor Roberts is a Jack through and through and a current International. It would be disastrous to make Master Stroke No 3

Would Roberts get in the team before Key?

It's a no from me based on what I've seen which is quite limited when it comes to Roberts, I must admit.

He may well do but it won’t be a signing that represents great value for money.

Last thing we need is Bony, Ayew type signing. Granted on a slightly less wage.

Hopefully the scouting network has evolved from those days.
 
I see Key's future further up the pitch even maybe midfield. Why some of our fans would turn their noses up at a international footballer wanting to join us is beyond me. How many times have targets turned us down to then sign for a " lesser " club. He's not going to demand brewsters he'll be acutely aware of our financial position. I know the need to sign young,hungry and cheap lower league players and polish them up BUT for every 1 key we sign we'ved signed 10 Mckays

Not sure fans are turning their noses up. There is more of a question of the worth he would add to the squad.

Let's be honest if he wasn't an ex player this wouldn't even be a conversation.
 
Your right there wouldn't be a conversation, if an international with 59 caps that plays in the most competitive league in Europe says he wants to come to Swansea we'd bloody well snap his hand off
