Swansea have bought decent players, but not always a good thing getting a load of new guys in.We have a good squad of players,who know eachother well.
Howard is a decent keeper, Robles will keep him on his toes.
Oviedo and Hibbert provide good cover for Baines and Coleman. As Stones,Alcaraz,Duffy & Heitinga do for Jags & Distin.
We could maybe do with 1 or 2 more midfielders.A ball winning mf, for cover for Gibson. Not sure who. Mohammed Diame maybe?
James Mccarthy would be a good addition also,but perhaps too much money.
Mirallas,Pienaar,Barkley,Deulofeu,Osman offer us that creative spark,while Fellaini is always gonna be a real goal threat for us.
Kone,from what I've seen of him,is an excellent striker and if Jelavic can keep his confidence up we have 2 really good front men. Back up for them is a little bit worrying. Anichebe just isn't good enough imo, he holds the ball up well,but doesnt offer enough more.
Does anyone have an idea how much transfer funds are available to RM,assuming we dont lose Fellaini,Baines?
I don't think there is much left in the coffers. Elstone has implied however that he expects to be busy on transfer deadline day which to me suggests that he is expecting to lose one of Fellaini or Baines. I only think there would be any more if Bill has taken a loan out against this year's tv money, which I hope he hasn't. I'd rather we get it in cash next summer rather than wasting money on borrowing.

We get more money this season, so why borrow against it?
Fellaini and Baines both have not expressed a desire to leave and the only reason for selling would be to improve the squad, in that case I would see Fellaini go. But now the clause has passed, it will be on our terms only
Season start
