We Need To Make De Guzman Happen 08:09 - Aug 8 with 12258 viewsPhil_S

Today's Western Mail reports that Jonathan De Guzman could almost find himself without a club for the new season with tomorrow's friendly opponents Villarreal not wanting the Dutchman for the new season and no deal in place for him to return to the Swans where he has been so successful for the past two years.

Is there a wage issue here I wonder? He may be angling for more cash with QPR and Palace sniffing about. I'd say if that was the issue we stand our ground. I'd like him back but not if the wage demands are too high...

unless Garry just doesn't want him full stop.

I was expecting him to be presented to the crowd before the game tomorrow.

Well I wonder if they've had any conversation since the interview when he stated that he hadn't spoken to JDG and never mentioned that he would.

I would like De Guz back obivously but the board may feel we have other priorites namely in defence and defensive mid. No getting DG might be a price worth paying if it means we bring in quality in those positions.

No club for the coming season and yet he is still on "extended holiday" - seems strange. OK, Holland got to the semis but those were almost a month ago. Even if he came in now, he's not going to be ready for a couple of weeks minimum.

Also seems bizarre that there are no takers for a Dutch international midfielder of his quality.

If it's a straight choice between de Guzman and a defensive midfielder, then I'd have to go for the DM. Incidentally, is he training with anyone at the moment?

Wasn't the reason for Villareal not wanting sell him something to do with a sell-on clause? I.e. keep loaning him out for a hefty fee, then letting him go cheap or free at the end of his contract to avoid paying out to his previous club

In my opinion, we don't want to pay £5m for him when we have Ki.

Not saying I agree with that but that's how it seems to me.

It does look like we have an opportunity to move Ki on to Villa, and if that is a possibility I'd prefer to do that and put the money towards signing JDG.

Watching JDG in the latter part of last season and in the World Cup, he seems short of pace. He never really sprints to make an interception, or chase a through ball.
I wonder if he's carrying some sort of injury. Its the only reason I can think of.
If he's fit, go get him.

A bit harsh!

Amazed that we haven't even spoken to him though...still, who needs it when we've got Monk's huge contact book. Oh, hang on...

Probably worth fcuk all but his "official" website still uses a pic of him in Swans kit on the homepage when it could easily have been switched for one in a Dutch kit.

Warick...I'm not having a pop but how do you know that we have not spoken to him/his agent?

Really? Easy to talk the talk - perhaps he should learn to cut out the bullshit if he wants to be taken seriously.

Apart from being made to look a bit silly by saying he wanted the transfer business done before the World Cup, he also said we'd be surprised by his contacts in the game.

Surprised? Not really...

Gylfi - former player
KIngsley - target from last year
Fernandez - target from last year, on telly at World Cup
Besic - target from last year, on telly at World Cup
Clasie - target from last year, on telly at World Cup
Fabianski - well publicised free transfer touted around the PL by his agent
Gomis - target from last year
Montero - had a stormer at the Liberty a few years ago, on telly at the World Cup

We probably have. Not sure what's to gain by saying we haven't been in contact with the player.

Perhaps we haven't got his phone number

Or perhaps Villarreal are trying to charge us at premium rate for the phonecalls.
