Siggy's far from the best in the squad, but shouldn't be first out the door imo.
He's who Swansea wanted though I guess? Erikssen, Lamela, Holtby, Siggy - we don't need 4 number 10's.We NEED a LB and we NEED a reserve goalie. I don't think Siggy was marked for the chop but seems like sensible business to me.

According to the papers we are in the driving seat for Bony as well which will please some on here.
Will it not please you? I'd be a little bit jell tbh, he knows where the net is.Also I don't get Vorm? whats the point? weve just given Lloris a new 5 year contract.

Didn't some of your spuddy bedfellows suggest that was merely a way to get a good return when PSG come knocking in a couple of weeks?
Yeah that's the way it certainly looks. Levy opting for the money just for a change.... Sensible long-term by Levy but I'd be amazed if PSG bid during this window. If they wanted him, you'd expect them to tell him not to sign a new contract. Sounds to me that PSG are in a bit of a mess over FFP and probably won't be splashing bug cash this window.

That doesn't make a great deal of sense, if you presume that Lloris people have already discussed terms etc with PSG. If he wanted to go to PSG, why sign a 5 year contract and potentially jeopardise the deal by adding another 10-20m to his price?

I doubt he has already spoken to PSG but it makes sense all round we get to keep him for this season he gets a pay rise then we get a decent fee next summer when he goes.Sensible long-term by Levy but I'd be amazed if PSG bid during this window.

Oh for sure. I just don't believe that there will be a bid this year. Doubt any big money deals happen without at least a few conversations between agents before a bid is made. Does Hugo fancy coming to PSG and if so, what sort of money does he want?So either Lloris has knocked them back, they don't have the money/prepared to spend what it will cost or it's all pure speculation and there has been no approach from any of the parties. Besides, they already have the Italian no.2 and Buffon's eventual replacement. Given how much they have spent already on players (£50m for David Luiz.....) I doubt that £20m+ for a goalie is high on their agenda.
So expect Vorm to start come August
