Dan James to United confirmed for 15m. I can't believe we didn't go after him, he is going to be phenomenal for United. Another Brooks/Maddison signing we missed that will be worth minimum three times his value come the end of the season. His blistering pace and ability to use both feet makes him Prem ready IMO. He was one of the best players on the pitch in Swansea's FA cup match against City this season.

These are the signings we should be making..
(even more ready to make an impact for us than Sess for half his value IMO)

By all accounts it was always Utd. Giggs got involved in the whole process and that was the clincher

He literally doesn’t look anything special at all. Fast, sure - but just because he’s Welsh and fast, it doesn’t mean he’s the next Bale.

Naturally you get 2 sides of any argument with transfers like Dan James. You get those that write him off and those that think we have missed a trick.

The only thing I would say is that at £15m there is very little down side. Half a decent season and his value quadruples and pace is a huge attribute in the English game. I guess time will tell but I think we should certainly be looking to take a punt on players like this. Hopefully Jack Clarke is ours.

If Utd haven't fucked up and given him stupid wages they could easily move him on in 2 years time for twice that to a mid-table club unless he massively flops or breaks down in injury.

Remember when we lost Bale to them and even though we knew it was coming it really fucking hurt when it was official?

I hope the chavs are feeling like that.

I seem to remember we had a good bit of ITK that summer saying he was going nowhere though too. I could be wrong on that.

The only thing that made eased the pain was the excitement of our spending spree with the Bale money.

At least Chelsea fans have got that to look forward to......oh wait they have a transfer ban ?
