Ambitious Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 £10m represents good value in this current market. Technically the best forward in the league, lacks only physical attributes despite having great strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically the best forward in the league, lacks only physical attributes despite having great strength. Through it in NIxon's thread as it's his mouth but I'll ask this in here,Do you think anyone would be willing to pay £10m, anyone in the prem in desperate need of a player like Martin?

You look at players like Glenn Murray, Leo Ulloa...etc and you have to say that Martin is superior, so I guess there would be clubs willing to pay that.If we lost Martin then we would need a complete system change, because I just don't think we could him as a style or player. Comments towards Martin and Hughes, even Ince, like: ''why would he go there and be a squad player'' make me laugh too.All three, with the right manager, system...etc, would comfortably make the step up. Hughes would walk into the Liverpool side, yet people think he'd struggle for whatever reason. I thought Ibe would struggle, but it just goes to show what the right system can do. Hughes as a footballer is a marked improvement on Ibe, as is Ince. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you second pointon the first, I suppose it would be better to lose Martin earlier rather than later then, if we had to lose him, so we have time to develop a new system.

Shang Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I can see why Swansea want him. Imagine having Martin with Ayew and Montero running into the box. That'd be terrifying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idiakez Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I was told Swansea had bid for him by a friend who often gives me some info, he is a bit and miss (more miss than hit) so I didn't really think much of it. Now that I've read that article and Nixon (also hit and miss) has said we turned down big money for a player in the past week or so, I'm wondering if that was the bid he was referring to? Swansea have recently signed Eder, also a target man, and Nixon also mentioned that if the bidder didn't sign their other target then they'd come back for Martin, which hopefully now isn't the case. Not claiming to be ITK or anything which is why I don't bother posting the other stuff I'm told, but it seems like it all ties together nicely, to me at least anyway.Looks like my mate was 90% right. I might see what else he has to say.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gypsy Ram Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Get the ball to Martin's feet and he'll score and set up at any level. I knew from the moment he got injured, so did many, that our session was stuffed.I'm hoping for him to stay and become a derby legend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintRam Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 A lot of Swansea fans don't seem to think Martin would get in the team. In fact some think he'd be 2 or 3 injuries out of the team. They'd **** a chicken if Swansea spent £10m on him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAT Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 No surprise that his name has popped up and doubt it'll be the last time this year. I was surprised there was no concrete offers for him at the end of the 2013-14 season.Pretty assured the staff will do what's right for the club and confident Martin will do what's right for him too.Regardless of where he is next season I hope he does well.

Kernow Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 If we did quote Swansea £10mil, and they ran off it shows that he would be used as a squad player primarily. Martin has already had a spell not getting in a PL side which resulted in him sitting on the bench in L1 for Swindon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcfcreece1601 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I've seen strikers score less goals than Martin and go for more money in the past so personally I'd want ATLEAST 10 if not more depending on who we had as a replacement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has had a good 18 months, after a very indifferent 24 months before (being a free transfer we salvaged from a loan spell with Swindon). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
