Wtf is this for real? Lads class.
Not believing it for 1 minute.

Yeah - probably means Allen dropping into the periphery again.
Torp, Rudoni and Sheaf will be big beneficiaries playing alongside. He'll knit everything together
to be fair it is from the BBC and not some lad sharing his Whatsapp messages so it ha better legsthis will end the same way all transfer rumours go
If this comes off I am going to bring back the Dougy King song with my top off in the first 5 minutes.
Matt Grimes: Coventry City target Swansea City midfielder
Coventry City are hoping to sign Swansea City captain Matt Grimes before the transfer window closes next week.
www.bbc.co.uk
It's an actually BBC story not a random rumour so we are after him
For those with longer memories - we had a Grimes in midfield before and that still gives me nightmares.
Not comparing the 2 in any way!

Bit disappointed by this as per my previous comments on Grimes. Players react to different managers tactics etc so not saying it’s going to be a bad signing, but for me he’s not what we need. Often see him strolling around the pitch not putting a foot in when he should, etc. don’t get be wrong he has a wand of a left foot but I think he’s more of a luxury player than what we need….. unless that’s how the swans coaches have asked him to play and he’s a workhorse being held back.
Excellent work if we can get this done before the weekend, we might even beat the bastards for a change.
With him to score the winner, kiss the CCFC badge and shush all their fans after running past their manager smiling?
My lad tells me Swansea fans think hes the 2nd best midfielder in the league after Hamer.Matt Grimes: Coventry City target Swansea City midfielder

Would like to see a WWE-style heel turn during the pre-match warmup on Saturday tbh
If its not true, its a genius dirty tactic to finally get a win away at Swansea
Allen, all due respect to him, is a useful role player. Nothing more, nothing less.
He’s put in a fine string of performances and lately and deserves all the plaudits he’s getting. There’s levels to this and players like Sheaf and Grimes are just 2-3 gears ahead of him.
@Saddlebrains is this the 300+ appearances, 27-29 year old, CM your were talking about the other day?
Agree there. Allen is now in a position where if his contract is extended and he is asked to cover a run of games then none of us would complain at all, however would we want him as a permanent player in that position probably not.
Haha. Stats say he's a class midfielder. Fans say he's "mediocre".
They would if they knew he was on his way out, a bit like how some on this forum said Hamer was a 6 month wonder
Hes been one of the stand out midfielders in the league for number of years.
Case of you dont always appreciate what you have sometimes. Hes just a very good footballer for the role he plays.
Appreciate as fans you are always a little bitter, similar to COH in ways, fans saying hes not that good etc - again hes a very good football player for the role he plays.
Fans in general I don't think have a real clue. But after Gyokeres, Swansea more so than any other don't have a clue.
Excellent signing!
It's similar to some of the views on Sheaf expressed here as it becomes apparent he might have thought about moving on
Doesn't look like they have a fantastic relationship in that picture, jesus
