SWP to Barcelona?

[King Kev]

Wasn't SWP one of the lads getting racist abuse when England played Spain? I'm sure he'd jump at the chance to go over there.

Ha ha, very true. I reckon Spain is quite low down on Shaun's list of places he wants to play!

[Gloryhunter123]

Right its simple if they give us one of the following players: Xavi, Iniesta or Messi they can have him.

[CityFanFromRome]

Can't see it happening tbh.

[Good Times]

As much as I love the guy, it's glaringly obvious that most defenders now know how to play against him. He's been sussed and rarely beats a defender these days. Shame really, cos I love having the lad at the club.

Seems a bit of a surreal transfer story, to be frank.

Never looks fully fit to me. When he's at his sharpest he beats them just as easily but he seems to lack the spark & energy sometimes. Think it's down to knocks/niggles & the oppo know it so kick him a lot early in games.

08/09 Premier league statistics

83 - Shaun Wright-Phillips made more successful dribbles than anyone else this term.

That would indicate that you are one of the people I was talking about earlier. NO winger in this galaxy always beats his fullback but SWP does it more than anyone else on the league.

[Rag_hater]

If he is playing as bad as some would suggest why would Barca supposedly be interested in him . On top of that Don Fabio keeps picking him.
I dont think he is playing badly at all and has been one of our most consistent performers this year

[Somerset Blue]

No no no. Mustn't be allowed to happen.

[Michael Brookes]

Weren't they after him first time around? (i remember quotes from Deco at the time)

The only way Sweep will leave is if he hands in a request which I eally dont think he would.

Also.. just seen it on SSN too.

[eastlandsblue]

If he or his advisors arnt happy with his currant contract, then get rid. He has'nt done enough to warrent a new one anyway.

[dikdik]

Maybe at a push in exchange for Xavi, Iniesta AND Messi....

[10.Goater_Legend]

This has got to be bollocks surly?.

Get the boy a new contract and let's see him at his best over the coming years.

[ashton287]

He has 3 years to run on his contract, call me old fashioned but with 3 years left why on earth is there any need for a new one for a guy who will be nearly 32 when the current one expires?????? Yes we love SWP, but we are not a charity either.

That said I would be amazed if Barca were genuinely interested in him.

if i had a choice of keeping shauny on instead of some of the other dead weight i would keep him till he wants to retire cos he is the best player and advertisement for our academy and a genuinely nice guy, i want a shauny testimonial when he retiers still wearing a blue shirt

plus the only reason we sold him to chelsea was we were poor and £21 million was an offer we couldnt really refuse but £7 mil you can fuck right off barca you cunts

Agree. I didn't even read the report when I saw the link.

[Beefymcfc]

Absolute poppy-cock! Obviously his old man his pushing it out there!

[paulmclaren]

That wanker of his dad Ian is making all the shit up again.
He has 3 years left on his current deal, no doubt on 60k-80k 'per week'.
What in the fucking hells need is there for a new contract?
Jesus fucking christ, i hate footballers, money grabbing wankstiens.
Really.
Fuck off if you do not want to stay.
Wankers

totalfootballmadness haha

I'm surprised people are surprised that Barca would be interested in SWP. I think he'd be absolutely fantastic at Barca, tho possibly depending on his mental state. He didn't exactly settle into top form for any length of time at Chelsea; couldn't quite seem to get his head right to be as confident as he is at City. It would be a massive culture change and he might not adapt, I realise this is purely speculative.

Either way we should do everything we can to prevent this happening. I really value him as a player and thinkhe has a big part to play.
