I know it's perfectly plausible that he's there for family, or it could even be bullshit, but there are more than a few folks suggesting they have seen young Joseph Allen in Swansea today. Edit - Just beaten to it  Swansea haven't even put a bid in so I dobt it's genuine |

Maybe he was told to go to SCFC to speak to a Welshman, and got the wrong end of the stick? |

What's happened to the folk who hide in the trees, i would have thoght knowing he was surpossed to be meeting with Hughes today they'd have been camped out there all day, or perhaps they meet in Swansea hence why he's there now

Maybe he's pretty adaptable? Do you rate him as a player, Chief? Yeah, Tricky. I'd take him, Allen or McCarthy to be honest. I'm sure I've seen Ki play as an actual holding midfielder a few times. Not as a 'deep lying playmaker' but an actual holding midfielder. Didn't he have an absolute stormer against us for Sunderland playing precisely that role? I seem to remember a few on here raving about him a couple of years back. I don't remember the match you refer to, but I don't doubt you. The few times I've seen him he looked very good. |

Just telling his family that he's moving to Stoke soon.

I haven't clicked it to read the actual article as I'm far too excited from just reading the link itself. I assume we've fucked off Allen & Berahino & are going after Pogba & Messi in this £185 million double swoop! |

I mean we wanted Ki before right? I wonder if Swansea signing Allen will free up Ki, who I happen to think is an excellent player.

He's been to Stoke to meet Mark Hughes. He's been spotted in his hometown in a bowling alley and a fast-food joint.  |

I have it on good authority that there's nothing to worry about, Sparky and Allen just popped in to Toys R us to get Bojan something to keep him good on the flight and then they discussed personal terms over a few rounds of ten pin
Allen is a Stoke player

Strangely I'm quite excited about this signing. Altho I do worry about his aggression, as its a kind of naive aggression.
I can't see him getting away with what he does playing in a Stoke strip

What people need to do is forget about the money. I can't get my head around fans fretting about transfer fees. We KNOW none of them are worth the money paid for them. Why bleat?
Is doing a Portsmouth the new doing a Charlton?

Be a great signing if it happens though I'm still not sure how we'd look at playing him
Allen / Whelan with imbula advanced
Allen / Imbula
Allen / Imbula / Whelan in a 3.

Edit - Just beaten to it Plenty saw Jordan Henderson in Hanley a few weeks ago does that mean he's coming here You are far too smart for some on here, not a hint of wrist slashing does not go down well. |

Keep seeing teams without Bojan in. I really think he's going to be massive for us this season.

£15m for a player who's just made the team of the tournament at the Euros seems a decent price in today's market. |
