1728: FOOTBALL - Swansea make an increased bid of around £1.8m for Newcastle winger Wayne Routledge, report BBC Wales.

I'd have thought it wasn't about who gets a bid accepted, it's about where the player wants to go! I'd love him at city

Why would Newcastle accept a lower bid from someone if another club came in with a higher bid, surely they want as much money for him as possible

If one club is in the same division as them.

I am sure that it City (Leicester) want him then they will match the Swans offer

If he doesn't come here than goodness he is going to a Prem side instead of Forest, at least we can give him credit for that.

Swansea are poised to sign Wayne Routledge after having their THIRD bid for the Newcastle winger accepted.

The Premier League new boys tabled a £1.8million offer for the 26-year-old on Saturday after the Toon Army rejected two previous approaches.

It is understood the former England Under-21 international, who stayed in the UK when Newcastle headed to the US for their pre-season tour, will discuss personal terms with Swansea today.

It looks likely that Brendan Rodgers’ men will beat off fellow promoted outfit Queens Park Rangers, as well as Championship duo Nottingham Forest and Leicester, for the midfielder’s signature.

I just cant see this one happening especially now Swansea have had an offer excepted. Shame. IMO we still require a decent winger, of course we can do without but if we want to make that extra push for top 2 then our attacking options from midfield need to be improved, especially in the pace department. I'm struggling to think if there is anyone else who we have been linked to with similar attributes as Routledge. Bar Clyne who most definately could be used as a winger.

Would be a shame to miss out on him but I can understand him picking prem football instead of us. IMO a winger isn't our biggest issue this summer.

Nice to have one though that can give us a different option and style of play to our possible 4-3-3 we will play.

None of our midfielders other than maybe Dyer are out and out wingers and can beat a man and then deliver a good cross.

Shame it looks like this won't be happening, as I do still think we need to add a pacy wideman to the squad.

I'd assume that Sven has got alternatives lined up, and if so then it's probably time to move onto them, I can't help thinking that if the Routledge deal was going to happen then it would have happened by now, especially now that Swansea have upped their bid.

Bit gutted, would have liked Routledge here.

Damn it

Understandable to the Prem though, think we need the extra option tbh and especially the pace, because as it stands at the minute we're not as strong upfront as we were the second half of the season IMO

Have we still got nguessan?

Yes we do. Not that he's gonna get any playing time methinks. He spent 6 months at Southampton in the second half of last season so that might mean he's not in Sven's masterplan. Think he'll be gone by the end of the summer.
