[Sky Blue Goblin]

Fuck me i thought my man was lying

Would be a hell of a signing

Gonna need you to be on this 24/7, gonna need updates throughout

[Flying Fokker]

Very excited for this rumour. Everything we need in CM and obviously the next captain for next season.

Will try not to get disappointed when I see a Grimes 48 hours post

defensive rather than Hamer type.

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Reading wanted him.

defensive rather than Hamer type.

With Torp doing the Hamer work, we need a good defensive DM to play the Allen role and hold it together. Vast experience and a leader. Would be golden

From a Swansea reporter:

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Don’t actually care if we overpay for this one just get it done

 

[TomRad85]

Grimes? That's brilliant. Doug in.

What happened to the one-in/one-out thing? There is presumably a decent fee involved here.

 

[fernandopartridge]

If we do end up bringing in another winger and the plan is to go back to 433 then we might.

I think a reality check of sorts would do Bassette some good.

I think that sounds a bit harsh, I think he just needs some time to learn the game and particularly how to work with his back to goal and deal with the physical side of things

 

[gspotgaz]

Get it done !!

 

[fernandopartridge]

It would definitely be the end of Sheaf here so perhaps it's a staggered one in one out.

 

[Chicken Mcgraw]

Makes sense. He’s been poor under Luke Williams and we are in need of that player profile.

Will allow Eccles to cover MVE at right back and relieves the pressure to replace Sheaf straight away in the summer.

Wouldn’t be paying millions though

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

You got his age wrong. So deducting a couple of marks

 

[False9]

Feels like he was the realistic dream signing for us for last 5 seasons

 

[Mr Panda]

My kind of dream championship player. I hated having to watch us against Swansea and Preston because of Grimes and Alan Browne - they just keep everything ticking and controlled.

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.

What an unbelievable signing this would be!

Kai Andrews went

I think that sounds a bit harsh, I think he just needs some time to learn the game and particularly how to work with his back to goal and deal with the physical side of things

I think he’d really benefit from playing week in week out in men’s football at the minute. He’s surviving on cameos and crowd adulation at the moment but has a lot to learn.

 

[JSL]

Get in there. Silence is golden when this stuff comes out of the woodwork

 

[Frostie]

Wow. Now this is the kind of signing we should all be delighted with.

 

[gspotgaz]

Two days time: Sheffield United and Burnley join Coventry in chase for Swansea’s Grimes

 

[SkyBlueStallion_89]

Deadly Doug working his magic! My god if we get Matty Grimes that's fucking unreal! would be a top signing

 

[shmmeee]

Grimes would be an outstanding signing. And even if we don’t get him good to unsettle him before we play them.

Should put a few bids in for Leeds and Ipswich players too

 

[JSL]

It will be interesting to see if Swansea play him against us this weekend

 

[Captain Dart]

If it comes off, a big if.

Will he be in Swansea's team on Saturday?

 

[fernandopartridge]

He's made the most league appearances of any player in the top 4 divisions currently apparently?

 

[Balli001]

Fairly sure its only recently he has missed a minute of league football

If it comes off he’ll be in our team

 

[JSL]

The Lampard pull in full swing

 

[CCFCSteve]

Anyone know how long is left of Grimes contract ?

Anyone know how long is left of Grimes contract ?

Expires June 2027 according to Transfermarket

 

[fernandopartridge]

You'd imagine it's a fee of upwards of £4m
