Swans chose King over Markovic on 17:35 - Jan 31 with 2311 views | TheKirkyLife | Big point here. Has Huw confirmed interest or that the deal has been done? Because Wales Online is reporting that Markovic is done - we just want to get Ayew over the line first as priority. There is absolutely zero point in signing King. Zero. That would be a Jenkins signing all day long. | ![](/images/avatars/18766.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

He'll be ok squad back up, especially if Clucas continues his form and will play a more advanced role. He'll also cover for Fer....for when Fer isn't on the form he was last night. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Must be down to cost Markovic would have given us some creativity and zip. King is a hard working player but not what we need. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Really odd. Just when we are starting to try and get our passing game going we ditch Mesa and bring in a player that has spent all his career in a route one side. He is a poor Jack Cork for me. Still I hope it works out for him and us. | ![](/images/avatars/8905.gif) |

Markovic - 198 Appearances, 30 goals, 26 assists. 0 minutes of football this season. King - 374 appearances, 61 goals, 24 assists. 900 mins of football this season. Out of interest...

The vast majority of kings goals and assists were league 1 and championship though. [Post edited 31 Jan 2018 17:49]

It's not really a fair comparison. Markovic is only 23 and out of King's 61 goals, only 6 of them were in the PL. You're going for potential with Markovic and hoping he can add the creativity and flair. 0 minutes this season is problematic though. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

I understand that but the majority of Markovic's have come in the Serbian league and in the Portuguese league. Aside from the top teams, hardly a enormous step up in terms of quality. I'd have been excited by Markovic if I'm honest but given the fact that we don't have time for a player to get up to speed over a couple of months, I don't think that the decision to sign King over him is as ludicrous as some are making out. For all we know, the Markovic deal was in place in case the Ayew deal fell through. Presumably both were considered for the position Dyer has been playing in and King has come in to cover the loss of Mesa/Fulton? | ![](/images/avatars/13262.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Mesa has been given some god like status among our fans. Clement didn't like him. Carlos doesn't like him. He's made more mistakes that have led to goals per game than I can remember from a Swans player for ages. There must be doubts somewhere, even if that's just he isn't suited to our style. | ![](/images/avatars/13262.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Swans chose King over Markovic on 18:16 - Jan 31 with 1741 views | Headmaster | If this is it, then it's seriously disappointing. We were linked with King well before Carlos was here. I have some hope for Ayew, but it's just another example of this club having no recruitment policy whatsoever and bungling yet another transfer window, perhaps the most important window in years. The sooner Jenkins and his "committee" f*cks off the better. Carlos deserves better than this. | ![](/images/avatars/20219.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
