Please extend his contract, he was immense today, Swansea’s right back must have been out of this world to let him go |  | | |  |

I believe there is some work going on to extend to the end of the season. He is our Spanish 'Hill'. |  |

He gets it and he cares big time. How we could have done with that in the Hughes/Redknapp era. |  | | |

We just like watching Rangel?
I'd also like to see Furlong in this team. I reckon he'd love playing alongside Leistner.
What a great position to be in with those two fighting it out for RB. |  |

.....and through it all
he offers us protection
a lot of love and affection
with or without the ball
and there in front of goal
whoever tries to break him
you know they just can't take him
when he's on the ball
so sorry Furlong
I'm loving Angel instead | | | |

100% the guy is running around like a 21 year old. | | | |

Gave the BFG a right earful first half.
An absolutely outstanding addition this season |  |

I thought he was superb today. Clearly loves playing for us - a class act and we need to get him signed up. | | | |

Well done.
Not a bad effort there. |  |

Going back to the op. Swansea have a young welsh lad called Connor Roberts playing in that position now and Kyle Naughton. Not that I'm saying they're any better than Rangel but would be ridiculous for a Championship side having those 3 in that position. | |

The only problem with this is still there. Rangel has been immense for us thus far, Geoff Cameron likewise. If we end up not getting promoted, however, aren't we just costing Scowen and Furlong each a whole season of development? I can't argue with the signings, at 0-4 we were hurtling down to the third tier, but will they be our players next year? They surely can't be around too much longer at their age. Are we really so sure that swapping Geoff Cameron for Josh Scowen is the reason this turnaround has happened, as that (imo somewhat disrespectful) graph appeared to be alluding to?
i don't suppose there is much to be done about it. You'd have to be a fool to drop either of them now, that's for certain. But this may be a move which doesn't actually help us out longer term.
I suppose i should just dwell on the positives here, without them we were dead in the water. Shouldn't have been in that position, though. Robbo, Chief, blah blah. |  | | |

Rangel will always be a Swansea legend and no doubt would have become part of the coaching set up had he decided to hang his boots up. In the PL his lack of pace was shown up occasionally but his football intelligence usually saved him. In the last season he played infrequently usually from the bench.
Conor Roberts is playing out of his skin and with the high pace pressing game we are playing I think Potter was unsure if he wanted Rangel or not, our side is now made up of predominantly players from our U23 set up I think Rangel would have struggled for game time as have Nathan Dyer and Wayne Routlidge.
Great to see him playing so well and enjoying his football.
One issue for you will be his family as he is a great family man and his wife is a local girl who still lives in Swansea with his children, I doubt she would move for a 1 year contract. |  |

One year playing contract then move onto the coaching staff?
Furlong gets another year to develop with Rangel directly involved in bringing him on. | | | |

I can't stress how impressed I was with him yesterday, or since we signed him really. I'll admit when we first signed him I rolled my eyes based on his age alone and the short term contract but boy has he proved me wrong!
Something I don't think gets the 'praise' it deserves is his ability on the ball. He's probably one of our more talented passers of the ball and his ability to not only put a good cross in from deep (eradicates some of the downside from his age / pace on the overlap) but he also switches the play regularly which really helps us. |  | | |
