Cos he's not good enough.
Watched him this weekend & he had one of his all too frequent poor games, which reminded me exactly why we sold him.
He's one of those players who on his day looks like he'd be perfect but all too often he doesn't play anywhere near that well.

He's not going to Tyneside ... Going to Palace.
Shelvey? Why not? Another mid-table player to add to the bunch we have already.
£10m? Not enough. Offer £15m (plus add-ons) just to get the deal done.

Too inconsistent. He's hardly lit it up for Swansea. I doubt he would work hard enough for Klopp's liking.
He's talented and can pick a pass but is a real hothead and the times I've see him, he often seems to be flirting with a straight red card. I liked him when he was here. I thought that with a few more seasons under his belt, he'd have matured and grown out of that playing-with-a-chip-on-his-shoulder attitude but it doesn't look like he has.
From the Swansea squad, I think Ki and Montero are the more interesting ones. Ki always strikes me as a composed player with good ability to pick a pass although he's not blessed with pace, while Montero's burst of speed and tricky feet I like.

That is bizarre. Did he have an instantaneous and short lived injury?
His brain was buffering.
Who the hell records a match on a smartphone?
I reckon, given they were 3-2 down with minutes to go, he was happy to let the player drift past in hope he'd be ahead of their midfield should a quick break develop. Sort of happy to risk a 4-2 if there's a chance of outnumbering Oxford on the break and drawing level.
Or he's still a lazy cunt.
I'd add quasi-laywers to your list of people who shouldn't get involved in transfers based on this suggestion Ross.
Haha
Radio saying this is about to go through. Fee of £12 mill.mentioned.
I iked Shelvey when he played for us, he always wanted to play the ball forward and take risks, he had a decent passing range, and he'd score the occasional beauty too.
But the lack of discipline and rash decision-making, allied with his poor conditioning and fitness, were always going to make it harder for him.
If he had the mentality, discipline, training ethic and willingness to work of someone like, say, Frank Lampard, with whom he shares some similarities, he'd be an England regular

Wasted talent
Shouldn't have sold him.
Like he wouldn't have been our best midfielder right now.
