I too think he's been brilliant for us, & I'd love to see him on a permanent deal here. Fingers crossed it ain't his knee that's gone again (although it looked suspiciously like it to me). Here's to the lad making a full & speedy recovery innit.

From The Argus..........Poyet played down fears over Marcos Painter, who was stretchered off in the final minutes, though Albion will know more tomorrow.
He said his left-back had taken a blow to the thigh and said: "It doesn't look bad. We need to check it.
"It's not the right time to get injured at Easter, with not many people working!"
Fingers crossed.

It is but if Swansea offer him a contract that is at least the same terms as he's currently on then they'd be entitled to a fee if he declined it and signed elsewhere. No club would ever likely bother doing this for a player such as Painter who they (possibly) don't really want and they wouldn't get much for.
Is he really only 23 though??
He doesn't play like it. Hopefully nothing serious, though if it is McNulty should be given a chance, why people feel the need to write him off as useless now just because Painter is quality is beyond me.
I posted this on Sunday, but worth repeating - at the Tranmere game I sat quite close to his Dad and sister/partner (sorry, not sure which). After the game I had a quick chat with him and he said that Marcos was loving it at Brighton and really wanted to stay next season. Fingers crossed.....

We did it last summer with Owen Tudor Jones who went to Norwich there was no way we wanted to keep him we ended up with £250,000 but a lot was based on apperances and promotion he have hardly played but the promotion bit will be right. Painter is actaully 24 in August so maybe they will just give up on him he was ever present when we won league 1 and I think he will do well with you, I think that injury sounds not too serious if its his thigh.

have you ever seen a grown man naked?
Yeah, fingers crossed. It almost sounded like (and granted it's hard to tell on the radio) that he went down with a pain in his leg and immediately feared it was the knee again, hence the stretcher, etc. But was back up again (abeit gingerly) when he realised it wasn't.

Who's Next?
Hope that's right Jim. Locking in Painter, Calderon, LuaLua and so on (and of course Gus) would be a real statement of intent for next season.
Sounds painful. Is the website sharp?

Physio: Marcos, how soon can you stand?
Painter: I can't tell.
Physio: You can tell me. I'm a doctor.
Painter: No. I mean I'm just not sure.
Physio: Well, can't you take a guess?
Painter: Well, not for another two minutes.
Physio: You can't take a guess for another two minutes?
