As long as we don't go back to Spain, with our recent poor record on signings there, I do think maybe some of the better Scottish prem players would be at the level of the Championship.
We signed a right back from hearts last year. Colin decided he couldn't defend so made him a number 10. He scored 11 goals in just over half a season.

We've uncovered a few pearls over the years but few and far between.

Agree that the quality is not there in any depth, but you may be pleasantly surprised. Not going to be an expensive mistake if it doesn't pan out. It would be good if you could get a few signings your comfortable with under your belt as well though.

That has to depend on who's doing the scouting .Laudrups tenure with the mad turk unearthed more than decent footballers comfortably at home in the PL , now we have Jerkins and moneyball and the decline started with them

Montero back and wirh him on the left and Asore on the right there should be plenty of pace on the flanks if nothing else. Looking at the teams on the Swans web site I note that Govea the young left back we signed from Real Madrid in the first team but Yan Dhanda is shown in the under 23's.

Pace is great, but would love them to have the ability to actually play a bit as well.

Watched Red Sparrow the other night with Jennifer Lawrence that’s a tidy watch plus you need a quiet to watch it to get the plot. You have a bit of double bubble as Jennifer is full frontal starkers. Also good watch is Atomic Blond with Charlie Theron, she gets jiggy with the bird from Kingsman. :)

Not everyone`s cup of tea I know but the new Star Trek films are quite good, Early Man, 10 Cloverfield Lane, Thor Ragnarok all fairly funnyish. if you can find it on Netflix I think "Tour De Pharmacy".

I notice you didn't mention the plot , for either film <laugh>
 
It will be interesting to see the squad going to Germany this week. WE might get a better idea of Potter's plans then.
