    First of the pre season friendlies, should be a nice warm up for the Swans and a chance for new signings to get game time, plus for the guys to get match time.

    What new signings? Have I missed something? Have we signed Go-miss replacement? looking like another relegation battle again this season, incredible that we are going into this new season with no official striker only Jinx could come up with that, where's Dai when you need him..............................<laugh>

    Well there are 4 players signed, I gather 2 of them are in the States right now, with the other 2 joining the development team. We've only got a couple of games there so let's see what happens when they come back.

    I appreciate we have made some low level signings and secured some existing loan players, but this has been even by our own standards a very poor transfer window, I just hope we get in some real talent up front, as another season like last season, could do some irrepairable damage to our team confidence. ........ <ok>

    What you mean the second best season we've had in the premier league? Despite the liability we had for half of it. And Phil the transfer window is open for another 7 weeks, so hardly a poor one considering we got most of it still to come. The season starts a month from now, that means we have time to bring players in.

    I appreciate there is still time to bring in players, but with pre-season underway it is going to afford less time for the squad to jelly. ......<ok>

    My hope fo preseason is that Franco is encouraged enough to look at a step up from our youngsters. On that subject from the videos McBurnie looks to be filling out physically. Who knows he could be our surprise up front.

    I am sorry mate I hope not, maybe in the League Cup or whatever it is called now. He wasn't getting game time whilst on loan at Newport, surely he isn't ready for the PL. Saying that we may have to play him.

    I understand what you are saying but at what stage do we give these players a chance. Harry Kane didn't impress initially and if Rashford hadn't been given a chance last season nobody would have heard of him We spent money om Eder, Gomis and Tabanou which has proved to have been a total waste. I am not suggesting to start him right away as I think Ayew can lead the line to start with as long as Siggy and Fer are encouraged to support him.but certainly McBurnie should be on the bench.

    I am waiting for someone to say who needs a striker this year we have McBurnie and he has just scored in his first game against the equivalent of Garden Village.

    I have a feeling though we may se a bit of Gorre this season though.
