Post all the rumors and the players that you would like to see come in during this transfer window here.


I would like to see:

Wing:
Zaha
Sterling
Ince

Strikers:
Jordan Rhodes
Adrian Ramos 11 goals in 17 apps (west Brom, hull and stoke all was sniffing around in the summer)
 
I'd like to see us buy Ince and get Zaha on loan as we are crying out for pace on the flanks. Can't see Sterling leaving Liverpool as he has just broken back into their side.
 
We might not get Ince either as his dad is being touted as a possible candidate for the Cardiff job. If this is true, he just might take it to get back in the Prem and would probably take junior with him.
 
Can't see Ince going there Ivor as there is no way in hell the governor will be dictated to be a clown like Tan.

Swansea City deny approach for Inter Milan's Uruguayan wingback Alvaro Pereira
31 December 2013 11:28 AMBy*Gareth*Rogers

Michael Laudrup has today played down talk of a loan move for 28-year-old Inter Milan star Alvaro Pereira
Swansea City's*reported interest in Uruguayan wingback Alvaro Pereira*has today been played down by manager Michael Laudrup.

The Dane held a press conference before tomorrow's Premier League clash with Manchester City and was unwilling to admit that he's planning a January swoop for the World Cup bound star.

Pereira,**a one-time target for former Spurs*boss Andre Villas-Boas, is also supposedly being tracked by Fulham boss Rene Meulensteen.

But now the 52 times capped South American has fallen down the pecking order at the San Siro, the Nerazzurri are thought to be willing to listen to offers.

The Italians already have a possible replacement in their sights having targeted Atletico Madrid full-back Emiliano Insua.

But when asked about whether he is willing to make a move today, Laudrup would only talk about tomorrow's clash with the Premier League giants.
 
What is the point of another striker if all you are saying they don't get any service..<laugh> what difference will it make..<ok>

The guy who I posted as a rumour above is a wingback not a striker!!!! And also we need another striker because I think Alvaro isn't good enough to lead the team on his own as the single striker! I think he is better off being a CF behind bony if u ask me!
 
well bony is suppose to be a £12 million striker who has done great to cost that amount elsewhere so what is wrong,,,think about it. The same a KI who excelled enough at celtic that a number of clubs were after him and we spent £6 million for him and the poor lad never had a chance with us and he ends up on loan and is now their best player....think about it...nobody has excelled this season for us so again think about it and try to figure out what has gone wrong. I and thousands of others pins it straight at ML's door as our past managers never had any problems motivating the players...think about it..

Dai, this is a thread to discuss potential transfers, please move this post to a more suitable thread <ok>
 
Lescott looking to leave City with reports a Turkish club want him but he would rather staying in the PL. Would love us to try and sign him on loan. We are crying out for a defender of his skill set.
 
http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11728/9096515/transfer-window-swansea-and-crystal-palace-join-race-for-thomas-inces-signature

Sky sources have revealed that Swansea and Crystal Palace have made approaches for Blackpool winger Thomas Ince.

The England Under-21 international has attracted interest from a host of Premier League clubs and Tottenham, Cardiff and Liverpool were also linked with Ince last year.

Swansea and Palace have joined the race for the 21-year-old's signature, just hours after the transfer window opened.

Both clubs are believed to have contacted Blackpool about a possible deal, but it remains to be seen if his father Paul, the Tangerines boss, is willing to let him leave in January.

Ince is thought to have rejected a move to Cardiff in August because he wanted to remain in the north-west with his family.

But he is targeting a place in England's senior side and knows that a move to the top-flight would improve his chances of impressing manager Roy Hodgson.

Speaking in the summer, Ince said: "I have been playing for England under-21s, and if I am under consideration for the senior squad, might not a Premier League platform help make it happen? Especially in a World Cup season."
 
We needed a winger before Pablo got injured so hopefully the board won't haggle for to long and get the deal done quickly.
 
With just a few months left on Tom Ince's contract it is safe to assume that his future is now firmly out his fathers hands, the board will now take full charge of events regarding any offers.

We are currently competing with Crystal Palace. Although the Swans are a more attractive option with regards to prospects we mustn't forget the lure of London for the player. Joining a Premier League in London is always a factor for a young player. Saying that I do not believe Ince would reject the Swans (or South Wales again). <laugh>
 
Let's hope! With us he would be able to shine and develop! We would give him real game time plus playing the style of football that suits his play. Would be a good move for him and us IMO
 
Out

Daniel Alfei - on loan at Portsmouth for the rest of the season

Alan Tate - on loan at Aberdeen for the rest of the season


Possibly In

Rumoured loan attempts by us for; Iago Aspas, Raheem Sterling and Wilfried Zaha.

Particularly strong rumours re: the Liverpool pair, but this doesn't make sense too me.
Rodgers habitually moans about squad depth, why would he bring a couple in this window only to loan a couple out to us?
We should go all out for Zaha just to be the only team in British history who starts with 2 x Wilfrieds in the XI.

We are also linked with transfer moves for Tom Ince and Jack Colback (Sunderland)

All above is strictly paper talk and should be taken as seriously as Vincent Tan's dress sense.
