    While Brendan is indicating it's defence and midfield he'll strengthen further there could be a top class striker pinched from under our noses.

    Leicester reported to be lining up 3 million bid for him.

    Cox knows where the goal is (looks down the pecking order at Baggies )and has been a known Brendan and Swans target.

    He looks tailor made for us somehow ...with Cox being ex Reading the Swans manager knows the character as well as what he brings playing wise.

    We know central midfield and full backs need strengthening but the transfer kitty is healthy enough to capture this guy as well

    Whenever anyone mentions players at West Brom it sends a shiver down my spine. Remember what the Baggies said about Beattie and Moore?

    Sorry but I can't see how Cox is any less of a gamble than Graham.

    Cox has looked good in League One with Swindon and then got 10 goals for WBA in the championship but the fact that he only got half a dozen games and one goal for WBA last season hardly fills you with confidence that he is really a premier league quality striker.

    Graham had a better Championship record and has not yet had the opportunity to prove himself at this level whereby Cox has had that and obviously not made it yet.

    As long as we are going to be going with one up front I'm thinking we aren't going to be spending £3m plus on a striker to sit on the bench, whichever of the two that would be.
