    Just saw that. This would be awesome but there are some bigger clubs in for him as well it seems. Maybe he'll have a word with the other Spaniards in our set up and they'll sway him our way

    A quality player who is just up our street and if it comes off i'll be happy with our striking options.

    We certainly need as many attacking options as we can get - Soriano, Danny Graham, Scott Sinclair & Steve Dobbie should all get us goals, but not sure about Beattie or Moore.

    well if true it will by the looks of things be a good signing, we have spanish players at our club, plus we play a style of football that compares with barca, plus brendan speaks fluent spanish I understand, but it doesn't say is it a loan or are we buying him.

    We shall see on the club site soon I think.

    I think this is the guy to give Dobbie competition for his role in our midfield.

    The guy is an out and out striker though isn't he?!

    Looks like the BBC are getting rumours off not606 to me...

    Well we are the Barcelona of the Premier , it just seems fitting he should come to Swansea & feel at home I suppose . Looks like were tracking a good one though . Seems Huw & Buck are working hard on the sly , the dynamic duo !!

    I brought it up recently... Beattie won us points without which we wouldn't have been promoted, and while I'm not his biggest fan, calling him useless is a little harsh I think.

    My point stands. He's so rubbish, he hit a left footed half volley into the bottom corner away at 'Boro in the 94th minute to get us 3 (ultimately crucial) points. He deserves some respect at least.

    If we get a decent offer obviously look at it, but I don't like players being knocked.

    I doubt beattie will feature in any of our plans this season, thank goodness too, heard he's going out on loan, very much hope this is true, we'd be a laughing stock with him up front, on match of the day!..............

    Let`s hope we can get him, buy or season loan, does`nt really matter, let`s go for it.
    Now how about getting a goalie, that`s a gaping hole in our side at the moment.

    lets loan him to qpr ;) they will no doubt be grateful on having a much better player coming in for them than what they will have left come the start of the season

    I heard a price of £1.1 million quoted Jager so assume it will be a sale - can't remember where I read it - have read so much about the Swans in the last few weeks that it is all becoming a blur
