Thread: McBurnie Anyone?

    McBurnie Anyone?

    Decent young striker who did well on loan in a poor championship side? Heard from a Jack who is involved with the academy or development down west that he's not interested in staying at the Swansea Stinkers?

    Did well at Barnsley, one for the future but if cheap might be worth having around.
    If we go straight down and have to sell kz might come into his own then

    Would rather avoid someone who celebrates pulling a goal back in a 2-1 defeat like he's just won the world cup.

    On Planet Swamp they reckon he's worth £12-15m!! But he's out of contract down there next summer (another one) so I reckon he'll be part of the mass exodus. Not for us, maybe be good at Championship, as he proved at Barnsley, but that's about it. So they'll probably have to sell him for about £1-2m or let him go for nothing next summer, he's in the same boat as Fabianski, Olsen and couple of others. And that boat seems to be heading out of Swansea with a following wind at the moment.

    He's worth a punt at around 3 million

    A yes from me if he's out of contract. I thought he was? Perhaps they have an extension option? Thought he did really well against us despite hostile treatment. Looks quality with lots of potential. Would the Jacks be due a tribunal?

    Think he would give our squad something is lacks. I've read that he plays on the wing too, which might interest Warnock more. I like the idea of us having a left footed on the right hand side as an option.

    I thought he wanted to join Rangers?

    He's 21 though. We going to need u23 squad players because of the squad limit. We should also be signing players with potential.

    A knack for scoring goals in championship at least but seems too tall to be fast, too skinny to be strong and probably too green to be ready to make impact on premier league. £15 million is a joke.

    15m is a joke. If Swansea want that, he might just as well try and run his contract down (I thought it had expired).

    Just checked out some vids to check his pace. You're right, he's not PL in that regard so the rest of his game would need to be amazing to cope. He reminds me a bit of Lex Immers.

    Re: McBurnie Anyone?

    He is the most unlikely looking footballer, looks like something from the 70's.

    He'll do a job at swansea next season in div 2.

    He's 21. What was Zohore's reputation at 21? Or any of our players?

    I'm not saying it should be McBurnie, but we should be speculating on young players in this window while we have the PL status. Especially those with contracts winding down.

    I thought this was going to be about a new meal deal at Mcdonald's.

    Barnsley with an ambition for Rangers? That's enough.
