    McBurnie has got to be on his way soon.

    Would be quite pleased with McBurnie and Lolley. Does feel like we've been here before though with Hecky suggesting we have a certain number close and then nothing happens. Listening to the interview though he does say they are "virtually done".

    In fairness, when he mentioned six players, a few weeks ago, he actually said he'd 'identified six targets'. He never mentioned what stage the deals were at.

    Good goal scoring record at youth level. Very highly rated at Swansea. And a different type of striker to what we already have in the sense that he appears to be more a target man. That's why I'd be happy with him.

    Abraham limped off in a Swans friendly at the weekend so that could delay things.

    Even if he has, its still not the Champship is it, which is the level of experience we should be looking for.
    If hes a so called target man then fair enough, that does at least show attention to one of our problem positions.

    5 sub appearances in prem i believe and one start in league cup. That aside, we all know from past experience (i.e. abraham, brown) that it doesnt really matter whether he has played at this level or not.
