We very much doubt that this morning. No matter what you have seen reported about the bid the Swans have not at any stage discussed the value of Zān as they see it. And you can add to that - the price Hull city bid a few days ago is only known by the two clubs concerned. 2 Names chucked into a hat by FLW, click above.

Pretty certain a solution will be sought by the end of the window plus a midfielder. |  |

Don’t think we actually need another midfielder but CB a must now |  |

I would say that we are crying out for a first choice DM that can read the game and get the ball forward quickly. Purely my opinion of course. |  | |  |

Agree with this. Think Stam can do it but maybe not at quite the quality we want/need. |  | |  |

Only conceded 1 shot on goal against Birmingham, 0 goals against decent opposition in our last two friendlies. Whilst I think we will bring another in and we should never stop looking to improve in any position, I'm not convinced our defence is our biggest issue ATM (excluding the injury to Burgess of course) |  | |  |

Decent reply Thank you I do however think we “ look” fragile or because so many crosses come in Brum had not a shot on target all half until they scored They have big ideas and plan to build a 62000 capacity ground but to me they look average albeit well drilled and very physical They got away with much and They were cute Anyway , on to the next |  |

I think some expect to much from Burgess [not you GV] yes he's got a mistake in him so did Darling, Cabango and even the top centre backs have mistakes in them, it's that sort of position. Burgess is a straight up and at them Centre Half old fashion type, he doesn't do the spectacular apart from the odd screamer that flies into the top corner or a header. He's not a Harry Darling type who is comfortable coming out with the ball and carrying it into the opo's half. |  | |  |

I think he's decent enough left to do what he does best, he did well playing for Ipswich, they knew his abilities good and bad and played him as such, he's a steady eddy, age not on his side now though no doubt. [Post edited 12 Aug 18:33]

He’s a good old fashioned centre half , let him play it simple and he’s fine Not all centre halves are comfortable playing out with the ball |  | |  |

Shite ! Has he snapped his Achilles I did partially rupture mine playing squash and suffered for years afterwards as the blood doesn’t easily flow through that region hence it’s hard for the body to repair Its horrible injury |  |

I can't imagine them not having insurance for player injuries. I was told £25K a week wages, our highest paid player. Not sure what figure is correct, but they are ball park, so near enough. I think we'll miss his leadership as much as anything else. Cabango my wear the armband, but Burgess is the on-field leader. Not long to wait now. |  | |  |

I would imagine from the source we had Franco’s injury from that the club are very much covered 😉 |  |

Spot on. When it's a defender who makes a mistake it's highlighted 10 fold, 100 fold if that mistakes leads to a goal. However when an attacking player misses the target, trips over the ball, goes down too easy, fails to see the obvious through ball, misfits/overhits a cross, $hits out at taking a shot when it's on, lamely hits a ball straight at the keeper then it's deemed more acceptable. |  | |  |

Not at all it happened, the estimates of the bid from certain esteemed journalists (in their own minds) down east we know for a fact is BS. I mean one stated in excess of 10M ? Whats that 11,12,13,14,15,16,17 😂 Don’t swallow it kids. |  |
