It's not a huge leap to think if his attitude is right he'll be a real asset in the Championship. He's easily good enough for the PL and he looked really up for it last night so the signs are positive. Obviously he might not even be here in September but there's nothing wrong being optimistic of our prospects with him and Baston in the team up front | | | |

Because he’s a terrible influence and is enticing all of the youngsters to leave innit, or something. Ayew should be one of the first names on the team sheet if he’s our player and there’s no interest in him. I’ve no doubt he’ll work his socks off on the pitch (it’s in his interest to, if he wants to leave). I don’t buy all this ‘he’s a bad egg’ stuff. Yes he wants to be playing at a higher level and let’s be honest he probably should be. Right now though he’s our player and let’s get him involved as much as we can. | |

If its as easy as that, why didn't every Championship team put at least 10 against lower league teams? | |

Sorry for the downvote... slip of the thumb. I agree... he should be a massive help while he remains with Swansea. | |

He’s done ok in our opening two league games, but hasn’t looked head and shoulders above by any means. Don’t get me wrong, he’s decent, but I don’t see him ripping the Championship to bits. Be great if he proves me wrong, I don’t think he’s got 20 goals in him. | | | |

He looked good when he loinked with Ollie. Against Atalanta they clicked. Looked a very decent partnership for twenty minutes or so. Then we sold Ollie. I think Ayew is a very intelligent player who could make the same type of partnership with Borja. Will we keep both...well...over to you Birch. | | | |

He needs a player alongside him, especially if they have a more mobile style, as was shown when he partnered McBurnie. Routledge or Ayew would be excellent but not Surridge. | |

Two games seems to be enough for some of our fans to declare he’s going to ‘rip the Championship apart’. This is despite him scoring seven goals in the last three seasons, albeit in the PL/la liga, and not standing out in those two games. I hope they are right, but they are seeing something I’m not. | | | |
If Borja and Ayew both Started Saturday on 23:38 - Aug 14 with 3964 views | CooperDBM | I've always liked Ayew's fight in front of the net, scoring on second and third efforts. A risk with him is if he isn't centre forward then he'll play there anyway. I remember him competing with Gomis for headers from the same spot. He's proven to be a great impact sub but not sure how he fits otherwise. | | | |

In fairness, that’s not what was said by the OP. He said if we keep both Baston and Ayew we’d have a forward line who would rip Preston apart. I happen to agree, have you forgotten just how average the championship is? I not sure where you lost your optimism but come on, with our current crop of players promotion isn’t a certainty but it’s more than possible. | |

It wasn’t a direct reply to the op, it could have gone on any of the Baston threads really. I want him to do well same as anyone else does, I just don’t see anything to suggest he’ll rip the Championship apart/score 20 goals/etc. If anyone can explain exactly what they’ve seen in him to suggest he will, I’d be interested to hear their opinion. | | | |
