I know there was talk on the forum before about him, but now Jenkins has confirmed we are interested, I thought a new thread was worthy.
Not for me personally, from what I have seen, not alot it must be said, he is good in the box, goal poacher.... But does nothing in regards to build up play etc, I know Llorente got some stick but last few months he came into his own. Levels and levels above Abraham. We already have a striker in the Abraham mould in Borja. | | | |  |

I know people still want to give Borja a chance, but for me he can't do it and has proved he can't do it. Get shot asap.
I'd be very keen to get Abraham on loan. He's only 19, FFS, he's already proved himself a prolific scorer at Championship level and will only get better with good coaching and being challenged to perform at a higher level.
Come on, Big Nose, get him in. (and while you're at it, get your lawyer in too, because you're going to need him....) | | | |

I'm not advocating giving Borja another chance, he doesn't fit in to how we want to play, Abraham will be the same.
As for his age, good luck to the lad, but we don't need to be taking risks on other clubs youngsters in what will be a very competitive season in the Premier League. I suppose it's the market we are in though. | | | |

Jenkins quoted as being after "one or two players" once more. Here we go again... | |
| ..."who will guard the guards..?" |

I think it is a case of getting players off the books first, this will determine what the club does for me.
If they can shift players like Gomis, Tabanou, Amat, VDH, Barrow and Baston then that will determine the numbers we bring in. | |

Think I said this in the other thread
If we were to get a young guy like Abraham I'd want it to be a purchase. No reason for us to play Chelsea's youngster.
But if we purchased -- and maybe added a cheapish (20m?) buyout to Chelsea, they wouldn't feel bad about it and we could actually get something from playing him. | | | |

can you add HJ to the get rid list. Please god no...he shouldn't be anywhere with a country mile of recruitment. He's just not up to it. | | | |

Our problem is that we tend to play with one up front and we're not good enough to rest our first choice striker, so anyone that we bring in would struggle to get any game time. | | | |

For me, Mitrovic at Newcastle would be a terrific signing for us.
There is a player there and still young. | |

Alfie was a permanent transfer... | | | |

He hardly got a game in the Championship, and Newcastle want to replace him with Tammy Abraham... | |

We as fans don't really know how we are going to play next season. The way we finished last time was a very effective means to an end based on getting the best out of the players we had.
That way simply doesn't work without a Llorente type. It's quite conceivable that he won't be here in August, which may mean a more fluid way of playing.
I'm not advocating keeping Borja though! | | | |

Class, Warwick.
Now there's a poster with a proper sense of humour. Not people like Eddie Izzard and Stewart Lee. What sort of a poof surname is Izzard anyway? | | | |

Young Mr Abraham is not doing very much in this game, but he is pretty isolated most of the time. | | | |

Spot on Risca
Chelsea want guarantees he will be playing to which ever club he is loaned to as well | | | |

Gonzo was on SSP's news, I couldn't listen to him, did hear him say that they want Llorente and Gylfi to stay though and they'll fight to keep him, yeah rightio lying tw@t you can't believe a word he says,  | |

File under Jordan Rhodes.
I liked him in the championship, but for want of a better word he is not a 'clutch' player. If we are 2-1 down away with 10 mins left I wouldn't back him to back a difference. He is far better in open play than in tight games. Llorente is the opposite.
I also enjoy milking the fact that 'Swansea can attract world cup winners'. Losing Llorente and buying Abraham would be a huge step backwards. | | | |

Well for me he was one of the stand out players for England tonight.
His passing could do with some work but everything was good. Great first touch, plucked it out of the air a few times.
Wasn't pushed off the too easily and draws a foul well. He was trying to drag England into a performance first half by coming deep, held the ball up superbly in the build up for the second goal.
Haven't seen much with his finishing but that's mainly because England have had some absolutely dogshite tactics, which have isolated him to hell. 26 goals last year says he'll finish it providing we get it to him in the right areas.
He was making all the right runs when an opportunity arose, but the quality of the final was usually atrocious, especially from the fullbacks. There definitely something about the lad and if we can get him as back up for Llorente next season I'd be more than happy.
We should also go and get Chabolah on loan if we can. | | | |

Abraham doesn't seem to be a like for like swap for Llorente from what I've seen.
With the stated desire to keep both Siggy and Llorente then unless Clement can train the squad to be able to play more than one way (which would make him unique amongst recent Swans managers) we're running a serious risk of ending up with the same old situation of having a decent striker who we just can't use properly. | |
| Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back. |

Played in the Neath League in the 70s and we roped in a pretty stocky guy who usually played 'rugger' to fill in at full back for one game. Anyway, he turns up, opens his kit bag in the dressing room, and pulls out a pair of cut down cricket pads!..........Everyone's staring, as his legs were already pretty hefty, he proceeded to stretch the team socks over said pads. It was a sight to behold. 5 minutes into the game and this opposing winger tries to go past him...........................mistake! The guy kicks the winger clean off the pitch, and that was the last we heard from him all game. Legend! [Post edited 20 Jun 2017 10:13]

Anyone saying no to Mitrovic want their head read.Abraham is a good young player but no way ready to lead our line.As a number 2 then hell yeah.Id be happy to let Newcastle have him him and to pave the way for them as long as we got the beast Mitrovic in as a compromise.Tame him and we've the striker we've been craving since Bony left. | | | |
