If I remember rightly Chavski have the biggest academy numbers of any club. Either 500 or 700ish. All on contracts. Most probably more than our players are on. So imho that's a load of old bollox and totally irrelevant. If Tammy was worth 50k he'd be playing in the prem. Hope this helps | ![](/images/avatars/8901.gif) |

Yes you are right the Swans need a better front player and not one that wants to fight opposing players It would be better if he put all his energy in playing football rather than him thinking he’s the hard man of the team and wants to fight the opposition | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

McBurnie on 22:56 - Dec 26 by mahoss | As we saw in the replay. The ball came across perfectly for him and he couldn't hit it on the left foot,had he been able to do that he would have buried it,that's why he's in the championship ! |
“That’s why he’s in the championship” We are also in the championship in case you hadn’t noticed McBurnie is 22 years old and has scored 8 goals so far this season with 3 assists. Nothing wrong with that at all. If he finishes the season with a return of 14-15 goals and a couple more assists then imo it’s a good return for a first full season at this level. If you’re going to point fingers perhaps they need to be aimed elsewhere. Then again, he does wear his socks down low... | ![](/images/avatars/13262.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Problem is he gets bullied by big centre halves when he stays high and central. No threat running in behind so defenders don't need to give him a yard and can stay as tight as they like. His best game was against Leeds when they played Ayling (a right back) and Berardi (a right back) against him and he could play more like an old fashioned centre forward. Doesn't get that luxury most weeks. Needs to put on a few kilos. Ditch the Fortnite and get in the gym. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

I feel sorry for him, he’s having to drop deep because our midfield are shite...and they have been for a couple of seasons now. Grimes is the only chink of light...at least he looks to play forward and tries to open teams up with some incisive passing...but he’s still got a long way to go. We dont get enough into the box when someone gets free out wide....and that includes Ollie because he’s always having to show for the ball much deeper than he should be because we can’t hold it well enough in the middle. Everyone who plays in the hole isn’t getting close enough to him to offer him an outlet. He is trying to survive on scraps and if he misses the one or two chances he gets, people are too quick to slaughter him on here. His misses are being magnified because the midfield aren’t giving him anything like the quantity or quality of service he needs. He got criticised for missing the chance when Dan James put him in...but the pass was behind him and he got held back anyway. He needs to get stronger on the ball and work on getting quicker over 10 yards....but if everyone had his work ethic and guts we’d be higher up the table for sure. | ![](/images/avatars/22162.gif) |

He's always reacting to a pass / cross rather than rather than making a move and asking the midfielder to react to him.

Ok got it now. Due to Josh, Chelsea sign poor players ? And Swans sign better players ? Give your head a wobble. Your point makes no sense at all. If chelsea sign you on a long term contract it has to be an indicator - at least - that you are a good player. | ![](/images/avatars/9736.gif) |

One is an England international and did absolutely fook all for 90 mins and one is a jock international who worked himself into the ground for the team and left it all on the field. I can't fault.his effort, but like most of the team he's a young player who's still a work In progress, give him a break I say, it won't help slagging him off just accept the days of Michu,DG,Bony MK1,Ayew MK1 and Llorente are long gone. This is what it is, support the boys and stop slagging them, they are doing their best and I applaud them for that. |
I only watched the first half but I remember Abraham winning an excellent header in our box which resulted in what was an incredible chance for his team mate. Only one of the best saves we'll see all season kept the ball out. To say Abraham did "absolutely f all" for 90mins isn't true. | ![](/images/avatars/10660.gif) |

He sounds like he got an easy ride due to VDH not being competitive. If your centre half isn't making the opposition CF's life difficult then he would look half tidy. In truth though Abraham is a big time Charlie who flatters to deceive . | ![](/images/avatars/8686.gif) |

So you never even watched the game through but say it isnt true tammy did fook all for 90 mins,hmmm.. If you were there you'd notice the work rate between the 2 players was night and day. Just because Tammy headed the ball 2 times near the goal it don't make him worth his 50 k a week . If you compared the 2 players, yes he did fook all for 90 mins . Add in the fact Tammy is 6'5" and attacking the ball thus given him even more advantage, he should be dominating, yet you van only remember 1 header, I rest my case. | ![](/images/avatars/13184.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

I think Abraham is a mediocre championship player at best, but he didn’t do nothing. He did two things. Both headers by our defence allowing him to target 3’4” Kyle NUghton. And to be fair that’s actually two more effective things than I remember McBraveheart doing. I do remember him being too slow or slow witted to get on the end of a couple of inviting balls in the box and him totally arsing up our second best chance of the game. Another bang average championship player at best. So I’d prefer the cheaper one. Abraham was still utter shit yesterday though. | ![](/images/avatars/9539.gif) |

You're exactly right, I didn't watch the whole game, I watched 45 minutes. In that time I saw him create his team's best chance of the match. After watching their goal back, I can see he dragged our centre back forward and left a huge space for his team mate to score from the cross. That's one glorious chance he created and one excellent bit of movement, which certainly amounts to more than 'f all' and was a hell of a lot more than our striker contributed. | ![](/images/avatars/10660.gif) |
