CONFIRMED Oliver McBurnie

[TCsLoveChild]

Oli McBurnie is here to stay,
Oli McBurnie is on his way
and I would rather that we have him
Than Neal Maupey.

Elvis is in the building UTB

 

[Tony]

£17.5 million, good deal.

 

[Seth Rollins]

I'd caution that it's harder to fit into an international team because opportunities to bed a team in are very limited.

Hopefully he'll do better for us.

Well we all know what Wilder can do with a rough diamond dont we??

 

[FallowfieldBlade]

He'll go for double next summer easy

Why best all round striker outside the prem 23 british ?? He scores 10/15 next season he'll be worth 40/50 million that the crazy worl we live in

 

[BladeFisher]

Tesco, please. There's only one 's' in Tesco. Unless you meant the business plan belonging to Tesco.

He meant the Mexican version (Trump has boycotted it for years) .

 

[bornablade]

Say what you like about his loyalty but he's followed the England cricket team through thick and thin

Ive seen him for Scotland more than Swansea and up against top defenders (when we've played Belgium and the like) he has looked lost.

I hope he is able to transfer his goal scoring heroics in the Championship to the Prem but there are so many players who simply do not.

£20m seems like crazy money but I'd be delighted as a Utd and Scotland fan if we can turn him into a diamond.

If Scotland had the good sense to play John Fleck then he'd play like Messi.

 

[The Crab]

I've worn out my like button thanks to his thread

You should see what I've worn out because of the Internet.................

 

[tonytonycurrie]

Just announced on skysport news that SUFC and Swansea have agreed on £17M fee rising to £20+ for McBurnie. Great news.

I think he’ll be playing alongside better players at United than with the Scottish National side.

And goes almost without saying under a better manager.

... no thank you.

 

[AWetFlannel]

Been dreading signing a player like McBurnie for ages - buy some bigger socks ffs!

 

[Lmaobob]

In other news, Theresa May has announced that she is due to resign as Prime Minister in the coming weeks.

Well, quizzed my colleague, a Morton fan, but one that has been to (I think) every Scotland game for yonks and is normally very balanced in his opinions.....i asked ''Any good?''

His reply:

''Not for 20 million. Average Championship player at best''.

Don't shoot the messenger. Buy the messenger a cup of Bovril or a nice wrap from Humpit.

Shoot the messager. Full contact details on application.

(Believe me, I'd like to prove him wrong as much as any of you).

The Scotland national team have a habit of making good players look like pure dreck though.

I thought he looked good scoring against us twice last season for his club.

Haha was exactly the reason why I'm glad we never signed Steve Claridge.

Couple of fundamental flaws with this:
A Morton fan
Been to ... every Scotland game for yonks

Hardly an endorsement regarding his sanity, let alone insight & judgement

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

Has this McBurnie deal been confirmed by any Swansea fans yet? Until they confirm it I wont believe local reporters/Sky Sports/agents/media outlets.

Fair point But honestly, he's one of the most even-handed people i know.

 

[gaffablade]

But, but...what about More Pie.......More Pay......

 

[Blend-it-like-Harris]

If a striker playing for Scotland can look like a Championship standard player then he's gotta be a steal at £20 mill

 

[Bladeinleeds]

Stop posting FFS

We’re nearly at 100 pages - that guarantees the signing doesn’t happen!

 

[S64 Blade]

Does this mean we are not going in for Vardy?

Pasta man is fuming. It's ruined his orecchiette prep.

 

[gaffablade]

We need a belting song for OMB

 

[mcbladeface]

Without stepping on Roy's toes, I can confirm the presence of at least one topic on their forum in which they predict our plummeting relegation, hate their owners for selling, lamenting their poor luck and a few reckoning they never rated him and that they've had our pants down.

Can we just remember he's only 23 and only had 7 international caps..

 

[gaffablade]

starting XI v BFC

...........................Henderson
............Jags.............Egan...........JOC
Baldock.....................................................Stevens
...............Norwood..............Fleck
..............................Robinson
........................OMB..........Sharp

 

[Blend-it-like-Harris]

If the Big Mac is valued at £20,000,000, just imagine what Wendy fans think Fletcher and Rhodes must be worth!!

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

............Henderson..........
——Basham———Egan————JOC———
Baldock——————————————Stevens
————-Norwood———-Fleck——————
——————— Robinson————————-
————OMB——————Sharp———

Robinson wont be playing in that role in that formation.

 

[Jonboy60]

Stop talking sense. Goldie, injury prone. Sharp, too old, too fat, too slow. Leon, past it journeyman.
