Prompted by the defeat to Oxford and the need to strengthen in key areas Swansea are going to splash the cash on Andre Gray from Burnley for £12.5m, Luis Muriel from Sampdoria for £6m, Joe Allen from Liverpool for £6m, Sam Byram from Leeds for £3m and Harold Preciado from Deportivo Cali for £2.5m.

Shelvey and Gomis to be sold for combined £22m. Grimes will be loaned to a championship club and Tabanou to return to France.

Andre Gray won't sign for anyone and even if he did he couldn't play for them as he has already played for two teams this season (Brentford and Burnley) .

Also Byram will cost much more than £3 million I think.

Andre gray can't sign for another club till next season as he already signed for two clubs this season least check the facts before posting.

Sam Byram is out of contract in the summer, Cellino wants a fee for him this month. Will not be higher than £3m but will include sell on percentage.

With regard to Andre Gray - it is a very common misconception that you cannot play for more than 2 clubs per season, when in fact it is 3.

Sorry Dan, you are wrong on this. A player can register with 3 clubs, but can only play for two of them in any one season. The only exception is if he moves on an emergency loan, something that clearly is t going to happen in this case.

Andre Gray is certainly under consideration from Swansea hierarchy so they are possibly looking at any loopholes (not saying there are any) . However I believe Hatem Ben Arfa transferring to Nice last season and not being able to play would seem to indicate that you are right but I can only go off info I am given and that tells me Gray is a serious target for Swansea.

The other names I mentioned, bar Byram are forwards, or can play in the forward positions so they may be explored in the eventuality that Gray cannot play. I would have thought or hoped Swans would have known eligibility rules and not waste time but there we go.

Surely he didn't need those 2 telling him they were at best inept!

I agree Michael Carrick has robbed a career for a long time and Rooney has looked like a pub player for the last 2 years. They couldn't say nothing to anyone.

Just seen that Sunderland want to swap Jermain Defoe for Bafetimbi Gomis. This is utterly ludicrous. I won't be happy if this deal takes place.
