Guidolin confirms Paloschi on his way... on 10:12 - Jan 29 by JackSomething
Lucky the club see things a little differently, else the likes of Sinclair, Routledge and Cork would never have been signed. None of them were pulling up trees before joining us were they?
I get that Paloschi may not be that good and people who watch Serie A will have some idea about him, but I find this rush to slate new signings a bit sad. When those posters turn out to be right (Eder), we never hear the end of it. Yet when they're wrong (Bony), they don't mention that and just move on to slag off our newest potential signing.
The irony is I'd happily take a hard working striker who can bring others into the game. That's pretty much a large part of what we're missing.

TBF Gomis can hold the ball up well when on his game. Ayew struggles with this and the difference when Gomis comes on is noticeable.
An ideal situation would be Gomis to stay and be fired up under a new manager and with better competition go on another streak like he did this time last year. Sadly can't see it happening though.

I don't want him to fail. Why do you want me to want him to fail?
It may be easier to argue against my concerns when you completely misrepresent my argument (apparently I expect us to sign Ronaldo), but that doesn't make Paloschi any more exciting a prospect.
I don't want you to want him to fail?!?! I don't particularly mind what you think.
I hope that Paloschi is given a chance to settle in and then to flourish. He won't score loads but at £7.8 million, we can't expect that of him. I just want him to put a shift in and from what I've seen and read, he's the type of player who will do that.
I hope that you and any other doubters will get behind him when he puts that white shirt on.

Some new vids appearing on Youtube have more goals...
Some of them are truly impressive.
Well, first of all, he doesn't stand in the "D" looking for the gleam of the silver platter. He clearly knows what's going on around him and gets to the right place on time.
A highlights tape is not enough to base a judgment on, but if it were, this would convince me.

Paloschi made his debut for Milan 7 years ago. It's entirely fair to judge him as a player based on what he has done in that period.
I hope he does well but from what I've seen (everyone latched onto the highlights comment but I only said mostly highlights. Plenty of full games, too) I don't expect him to pull up any trees for us. It's not an exciting signing beyond the fact that any new signing at the moment is a bit exciting.
We are Swansea City. We take average players and make them into good players. We take good players and make them into great players. Its what we've always done.
And those players gel together to make a great team. It's always been about the whole being greater than the sum of the individual parts and we have a manager now who has worked that way and will take us back to that ethos.
I think Paloschi may surprise a few people. Can't wait to see him and the new gaffer at the palace game.
Each time I go to Bedd - au........................

My view is similar to yours, Davillin. He' seems to have great awareness, movement, instinct, and a real eye for goal. Like you, I've not seen anything other than highlight reels, but from what I have seen, I really like the way he plays. In my book, it's an exciting signing. Here's to hoping that he hits the ground running.

You're the only one who feels our squad is good enough. With regards to the list, if Paloschi is worse than Vazquez, I'll be very disappointed, as he was awful.
Our squad is not good enough Bottom 6 and a tough run in Prior to Curtis taking charge we were on our way down Lose AYEW and we are certainly doomed Other teams are strengthening now We may just escape relegation but will be weaker again next season
Villa have done it for 3 years and finally loom like yet are going
We can't sign players like Sinclair as we will get relegated this or next season
I am happy with our current signings or plans to sign and don't mind hanging onto our strikers
Really need an extra midfielder as Fulton and Grimes would be risky

No he isnt. There are a few out there who think we have enough already. We havent seen the last of Gomis - something tells me he has a role here if he stays beyond the window
"Michu, Britton and Williams could have won 3-0 on their own. They wouldn't have required a keeper."

I believe there's a squad there's easily capable of staying up under the right guidance which I think we've just acquired and competition up front again which we've just acquired. If some of our players come in to form we won't even be close to those relegation place's come the end of the season
