He can head a football. I like forwards who can head a football.

I hope he never plays. Means Samagoal and the man of glass are doing the business.

He's a big unit at 6ft 3, same height as Davis. At least he's a back up option.

Another Suso Spanish non entity special?

It’s a body, he’s a striker that’s as excited as I’m getting.

That video fills me with not much hope.

One of his goals wasn't even his, he didn't touch the ball!

Still, I'm behind him, except on the team sheet.

He was out of contract come the summer, so I assume they're glad to shift him off their wage bill.

In his prime at 27 and 93 goals in 281 games in Spanish and English football. He did particularly well at Deportivo and Zaragoza. Arguably a bit of a gamble but clearly he has some pedigree.

Smashed goals in at lower level for fun but struggled when he went to athletico and Alves. Not been selected much / poor down here at SWANSEA

It’s a bit Rudy Gestede, but he has come to provide back up and we need it.
If he was the main striker I would be worried but it looks like a sensible signing under the circumstances.
Good luck to him.

He suffered a serious ACL injury in 2010, so he'll fit in well! Anyway, seriously, welcome Borja!!

He'll be third choice, hopefully the form of the other two will mean he wont be needed.

If he can do a Rudy Gestede and score a winner away to Bournemouth on his debut that would be nice.  ;)
