Far better than Muamba, despite never having played a Premier League game in his life.
Where did you get that info Tom?

Whether or not he's better than Muamba/Holden, they both look knackered. Bringing someone else in who can increase competition for places is a plus in my book.

If you are Alan Nixon, then there's a poster here who would like a quiet word with you.

He's booked into the Premier Inn at the Reebok, room 415, dress sexy. Room is booked under Mr B. Insane

It's in a couple of papers today that we're looking to 'land' him (obviously he's some kind of fish) in this transfer window.

Bish, I just this minute had a look on the Swansea forum to see if there were any Pratley rumblings on there. He's linked with lots of clubs according to them but most likely to stay and leave on a free in the summer (opinion not fact).

More interestingly was that Swansea were on a paintballing "team bonding" exercise yesterday and there are pictures of them partaking in paintballing wearing silly outfits including Pratley.

So I'd its more than likely the OP is talking absolute bollocks!

Swansea City chairman Huw Jenkins has dismissed reports suggesting Premier League strugglers West Ham United have made a bid for Darren Pratley.

The highly-rated midfielder is out of contract at the end of the season and suspended talks last August to focus on his football.

Pratley, 25, has also been linked with Newcastle United and Bolton Wanderers.

"We've had no offers for Darren Pratley from West Ham or any other club during the transfer window," said Jenkins.

London-born Pratley was Swansea's top scorer last season with seven goals and has made 183 league and cup appearances since arriving from Fulham for £100,000 in June 2006.
