It will probably stay that way as well. Can't see Vlad wanting to be in the same room as Garlick.

I'm glad he's joined us just for this comment alone.

For some reason it keeps rejecting my attempting at uploading a screen shot and I can’t be bothered to host on a website and embed BUT : https://twitter.com/Cabbage_Face/status/1685974560145817600?s=20 Pace’s daughter needs to be a bit smarter here.

You’re missing the point, so perhaps instead of calling it idiotic, try and understand it yourself? Whether it’s a year left on contract or whatever, those are prices which are on the market right now. Gyokeres had a year left but Cov still got £20m for him btw. And just to further add, by this sam...

The point is about what's on the market within our remaining budget, especially when we have other positions to fill, and how that expense would improve us. I certainly wouldn't complain if he returned, I'd be very pleased, I just think we have bigger priorities right now and would rather we focus ...

boyyanno

There is some very flawed logic on this thread. Sarr only has a year left on his contract, hence the cheaper fee and Hudson Odoi is on a massive wage. If Tella had less than a year on his contract or was on 120k a week then I'm sure the fee Saints want would be less. Whoever pulled out these compari...

boyyanno

From what I've been told over the window it's always been a case of when Tella was coming back as oppose to if.

Look forward to seeing the reveal

boyyanno

Perhaps you can elucidate on such a crass comment? Of course. I find it absolute rubbish that you'd post such utter nonsense as "left with the cheaper than cheap options" because we've been beaten 2-0 in a friendly after we've just spent over 30m in a week and around 50m total so far. Hope that hel...

We refuse to pay what I consider to be a fair asking price for Tella and are left with cheaper that cheap options such as a spent Townsend and the lumbering Weghorst. I struggle to be optimistic.

Didn't take long for this kind of rubbish did it.

Good article CT but I think you missed out "English" when referring to him as the 3rd most expensive keeper ever. Not a dig just thought I'd let you know so you can amend!

That is an incredible fee

To be fair I think he's a very good player. Crazy fees seem the norm these days!

Half of me thinks fair play to Coventry for not selling cheap, the other half thinks let McNally go to Millwall and help them in to the play offs at Coventrys expense. I think someone is going to get a good deal with McNally and given they apparently want him back I'm surprised they seem to be playi...

I've read enough of your posts to not need to read anymore, I've disagreed with you. I think Taylor did well in our system last season. :lol: You said you didn't see my problem with Taylor- I don't have one. I think he's a good, and premier league capable left back. So we agree on that front :lol: ...

Thanks for your intelligent debate and reasoning

boyyanno

What a load of nonsense, a left back playing at left back is a square peg in a square hole. Taylor isn't as good as Maatsen, it's as simple as that. Thanks for demonstrating your complete lack of knowledge. In your world a Target man and number 10 are both the same then because they both play as a ...

boyyanno

Not sure what your issue with Taylor is, he seemed to slot into the system well last season in my opinion and he's one of our few Premier League experienced players still in the squad. I wouldn't be so quick to write him off. You've obviously not bothered to read all my posts about this. I like Tay...

boyyanno

I'm not disagreeing with anything. I'm just wondering how people know what system we'll be playing this coming season and how anyone knows which Tom, Dick or Charlie will 'fit into it.' It doesn't take a genius to see that a square peg doesn't fit in to a round hole. We may evolve this season, but ...

No kidding!
So what will it be then?

You don't need to know what it is to know what it isn't. If you disagree and think we will play a system that will suit Taylor then please feel free to say so. I think you'll be in the minority though.

What exactly is our 'system' for this coming season?

It won't be 442 with defensive full backs for a start.

boyyanno

Given the players that we're reportedly trying to bring in to play further forward and more importantly, the fact that we're going to be doing a LOT more defending next season than last, I'm at a loss to understand why the majority on here seem to be so eager to replace/offload Charlie Taylor and s...

Brighton leading the race to sign Cole Palmer on loan according to Northern based Telegraph reporter.

Be a shame if true, I was told we were close to getting him but Brighton are hard to compete with.

boyyanno

Scratch that... according to Transfer market, he joined Basel for 4m euros in July so they must have had a buy option in the loan. I was just about to say it looks like they made his loan permanent but only this month. Can't be often a club signs someone and sells him a few weeks later for signific...

I predict we will get the following in the building over the next two weeks :

From what I've heard I think at least 3 of those are coming in.

Probably nonsense but we've been linked with Paddy McNair now

That's not really what the medical is about. Of course it is :lol: The medical is designed to assess the risk a player may carry. In the instance I refer to above the physio who conducted the medical thought (and took Knockearts word) on the fact that his foot wasn't broken and just badly bruised. ...

boyyanno

To be fair some medicals are conducted like a box ticking exercise. I'll give you an example, Anthony Knockeart last year at Hudds. Signed for them and had a broken foot.

I know some physios that work at Burnley and they know the lad who conducted the "medical".

boyyanno

Never mentioned anything about it stopping players being sold, just that it was something to consider. Not quite sure why you're being so jumpy about it, it's not particularly controversial. Clubs spending a lot of money will want to understand the situation of a player they are purchasing. I'm not...

boyyanno

Arguments that he's good are fine with me and completely reasonable given in foreign leagues he's clearly shown a lot more than he has in the Premier League.

boyyanno

I'm willing to accept some people might be excited about us signing someone who had played really poorly for United because he had played at all for them I suppose, but I have to caveat that those people would be weird.

That doesn't change that nobody would be excited about signing him based on him playing for United, though. Because he was crap.

Waaaaa I don't think he's very good so I'm going to say everyone thinks he's rubbish. Grow up mate.

boyyanno

I just wonder how excited I’d be to see him rock up if he’d never played for Burnley before and all I knew about him was his World Cup cameo and his half season at United. I’m not sure I’d see it as a great signing. I think that's a strange view imo. I'd argue that the majority of our fan base woul...

boyyanno

I always wonder what people are expecting. There’s only so much you can do if you want the basics to stay the same I.e. claret body and blue sleeves. I think the fact that we are now consciously ‘revisiting’ old designs show how limited the scope is. Genuine question but have you seen the Juniors k...

For some players it is, for others it isn't. I disagree mainly because I think the defending and goalkeeping in the PL is far superior.

It's not really a debate though is it? if it was put to a debate it would very quickly be dismissed as 'suiting ones agenda'.
