How many goals did Vokes score in his 37 starts cos if your going to conveniently discount his appearances as a sub you should also discount his goals scored as a sub too.ClaretShaun wrote:So Burnley are looking for a 3rd/4th striker for our bench....
And a British target man in his late 20s with a PL goal ratio of 1 every 2 starts plus regular 20 goal seasons in the division below crops up as available. He slides into the salary structure fine and carries heavy international expererience. We sign him for £9m. A steal.
Vokes is never worth £18m and if we get £9m then we've done well for a player who just isnt up to Premier League standard anymore (if he ever was). Also we are not looking for a 3rd or 4th choice striker to sit on our bench we should be looking for one who can potential improve on Barnes and Wood and as a minimum be genuine competition for a starting place
