Re: Defour may leave before European deadline
I can't see him being fit for enough games again, so we might as well let him go.

Re: Defour may leave before European deadline
If he isn't fit he won't be able to play anywhere unless we're so strict.
Re: Defour may leave before European deadline
If they hadn’t told us I wouldn’t have noticed if he’d gone.

Re: Defour may leave before European deadline

Shame it didn't work out but that frees up a wage, quality player though

Re: Defour may leave before European deadline
Apologies if I’ve missed something, but is this not the news that was brought up a few weeks ago? We’ve known this has been a possibility haven’t we?
Re: Defour may leave before European deadline
Be better for us, get rid of his wages.
Alot of money for a player who is barely fit.

Re: Defour may leave before European deadline
Defour threads are a magnet for the sh*t banter crew.
Who?
What he played for us?
I'll give him piggyback to X
Has he been working in the club shop to give us something back?
Proper original stuff like.

Re: Defour leaves Burnley
Good luck to him, clearly a very gifted player, perhaps the premier league just doesn't suit him with his niggles.

Best for everybody by the sounds of it. Hope he can sort out the family issues and enjoy a injury free rest of his career back home

Says in Belgian press that club and player have agreed to terminate the contract with immediate effect. Indeed looks like he's on his way back to Belgium

Re: Defour leaves Burnley
Been announced on the club website that his contract has been terminated by mutual consent.
Gutted to lose such a special talent but in fairness it’s that long since we last saw him, I don’t think he’ll be immediately missed.

Had he played more, perhaps we'd miss him more. Time for us all to move on.

He was good when he played but shite when he didn’t. Shame, but it’s been a while since it seemed likely that he’d feature regularly for us.

Re: Defour leaves Burnley
Makes sense he's never going to get match fit enough to contribute in the hurly-burly of the PL,thanks for the memories Steven but it's time both he and we moved on.

Re: Defour may leave before European deadline
Be interesting to see how long he is before he plays again and how many games he gets

Re: Defour may leave before European deadline
What a shame. When fit he was a class act and him in the midfield in 17/18 was sublime.
Re: Defour may leave before European deadline
Two seasons ago on the train back to MK from an away game at Watford I was chatting to other Burnley supporters
And 4 out of a group of 6 and 2 saying nothing said that Stephen Defour was the best player they had ever seen playing for Burnley

Re: Defour may leave before European deadline
Some twattery on here! Stealing a wage etc. etc.
Shame we didn’t have more from him but it was a risk we were happy to take, when we signed him. Best of luck to him - hopefully he can have a good injury free run.

Re: Defour may leave before European deadline
Steven Defour, Steven Defour I just don't think you understand.
You hardly ever played, you where over paid.
You wernt really as good as Zidane.

Re: Defour may leave before European deadline
unfortunately there were not enough days, but when Defour was on key, he was the best I had seen where our shirt, in my generation, but he has been stealing a wage for too long so wish him well for the future. Best goal was v Utd for me.
