most expensive 11 to play for Burnley

Per minute? Who would it be? Wages and or Transfer fee.

Obviously Drinkwater would have to be captain. In midfield with Van Der Schaaf. Walters and Berisha on the wing.
Gibson at the back.
Vossen and Wells up top.

I reckon Defour has to be up there...maybe not top 11 or per minute but I’m sure I once worked out he costs us about £400k per game !
Diego Penny was supposed to be on a big wage and played just the one game I think.

Ben Gibson has cost about 3.5 million per game at the minute. He needs to be worth 18m to break even.

There must have been some fouling done off the pitch given he rarely played.

I seem to recall Alistair Campbell buying his unused shirt at an auction on a night do once.
