Summer 2021 Transfer Window Rumours - Links - Discussion

[Pearcey]

Decent cast from Claretmov to be fair.

[Culmclaret]

Lennon and Carroll…exciting times

[Lancasterclaret]

What one thing we've learnt over the past couple of seasons is that we can't carry players who are injured a large proportion of the time, and the board and the manager know that

Look, you'd have to be a masssive glass half empty poster to think there is any chance that we'd sign Andy Carroll

[matttheclaret]

To be fair, there's no suggestion we're actually interested in Carroll. Just a throw away comment from Steve Howey that he might fit in here

Well.....we do look like we are signing Aaron Lennon.

In all fairness, has he done more in the last few seasons than Andy Carroll?

[Peter Loo]

Most people on here have done better then Andy Carroll so that’s not much of a recommendation is it

We carried Brady for long enough and we still have JGB on the books. Both guaranteed to spend more time on the physios table than the pitch.

If we sign Lennon it will be because we are desperately short of wingers. We are not desperately short of forwards. And we'd have to be very desperate to sign Carroll. Fortunately there's no sign we do want him.

Yes, that is exactly my point

And its cost us

Sky Sports News' Kaveh Solhekol on The Transfer Show:

"I’ve been told this bid is likely to be accepted and there’s a good chance the player will have a medical in the next few days to join Burnley. He can play left wing, right wing and left-back.

"It’s significant because it’s a club-record deal for Burnley. I’ve been told Cornet is top draw, he wants to play in the Premier League, it’s his dream to play in England. He’s already play for the Ivory Coast 24 times and people close to him are giving him the big sell, pointing out he scored against Man City a couple of times in the Champions League as well so he is a high quality player.

"£15m was Lyon’s asking price and I think it’ll be paid in instalments."

All transfers are paid in instalments.

[summitclaret]

If we have tried our best and Cornet won't sign that's one thing. If we end up with no new winger to start on the right (and I don't mean Lennon), then it will be another disaster window. So yes there has to be a cut-off and it can't be much later than now.

Unlike ASM at Newcastle he's one player who we are able to shut out with ease.

We need to get this done before we get gazumped

Claret's corner,Cork, crosses,Cornet chest control, chips !cracker , Clarets cruising City 0 Clarets 4

[RalphCoatesComb]

No one is bigger than the Club - not even me !

If this Cornet guy, and his agent, are trying to have us over a barrel with their antics/ tactics, then I'd be more than happy to file it in the waste paper bin.

[claretandy]

Just been watching the obligatory youtube videos, he's more 2 footed than McNeil, scores with both feet.

[Tall Paul]

How can we be anywhere near this signing? I thought we hadn't got any money.

[Papabendi]

West Ham and Newcastle circling on Cornet as we are slow getting it over the line.

Probably what interests Dyche the most is he is a good defensive as well attacking player per the fact he can also play full back.

[minnieclaret]

Carroll wins headers. With us lumping crosses in from all angles he is perfect for knocking balls down in the box. A forward running MF to compliment Wood would increase our goals tally. I don’t want to see him charging around pulling hammys at all.

Pretty sure a static striker is absolutely no use whatsoever to anyone at this level

[BurnleyFC]

I hope Cornet turns out to be a good ‘un after all this.

I (now) know he scored against City in the Champions League but I’d genuinely never heard of him a month ago.

[Chester Perry]

wow! nearly 80,000 views on this thread in the last 7 days imagine if we had a a major signing or two

[boatshed bill]

I hope Cornet turns out to be a good ‘un after all this.

I (now) know he scored against City in the Champions League but I’d genuinely never heard of him a month ago.

That's because any info he gives out about himself is purely voluntary (sorry, i know that it's not quite right in musical instrument terms but I couldn't resist )

[Spijed]

Haven't we offered him all we can?

Where have you seen that Bout West Ham and Newcastle btw?

I mentioned him on here 12 months ago and got laughed at - says it all about some people on here

If he does turn out to be a good un, let’s hope it’s in a Burnley shirt!

Yes, if true it means we won't be signing Cornet.

[tiger76]

Well! if true then we'd better have some other options up our sleeves, because by hook or crook we need at least one winger through the door this week.

So I truly hope we've not got all our eggs in a Cornet shaped basket otherwise we're snookered.

And no needless to state Lennon doesn't count in the equation.

But from what's has been said, it really does seem it's Cornet or nothing (Lennon aside). So if we don't get him it's very likely to be Lennon only.

[Murger]

As clear as day, Cornet is dragging this out in the hope of a better offer. IMO, we move on pdq.

Have now resigned myself to not getting him with other clubs showing likely interest.

[boatshed bill]

If this is the case then maybe we should all come to accept that this is exactly where we are.
Can we attract Champs League standard players? Can we afford them?
If we can't get better than we already have we just go with our squad and hope there are 3 teams worse than we are.

[ClaretAndJew]

It's taken us all this time on Cornet, we're not likely to get anyone of any particular quality in with only just over a week left. Lennon will be our only option.

[Wokingclaret]

As with Young we have somehow been too open about this

[Lancasterclaret]

I have absolutely no idea how some of you survive being a Burnley fan, I really don't

And behave ClaretandJew!

[wilks_bfc]

How have we been “open”

The club isn’t the one that ”leaks” the details.

Almost certainly, vested interest.

Am I alone in thinking Newcastleclaret relishes finding and posting stories which suggest we might miss out on a target or stories about the transfer successes of other clubs?
