Nixon reporting that we need to triple our 1m bid for Jordan Gabriel

also that Kouyate is going to cost a hefty sum he defo wont be 10 million but 2.5 isnt going to get us him.

Why does it need to be someone faster than Jay, pace isn't the be all and end all in a striker. Jay is a very good footballer who can be good at holding the ball and bringing others into the game. We have not had a pacy bagman in the side for years and its exactly what we need especially in Kompany...

It's not like every day is a new day in football transfers is it? Even Dyche changed his transfer targets. Occasionally. :D Yes but the clubs transfer strategy now is an algorithm compiled list edited by scouts and Kompany, one for each position, we are slowly working through each list in order of ...

Dont why everyones still talking about Delap. The Athletic stated loud and clear about a week or two ago stating he isnt a target of Burnley. Southampton can bid for a permeant all they want City don't want to sell him.

But this results in the same problem of repeated rapid player churn and overhaul, selling them on for a profit, some of that money servicing the debt, some going to the Academy, some going back into the squad so actual squad investment has a real risk of remaining static. Buy low sell high sounds g...

If they were going to do that the time to do it was in the 18 months they had to ensure everything was up to grade for the final licence check after covid. Not the least because we still had PL money then. Instead they cut academy staff numbers and sacked the academy manager. The financial picture ...

TickTock

Yes it seems you was right, hopefully your "We will get at least on striker likely two by deadline day" will also come to pass. I spoke to Nixon on patreon DM's hes confirmed we are very active in looking for a striker we have 5 weeks to secure one so I am not concerned at all in that regard if we ...

Much more telling that the Academy Director that got us there and a significant number of staff that had worked with him to get there were no longer employed by the club within a year of the takeover and certainly not there when that assessment took place Definently is an aspect end of the day owne...

It also led to 6 seasons of prem football and being able to find getting an academy to Cat 1. I certainly don’t agree that we have to sell everyone that gets an offer just because we don’t have rich owners. Retaining some prem talent is critical Academy was not cat 1. It was given that status with ...

Got us 6 years in the premier league and European football. I’d take that agin!

No the lack of selling, got us a lack of funds and then a lack of investment and as a result relegation. Money doesnt grow on trees.

Can’t remember us selling every player in the past? I would say the complete opposite we regularly turned offers for our top players

And look where it got us.

You do a lot of Guaranteeing Tick Tock, are you somehow connected to the club, serious question? I am not connected to the club but I was right about the keeper wasnt I? Almost as if I knew. We were a cat 1 but there's a valid argument to state we never met the requirements to be cat 1 because our ...

This however, is enabled by the drop to a Category 2 academy isn't it?

We were never properly a cat 1 lol we were given it during covid I guarantee you ALK will invest to get it back to cat 1

TickTock

We appear to be quite gappy selling our stars, on the cheap. Disappointing. You do realise the club cant stop it right, transfers and at an academy level work differently to senior as a result they can take him and pay a compensation fee and we cant say know which is what has happened thompson wasn...

TickTock

I wonder if what was a case of Muric or Verbruggen or whether we wanted both? This just seems to have happened very quickly from the news yesterday about the Anderlecht lad so we were surely someway down the line with Muric also. Anderlecht lad would have been over a few days ago my suspicion is as...

So for the sake of saving this thread, you know what is covered by loans transfer fees are being spent on incomings that's a fact. A keeper will be through the door within the week I can guarantee this. Coventry wanted us to pay upwards of 10 million for O'Hare Cornet cost us 12.5 he has CL experien...

TickTock

Pure speculation but I wonder if we are needing to sell/reduce wage bill before others come in now? Have we broadly broken even in net spend so far this window but benefitted from a likely smaller wage bill? If we have been expecting bids for Cornet to have gone by now for £17m and to use that, per...

Boubacar Kouyate has certainly dived in value then if we think we can get him for £2.5m. Alan Nixon wrote this story (link) in January saying that Leicester were trying to buy him for £16m. https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/17483556/leicester-transfer-afcon-boubakar-kouyate-mali/ Metz got rel...

Dwight is at a cross roads with his career .There are times when he failed to turn up and drifted aimlessly about in a cm role he can't play. He is an out and out left winger, who on his day can beat defenders for fun and supply pinpoint crosses, leading to goals. The problem is Dwight is getting s...

I believe the away shirt may surprise us a bit.

AFAIK Away shirt is a light blue colour, while the third kit is black with a pink roadmap of Burnley on the top like the one city concept kit. Away kit sounds normal ish but the third kit sounds very different and very very cool.

The one area that you need to have more experience than anywhere else is defence, especially with at least one centre half. We seem to be moving away from that. Who'll organise the defence at corners and freekicks, for example, if we no longer have the experience of a Ben Mee type figure? Maybe the...

There's a reason that even the best sides have a good balance of youth and experience in their teams.

You do realise we still have the oldest average team in the championship with 5 players over the age of 30 we could bring in 6 more 20 year olds and still have a balanced team.

TickTock

We've literally lost Tarks, Mee, Pope, Collins and Hennessey from the defense: Multiple promotions, masses of experience at both levels and replaced them with players that have at best around 60 games collectively at this level. You need to get a grip on reality mate. How mature someone disagrees o...

For Anyone who says we dont have a leader at the back I raise you THB, Captain of Englands Under - 21's all he does is lead he's also well experienced with championship football. Age != Experience.

To also add to my points we do need a striker who can score goals not a "proven" one cos thats for too expensive Muleka was going to be that till hes work permit fell through which his agent has confirmed BTW so not our fault more BREXIT's. The club are already according to accurate reporters moving...

TickTock

The window may have 7 weeks to run, but our 1st game is only 18 days away, so ideally we'd have a new proven forward in by then. It's been a decent window so far, but no better than simply replacing lots of the quality which we've lost, and many of our signings are relatively unproven at this level...

Am I mistaken or did the OP request no financial discussion on this thread? That applies to Vydra’s contract and insurance I would think.

Hmm! I'm all for playing youth, but the prospect of a 19 year old keeper behind an inexperienced CB pairing would concern me TBH.

The hope would be to bring him in as a backup to Muric

It is read my earlier post in reference to the Athletics article its not up for debate its a fact Mee didnt want to stay because he had premier league interest he turned down the contract offers on the table

Offers no doubt made before the sudden removal of Dyche and the arrival of a new philosophy. I suspect BM will have strung out the negotiations (he's got previous) and been caught out by the Dyche sacking and the arrival of a new messiah. Only a theory.
