Summer transfer window

[Steve-Harpers-perm]

An immense signing and well done to the club for managing to keep it quiet. Going to be exciting to see who we bring in next.

Agree Steve.
Hope your hair is still in good order?

But not off the pitch

True

Ryan Giggs was a model professional on the pitch, but as we all know now, not off it

[It Is What It Is]

I honestly thought the Kyle Walker signing was a Photoshop joke when I first heard about it .....soooo glad it's proved to be a remarkable bit of business for AP, the board and Scotty P all doing a fantastic job in getting him to the Turf. Walker is still very hungry for football success and wants to a part of Burnley s plan.
His experience and talent will be immense both in the dressing room and on the pitch.
May prove pivotal in Trafford staying as well.
I'll hopefully see him playing in the Lazio friendly

[Vegas Claret]

Yeah i think he'll probably do a steady job for us, just that people are going a bit overboard!

You should have heard us when we signed Nick Pickering

[brexit]

Marquee signing just like shelvey,Drinkwater,jay rod and mike t

[ollieclarets8]

If anybody finds a negative in this move they should take a season off. Because they are looking for every negative possible in their life and enjoy being miserable.

[Hedontplayforyou]

I’m intrigued to see if this helps to bring in more ambitious signings, or just gives those players who are slightly undecided that nudge to say , yes I’m going there as well.

[Spike]

We’re not all bad.

All of the time

[Boss Hogg]

Good signing and a winner on the pitch. Can’t understand any negativity at all and think it is a bit of a coup but some will always find something to whinge about.

[taio]

I can't remember many describing those as marquee signings and in any case Walker's career has been at a totally different level to them. Anyhow, you just carry on looking for the negative

They’ll be calling for Parker’s head come September like they were with vk

Congratulations, you've just made the weirdest post of the day. And that takes some doing considering the competition.

Nothing weird about sarcasm. Just not in the best taste.

I'd like to think Walker's announcement video gave a strong hint as to who we're signing next

[Hedontplayforyou]

Well Messi has said he’s open to a 6 month loan ahead of the World Cup .

Lionel Richie?

Anything is possible now!

Lionel Richie?

No, Matt Ritchie

[Quicknick]

The team is shaping up to be stronger than the Championship team. Under Kompany, I'm convinced we started the Premier League campaign with a weaker side than we got promoted with.

I agree with that. This time we have held on to the loan players that got us up.

[Colburn_Claret]

All in nice and early as well. Utd players aren't due back until next week. In our situation we have take advantage of every blessing , no matter how small.
I thought we had a fair chance of staying up post season, but the window has improved things massively.
I'm still hopeful Josh will see the grass isn't always greener, and come home.

I find it crazy that teams are back in training and you have city who’s season only finished last week and Chelsea’s that’s still on going

[Vegas Claret]

Have to sort the midfield out, currently nowhere near strong enough in the middle imho

[Steve-Harpers-perm]

And up front.

[CrosspoolClarets]

The team is shaping up to be stronger than the Championship team. Under Kompany, I'm convinced we started the Premier League campaign with a weaker side than we got promoted with.

I’d say we are significantly stronger.

As well as Amdouni and Tresor coming back (both could leave and I accept mixed opinions), we have improved our back four / five substantially in at least 2 positions, maybe 3. We have signed (pre injury) one of the most sought after left backs in Europe, the best right back in the world at one time, and a centre back who Man Utd believed could hit the top.

I expect us to dramatically improve centre midfield and striker too in the next few weeks, we still have loans left. It is just goalie that is a risk if Trafford goes.

[Barden Lane]

Just need Ndidi from Leicester and that big fella Arokodare from Genk

[expoultryboy]

Great signing and the strength in numbers for the defence is looking good . We now need more strength in midfield . The combination of Brownhill (possibly) , Cullen and Laurent will get murdered in the prem . The next few weeks should hopefully solve this predicament.

[Paddy1882]

100% agree just said this on another thread, need 2 in my opinion big combative and athletic for in there. I’d be spending the Trafford money if or when it comes on 2 midfielders of that mould for sure.

[burnley007]

Midfielders will be next.

[Juan Tanamera]

Marquee signing just like shelvey,Drinkwater,jay rod and mike t

Get a grip ffs.

[ollieclarets8]

The club are doing brilliant so far. As pointed out, central midfield and a striker to come. Plenty of time to sort that and even loans could work.

[Vegas Claret]

Given the surprise Walker arrival I'm half expecting Jordan Henderson to rock up !

[Longsidejono]

Great signing Walker, plus seems like the bonus’ only come if he plays so many games and if we stay up so there is more of a incentive

Feel for roberts in terms of being pushed out under vk and been good performer last season but ‘football is a business’ works both ways I suppose

Hats off to pace as a ‘younger’ supporter he has done nothing but try to get a decent manager to run the footballing side and back their transfer wishes (obv within reason)

[expoultryboy]

Hope you're wrong

[Hedontplayforyou]

Given the surprise Walker arrival I'm half expecting Jordan Henderson to rock up !

I actually mentioned his name to my mate earlier .

[boatshed bill]

Great so far, but probably 10 need to be either sold or loaned out.
And I'd say the defensive midfield needs an upgrade or two.

Sign him on as our designated corner kick taker

[summitclaret]

Sorry no to Ericksen. He's not the player he was. Henderson, absolutely. That would make 2 current England players.

Absolutely yes please.

Would look fantastic with the right players around him.

[Tricky Trevor]

Cullen will be fine. When VK dropped him he was correct, he hadn’t got up to speed. When he came back in the early Spring he was a different player and didn't look out of place at all.

[wilks_bfc]

If Henderson goes anywhere it’ll be back to Sunderland

Would you immediately replace Roberts with Walker? Or would you start next season with Roberts and make Walker earn his starting place?

[Ptgclaret]

As much as we all love Roberts, I'd have thought the current England international, who started 11 times for City last season, and made 34 appearances between them and AC Milan would be favourite to start.

Kompany got slated for not starting players in the premier league who had won promotion
Looking at our signings so far it looks like several of last seasons team could be missing out this season. I wonder how that'll go down.

It’s a valid point but, looking back now, VK’s man management left a hell of a lot to be desired.

I’d back Parker to do better in that regard, but it will be interesting to see how he knits it all together.
