We need to see the players we've bought before concluding that. I hope we don't sign three more players.
I just hope Parker gets what he thinks we need, it's a tough ask for us to stay up regardless.

we don't move the ball quick enough, we need 3 signings that fix that.
We also don’t shoot enough. So many times on the edge of the box we look to pass it across the box.

Edwards did it a lot last season and I wouldn’t if it was because he wasn’t fully fit but then yesterday in his little cameo he had 2 or 3 opportunities to shoot and decided to pass instead.

I'm certain we'll see several outgoings - we need to. It will be interesting to get a sense of what additional transfer fee revenue that might bring in.
Not a great deal I’d say. We’d save on wages though.

It's a really tough ask. That's why balance is so important. Wouldn't be averse to a loan or two, but would be against three players requiring material purchase fees. That said, I wasn't aware Parker has said he's looking to bring in "two or three players".

Must have had a few shots as we hit the woodwork 3 times yesterday.

Unless deflected. As the shot may have been initially on target.

yeah I can't remember him saying it in his post match interview that I posted but Matt Scrafton has got it from somewhere, likely in the presser post match (or he's making it up but I can't see the value in that).

Agree about the loans, I'd love us to try and get Barkley as one of them

Scrafton basically said it as a ‘Burnley express believes’ type of thing, probably from one of his sources.

Agreed, way too much of this close range tippy tappy nonsense, only good things happen when you shoot. May get a favourable deflection or something.

We've had a great transfer window so far and most would have been happy with what we have. Yet there might be a couple more incomings which would be the icing on the cake.

Despite this people still manage to find something to complain about or argue over.
