Three year deal

Wont be bothered providing its not our only signing today. Crying out for a winger

UTC meltdown alert.

Cue Melt down........

Yay.

Totally underwhelming. Nothing personal wellsy but our club has not learnt the lessons I thought it had. Probably to be followed by the loss of our ash.

And a centre-half

Welcome to the club Nahki and all the best. UTC!

This one slipped under the radar

Wellcome to Burnley

Best of luck to him.
Come on Sean,work your magic!!

A player who can stick the ball away with a point to prove.

Welcome to Burnley Sir.

Welcome to Burnley Nahki!

you're joining a unique club!

Good luck!

UTC!

Welcome to Burnley, hope you don't read this board, it's embarrassing at times.

Particulariy fast attacking small player with an eye for a goal. He's your winger pal

So we've signed a drug addict?

In the current market this could be a gem of a deal.

Welcome Nahki!

I'm as underwhelmed as i was when we signed Arfield.

But - he has something different... pace! and can only add to our options.

Centre Half and a winger next please BFC

Not that I'm reading too much into it but he's got number 21 which leaves the 7 still available for the winger were hopefully getting in

Welcome Nahki. Hope to see you challenging for a start soon.

Can understand why many people have doubts, but some of the comments have been foolish. He should be able to give us different options so will be good to watch how this plays out. The calls for signing a centre half are entirely valid.

Welcome to Burnley FC Mr Wells, you will find we do have supporters of this great club as well as detractors!! Thankfully the former outweigh the latter.

The jokes on you BFC because April fools day takes place on April 1st.

very shrewd detective work Columbo!

Will no doubt get shot down but I think this and the signing of Wood is good business. We have bought 2 players with completely different playing styles for nearly the same amount of money we received for Gray. Read the genuine comments from Terriers fans and most think it is a mistake to let him go. It gives us options from the bench and strengthens the squad. Really can't see the problem with this at all. If we add a winger and hopefully a CB it's been a fantastic window. Trust in Dyche!!

Bit sad that some of our fans are becoming like the fans of other Premier league clubs that we found so cringeworthy in recent years.
Welcome Nakhi you'll get 100% of my support if you give 100%

currently ruled out having had surgery to remove a screw from his ankle from a previous injury. He’s expected to be fit in around a month’s time and should be available to Sean Dyche after the next international break.

Not sure why people keep saying he's quick. He's not that quick at all and has lost pace due to his injury.

He's not for me but I'll support him nonetheless.

Pfft, I really don't care. I'm still gobsmacked we have signed this lad.
I thought we were going forwards year on year.

Meh

Welcome Wells. Hope you prove all the doubters wrong.

Sensational signing.

Certainly is. There's one poster calling the lad dogsh1t!

This is one of those occasions where mixing up superlative and superfluous is probably correct.

From his comments it seems he knows he'll have to fight for his place and that he is willing to do so. So that's a plus from me.

Like others I'm not sure where he'll fit in a 4-5-1, if at all, can he play wide? But he's got that pace we needed, if at times this season we need to mix it up.

We've brought in Walters, Bardsey, and Wells as squad players, you've gotta say that's improved the overall quality at the club, and all we have a part to play at some point.

Welcome to the turf Wells! Good luck and UTC!!!

All eyes on Wells the jury will be truly out on this lad big amount to prove in the best league in the world playing against world class players

In all seriousness, I'm more than happy to trust Sean Dyche on this one. Wells has a decent record at Championship level and does offer the pace we require. He has the potential to partner up well with Wood or Vokes. I still feel we could have done better but if this is who SD wants, then so be it. Welcome to Burnley FC, Nakhi.

I wouldn't mind if they were doubters. We're all entitled to doubt. What annoys me is the posters who have no doubts at all, they are certain that they are right and Sean Dyche is wrong.

I'm happy with this one. If the club think he can make the step up, who am I to disagree?

Leisure wrote:Certainly is. There's one poster calling the lad dogsh1t!

Dog sh1t is probably a touch harsh, but not good enough at this level, injured and will most probably be another Marvin Sordell was too painful to write out at again.

Course he will get everyone's backing, but let's not kid ourselves here. We have panic baught a injured, championship striker at best who is no better than what we have.

I'd have been upset if we signed him for the championship!

Welcome and good luck. Looking forward to you making all your detractors eat their words. They do not know sh*t from pipeclay.

A step backwards, we have wasted around 5 million, just hopefully we can move him on in January when the gaffer realised that we have bought a dud..
The club is supposed to be going forward , but hasn't learned from previous failures,
I have had a season ticket for 35 plus years, and this signing in my opinion is one of the bad ones..

I think the word underwelmed should be asterixed out.

If Sean Dyche is happy with this signing, then so am I.

Though I wrongly predicted on another thread that the speculation was a red herring, I also alluded to Wells being like a good deal you see at supermarket checkouts.

At just £5m, (which is peanuts in todays market) I think Wells is a natural finisher and a decent backup striker - different to what we already have.

WINGER AND A CB.............PLEASE BURNLEY to go with the 27 Forwards we have
