Cheers, kick me whilst I'm down.

Thanks buddy.

How many minutes has he played and in what position ? I’ve only see some highlights.

[IanMcL]

Looks like another champions medal! Well done. Must be a lucky mascot!

[123EasyasBFC]

People on here tried saying in the summer tella and Gyokeres wouldn’t be worth the money

16 games but don't know if he actually started them all.

Good luck to the lad ... great shame he wasn't a Claret this season ... we have missed that beaming grin at TM this season "Nathan Tella Baby ooooh oh oh oh"

So he doesn’t play a lot and is mainly on the flank, like he was here

They’re benefiting from him spending a season with us rediscovering his form etc and he’s doing a job being used mainly as a sub over there

We don’t know how he would’ve been as first choice here in the PL, although some will claim to definitely know that he would’ve been as good as he was last season etc

He made a good career move, pining after him doesn’t achieve much

This maybe only the first or second game he’s started in the league. Most apps from the bench and often late substitutions. His goals/assists to minutes must already be very impressive.

My god do we miss his pressing from the front.

Transfermarkt has all the stats.

80% as a right winger, then left wing. None as a forward.

Only played one 90 mins all season. Vast majority of his early games were under 10 mins. That has slowly increased in recent months.

Only four goals, but averaging to hit the back of the net every 90 minutes.

nobody is pining after him, we are congratulating a lad who was absolutely superb for us.

VK decision to buy a new team has flunked badly … Tella would maybe fetch 30m plus now … slightly more than the 9m VK offered ..:

[Quickenthetempo]

Not sure how much of a difference he would have made football wise.
But we certainly miss his smile and positivity around the place.

Would really like to have him back at the Turf, my favourite player last season.

[Jakubs Tash]

You’ve got to think that WHEN they win the league they will ‘go again’ in the transfer market and this might have an impact on how much game time Tella gets next season (he hasn’t had too much this season).

Of course there’s also the distinct possibility of them having a new manager next season too.

Would love him back if there’s even remotely a chance.

[Murger]

No chance he gives up Champions League football for another season in the Championship.

[Carlos the Great]

Everyone saying he couldn’t make the step up …the fact is he is TOO good for us ,,

[ervi34]

But he's only scored 4 all season.

That's 4 more than Ramsey and Tresor combined.

[dougcollins]

You seriously don't think he would have made a difference to this team, football wise?

Have you seen any of his games in the Bundesliga?

[Jakubs Tash]

Maybe. But if he’s not getting in the team or even on the bench then I’m not sure he’ll be that bothered about Champions League football….

[NewClaret]

In all honesty he’s not played a lot.

I’ve seen some of the times he’s played and he’s looked really good but I would also say some of the opposition not much better than the Championship.

We’ve missed him this year but I’m delighted to see him do well. I’d tend to agree that we probably wouldn’t be in much different position but would be good to have him around the place.

I’d sell a kidney to be able to loan him next season but as Murger says that’s not going to happen

[CoolClaret]

That's five league goals for Tella now and one in the Europa league.

Top player - gives so much more than goals to a team.

Happy to see him flying - just wish he was flying with Burnley not Leverkusen!

I said I'm not sure.

I haven't seen any of his games in Germany though

[GodIsADeeJay81]

Of course there are, even on this very thread

I’m all for congratulating the lad, he was stellar for us last season but he’s gone on now to better things and there are people stating they wish he’d signed and how he’d improve the team etc

[AGENT_CLARET]

But he's only scored 4 all season.

He'd be up there with our leading goal scorers this season then, Amdouini and Foster on 4 each

[Vim Fuego]

Oh what could have been. If only we had handed over negotiations to Alan Pace's daughter. She very nearly got the deal over the line.

[CrosspoolClarets]

But he's only scored 4 all season.

Scored 7 including in the Europa League and EFL Championship. Didn’t start a league game for Beyer until late January. Got 4 since. Averaging a goal per 90 minutes. Third in the league behind Guirassy and Kane on the per 90 min goals (ignoring those with only 1 goal).

My favourite though - Nathan’s last defeat in a match he took part in, in 2022 versus Sheffield United away .

[Jellybean]

I'm pining after him, loved that guy last season - his smile, enthusiasm, motivation, work ethic, movement, goals.

I've read a couple of great interviews with him recently. Sounds like he struggled in those early games when he first moved, understandably, and was generally replacing frimpong who is doing brilliantly for Leverkusen, but now he sees the faith his manager is giving, understands he can make an impact and getting the goals. I wish him well and hope he scores more to help them win the league.

[elwaclaret]

I came down with a bump when he was so cagey in the town hall interview. It was clear he had no expectation he would be at Burnley next season, was my first reaction when I watched it.

I’d have liked him to stay, but I did not expect it, as a result of the above. Great for the lad if as looks likely he gets a league winners medal. Glad he keeps in touch with AP (and the club), think it says a lot about both of them that they do.

[THEWELLERNUT70]

16 games but don't know if he actually started them all.

He's been deployed at right wing back too in a couple of those games

[Carlos the Great]

Remember we didn’t need Tella .. we had Tresor in our sights ..

[Woodleyclaret]

It's a long list of our worst signings but pound for pound and based on appearances Tressor and Ramsey must be in the top 10

You would have to be a bit daft to continually hammer a 21 yr old in his first year at a new club, playing at a new level but don't let that stop you slating Ramsey at any chance.

When I say a bit daft, I don't actually mean a bit

[Boss Hogg]

As above. Maybe we could offer them a 2 for 1 at the end of the season. Tresor and Ramsey for Tella. £30 million for £20 million. Doubt they’d take it somehow.

You would have to be even more daft to not realise that Woodleyclaret is not having a go at Ramsey personally in the post you have queried or even his potential but at the actual price we paid!... Hence the reference to 'pound for pound' lol... No other team would have paid anywhere near what we paid for him, so Woodleyclaret is absolutely spot on and you missed the point entirely!

Before diving in read his previous comments on Ramsey whenever he has played for us.

Hence the continually hammer, rather than thinking it was all about 1 post
