ARTICLE: Redmond signs in for the Clarets after a year in Turkey

Colburn_Claret · Post by **Colburn_Claret** » Fri Jul 21, 2023 1:51 pm

Good signing, especially on a free.
His talent is obvious, but all those games we played Saints, he always stood out as the one player who would always give 100%.
He'll fit in well.

Good luck Nathan, and welcome to the Clarets

Would agree with you other than the unnecessary comment at the end.

To be honest,I thought he was 5 years older,he seems to have been around for centuries

When I first heard of our interest in him, I thought around 32 or 33 for his age. I was amazed when I saw he was only 29.

To be honest, 29 or 34 I am actually shocked Everton were not in for him. Whilst he clearly suits a footballing team, he's also a bit of a workhorse and would be a likely Dyche target on a free in my opinion.

I nearly logged in just to add ChesterPerry to my foe list for that outrageous Back To The Future comment until I realised he's right.
40 years old next year, which is 10 years longer than the distance travelled back in time....

of all the things to foe me for, I would have though that would have been the least likely, given the nature of posts I make that tend to cause the most ire for some on this board

Always been a fan of Redmond. Saw him as a good fit in our Dyche team

This is an amazing signing for us and cannot wait to see Redmond in a Burnley shirt.

We’ve got an absolutely top quality player for free and he’s a perfect match for our system.

Kompany has pulled a rabbit out of the hat with this one.

Anybody who isn’t convinced about this: wait and see.

It's exciting checking out all the new players we've never heard of on YouTube, but it's reassuring to sign someone we've already seen produce in the Premier League for years. Right side of 30 too, it should be a good signing this.

mkmel · Post by **mkmel** » Fri Jul 21, 2023 2:47 pm

Who's our next signing?

Maybe the Italian, Spanish, American, Canadian 18 year old?

Always liked Redmond. Surprised he is only 29 which is great for us Very good squad signing

That's a belting interview. Speaks really well and should put to bed much of the daft stuff I've seen on here about whether he's up to it or not.

The guy doing the interviews these days is very good. Just what the club needed.

Could be a very shrewd signing and a versatile right sided midfielder /winger type . He was excellent in the “ peak Southampton “ years .

AfloatinClaret · Post by **AfloatinClaret** » Fri Jul 21, 2023 5:23 pm

How come - not that I'm complaining, I think NR's a great signing - we got him for free?

CT's article reported that Besiktas paid Southampton £4 million for him last summer; so did he only sign a one year contract with Besiktas, or was that a loan fee to Soton and his contract with them has now epired leaving him a free agent? Anybody know.

It was only a one year deal that he was signed on

What a fantastic interview - could listen to him all day! Very impressive bloke and you can imagine what sort of effect having someone with his character and attitude who will have around the place.

louieollie · Post by **louieollie** » Fri Jul 21, 2023 6:31 pm

Wow! I was a tad sort of neither impressed nor unimpressed when the mention of Redmond came up as a potential signing but I'll be honest after watching/listening to his interview I'm very much in the camp of " bloody brilliant signing". Comes across fantastically as a person first and foremost and I've no doubt he will inspire in the dressing room as much as on the pitch. Welcome Nathan

boatshed bill · Post by **boatshed bill** » Fri Jul 21, 2023 6:39 pm

I agree with the posts above. He seems a bright and likeable sort of chap.
All the best to him.

roperclaret · Post by **roperclaret** » Fri Jul 21, 2023 6:46 pm

This could turn out to be our best signing this year.

Jakubclaret · Post by **Jakubclaret** » Fri Jul 21, 2023 7:01 pm

The sort of signing that represents minimal risk & possible maximum reward, when he's on his game he can be a handful there's no doubt about that.

Jellybean · Post by **Jellybean** » Fri Jul 21, 2023 9:23 pm

I'm just glad he won't score against us this season! Seems like a top bloke and perfect fit for us, hopefully we will get the best out of him.

bfcjg · Post by **bfcjg** » Fri Jul 21, 2023 9:36 pm

Cracking interview and what a genuinely lovely bloke. VK won't have any bad apples, hopefully WW will have changed.

shulgin · Post by **shulgin** » Fri Jul 21, 2023 10:16 pm

Could be a very inspired signing here. Always looked good against us and I thought he had a few more England caps. Solid.

Swizzlestick · Post by **Swizzlestick** » Fri Jul 21, 2023 10:28 pm

Great addition. Still has quality, bags of experience and comes across as a top pro.

Excellent signing on a free. Great experience, good influence on the younger players yet still young enough to make a proper contribution on the pitch.

ClaretTony · Post by **ClaretTony** » Sat Jul 22, 2023 9:14 am

Just had a look through and he had two seasons in the Premier League at Norwich followed by six more at Southampton. In those eight seasons he made 264 PL appearance, 206 of them starts. Also scored 28 PL goals.

Just the sort of experience we needed I think - I would suspect only Jack Cork in our squad can beat that for PL appearances.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Jul 22, 2023 4:38 pm

So that reveal video is now at 19.2 million, as a comparison Man Utds for their new keeper is less than half that !!!

Probably wasn’t the signing we thought we’d make but could just prove to be the best of them.

Claretmisterg · Post by **Claretmisterg** » Sat Jul 22, 2023 8:01 pm

I thought Redmond was class at Southampton and I am very pleased that he is now a claret.
