Summer 2024 Transfer Window Discussion - Rumours and Links welcome

[ksrclaret]

Yeh we are really down to the bare bones now with our small squad!?

Oh come on, it was a joke. Lighten up fella

[123EasyasBFC]

The JBG re-signing was only ever done because of his chance meeting with Pace at the airport this summer. Doubling his wages to go to Saudi.

You aren’t shutting down my Sarmiento shouts so I think there’s something in it

[PremierLeagueClass]

Well it’s turning out to be an eventful evening.

[NewClaret]

Sacha reported JBG.

Certain he reads this forum and reports stuff he knows as it starts to leak!

[PWBFC]

JBG move is very odd and disappointing. I hope we're getting a reasonable bit of money for him, obviously won't be huge.

[NewClaret]

Maybe people will be more understanding of my bad moods in future

Can’t really begrudge him. I guess the club aren’t standing in his way for that reason.

Just a shame the interest didn’t come before he re-signed.

[NickBFC]

A really disappointing last few hours of news. A very risky strategy selling so many. Only so many times you can pull a team apart before it goes wrong. Would hope we only look to sell some fringe players now!

[RVclaret]

JBG is a mad one. Interview other week saying how buzzing he is to be back. Bloody el.

[LongsideClaret]

I’m trying to do my best stevie wonder every time I see them

[Holtyclaret]

Very disappointing if thats the case. I can understand his frustration after last season. Doubt we’ll get a decent fee for him with the lack of game time.

Will be to the bare bones at this rate.

We’re struggling, only 30 odd first teamers plus u21 first teamers left. Desperate times.

[Poulton-le-Claret]

Just a shame the interest didn’t come before he re-signed.

Why? We will likely get a fee for him now instead of leaving on a free.

[Murger]

A bit gutted to lose JBG, again.

[RHansburyEsq]

Wtf I drunkenly bought a flippin Iceland shirt on Vinted to celebrate him re-signing as well!

[burnley007]

Would be handy to have 1 or 2 incomings

Can't really blame JBG at his age. A 2 or 3 year deal to see out his career and earn silly money.

Take Gudmundsson, Benson, Zaroury, Berge, McNally, Weghorst (and probably Trafford, possibly O’Shea) out of this squad and it doesn’t look anywhere near as strong, partly due to injuries yes, but our main strength was our depth.With the likes of Tresor being a total question mark, Redmond, Al-Dakhil, Beyer, Ramsey and Ekdal being who knows how long off a return, the immediate squad is suddenly not particularly deep at all.

Amazing how quickly things can change. I was hopeful on Berge after bringing in £60m+, gutted he’s going - but assumed that would be that. To hear all of this too, mental. JBG probably pushing for that move due to his age but what a loss he is in my opinion.

[gawthorpe_view]

This is going to go down in Clarets folklore as the most bonkers closed season ever.

There's a lot of panic on here tonight, but on the bright side, we needed to and were always going to sell players (we all knew that). We are also selling players who have had little to no game time in the 2 games we have played so far (except Odobert) and we won both games by a big margin.

We will bring some players in, so I believe we will still going to be in a strong position at the end of the window.

[JimmyRobbo]

Not sure how true.

I'd be disappointed at 20+5 unless there's something I'm missing.

Well JBG came from nowhere. I'm shocked at that one. Was buzzing for him staying too

[Bordeauxclaret]

Would be handy to have 1 or 2 incomings

Fear not.

[Granny WeatherWax]

Bed wetting going on here. We were always gonna lose players. Granted JBG a bit odd but hey ho, frees up space to bring more in. I’m sure there will be 1 or 2 big signings, no way we going into the 1st sept with only 3 centre mids.

[agreenwood]

Why? We will likely get a fee for him now instead of leaving on a free.

Because Parker is trying to build a promotion squad and personnel changing significantly in a short period of time isn’t ideal.

[123EasyasBFC]

I’m trying to do my best stevie wonder every time I see them

I’m taking that as a positive sign

[Newcastleclaret93]

I know this is the clubs model

But it’s so difficult to connect with players with this level of turnover.

At some point they are going to have to address the model, because when going gets tough the atmosphere will suffer the quickest

Replace bed wetting with genuine concern

If it is indeed correct, one of the strangest BFC transfers ever..

Similar to Jelle Vossen.

[jedi_master]

Really hope Amdouni isn’t added to this list of outgoings. Yes, poor in the PL, but we saw what he was capable of at this level on Saturday. The one big plus to Berge going is that the question mark of how you get Berge and Amdouni into the same side is no longer there.

He simply has to play every game in front of Cullen and Brownhill, behind Foster.

Fear not we are getting a drum and some of those clappy things

It wouldn’t be the model if we stayed up to be fair. Think they are just having to undone a bit of a mess Kompany had left.

[Big Vinny K]

CT - I think you might need to buy yourself a couple of extra bottles of ink for all those articles

[Stonehouse]

I got grief last week after saying we could be running short on wingers (hate to say I told you so ) but apart from Odebert we could lose Zaroury ,Benson ,JBG and Vitinho.

[123EasyasBFC]

Burnley are monitoring KVC Westerlo midfielder Nicolas Madsen. The 6”3 Dane could be a possible replacement for Sander Berge. #twitterclarets

Parker clearly rates vitinho it would be a huge mistake to let him go given the versatility

I appreciate in the short term there’s going to be a fair bit of movement given the issues around VK.

I was hoping a few of the familiar faces would be staying. Unless JBG is pushing really hard for this transfer I find it a really strange one for the club from a PR point of view. He’s one the club know fans are on board with.

I just hope next season we try retain and build.

[wadeswondergoal]

Some people put in some serious effort to dredge up random links and report them on here within seconds.

The Saudi stuff has probably come out of nowhere and at his age the money will be to good to turn down

Meh.

[Poulton-le-Claret]

Yeah I definitely get that and I will be gutted to lose JBG as he has been an unreal player for us over the years, but I am sure Parker was well aware that we were going to be losing quite few players before the window shuts, given we have 30 or so players.

I'd rather get the ones who are going to leave gone now. Then we can focus on the squad that are left and hopefully we free up enough money to get some decent replacements in.

That's the whole point of the thread

I know, losers. Fancy putting transfer rumours about Burmley on a thread about transfer rumours about Burnley. Losers.

Why do people take the slightest belief in the content of these interviews?

[burnley007]

What the hell is this??

[Poulton-le-Claret]

What the hell is this??

Resign him and then flog him to Saudi for £10m
