Phillip Billing

Available for £8.5m according to reports.

You’d have to think he’d be an option we are looking at.

Whether we do or don’t go in for him , we certainly still need another in that position . Possibly even another who can play as across the front 3/4 positions .

He's really tall.

He must be easily 6' 6".

I've always liked him. He bossed us playing for Udders more than once and was excellent at Bournemouth, but maybe he's past his best and 8.5 million is a lot for us. If nothing better comes along he'd be an 11.55 option on deadline day for me!

If we wanted him I'd have thought we'd have him by now

Good 3 yrs ago and seemed a little slow last time he played at Bournemouth I think we could do better and also a bit pricey.

He couldn't move then, he'll be even slower now.

No thank you. 8.5m is a lot of money.

I'm happy putting that towards a better player.

Not sure we have many in our side capable of this tbh

Just checked his age, and thought he was older than 29.
He just seems to have been around for ages.

If we have £8.5m to spend, he’d be well worth it.

I think we need another midfielder and would personally prefer another big strong one over one with pace, ideally you want one who can do both but if they could they wouldn’t be coming to Burnley. If it was a loan possibly but we won’t pay money for anyone now I don’t think so can’t see it.
