Not true.....we signed one!!

You are wrong. Nyambe was criticised and dropped regularly in favour of Bennett. It is why I suspect he'll run his contract down and walk.

Paul McKinnon.......with a worse scoring record than Chris Brown. I think from record that his record was -1 as his only goal in blue n white was an own goal for the reserves.

What he needs is people in the box!

Ive seen on Twitter this morning that Smallwood in advance talks with Pompey. Dont know how true it is.

Etheridge would be a shrewd purchase but I suspect there are 3 million reasons why this tweet ain't true.......unless the first tweet is also true. [the rumour earlier in the week about a bid on the table of 10 mill possbily leads that the first one could be true] James Chester I can take it or leave it if true

Before he left in very poor circumstances, many on here used to sing his praises and even love his dad's tweets. Until the end, he was a lot better player than is stated here. If all are fit which would get in the Eire side......Duffy, Lenihan or Williams. I suspect we all know the answer but because he left us in very terrible circumstances many will not admit it. Dann was poor here though.

Question Would you really have the likes of CB we've got ahead of Dann and Duffy? Now if you are talking wastes of space.

Brereton needs a target man alongside him but I agree there is no way he can be considered one. Sam Gallagher at the moment, also hasn't the ability to play the position but has the physical attributes to become one. He reminds a little of Kevin Davies before Big Sam got hold of him. If only....

The lad has played in the premiership for several years now so has some ability and no way is a complete waste of space. His attitude stinks though.

Some people should work on their sense of humour, smile and admit their mistakes. What I can't make my mind up is if I mean Richard Oakley, Tony Mowbray [on paying big money for two underwhelming forwards] or both.

Very narrow though, need two very good overlapping fullbacks for that to work. Id also have Dack for Brereton personally, with Holtby in the Downing role.

all on loan, where is his long term project as all three have now departed?

To be fair he didn't say when so this maybe true.

Thanks, I was beginning to doubt what I heard.

At the end of the season, it looked like his feet were slowing. The other thing was Tugay had usually a couple of minders in buy him time. If we have one player in the squad who could have possibly played that position it would have been Charlie Mulgrew 18 months ago.

To be honest, I heard it on Talksport several times during March or April. Administration could have due to cashflow at the time as I don't know their balance books. All I was saying that smaller clubs in the premiership may not to be in a position to pay transfer fees due to the pandemic which is where I would imagine Dack would end up.

Its the clubs, like Rovers in the past, with a wage bill of over 95% income where gate receipts will bite. Other clubs, like Rovers now, depend on Advanced Season Ticket sales to spend in the summer. Burney were rumoured in the press earlier this year were to be close to administration so it will be hurting the smaller premiership clubs

I agree with you about Prem teams if they have been run well but for a club the size of Burnley, even though they are run well, then player's wages will be eating up potentially there income and any down turn in gates receipts and sponsorship will hit hard

Unless someone is hoping to get Dack on the cheap due to his injury

Although tidy on the ball, Downing hasn't got the vision to play that role.

Bell has always been a backup LB to me. Every time he plays, he gets my back up.

Does Mowbray like any style that plays to a players strengths. Examples include playing the likes of SG and AA wide, playing BB, playing Holtby as a false No.9 and playing Elliott Bennett at full back.

I suspect it is tactical why they are not in the box. SG needs to use his physical strengths more when he plays centrally like his goal against Reading.

I agree he was quality up until Christmas but there were signs he was beginning to struggle after that. I would keep but definitely not at all costs.
