If it wasn't for the financial situation I wouldn't be overly arsed about going straight back up either but really we need 2 Egan-Riley? ..we have alot of really good young players i'm sure Kompany could loan for free from us like McAtee, Lavia, Delap, Doyle, Edozie, Sodje ..not sure if you could get Palmer because Pep's got him with the first team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't disregard the fact it's down to the way the team was set up under Bielsa (We attacked all sides and left ourselves open) as well as injuries to key individuals like Cooper and the added protection of Phillips. When Marsch came in we tighted up far better. The stats back that up. Mee is 32. Not significantly better than Llorente, Cooper or Koch. He might be the better defender of those four but not enough to warrent taking more wage space. What's the point? Whose to say Mee will be any better than at Burnley? He might be more exposed in a different side that plays the ball out from the back. We have two quality youngsters coming through, why block their pathway? They will be the future soon and they look far better than what we have. It's just not how we do things. We build for the future, hense why we sign so many young players. We rarely get players in over 28, let alone 30, especially if they aren't significantly better than we have. Mee should go to Forest. They need the experience.

Wage space offload one or two of the others and play him. Not being biased but I wouldn't swap mee for any of them you've mentioned when he was playing for us.. Can't see mee moving to forest to be honest think he's wanting to stop up north. Good luck to the young lads you've got Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their left sided centre half just won player of the season and their fans really rate him. I wonder if Bournemouth is a better bet. Seen a few Burnley fans say they prefer him to Tarkowski. Reckon he's more of the leader of the two. I don't think he'd be a bad pickup for someone really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's % a better leader that's for sure mee improves everybody who played alongside him. Tarkowski is a decent player though. Maybe age will catch up with Ben Mee.

You're surely fucked if you lose all three in the same window. I can't imagine any side losing all three of their best centre halves and taking the hit.

Unless its stupid money he ain't going anywhere BTW I already think Collins is as good if not better than the other 2 good leader too.

LFCMike Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 What was the perception of Kompany at Anderlecht? Don't know anything about that league but a 45% win ratio and fourth then third in the league doesn't seem very good at all with a club like that.

The Athletic posted a good piece on him, but in short he’s more of a 4-4-2/4-2-4 manager who describes his play as possession with intent (doesn’t want to be associated with tiki-taka etc).

Lucas Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 I think Burnley have to be patient with him. It's one thing turning round results with a mass change of personel, but to also do it by ripping up their style will require time. He's definitely taken on a tough job IMO but I don't think he wouldn't have unless he got certain assurances. This season should be a complete free hit for him IMO. Build a team, bring some youth through, get the team playing some nice football and finish midtable wouldn't be a bad outcome. Puts them in the position to attack Top 6 the year after.

I don’t think it’s as difficult to change the style when you’re dropping down to the Championship and you have the squad that they do. A lot of those players can play decent football and the change might be better at a lower level, especially if they bring some quality in on top to lead the change.

Dave Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 After what happened with Patrick Vieira I refuse to write off a manager who has a good reputation as a player but has to radically overhaul a sides playing style. They've already been linked with a couple of good players at this level with Scott Twine being the latest. The Championship seems a lot more open than previous years so there's every reason for Burnley fans to feel optimistic that now is a pretty reasonable time to start a playing style overhaul.

Claret and Blue Posted June 21, 2022 Author Share Posted June 21, 2022 We're being linked with Scott Twine. I'd be more than happy with him think he can step up to the championship no danger 22 20 goals 13 assists season just gone Can't half smash the ball too Never getting him for 4m though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
