TeaMen Tom Posted 26 September 2020 Share Posted 26 September 2020 Ownership is putting no new money into club - they're old - they could well be fighting to stay in the league. He's pretty much in his prime. Can't fault him for trying to force a move if that's what he's doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, it was worth it just for the shits 'n' giggles. Edited 26 September 2020 by SouthStandUpperTier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MGLCFC Posted 26 September 2020 Share Posted 26 September 2020 Here's a solution. Buy Tarkowski and loan him to St. Etienne. They loan us Fofana with an option to buy. If he's any good we get two top defenders, if he's poor, decline the sale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaspa Posted 26 September 2020 Share Posted 26 September 2020 (edited) 39 minutes ago, Walkers said: Thats twice he's played this game now, first at Brentford and now Burnley. I thought this was the snobby sort of behavior that we looked down on and didn't accept here? This year and next is his best chance to get the last juicy contract of his playing career. It's in his, his family's and his agents best interest for him to get the move, so he's pushing for it like he did at Brentford, which also turned out to be a good decision. Burnley will be paid adequately for his services. Coming here at 27-28 you'd hope to minimally get 2 seasons out of him before another big club could come in, which is unlikely. So if we pay him well enough we get a good & proven player in his prime years hoping to earn his keep here for the rest of his career, with an England place to play for too.

matty98 Posted 26 September 2020 Share Posted 26 September 2020 Any player that refuses to do their job to push through a transfer is a grade A cnut and we shouldn't go near them. It's one thing saying you want a move, refusing to play is just pathetic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
