Time for Rudkin to pull out his book where he can tell Tarkowski about what kind of toothpaste he used for the away trip to Huddersfield 5 years ago to convince him to sign for us. 

 

Will be hefty wages and a big signing on feee but both those things were applicable to Evans and he has been a great 

Burnley fans on Twitter reckon he's been crap all season and needs Ben Mee to talk to him and tell him what to do, abit like Evans needs to talk to Cags

 

 

 

[Stevosevic]

No thanks. 

 

I thought Brendan wanted a first choice CB so Evans could play less games.

You know your stuff, help me understand why a defender just been relegated in a deep defensive line and not used to playing out/building from the back be a good signing for us?

This is 100% an Everton signing and that for me is enough to stay clear.

Plus he’s a right sided centre back, we need a left sided one.

Of course , most of the top teams will pin us back as Chelsea did and then you need some old school blocking and timely tackling ability as in Wes Morgan and Dan Amartey. Tarkowski is pretty good at that.. Burnley have been relegated because of their limited attacking threat , not defending.

He used to play out from the back when he was at Brentford, that's why we were interested in him in the past. I've seen him multiple times this season put his body on the line with some epic last ditch tackles. In the game against Everton where they came back from 2 down, he was great despite the goals conceded. He's strong aerially at both ends of the pitch too.

 

Burnley have been relegated, but so were West Brom when we signed Evans, as were Hull when we signed Maguire and Liverpool signed Robertson.

 

Getting him on a free means more money to reinvest into the squad at large as it won't count toward our net spend. 

 

Next season our first choice pairing will be Evans and Fofana. We don't need a first team player for CB, we need a solid, dependable option that is better than Amartey and Vestergaard. Tarkowski ticks all those boxes for me. 

 

If we could sign Bremer, Saliba or Colwill then OK those signings are better. But otherwise he's a high value signing that could be very useful for us.

I watched a lot of Burnley this season (masochist I guess) and I'm here to tell you, Tarkowski has regressed.  Lots of mistakes.  Can’t see how he would fit our high line either.

 

My advice to any Brexiteers who just want an old-school, hard tackling Brit who By God Defends-First-and-Only … try to think of him as Tarkowski, the Polish plumber.

You just lost us the FA Cup because you did not think Youri Tielemans was of insufficient quality for Monaco, so if he was too poor for Ligue 1, no chance he cuts it in the EPL.

 

Sum of the parts and all that….

 

Although I admit, I would only have him as another body, rather than a starter

Evans' 1st 10 yards are in his reading of the game though, he's one of the best in that regard.

 it bugs me so much I have him on ignore

[lcfc sheff]

Yeah I’m put off tarkowksi now, for me it’s either a youngish French centreback to partner fofana… or colwill 

[sdb]

I so wish we'd gone for Tawkowski last season, even if we'd overpaid. Unspectacular but I don't mind that at CB.

Lots of players play badly in relegation-threatened sides. Evans got slated by West Brom fans when they went down.

 

I don't think we should bother, and I think someone like Colwill would be a much better shout long-term, but I don't buy into this idea that playing crap in a relegated side = you're a crap player.

Tarks is going to the highest bidder. And that won’t be us. Not earnt silly money in his career  and its time to cash in

Similarly, my son's friend, a Burnley season ticket holder and who's Dad was part owner until recently, tells a similar story. Tarks isn't rated that highly there whereas Mee is. I think we should steer well clear personally. 

[Ric Flair]

Would much rather Denayer on a free than Tarkowski

[tsintskaro]

I think thats only position we can get someone for free and in this hard financial times, someone good in the air, physical and experienced would be great addition

but Burnley fans saying he was crap this season. We cant gamble after Vestergaard purchase, 2 crap defenders in 2 years, 2 deadwood will be devastating

I was thinking that but hasn't he had some injury issues? 

 

Never mind, had a look. I doesn't seem too bad. Although he missed 9 games with a sprained ankle.

[Bptiger]

Don’t want him , would rather stay with cags , other than that a young up and comer 

[lcfc_forever]

Telegraph saying it's Everton and Villa in for Tarkowski, not us.
