Can we finally admit that we need better than Burn at LB?

    If I'm right, I'm happy. If I'm wrong I'm happy. Learning from the best....

    Burn is a good player, and is a solid part of the squad, but he's not a top class LB and has his vulnerabilities. He can handle himself against most PL teams, but any top class pacey winger will cause him problems unless he's covered well.

    We cannot babysit him at LB for another season. He'll get raped at CL level if we manage to get there.
