    Aye unlike Amad who early doors I thought had potential I pretty quickly wrote Burstow off, but only for us, not in general. It seemed clear he'd do nothing for us but his career so far suggested there's a player in there and for whatever reason his time with us just didn't work out.

    I think its true to say that Burstow did nothing here to show us why we had brought him in, all four strikers have struggled tbh. Barstow got his big chance and never looked the part at all , in fact he looked a bit like Jobe in more ways than one to me.

    Cant write a player off (Burstow) based on a loan spell here at all, I agree he was poor or us but there is plenty of examples of good players coming here and struggling whether that be permanent or loans - look at semenyo's spell at us in league one and now look at him

    I agree with the part about Carsley, and it still surprises me that he isn't frequently linked with us in the mainstream. Didn't his and Speakman's spells at Birmingham also overlap once over? Maybe there's an issue there, come to think of it.

    That's a good point, I hadn't put 2 and 2 together there.

    Looks like it's between us and Besiktas for Bo Svensson. He was supposed to be lined up for the RB Salzburg job but they appointed Pep Ljinders last minute.

    Shows we're after decent calibre of managers.

    Likely European football and a bigger pay packet backed up by very low tax rates at Besiktas. If that’s the case, I’d be very surprised if he opted to come here.

    Easier route to the premier league big bucks here, just to put a positive spin on it

    Not that easy a route given *points vaguely at the bin fire of last season*

    Haha true, but if he gets it right here it opens the door for the big boys

    Amad was hopeless for rangers a few months earlier. Funny game football
