    If you look at Burnleys 20 man squad for their opening game against Luton, 12 of them are now gone/going/linked away. Thats crazy.

    Foster - going
    Koleosho - linked to Wolves
    Odobert - joined Spurs
    Vitinho - linked back to Brazil
    Brownhill - linked to a number of teams
    O'Shea - joined Ipswich
    Trafford - linked to mags
    Zaroury - joined Lens
    Weghorst - linked away
    McNally - linked away
    Twine - joined Bristol City
    Benson - linked away

    Then add in players who features in their next 2 games:
    Gudmundsson - joined Saudi
    Amdouni - joining Benfica

    Also lost Berge recently to Fulham.

    Absolute madness

    I think it’s fair to say we played them at the PERFECT time.

    Good players as well, not clearing out dead wood.

    Surely no longer to be seen as the best side in the league. We get this striker right it’s us, Leeds and Boro to beat for me.

    Lovely stuff.

    Looks like Leicester only have 2 strikers. Maybe they would be open to accepting this bid quick to get someone in? We are the only one with a perm offer so far and I really don’t see any of the clubs linked being able to pay 5m+ bar maybe Luton. But we are still the best place for minutes for him also

    Far too early to say, I reckon. Sheff United haven’t started great but they’ve got a cracking squad and will be right up there.

    Aye, I'm not impressed with their ownership at all, I think these type of owners see the gamble of the Premier League fortunes with a parachute safety net and get greedy. First sign of problems and they're pulling the plug.

    I won't be telling JJ Watt to his face that he's not a good owner though! <laugh>

    Would assume that if Cannon is not involved tonight is that their close to a deal with someone and only really seen one solid link of a bid for him being from ourselves it could mean things are moving on quite well?

    I don't know the lads character but Luton is a very similar move to the one he made last summer so I don't think he'd do it again. He'd be 3rd choice there.

    Maybe we should offer to loan them Ba and Jewi. Sounds like they'll get plenty of minutes and at Championship level <laugh>

    Very good player, i think he could do well in the championship. Chips in with goals and plays with really good energy

    Burnley are a bit of a shambles but I still think its them and Sheff United who go up automatically. Burnley will spend big in the next few days, and Parker will get them playing dull but effective football.

    Leicester could want a quick sale to fund bringing in a new player

    Absolutely. Fingers crossed our rivals lose good players and we continue to strengthen <laugh>

    Loads of twists and turns to come yet. It’ll be hectic right up until the deadline.

    They aren’t missing much after watching him against us he was f*cking hopeless. Sure Burnley gave him time away when he was struggling with his mental health too,
