    I don't imagine any player at Burnley last season would be well reviewed.
    Different club, different scenario

    Whoever it is, if they don't hit the ground running, or show the right desire they could end up benched for Mayenda anyway.

    I don’t rate fofana as much as some it seems

    We definitely will be. The only other option is to not sign players in case their attitude is not right. If you have a strong core, then you can pull people in line.

    But I wouldn't be trusting a fans opinion on someone's attitude based on what they saw in a TV documentary anyway tbh.

    I'd rather stick with Wilson, Mayenda and Rusyn than bring a transient mercenary in on a loan only deal.

    If we had decent alternatives I'd agree, sadly we don't.

    I've no knowledge of either of these two, and as TopCat says, the Fofana comments are from Burnley fans when their club was in free fall. I'll leave it to the club to decide

    Still think there’s a chance we end up with Mendy :D

    If it is Fofana I just hope its not down to panicking to bring in a ST and the club and RLB have done their due diligence about the lad

    Exactly

    We need another forward, minimum. Stick with what we’ve got and it’ll be more championship football next season.

    Fofana is a good player mind. 4 goals 1 assist in 879 minutes for Burnley in the PL.

    Orban is better though.

    That’s what I’ll cling to if he does sign. Maybe in a better environment where he’s winning will bring out a better attitude

    I agree with you. But I think it’s going to end up being more championship football next season anyway. We have a shot at promotion, and much more than we did three weeks ago, but it still feels a long shot to me.

    I think you are being a tad harsh on the club, they have gone through a process and Fofana maybe the last option... would you prefer them not to sign anyone and face the music? I think I've just convinced myself I'm happy with the club to decide and won't be making statements against.

    Hhhaaa'wwwwaaaaayyyyyy the lads

    Hard to disagree

    It would be nice to have some hope. A few weeks back we had nothing.

    Probably and not saying this is definitely the case, perhaps its from being burnt on transfers in the past with previous regimes!

    Can’t believe it looks like Sheff Utd are keeping Ahmehodzic and Hamer. For my money they’re the best defender and midfielder in the division. Should be in the premier league, both of them.

    And that's where you need to take strength from marra. I have. We are a much better professional run club now, cannot wait to watch the lads tomorrow on the tv with the lad...
