    Seems to be doing ok again at them since leaving us, and before he came.

    He has. Just had a bit of a dip in form here from a dead ball perspective. I actually think he’d suit us and how we play currently

    Said it before but he scored one free kick in half a season with us. How many did people expect in that time? How often do people think set piece specialists score? No one else has scored a free kick for us in years, except for Ömür in a pre-season friendly.

    Freekicks I agree. His lack of quality on corners was more my reference

    For a player who’s supposed to be a free kick specialist, his free kicks for us really were terrible.

    It'll be such a shame if they ruin him like they do most players. I think he's one of the most special players I've seen with us; the way he could turn and run with the ball was unlike anyone else, and he's obviously found another level this season with his goalscoring.

    they wont even be close to the only club that does his release clause
    30m is probably the biggest bargain in world football in my opinion for him

    he's perfect for inter

    On the other hand, I imagine Liam would be keen to get on the end of Bruno Fernandes’ promptings.

    Didn't help that because he didn't score one of his first few, he got written off as **** by our oh so supportive.- err, support, now did it?

    Don't think some our fans got the memo that 2-3 direct free kick goals is a good return even for a specialist over a season.

    And played out of position as well. Still no less effective than his eventual replacement, also from Burnley despite him playing himself back from pretty much the entire previous season out injured. .

    Twine and Zaroury were both disappointing, both managed a goal every six games, but I doubt many would like to see either of them back with us.

    Doubt either would be interested in coming back.


    Could also say the same about Lokilo and Omur too on the right. One looked prettier than the other, still contributed **** all at great expense.
