Would be pretty embarrassing for the scouting department if we’re sending him back this early, especially considering we seemed to be after him for ages and waited for him to come back from tour with Palace.
We desperately need the money and Burnley were offering him 3x his wage here to go. It was only a matter of time before it was done prior to the injury.
It’s a load of incredibly boring questions where you just say the same thing over and over again for a few minutes until it’s done. ‘It’s such a big club, can’t wait to get started’ rinse and repeat.
Given how shit we were at home last season from the 7th game onwards I’m not sure there is much comfort to be taken in us ‘not playing at home yet’. Especially as we’ll be playing on a patched up potato field.
