The worst team in Belgium last season spent a million quid on Shankland. I mean it was a total waste
but I was surprised they could do it.
Good point about the national teams too, the Belgian league constantly churns out top talent. It's still a poor league and could have done with the Dutch merger, but its clear of the SPL.

A lot of the half decent Scottish players leave quickly. Take Aaron Hickey as the latest example and someone who I did actually get to watch live in Serie A last season-just a shame it seems Scotland can produce top class wing backs but ‘pish’ in most other positions, as they would say.

They do love a wing back.

The one good thing I'd say about O'Hare (and you can copy/paste this post into the Hamer/Gyo bid threads) is they're getting stuck in with pre-season, seem happy in what they're doing and aren't causing any issues.

Some players if they knew there's interest in them and they wanted to go for 3 times their wage, would be throwing their toys out of the pram, not training and not wanting to play in friendlies in case they get injured.

The fact that all 3 are well involved and seemingly happy, gives me a smidge of confidence that they'll all starting at the SoL, first game of the season.

He was a good player in the lower divisions of Scotland, never really did it in the Premiership.

And that’s fine. The deal has always been we’ll progress young players on.

Reckon about £6-7m upfront will be enough to seal it

Didn’t TS claim Hamer was in London speaking to Fulham the other week?

We’ll see, good luck to him if he goes and I trust MR to find a suitable replacement

This reads, an offer hasn’t even been made yet - But Burnley now have money to go back in

The club could still reject an offer if they don’t see it as acceptable

Think the club are ensuring they are keeping all options alive , this will be one , probably not the chosen one though

Basically, we need to sell one and order of preference is Hamer, O’Hare and then Gyokeres but we need keep all potential sales alive until one is gone?

Burnley are skint, just spent £4million on Scott Twine no championship experience, so they have upped the anti for any deal for O’Hare has to be double having said that no way should we sell any star name to a championship rival.

Not skint per se but they aren’t throwing money at it, they are just reinvesting what they have brought in through Nathan Collins and the inevitable sale of Maxwel Cornet

Would be a bit bizarre of Burnley to spent big money on him and Twine in the same season. Not sure how you would fit them into the same team unless they plan on playing the box but I think that’s unlikely.

We may sell him or any of the other big three but that is just a click bait "journalist" taking a punt

Brilliant worded so they can say they were right if it happens yet they can deny they said it would if it doesn't

Like Alan Nixon with skill

Think Burnley did make an offer but from what I heard it was ridiculously low. Insultingly low. We'll see.

If they’ve made an acceptable offer so be it - I fully believe Robins is getting the final say on transfers and will get a good chunk of any monies in on buying a replacement
