Be in even better shape if they do sign Knight.
No more word on that, and may have never been more than a rumour, but he'd be a super signing for them. Twine (mentioned) is a v. good player too. Edited by Fozz - 13 Jul 2022 at 12:24pm |

I can see Cullen having a good season for Burnley. He has played around 45 matches in the Championship before with Charlton and Bolton so he knows what to expect, as well as playing for a manager he has been playing under the past two seasons.
I also think Burnley will be in the top six this season. I think a lot more is being made of their debt and players leaving than it is. Yes they lost Collins and Pope but they got good fees for them. The two other big players they lost are Tarkowski ( probably the biggest player to leave for free) and Ben Mee but Mee is 32 and still injured. The rest that left for free Lennon(35), Stephens(33), Pieters(33 and has a knee injury) and Bardsley(37), I think they would be shifted out the door anyways. They have made some good bargain signings in Cullen, McNally, Bastien, Egan-Riley, Hardwood-bellis and Twine. But looking at their squad there are some good premier league/Championship players still in the squad and I'd say a club like Burnley would have good wage reduction clauses for relegation. Obviously a few more of the bigger players might leave in this window or the next like Cornet and McNeil but they would probably get good money for them which will help with their debts. Kompany can pick and choose who he can sell or let stay on from the squad and still be left with a pool of a good championship squad and with a few more clever signings which they are doing anyway. There are a few older lads they might move on and a few injuries to deal with. They also have a big pool of young players in the youth teams to pull from too. I don't think they are in such bad shape as it is being made out.

They kind of do that quite often when they sign a player , i think the best is when they signed Peter Crouch all they put up was a robot doing a Crouchy as it were .

Some bargain for 3 million. He's going to have a big season.

I wish I hadn’t seen that. No matter, it will be interesting to see how Cullen develops in the Championship. He’s mixed it well at international level, and two years in Belgium has probably brought an extra level of maturity to his game. Burnley has been a bit of a disappointment for Irish players recently, but this is under new management and in a new league.

I really doubt he would live in Burnley , the last i read only one player from the 1st team lived in Burnley and he was born there

One of the worst signing announcements I've ever seen. But a very good move by Burnley to get him in for £3m all the same.

This transfer seems to have been going on for ages now but the latest report (from the usually reliable Pete O'Rourke) is that he passed his medical at Burnley yesterday and has agreed terms so it should just be a question of making the announcement at some point that week.
