Claret Murph would be more of a judge of all things Burnley but it would make sense to see them interested in Collins. Similar profile to Micheál Keane and as seen through him and Tarkowski I suspect he will get a proper platform at Burnley to play weekly stay up and build his profile as regards getting bigger clubs taking note of him in a few years. 
Man Utd is glamourous and as a United fan reading between the lines there is interest with Darren Fletchers fingerprints all over it. My one worry would be that manager of ours plays Maguire and Lindelof every last game even with Bailly playing out of his skin he still reverts to type when pushed. Axel Tuanzebe who is the 4th choice and I suspect Collins would be the equivalent of if joining has gotten very little game time. 

Sorry Kevin, I got lost somewhere between it all making sense and Bailly reverting to type. So Collins signs for Burnley, does well and he's now at Man Utd . . . and we're now discussing his status at Old Trafford? 

Apologies I can see that now. Typed it in a rush as was busy. 

Basically he has been linked to Man Utd as a Utd fan the rumours are strong enough (Darren Fletchers finger prints all over it)

I meant Ole throughout the season has had a tendency to just revert to type and play Maguire and Lindelof in any half serious game no matter how well Bailly played and no matter how poor the other two were. Maguire was atrocious early on this season and Lindelof had one or two shockers. Bailly still wasn’t given the nod. Maguire plays every game as he’s Oles “80m main man”. 

I mean Lindelof and Maguire would play first under Ole if we signed prime Beckenbauer don’t mind Nathan Collins. Not a hope Collins becomes first choice. He will likely be 4th choice like Axel Tuanzebe who has had limited opportunities. 

Worried of that scenario if he joins us but if he joined of course it would get people giddy young Irish player signing for big club etc. Also Burnley vs Man Utd who would you choose. Wouldn’t blame anyone for choosing the latter.  

Burnley I’m loving though I’d love him to go to Burnley if Tarkowski leaves. 

Kev if not if but when Tarks leaves .
Now just say Collins did go to Burnley i very much doubt he will get much game time early on . 
Just for the sake of this lets say he signed before the start of the season ( ideal time ) he will sytart training with everyone else , he will be looked at very close as everyone that comes to Burnley has to get fit , now i know this sounds mad but you need to be Dyche fit which is a big step up . Every player that comes in no matter who never get thrown right in a few minutes as a sub builds up fitness then gets games . What Dyche does as everyman in the street knows is that he never changes a winning side so Collins will have to wait for his chance and when he gets it he has to nail it down .
A couple of years ago we signed Ben Gibson from Boro for £15 million found it hard to get a game became edgey then got his chance in the Europa Cup gave away a pen and got sent off . Not sure he played much after that cracked the $hits left the club and was loaned out to Norwich with a view to buy if they went up for £8 million .
I was told that Dyche said he would never play for the club again as he crossed the line and never did . 
So to end all this waffle if he signs he will have to wait his chance like everyone else .
