CONFIRMED Oliver McBurnie

[BushBlade]

and 2 of those are Boxing Day and New Years Day.

Only genuine midweek fixtures are Newcastle (h) and Man city (h)

We’re going to have so much more time to prepare for games. So much more time on the training ground.

Is 20mil a championship record?

Is 20mil a championship record?

Maddison £24 Mill (ish)

Is 20mil a championship record?

No Maddison the free fall expert cost Leicester £24 million from Narwich.

 

[Boxer Blade]

Has to be Jordan Rhodes hasn't it? Surely?

 

[Ricky]

And there it is.

The fee is now forever an absolute minimum of '£20m', no matter how much it actually is in reality.

Which will probably be moved anyway

Lovin it could easily get used to this.

Just rewatched the deadline day documentary with Wilder (tried to send link but its not working). How the list of targets have changed within two years!

If I have to watch McBurnie get his hairy ringpiece tongued, he can stay in fucking Swansea.

It's at moments like this, that you hope there's a Welsh Roygbiv

 

[DronnieBlade]

Understand the desire to get McBurnie in and as it stands, the fit, in terms of giving the attack a further dimension,makes sense.

£20m (or up to) is hugely over the odds but if this is Wilders man, than so be it.

I’m not so sure .

And for the usual suspects writing Bill and Dids off ..........

I wouldn’t. Unless you love a custard pie that is .

I think Duffy fucking it up for himself actually helps us in terms of options on the bench. Because McGoldrick and Robinson can both play the 10 position we could see which ever one of them isn’t playing plus two of Sharp/Mousset/McBurnie on the bench.

For example
Henderson, Basham, Egan, O’Connell, Baldock, Stevens, Norwood, Fleck, Freeman, Robinson, McBurnie

Subs: Moore, Jagielka, Osborn, Lundstram/Morrison, McGoldrick, Mousset, Sharp

Gives cover to every position on the pitch, the only question is on a game by game basis would you rather have Lundstrams solidity or Morrison’s flair as the bench option.

Osborn for Fleck and that won’t be far from the starting line up I reckon

 

[ShockingBadBuy]

And there it is.

The fee is now forever an absolute minimum of '£20m', no matter how much it actually is in reality.

But that’s our entire budget. Bollocks, we’ll have to send all the others back!

 

[Ricky]

Osborn for Fleck? Based on what? What does he do better than Fleck at LCM? How many times have you seen Osborn to make this judgement?

That's a whole new universe of weird.

 

[Jon Bon II]

Can I be the first to say...

Ollie McBurnie, you are the love of my life
Ollie McBurnie, I'd let you shag the wife
Ollie McBurnie, I want ginger hair too...

 

[bromtom]

That's a whole new universe of weird.

"Rhodgbydd's Barn Gan" would go down a storm in the valleys.

 

[ShockingBadBuy]

That's a whole new universe of weird.

Oh, I don’t know. “Roygbiv, baa”. Try saying that in a comedy welsh accent. Sounds about right to me. Time he came out of the closet, for me.

Personally don't feel it's really hugely over the odds - it's probably his peak value, but compared to say Danny Ings (£16m, 27yo, terrible injury history, 38 games played in 4 seasons) I think it's a worthwhile spend.

Che Adams is a good comparison, he was £16m or so to Southampton, is the same age as McBurnie and scored the same amount of league goals last season. Probably the only difference is that Birmingham were under much more pressure to sell than Swansea so have less room to negotiate (Assuming, indeed, the final McBurnie cost would be £20m).

Fleck is the first name on the team sheet for me.

 

[Ricky]

Fleck is the first name on the team sheet for me.

Nah, anyone who knows anything about football knows that our midfield was just Norwood last season.... he single handedly carried us to promotion. Anybody could have done Fleck's job. All he had to do was stand in the middle and kick it to Norwood. He scored that goal v Wednesday but other than that he's not really done anything. I also absolutely detest and cannot get over the fact he came from Rangers

 

[Kevin Arnott]

Hope he's not like this at the end of season celebration.....

 

[wizadry]

Osborn for Fleck and that won’t be far from the starting line up I reckon

Osborn is cover for Fleck and won’t play ahead of him unless he’s suspended, injured or seriously lacking in form for a consistent run of games which ultimately won’t be happening.

 

[Bert]

Bert prefers Henderson in goal.

 

[Cheesebored]

Not disagreeing with you here but how do you know what Wilder's starting 11 will be? Personally I think Flecks earned the right to be a starter but anything is possible. Who'd have thought Duffy would be an outcast 2 weeks ago?
