Three of the top four look very familiar. Is our.lesson dont buy Scottish strikers unless they are from non league?

Also its amazing that Burke has twice gone for fees in excess of playere like McCormack and Fletcher who were proven goalscorers at the time.

I would put that down to transfer market inflation though to be fair.

If a peak McCormack was moving to Fulham off the back of being the league’s top scorer nowadays, he’d be well over £20m.

True but Burkes fees were 5 and 4 years ago not todays. Amazing that so many teams have been taken in by his pace and physique
 
And a total of £33.2m makes him the most expensive jock ever. Lets hope that memories of Man U goal helps us round that number up to £40m for a goal scoring scottish international!

True yeah.

Leipzig definitely overpaid for him looking back. He burst onto the scene as a teenager with a purple patch which must have fooled their scouts. West Brom then overpaid for him based on him being at Leipzig.

Not sure Leipzig can be accused of over paying when they sold him only a year later for a profit.

Even when Red Bull miss they still score. Cannot stand the organisation but can’t fault their operation
 
The only thing I can take from this is that others to have been fooled that Oli Burke is a footballer.
 
Oli Burke is the most expensive and second most expensive Scottish footballer actually born in Scotland. (Tierney IOM, Oli McB Leeds, Adams Leicester)

Peter Wright should be third based on that list

Unless you get transported back in time when Dalglish, Souness, Hansen, Andy Gray, Jordan, Strachan et al were available....oh and not forgetting Don Hutchinson 😀

For every Dalglish there are a 100 mcburnies
 
Saw Dougie Brown's debut at Hull in a 4-1 defeat in an evening match. Strangely, he actually played well that night. Probably for the one and only time......
His debut was in the 0-0 draw at Oldham in March 1979. Us and Hull werent in the same division that season
