from todays Liverpool Echo:

'...Wilson has looked very lively in training and his future may be dependent on whether a certain Xherdan Shaqiri leaves the club.

Liverpool are open to offers for the Swiss international and should he depart, Wilson will stay at Liverpool no matter what offer the club receive for him...'

Shaqiri would fit in well at Burnley!

Shaqiri is a good player but he's now 28 whereas Wilson is only 23. I think I'd rather get Wilson for the long term than an expensive Shaqiri for a relatively short term.

As someone mentioned earlier in the thread, Wilson seems to be nowhere near the starting 11, so I doubt this would make a difference. Possibly done to push us into making an acceptable offer.

Liverpool v arsenal tomorrow night. Might be some movement after that game, either way!

He didn't play the last game he never even got on most likely going to be the same team again

A bit different to what you were saying last week when you said he would sign on 25.9.20.
I can only go off what two people that work at the club (one on the coaching staff) that I'm related to told me last week, they were very confident it was happening last week, the more it drags on the more likely another club will bid

If Marc Roca is a available for €9m and willing to come to Burnley then it should be a no brainer.

Have a feeling we'll see ourselves stocked in central midfield now with the signing of Stephens though, which is exactly the scenario I was concerned over with his signing in that he takes up finance and squad space that could be much better used.

Not sure what I believe is more likely. Wilson signing first or (if true) two members of BFC getting their P45's earlier than expected :lol:

4 central midfielders for 2 spots. That's how it should be.

Fulham just got Ademola Lookman on loan, good bit of business. Wer just don't get them.

Csn play out wide and through the middle, still only 28

Somehow just don't see him being out type of striker really. They should be concentrating on defence. No good scoring three at one end if you concede six at the other.

That's my point, we're now on 4.

Westwood, Brownhill, Cork, Stephens.

I thought you meant you were concerned at us having 4 central midfielders. It leaves Benson as 5th choice and allows him to go on loan to hopefully a top end Championship side.

I thought he played wide right, perhaps it was in a front 3 though?

My mind could be playing tricks. Pretty sure he was played by Charlton as a striker. Not a bad player, bit raw but potential back then. Don't remember him playing wide right against us. Thought JBG was in our promotion season?

apparently his best position is left-wing, so no good to us anyhow.
Though my main point wasn't really about the specific player, more how clubs get loans done when they need them. A £i.8m loan fee.

Fair point. We don't half drag our feet, if we even start dragging them.

Even if we were trying to bring Roca to the club which I don’t think we are , why wouldn’t we accommodate him? Cork may be out for a considerable amount of time - plus we have an ageing midfield barring Brownhill as far as starters are concerned , also would give us scope to change shape during games having more
Options in the centre ! Defending a lead ? Go to 4-5-1 or 4-2-3-1 whichever way you’d like to look at it .

The same guy subject to a 30m move 18 months ago?

At 10m I'd have him over quite a few others that would cost that sort if fee, but that might just be me.

I did think this one would be different, I’ll admit that. To be honest, I hate transfer windows. I’d have one per season & make it two weeks if it were left to me. I always raise my hopes on unrealistic signings however many times I end up disappointed!

Josh king is to flash in the pan & wouldn't necessarily represent any improvements, he looked good previously because he was playing in a poor Bournemouth side.

SD’s interview last night was interesting in the extent to which his call for reinforcements had softened.

We’ve gone from his “action” jibe to “one or two, but only if they can help us” with 5 days.

He's softened his interviews a lot recently, saying its not just the chairman involved in signing players saying he understands the money issues etc etc... Perhaps somebody has had a word

Maybe he has been shown the balance sheet before and since Covid and where we will be in March 2021
A dose of reality usually works for anyone with something between their ears
Or he may now know how much or how little the Board can pay for one or two incoming players

In the absence, seemingly, of any major outgoings perhaps SD realises that the funds won't be there for bringing in players of quality on permanent deals.

Shaqiri is a good player but he's now 28 whereas Wilson is only 23. I think I'd rather get Wilson for the long term than an expensive Shaqiri for a relatively short term.
Shaqiri all day long, he' has a good 4 years left in him at this level has Shaqiri and he is class.

Not going to happen though anyway, he's like a premier league Robbie Blake.

SD’s interview last night was interesting in the extent to which his call for reinforcements had softened.

We’ve gone from his “action” jibe to “one or two, but only if they can help us” with 5 days.
Perhaps the realities of the challenge we have have been understood by our gaffer and he's fallen into line with the party line of the board

I think you'll find that Robbie Blake was a Premier League Robbie Blake ;)

He's only on a extra 20k per week than wilson which is surprising for extra class & experience.
