Summer 2022 Burnley Transfer Window Rumours - Links - Discussion

[AwayClaret]

I haven't decided whether woodleyclaret is on the wind up or is naturally dense. Its like 50/50.

[DCWat]

It’ll be a long time before we have back to back keepers as good as Heaton and Pope we’re for us. We’ve been spoiled.

[Hedontplayforyou]

I feel like we may announce a signing tomorrow

[RVclaret]

Sounds like THB is close.

[Dingo]

I’m comfortable with Pope being sold and £10m seems reasonable given his contract status and us being relegated. He’s an excellent keeper and he’ll be missed, but he’s not good enough technically for the current top few clubs, so Newc seems a logical next step for him given the wages that will be involved, even if the funds are tainted. Hope he does well next year and improves his distribution and he might have a chance with England.

Sounds like THB is close.

No mention of it being a loan, and with Kompany saying they’re a last resort for him, I wonder if it’s permanent with buy back clauses inserted (ala the keeper who’s joined Southampton).

[Juan Tanamera]

So the asset stripping theorists were correct after all. Some serious incoming action is needed after a dark day selling our best keeper in years.

Surely if there is any asset stripping going on there won't be any players incoming.

It's been close for a couple of days allegedly. Maybe an announcement in the next few days hopefully.

[Newcastleclaret93]

@newclaret it appears I have won the wager

[Goalposts]

I wish him all the best was outstanding for us and also patient when Heats was here.. i do wonder if pope and tarky may actually start playing for england with these moves

[BleedingClaret]

It’ll be a long time before we have back to back keepers as good as Heaton and Pope we’re for us. We’ve been spoiled.

I remember when Heatin got injured and this gangly young lad came in and everyone said we’re down now that’s it we’re done
Well he turned out alright

[tiger76]

No surprise Pope has been picked by a PL club, he's one of those who generally performed to his usual standards last season, and our relegation certainly wasn't down to him.

Shame it had to be Newcastle, but that's life, best of luck in the next phase of your career Nick, and thanks for the memories.

Now we'll see whether his fee covers a least a couple of badly needed incomings.

[ClaretMov]

Arijanet Muric, this Man City keeper will be Pope's replacement he's 6 foot 6 and likes to play it out from the back, 23 years old and a perfect keeper for the way Kompany wants to play.

[joey13]

This isnt asset stripping, its called the reality of being relegated

It’s called the reality of having a massive debt .

[Milltown1882]

15 plus add ons for Pope? Add on the 25 for Wood and the Saudi state are doing an excellent job of clearing our debt.

[ClaretMov]

I'd be asking for all of the 15 upfront along with the rest of the 25 they owe for wood

[bumba]

It’s called the reality of having a massive debt .

Doesn't matter what debts we have, doesn't matter who is in charge, doesn't matter who our manager is.....

Pope would of left after relegation regardless, it's a world cup year

[RVclaret]

It’s called the reality of having a massive debt .

Yawn yawn yawn

Arijanet Muric, this Man City keeper will be Pope's replacement he's 6 foot 6 and likes to play it out from the back, 23 years old and a perfect keeper for the way Kompany wants to play.

Agree, wouldn't surprise me it we try to bring him in permanent for a few mil.

[BurnleyFC]

Newcastle Evening Chronicle says Pope price around £15 million including a number of add-ons. Said Burnley demanded £40 million initially.

Top negotiating, Al.

It reminds me of when I used to be a skint squaddie and would literally give my stuff away at the end of the month when I was in desperate need of money for a pint.

[Tinribs]

We have had some good seasons from Nick Pope and made a massive profit on him.We have 2 cracking keepers left to take his place.
I don’t think Pope would have been comfortable playing out from the back.
Talk of getting 20 million plus was just plain stupid.

[Vegas Claret]

Seriously, give the Samaritans a call

[BurnleyFC]

Seriously, give the Samaritans a call

Why, would they offer us more money?

[bumba]

Didn't Pep mention what a talent Collins were after our game at the Etihad last year?

Swap deal Muric and Harwood-Bellis?? Maybe plus cash too?

[ClaretMov]

Agree, wouldn't surprise me it we try to bring him in permanent for a few mil.

I think his value would be around 4 million his wage is around 20k a week and City have 6 keeper's so it could be a permanent deal if it was to happen

[BurnleyFC]

Oh, and Eddie Howe can **** off as well.

[Cleveleys_claret]

If they are anything like the last two we got from City Mee and Trippier...get them signed up now

[mybloodisclaret]

So a NEWCASTLE journo says we asked for 40 mill but they talked us down by 25 mill to 15 mill??? Some of you need to give your head a serious wobble. Pope will be class for the next 4-5 years. We wouldn't knock 62.5% off the price in negotiating. Even my 8 year old knows that.

[Guitargeorge]

So the asset stripping theorists were correct after all. Some serious incoming action is needed after a dark day selling our best keeper in years.

You obviously weren’t here in the Bob Lord era!

[Steddyman]

I think certain people need to get used to the reality of our new business model.

This isn't about asset stripping to clear debts. The new business model is buy low, develop and sell for profit. I'm fine with that.

[NewClaret]

@newclaret it appears I have won the wager

Not yet… Fabrizio not reporting a fee. Nobody credible is saying anything on fee - Sky, Fabrizio. Let’s see.

Not looking good for me though, I admit.

[Milltown1882]

Sounds like Nick Pope’s uncle is devastated to see the back of Burnley on twitter.

‘ @Everton
Wonder how long Prickford be Southgate little boy now Nick Pope gone to a big team’

[DCWat]

Why, would they offer us more money?

I know you’ve got it in for Pace - I’m yet to be convinced. The time to judge though (and it’s a well worn path with Burnley transfer windows) is at the end of August.

We should then have a bit more of insight:

• Rough Net spend
• Have we recouped enough to clear some more debt
• Have we recruited well enough to cover the outgoings
• Have we recruited well enough for a crack at promotion

There’s no point slating the deals for outgoing players when we don’t know the true figures and don’t know the intricacies behind the deal.

[DCWat]

If that is from his Uncle, I’d imagine Pope will be pretty bloody embarrassed, on a few fronts!

[burnleytom]

At £15 million, that’s £3 million to Charlton.

[boatshed bill]

We have had some good seasons from Nick Pope and made a massive profit on him.We have 2 cracking keepers left to take his place.
I don’t think Pope would have been comfortable playing out from the back.
Talk of getting 20 million plus was just plain stupid.

If we sell Pope and sign Muric I can see little reason for us keeping Hennessey or Norris (assuming we can find buyers), even possibly sell BPF.

[gandhisflipflop]

This isn't about asset stripping to clear debts. The new business model is buy low, develop and sell for profit. I'm fine with that.

It’s a shame that some of the fan base are too dense to see it.

[BurnleyFC]

Yet so far we’ve re-signed Jay Rod (32), Cork (32) and Barnes (32).

[gandhisflipflop]

Yet so far we’ve re-signed Jay Rod (32), Cork (32) and Barnes (32).

Barnes chose to activate his extension - nowt we could do with that. Jay and cork are excellent players at this level. Do you seriously think when people mean buy low sell high that the entire 1-11 is going to be made up of kids? There needs to be a blend.

[KRBFC]

£15m towards the £48m owed to Garlick, Collins and Cornet should cover the rest once we've paid Stoke and Lyon the full transfer fees.

If it had been up to me, I’d have added Ben Mee to that list too. We will need these sorts of players even more if we are bringing in a good few youngsters and / or players from outside the UK.

[Woodleyclaret]

Fao Guitargeorge I was and I always got pxxxxx off when directors sold off our top assets with little regard for the fans
Directors are a necessary evil in football but the sense of being let down doesn't improve with age.
We had £90m parachute payment and Pace claimed our finances were in a good place after his loan renegotiation .Obviously he was misquoted.

[BurnleyFC]

I’m all for buying young kids with potential high resale value, but I think we also need a marquee signing - much like Andre Gray last time we dropped.

I just don’t think ALK have the money to accommodate it.

[NewClaret]

At £15 million, that’s £3 million to Charlton.

Does make me wonder if Newcastle are after someone else without a sell on clause and we’ve agreed to do this on the cheap for a bigger fee elsewhere.

Otherwise just cannot believe we’d sell a keeper with some of the best stats in the Prem for £8-10m!!!

[RVclaret]

£15m towards the £48m owed to Garlick, Collins and Cornet should cover the rest once we've paid Stoke and Lyon the full transfer fees.

Thanks for filling us in, Alan

[KRBFC]

The problem is we're now lumbered with 3 ageing average central midfielders and 2 poor old strikers. Blocking the progression of our youth teamers, blocking further incomings. Can't say I'm all that excited to see a Brownhill Cork and Rodriguez Barnes core, all over again.

[TsarBomba]

Yet so far we’ve re-signed Jay Rod (32), Cork (32) and Barnes (32).

We have an abundance of PL experience. We will need ALL of that to get promoted.

Mix that experience with half a dozen exciting young players, and it should stand us in good stead.

Any reasonable person can see the value in that.

[BurnleyFC]

We’ll see how it’s panning out nearer Christmas time but I’d have personally let Barnes and Rodriguez go.

I understand we might not have had an option with Barnes, though.

These four always had a chance of starting under SD, but if they dont impress they will under KV have no chance of being regular starters

I'm sorry mate but to add Brownhill to your statement is just wrong. I get feeling your going off tv and stats rather than watching a football game live, if not I am Struggling
