Build such a poor side that has been in the top division for how long??
For a football expert you'd expect a more reasonable opinion
Zero forward planning which has led to us being a poor side for almost 2 years. Plucky hard working defensive side sure, not an ounce of quality on the ball, not an ounce of craft/guile/speed/creativity in the 4 forwards which has led to us playing Cornet out of position. Look at the age of our squad, where's the bright youngster on the bench?
Dyche built this squad, he chose to waste £5m on Dale Stephens instead of signing a younger player with the potential to replace Cork (which we now need btw).
He chose to sell Vokes and fritter money away on Crouch and then spend close to £20m on then 30 year old Jay Rodriguez.
Dyche chose to bring in Aaron Lennon instead of signing a potential replacement for an injury prone one legged awful Gudmundsson.
The 3 areas we currently lack: CM, ST, RM.
It's not anyone elses fault Dyche doesn't operate in the loan market or use the loans on the rare occasion he does. Bamford never got a chance, he'd have been perfect for us, a large part of his family are Burnley fans too. Now look at Bamford since..... a poor decision
