Don't worry guys. He will be gone this summer and you won't suffer anymore. 38 clean sheets and the league title next season.

Lol

He has a choice of mori or jags doesn't mean much that he is picking mori,he won't be picking him next season.

He had the financial clout to buy a top class centre back in January and seemingly didn't even look at any...that suggests to me that he was happy with the current pairing

Mate come on would you be happy with them two,and as I've said they won't be both playing next season,and as a former world class centre back koeman knows this as well.

We're on earth does it say seemingly he didn't look at any centre backs in January the major rumours that didn't happen we're van dijk & Michael Keane

 

[Jreverton1]

Best of a bad bunch, in truth should be nowhere near the first team but love his passion.

 

[Bob Elstone]

He's a liability.

 

[Norwegian Cow]

Is it just me, or does he look like Robles?

You're not wrong...

...you can only buy a 'top class' CB if they are available. Perhaps the player he wanted wasn't available, things like that happen.

What does "available" mean though? Every player has a price, you don't know who's available until you make a bid.

...I presume lots of enquiries were made. You simply can't buy every player you want when you want.

I'm not saying that. But likewise, just because a player isn't explicitly on the transfer list doesn't mean he isn't "available". Say he wanted Michael Keane, obviously Burnley don't want to sell him. But if a bid came in of around £20m it might have been too good to turn down and the player might (would) be interested in the move, therefore he becomes available.

Yeah, because we'll have kicked this joker to the curb and signed Virgil Van Dijk like we should have done originally

Two wasted years

...I very much doubt a bid of £20m would have made Keane available. You have to consider what Burnley would have to pay for a replacement and the potential cost of relegation. Lots will go on behind the scenes, particularly if the player is keen on the move. It wouldn't surprise me if we made enquiries about top targets who are genuinely unavailable in January but told to come back and enquire again in the summer.

I hope he signs with Liverpool.
