Burnley Thread - 2021/22

If he goes to Burnley after they've been docked 30 odd points that where they will be. Burnley are staring into the Abyss. So I repeat why leave Anderlecht for a 1st division team?

Sounds like Mrs Kompany wants to come home to me

Quite possible. Also the Anderlecht fan on here said something about behind the scenes shenanigans there also.

Always a secret sounding story attached to stuff. I'm more inclined to go with the boring old Mrs Kompany wants to come home personally

Looking into it, it was a "mutual agreement" that Anderlecht pushed for.

Never liked Burnley. This is a mindfuck.

There are two ways of reading that line!

The Championship the fourth best supported league in Europe and the fifth most watched league in Europe on tv.

The standard is brilliant and it’s in the top ten for best leagues in Europe full stop (ranked 9th in Europe by UEFA).

We played Brugge in the CL this season and they were easily one of the poorest teams we’ve ever faced in the competition. We’ve had much tougher tests from numerous Championship teams in the domestic cups.

Why on Earth wouldn’t he take the chance to manage in the Chsmpionship?

Yeah I get that feeling to family wants to come back to Manchester let’s hope he does a good job

Shame he didn't fancy coming back home to learn from Pep rather than go to the many fingered cunts.

Saying that I have often wondered if not all was well between them, Pep was very reluctant to play him at one stage before the 'no, Vinny, no' goal season.

Has anyone ever driven through Padiham?

It's the closest you'll ever get to Deliverance!

Fair enough, but doing it with a team that is splintering and potentially getting docked points with an uncertain financial future isn’t the best pick from that league…..

He would have been better at say…

Blackburn or Preston in my opinion
