Do you think if some of our other loanees were at Burnley they'd be playing better?

Yes,particularly McAtee.

Anyway.....lets focus on the positives with this kid.

Another £25m in the bag for Txiki.

 

[LongsightM13]

Another £25m in the bag for Txiki.

Maybe even more depending how desperate Everton are in January

Another £25m in the bag for Txiki.

If he has so much potential, I'd prefer to keep him and sell one of the current 5 centre halves.
Maybe sell only where a good buyback clause has been inserted in the agreement.

Our current crop of centre backs are all experienced, proven defenders. Selling THB for £25m to a club in the prem with a buy back is the next step in his progress.

You may be right but the only player I recall returning to us via a buyback was Angelino. Financially it may be a sound option but I really wish some young defender from the youths would breakthrough into the senior team.

Burnley lad at work has been raving about him saying he's far too good for The Championship .

Just can't seen how he can get into our squad at this time

Our current crop of CBs is breaking up in the summer.

There's simply no way that 2 of Stones, Dias, Aké, Akanji and Laporte accept being 4th and 5th choice.

At least 1 will leave next summer. THB would be a great replacement if we want to keep up the numbers.

He's right,the Championship isnt used to a player who wants to pass the ball as well as put his foot in.In respect of coming home,yes we will probably lose a centre half to transfer but im not convinced he quite has the full armoury to replace,and also would he want to sit on our bench when he could be starting for a side like Palace?

I also have a sneaky suspicion Finlay Burns might be making an impression.

Missed yesterdays mauling........5 goals against,it doesn't bode well,but how was he individually?
