    That would be ideal, but there must eb a reason we haven't gone back in for Kevin Long. Whether he's still needed at Turf Moor or we don't fancy him... I can't help but think we'd have got him in by now. We appear to be putting a lot of pressure on Liam Lindsay to fill the Roberts void. I hope he does, but if not, an experienced CB may be essential.

    Long was on the bench at Stamford Bridge today, as he has been in several pre-season games. While he's not first choice for Burnley, he seems to be an integral part of their squad and perhaps a first line of cover. I can't therefore see them letting him go on loan.

    The seemingly obsession with Long seems a bit strange to me. Yes, he was good for us but that was what 18 months ago?

    1. 25 games, the majority off the bench for Burnley.
    2. Remainder of his games have been in League 2 and League 1.
    3. 26 years old, and played less games than some of our younger players.

    Kevin Long is a Premier League defender and Adam Jackson isn't, so....
