Not just saying this but rather have Mcburnie than fletcher. Honestly really impressed if we have ladnded him..
Sunderland were poor with grabban in team , hoping they remain poor even with fletcher signing for them
You seen Mcburnie when he played for Swansea this season? He has looked a proper handful in a side that’s lacked creativity his work rate and physical presence is spot on. His goal rate is as good as any at 23’s reserve level surely he can be excused for not banging em in- in prem! Mentioned this earlier on another thread but fletcher is living in league 1 hype and a few goals in West Ham’s pre season a lot to prove at this level. Give Mcburnie a chance just hope it’s done. Clubs in for him speaks volume Burnley wanted to take him on a permanent - guarantee he will play at a better level than fletcher long term.
That’s why I was asking. I don’t watch Premier League football so wanted to understand why some felt he was a great signing.
Not sure how we’ve pulled it off to be honest fair play to the lad maybe he thought he owed is one from dabarcle last window..
We’ve got very strong links with Swansea. Local fella who’s high up at Swansea & deals in recruitment knows & is close to several people at Oakwell
