Didn't seem to have a choice did he? were any prem clubs actually linked with him, hed left burnley and was facing championship or saudi
going back to champ would have been a bit embarrasing. |  |

i never been convinced he's the style of player that we needed either for the double pivot.
Pre premier league we had the most success with 2 ball winners, who could progress the ball to the technical players.
Or as we seem to be evolving to a ball winner and a ball player.
Brownhil has always looked to me to be a box to box player, of course he could have evolved into our style but not sold that he wouild have suited us. |  | | |

Pretty sure he wanted and expected a PL gig, but none were willing to pay the outrageous sign-on fee and wages he was rumoured to want. |  | | |

Indeed, a rich man's Jack Taylor - a lovely footballer who doesn't fit our style at all. | | | |

Talking about him the other day actually.
For 4/5 years he’s been yo-yoing with Burnley… I’m not surprised he’s just said fck it and gone for the money instead of yo-yoing with us/Leicester etc must be pretty frustrating to be on loop like that. |  |

Was always likely to be the case given he walked away from Premier League football with Burnley and the reported signing on fee he was looking for.
Honestly I'm not sure I blame him. Clearly been earning good money in his career but he's already played in the premier league, he's 29 now and this will be his last (and first) properly silly pay day. He'll probably earn more in the next 24 months than he has in the past 10 years, and I can't really blame him tbh. |  | | |

Bit like Dara to be honest. I wonder if he thought he would rather settle than end up going to the Prem and relegated once more. |  | | |

Burnley mate told me he was on just over £100k pw at Burnley, so guess he priced himself out of the market here. |  |

Unlikely, that would be way out of kilter with the rest of the squad.
He's reportedly on £100k p/w in Saudi, tax free. He could do 2 years there and with his signing on fee he'll probably coin something in the region of £15m. | | | |

You weren't convinced a player with 24 G/A from midfield last season would be what we needed? [Post edited 4 Sep 16:28]

Are Jack Clarke, Philogene, Szmodics and Akpom what we need?
I hope so but it isn't only about past stats. |  |

Never have an issue with players going for the dough, we’d nearly all do it in our jobs.
Probably been a £40k p/w earner, now will be over £100k p/w. Good luck to the lad, grab it while you can. [Post edited 4 Sep 22:54]
