    Burke

    It seems that he really is returning. I’m comfortable with that. There is some talent there, let’s hope his Scots experience has developed him.

    Jury is out with me Prando, a lot of ability but doesn't seem to notice what's going on around him. Runs into blind alleys a lot. Maybe Bilic will help him progress. Better suited to playing down the middle imo.
    Anyway i would sooner see him there than HRK.

    He is our best striker right now!

    I just hope that his game has developed while he was up there - particularly his technical ability.

    He definitely has the attributes, but he needs the touch and awareness.

    I’ve said for ages he should play through the middle.

    Pace more important than skill at this level.

    Get Rid. Hopeless. If you're that good it don't take 6 managers to discover it.

    What's the odds that all 6 managers used him where he was least effective, I've not seen any other player get to the byline as easy as he did.

    I agree! Less grace than a cow in a field. Speed is fantastic but speed of thought and intelligence on the ball sadly lacking!

    PS - he’s OK compared to HRK🤣

    HRK was very useful last season. I admit he isnt a top top striker but he has done ok. Gets way too much flack.
