Or if Brownhill stays 3 centre backs - overlapping wing backs

Please take Brownhill off that list.We need players who do not pass to the opposition.Quote:

Only three players achieved more than 75% pass success last season:- Dwight McNeil 79% from 992 passes: Josh Brownhill 78% from 1149 passes and Kevin Long 78% from 105 passes.Quote:

Perhaps Brownhill does have something to offer to those PL clubs who are showing an interest.
Have you got his stats for goals and assists Sub whilst at BFC?.Quote:

It is fair to say that Brownhill has truly taken over the Jeff Hendrick mantra as far as Clarets fans are concerned, he will be better off leaving the club from his point of view.
Not as far as this fan is concerned Sub, I could see Hendrick wasn't up to the job, but Brownhill in the Championship is a goer for me.Quote:

I know CIB hates Brownhill but I don’t believe he was bought to create and score lots of goals , he was bought to get a foot in break things up and give it to others who can be creative, problem we had was really that was Mcneil and his form had dropped off considerably, if you add to that the fact that Dyche had the midfield strictly rigid and never getting high enough up the pitch or beyond the forwards heaven forbid.Quote:

To be honest Sub, Jeff is so far off my radar these days I didn't even realise he'd gone to QPR. Just checking the stats there and he featured in 11 games, of which QPR won 2, (18%), of the 41 games he didn't feature they won 18 (44%).Quote:
