Everybody seemed to be bed wetting over Che Adams? - never heard of him till about a week ago. Plus he wasn't for sale.

Cant see anybody who has had a sparkling window signing players that you think "Wow - why didn't we do that!" - Could be wrong on that but I am sure someone will tell me otherwise.

I would have perhaps liked to have seen a few others go to create space for freshening up in summer once we know what league we are in. Wells/ Walters/Defour etc but it is what it is and its no great calamity.
We absolutely needed an additional high quality, fit and ready centre midfielder. Vokes for Crouch like you say Casper no big deal, I have a feeling Vokes will be fondly remembered for being thought of better than he actually was.

Evans is rocket fuelled and is another Andre Gray without the attitude. We should have stumped up and bought him, but that is just not the Burnley way!
