Broja

[ClaretinBudapest]

This fella looks to be finally shaping up.

From what I saw of him in the 1st half against Fulham he looks like something we are missing, he is strong, can play a bit and run with the ball.

He literally hasn't played for years due to injury but now looks to be getting back into shape. If he keeps fit we have a real asset on our hands with this lad, he looks a massive up grade on Foster, who has been disappointing throughout his Burnley career

I know good un when I see one, and will nail my reputation to the goal post with this lad

It will be criminal if Broja,Edwards and Tresor do not start next time out but it will be typical Cardy if he waits until we go behind to bring them on.

My feelings exactly CIB. I would give Worral a start too, and Pires.

Whereas Sunderland have a right go, get in front and work hard to stay in it, we try to stay in it, don’t and then we are looking to try to equalise. Time to change that policy, cos everyone has had their fill of it.
Keep Broja fit, hopefully his injuries are behind him, and we have a proper striker.

I think for broja he’s been obviously unlucky with injury but he scored 9-10 goals for Southampton in the Premiership on loan 3-4 years back and he’s still a young man who could become successful yet.

We are sometimes judgemental on here and state he’s a donkey and why did we pay what we did.
However reality says £20 million simply isn’t much money even if it seems a lot for us and a gamble but if he scored 10 goals for us this year not only would his value increase but we may survive and get the premiership money another year.

Hopefully his goal will
Instal confidence and Burnley will benefit - I hope that we can actually create chances for him otherwise the doom and gloomers on here will write him off and he’ll disappear in to the abyss.

You have played the beautiful game army88, it's amazing how a bit of confidence can change a player's fortunes. He's bound to score against Everton.

Certainly I had him down as a “donkey” based upon his two starts. Obviously, I was being harsh in making that judgment. If he could get some decent service, as he did from Edwards, then he could well put a few away.

The trouble is that Cardy is not setting up the side to provide that service. Flemming, when he plays, is mostly between the half way line and their box, with no one in support to feed off him. When he does get into the box, the ball in either doesn’t appear and ends up back with Dubravka, or the cross is poor.

The same was true of Broja until Edward’s go involved.

Moyes will be all over the big ball delivery and set pieces as it’s our Achilles heel and their strength- Tarky - Kean - Beto - Barry - Dibling
All giants in comparison to us -

Hope we can get Broja some service as you say.

Need our biggest strongest lads on for that battle Dave, you’re bang on right. Worrall a must, Ekdal also fine, cos they lack pace and quality down the middle. Set piece wise those threats you mention are a big worry. Don’t concede any needless corners. I would start Flemming maybe, though won’t get much change from Tarks. Broja come on later?

That's me Army, I've seen enough of him to make a judgement, he's a player I've taken an interest in since he appeared on the scene at Chelsea, must be 5/6 years ago now, so it's not a judgement I've made on scant evidence. His scoring record is abysmal, just nine PL goals in 87 appearances for Chelsea, Southampton, Fulham, Everton and Burnley.

One headed goal against Bournemouth doesn't turn him into a thoroughbred and in horse-racing terms I wouldn't back him to win a seller at Catterick, never mind the Epsom Derby. If he does disappear into the abyss it will be because he isn't good enough and hasn't scored enough goals. It will be nowt to do with anything the doomers and gloomers on here write or say about him.

Incidentally army, Aldi have a Chablis Premier Cru for 14.99, it's a belter, I'm going back for some more tomorrow, I'd happily pay a tenner more for it.

I hope the lad proves us all wrong mon ami and I'm just getting my coat on to nip down to Aldi.
