    I think that they expect to sell McNeil and Tarks in January, once Cornet has learnt the “Burnley way” and is Dyche fit. That way they will pocket say £40 million plus. Dyche is on record for saying that he will not stand in way of players who want to further their careers. Tarks wants out. He could play for a bigger team, no doubt. McNeil is still at the beginning of his career but Everton, to name but one, have expressed an interest.

    He has played left and right wing as well as full back and up front earlier in career , I can only think He’s going right wing or left wing and Mcneil in the hole if it’s left wing.
    It’s brave for Dyche if that’s what he’s thinking mind , if he has pace goes at people and doesn’t hide for 70 mins in a game he can play right midfield for me JBG seems to find a hole to hide in every week I watch him.

    I don’t think as it stands we’re capable of changing to a formation like BT suggests a lot because as you say we’re so lacking in pace and heart if I’m honest - I can’t say I like the football we play a lot of the time but I don’t have a problem with it if the manager just reacts to changes and stops the opposition from gaining momentum when they change shape.

    I think maybe it’s time to start and introduce some of the youths for shorter periods in games and see if we can maybe be lucky with one or two.

    'Attack is the best form of defence.' As I have said before we actually look good when we attack teams and take them on. If the ball is in the oppositions half they are less likely to score. All this deep defending of a 1-0 lead is absolute nonsense and doesn't work for us, sooner or later the other team as we repeatedly witness are going to score.
