Burnley v. West Spam

[ClaretinBudapest]

Not in the same league as Josh Brownhill who would have bagged a dozen goals by now.

Brownie scored 6 goals in 111 PL appearances BT.He was no better than our current crop in the top tier of English football.He did put a decent shift in though unlike this lot.

In his last season with us he had improved exponentially CiB, I wish he had stayed.

Are you talking about the same Brownhill who you all said was not good enough for the Premier League, even though he had played over 100 games at that level in three and a half seasons?

I loved him and never understood his detractors, he certainly knew where the net was.

Gentlemen Brownhill was a v decent footballer ( as I?ve said many times they all are or they wouldn?t be playing at this level - even championship level )

Josh for me any way was just in between an excellent championship and decent premiership

The proof though is in where he?s plying his trade now -
If he was above average at this level a club would have paid the money he wanted - they didn?t and he?s followed the money.

This league is ruthless and it accepts no lightweights no dithering and weakness -,it doesn?t lie in that we are 2nd bottom for a reason and Brownhill had to move because no one fancied him.

Not altogether true army88, we offered him fortunes to stay.

You nailed it Army.He was a top Championship player but despite all his effort he was not a good PL player otherwise somebody would have snapped him up last summer.

Brownhill isn't and never was good enough for the Premier league and wouldn't have made the slightest difference to our present situation.

There was a reason why no Premier league club was after him, because he just lacked what it takes at the highest level

You are not $hit if you can score 20 goals from midfield in the Championship.

He is not daft. Stay in England and get moaned at and pick up peanuts or go to Saudi for 2 years and earn over ?100,000 per week at the age of 29. It's a no brainer as far as I'm concerned, particularly when you have played over 450 matches in 12 years.
