    Should we sell Tarkowski?

    I'm going to say "Yes"!

    £20 million and he's gone!

    If Newcastle wants to pay us £20M as rumours suggest it would be good business sense to take that offer, since Tarkowski as indicated he will not sign a new contract so will walk away for free in the summer.

    Collins does appear to be a ready made replacement, however we need to conclude any deal quickly to allow reinvestment into our 1st team squad. Bearing in mind with the speed of our recruitment team it is unlikely to be in this transfer window.

    If he's going to help us stay up and concentrate on his football ,I'd definitely say no..Its worth losing 20 million to stay up.

    You tell me what will happen to the money we'll get for him, will it go on incoming player signings, or paying off ALK's debts, then I'll tell you whether we should sell him.

    Yes Sinkov,that is the question. Our future football status gambled against £20 million maybe for Tarks. With the games we have to play in quick succession and the size of our squad I say a know quantity is better than the unknown and placing your trust in a recruitment team looking at Carrol as a striker and Basham the defender for goodness sake; it makes you weep!! Our owners by and large are always men of straw or little vision.

    I don't think any of the money from January sales will be spent on inbounds sinkov.

    For the financial welfare of Burnley Football Club (not ALK) another £20 million in the Dry Powder Room will offer financial stability for next season.

    For £20 million I'd sell him and trust in Collins, Long and Thomas.

    Despite the point at Arsenal we still fell a further two points behind the Toon and Norwich.

    We are gone already.

    The money won't go on players, neither will it be used for the financial welfare of BFC, it will be used to service/pay off ALK's debts, so I would prefer us to keep Tarko, which will make it more likely we will survive in the PL, easily the most beneficial outcome for the financial welfare of BFC.

    Whether we keep Tarkowski or not sinkov, we are gone.

    I think we are mon ami, to stay up we are going to need at least 22 points from our last 20 games, possibly we may need more, 23, 24. 25, who knows. But seeing as we've only got 12 points from 18 games so far, taking more than a point a game from the next 20 looks way beyond us.

    Football is a business in the end. If Tarkowski has no intention of staying I would sell and realise the asset. Collins is more than able to come in. My priority would be a creative midfielder with technical ability. We simply don’t have that in the squad.
