[Albion] Dan Burn

[whosthedaddy]

I said on another thread interesting what pundit said against Spurs when he thought it strange Burns didnt win any attacking corners. He said other forwards who are 6' jump 7' at corners Burn does the same and he is 6'7"

I think I remember this mentioned on Match of the Day a few weeks ago and was said by Micah Richards. It went something like this...

"Dan Burn is 6ft 7" tall and reaches 6ft 8" when he jumps"

Worryingly I can't disagree with Micah, maybe try a bit harder Dan

Possibly our most under-rated player. He's a far better footballer than many fans give him credit for.

I think he has emerged as my favourite player from a sea of players with incredible flair.

Dan Burn is a magnificent footballer, I love watching him play.

It usually fills me with horror when he gets the ball, and occasionally he surprises me. TBF he has got better

I was just thinking tonight it’s amazing how many goal scoring chances Dan gets into. That can’t be a coincidence.

If he could finish he could score 10 a season.

Looks like Bruno has been teaching him how to catch a skier on his toe. Magnificent control tonight.

A masterclass from our defence tonight. Villa didn’t get a sniff

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

There is no one in the world the same height as him that can bring high a ball down with their first touch as magnificently as he does.

Because he can get from one box to the other in four strides?

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

Probably one of our best ball playing centre backs ever. But unfortunate that the very best are all in the same team.

Shame he does not win more headers , he should be so more dangerous in the opposition box , should really get half a dozen goals a season from corners alone , perhaps he is not aggressive enough

He’s had that ability for a while. He did it at the beginning of last season at City and Aguero - chasing down for the mis-control - applauded him.

As a critic hats off had a good game tonight. Its a shame with a squad of around 28 players we have to play Burn or Alzate as left wingback

That’s true. As well as Burn played (and he did) we really do miss March. And that is huge credit to Solly and Potter - 12 months ago I never thought I would say that March was so important. Hugely improved.
