Striker Ashley Barnes*set to leave Turf Moor

[amexer]

Sad thing is he would give defenders harder time then what we have at moment.

A positive is sad!

I know what you mean. A sad indictment of the lack of PL quality in our current strikers.

 

[trueblue]

At this level, he's an improvement on Hemed - so if it''s Barnes + 1 more, wouldn't be the worst thing.

 

[hans kraay fan club]

If this is true, then Burnley's striker business has been absolutely WOEFUL.

Downgrade Barnes for Walters
Downgrade Gray for Wells
Spend £15m for a minor upgrade of Vokes to Wood

Shambles

 

[royceyboy]

I never really rated Barns, but he now has PL experience, and he's better than nothing at all. So I'd take him as a squad player. But he's not worth spending millions on.

 

[Weststander]

I'd happily have him back. Obviously not if it scuppers the move for Ulloa

Ulloa hasn't the pace as our no9 to keep up with the wingers, in our counter attacking PL style.

 

[B.W.]

We can do much better... or can we?

Agree that I'd rather have Barnes at this stage in his career, than Walters at his.

 

[Megazone]

It does make sense to bring back AB.

We need a strong, reliable scapegoat this season with all the losses we're going to endure. Unless we're bringing back JFC (unlikely), AB really is the man to fill in this massive hole we have in our the squad.

 

[LowKarate]

I'd like this to happen just to see how many people implode with rage.

Please please please please please please please please please!

 

[severnside gull]

I'm a massive Ashley Barnes fan BUT............... sell him for £800K. Buy him back for £8M! No on principle.

 

[danish seagull]

It's a big no from me.

 

[Icy Gull]

It's a MASSIVE yes from me. An aggressive in your face striker who brings something we haven't got and has Premier League survival credentials. Yes Yes Yes get him in, even at 8 million. He can also play where he is told to and would definitely be a CH type player imo.

Singing Aye Aye....

 

[MattBackHome]

I'd explode with happiness if we got Ashley back

 

[WSU Dilettante]

Barnes would be a smart bit of business, at the right price. Could have a bit of an attitude at times but always committed on the pitch. Better than Hemed.

 

[Honky Tonx]

Just seen price tag so it no and many more nos from me

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

Yep, love Hemed but think Barnes is better.

Sell Hamed for 8 buy Barnes for 8

it is a straight swap

 

[DJ NOBO]

Sell Hamed for 8 buy Barnes for 8

Barnes over hemed every time.

 

[junior]

Please go no. He was absolutely toilet first time around.
