I’ve just read an article about Oliver Burke. An interesting perspective and highlights 28m in transfers for someone that has only started 22 games. It also highlights how OB is back where he was 3 years ago, in the championship, playing youth football at international level. This story perhaps uncovers some of the things that are wrong with the great game. I wonder how he’s have faired if he’d have stayed with us?

If his form dipped they would of been giving him abuse like they do with Osborn.hes had injuries since he’s left so it’s always been stop start for him.if he had stayed he may of picked up some injuries as well.nobody has a crystal ball to predict.he left and that’s that in My eyes.

2 star he won't be complaining he's a millionaire.
He's fared quite well compared to most lads his age and for doing very little.
Wingers are often just a flash in the pan ,Franz Carr the perfect example.
All it shows is how overpaid footballers are.

13 million looks good money at the minute.Clubs pay big money for potential. It's a gamble for both parties.

13 million for Burke was a master stroke of business for a lad that is little more than quick and strong, sadly the only person to benefit from it was fawaz who it appears took the money out of the club

I think there was more to him than just quick and strong.

Ha ha, quality retort! I did think he had enormous potential but doesn’t seem to have done much lately.

{Ed001's Note - he got nicknamed blank hard drive at RBL, as they would give him instructions but, unless they were incredibly simple he would struggle to follow them. Football intelligence seems to be his issue judging by that, rather than ability.}
