Striker Ashley Barnes*set to leave Turf Moor

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

On the 'ead son!
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.
Ulloa hasn't the pace as our no9 to keep up with the wingers, in our counter attacking PL style.
Agree that I'd rather have Barnes at this stage in his career, than Walters at his.

On his last warning
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.

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

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.

I'd explode with happiness if we got Ashley back

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.
