See the match?
FINALLY a crumb of news on a left back / left wing back.
His highlights reel looks pretty good...although I probably just like the Black Eyed Peas.
Looks fast and can dribble.
Based on what Lamptey brought to the team, I see this as the most important position that needs a quality upgrade.

Sometimes the obvious answer is the right answer. Exactly what we need. Yes from me.

His crossing has a lot of room for improvement.

Depends if we end up playing 3 at the back a lot more as well. Not sure Burn would be a LWB but still a very good option as a LB

That’s a good shout actually.
Watching the above highlights the lad has got incredible pace. Him and Lamptey on each side could be frightening for the opposition.
Interestingly Leeds lot already putting Rico in their line ups with Koch etc. Don’t know if they’ve heard an inside scoop.

Exactly. A left sided, left footed Lamptey-type in the LWB position with three at the back.
I think that's definitely what Potter prefers.
Really important position to fill. And probably our biggest opportunity to upgrade.
I wonder if Cochrane will make the senior squad this year. Hope he plays tomorrow so I can take a look.
A part of me still holds out hope for Bernardo. He shows flashes of being decent.

I rate Burn as a LB
I don’t rate Burn as a LWB
If we play 4 at the back I’ve no problem with Burn being that selection. But if we are going to play with 3 CB and therefore with wingbacks Dan Burn isn’t that player

Do we stand any chance if we’re battling with two such behemoths like Leeds and Villa? Probably best if we just walk away now, save any embarrassment for our tiny, irrelevant relegation certainties.
Positionally he’s a CB playing LB IMO.
Hugely impressive is very generous, did what was expected had some good games, but also some poor ones.

True, when even our contracted players are Leeds through and through. We should know our place, and it’s scrabbling around for the crumbs that the big boys drop.
Smith sniffing around players he managed at Brentford.

This may be a controversial opinion, but I think Dan Burn has been exceptional at LB.
In fact, I think Dan Burn has been almost as reliable, skillful and productive at Left Back as Bruno was at Right Back.
No joke.

At some point GPott will launch Dan Burn up front. Such a good footballer (for a VERY big man).
SULLY COULDNT SHOOT

This is the sort of signing I want us to be making.... hope we get him.

Thus is the LB I would love us to sign. Always looked class and with pace to burn. With Burn would give us excellent options at LB depending on the system and opponent
