Been told tonight Hobbs and the agent of a certain Burnley midfield player (out of contract soon) have had a couple of meetings…
He's championship level dreck we shouldn't be touching.Would not surprise me at all that one. Low maintenance and no fee (you could question why we need another CM when we generally only play 2 and we already own 4).
I wouldn't get bent out of shape on it, he's ok, but it's probably our lowest priority area.
I agree we don't really need him unless we are anticipating Gomes leaving.Makes no sense to me if funds are tight, its our most well stocked position.
If he was a striker bought in as back up to cover injuries and see out end of games I could maybe see it.
Ugh, Gomes will leave at some point but the thought of replacing him with BrownhillI agree we don't really need him unless we are anticipating Gomes leaving.

If we want to upgrade our midfield with a realistic target then we should go after Dewsbury-Hall. They may need to sell even if they come up depending on the deal they cut with the PL. He'd be perfect in a 433 to complement Gomes and Lemina. All fantasy I suppose as we won't pay the 20odd million it'd take to get him.
Probably helped by knowing he has someone right behind him ready to step in.Not that I rate Broja, but Muniz's form has been superb, that's why he hasn't got in.
Sheaf at Coventry has looked really good in the games I've seen him lately too, including against us.If we want to upgrade our midfield with a realistic target then we should go after Dewsbury-Hall.

I think you saw yesterday why Kompany wanted to upgrade on Muric this season.I think it'd take more than £20M for KDH after the season he's had. I think Spurs have been linked with him as well.
The only Burnley player I'd look at would be Arijanet Muric. Good solid keeper, passes the ball excellently and I think would count as homegrown as he was in City's academy (might be wrong on the last point).
Maybe it isn't him then? As it was stated it was a Burnley midfielder that is out of contract?Yep, he's not out of contract either as was suggested.
