Am I the only only one who thinks this whole McBurnie saga is quite possibly his agent letting the club know that he is keen. Whether the club is is a very different matter.
To be honest, although certainly better than we have at the moment, his age and his record over the past few years coupled with his supposed wage expectations, mean, for me, we could probably find someone who’d suit us more. One thing I think would be positive is his level of enthusiasm on the pitch. He’d drag players along with him. I just worry that he will have lost some of that energy he had given he is not in his early twenties any longer.
I suspect we will sign him IF our other targets don’t materialise and IF he’s still without a club at that point. I think it likely that we will enter the loan market for our first choice centre forward. Which makes sense in some ways if we think Wales is the longer term answer.
I always liked McBurnie though I must admit. Liked his personality on the pitch as well as his play.
