adamnich Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 From my Burnley ST holder friend when i asked about him: " Great Championship player but will only be a squad player in the PL. Makes sense. Good on the ball but sometimes gets caught out. " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bez Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 17 minutes ago, Owlinmad said: Do you really think David Jones is a better player than Alex Lopez ? Seen both of them, Lopez for us and Jones for Wigan/Burnley. Yea I think Jones is a better player but older. Lopez is developing and Championship was the right level for him. Jones is a top end Championship midfielder and could play a role in the Prem as a backup. That position isn't flashy at all but usually a key part of promotion comes from having a stable, ball controlling midfielder like Jones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BRADFIELDOWLS Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Looks like another smart bit of business by the club. Not sure who is doing all this new player identification but they look spot on. Giant, left -footed centre back mimimum and think we will do top 2. Burton and Leeds are must wins if we want lay down the gauntlet. Brilliant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markg Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Hearing that Jones has refused to travel with the Burnley squad for their next match. Dyche is fuming, his throat sounds as though it is red raw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joelswfc Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Never seen him play, but his CV is impressive in the Championship. Career pass accuracy of 83%. 7 assists in 41 Championship games last season. Very high number of passes per game. Likes to play a long ball and a good interceptor of passes. Looks like he would fit the bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
