Desperately needs replacing rather than having Kachunga and Quaner next in line to start after the new lads 😕

3 weeks to see live how he's doing in the claret and blue shirt - I wonder:
1. If he'll play against us?
2. What sort of reception will the Town fans give him particularly as the last proper game he played was Wembley?
3. How him and Wood will match up against our back four?

The reasoning behind offering Nakhi a contract could be that we knew his worth and getting him in a contract would enable town to play hard ball on the price possibly.

We need a replacement this window. Otherwise this isn't a good deal for us. Whilst understanding your point, I would say that it isn't a pressing problem for us because we still have a loan option left (and I think that doesn't include overseas loans, but I'm not sure?). We are only ever going to play with one central striker so we have reasonable depth ( for us, maybe not for Man ity) in Mounie -clear 1st choice Depoitre Kachunga Quaner I can see us take a little bit of time to to see what options might be available over the loan market in the next few weeks. There will be some big transfers today which will sideline some previous starters who then might be available for loan. |

It's 'So-long and thanks for your efforts' to a bang average championship player from me.
Time will tell but IMO Burnley have just assembled one of the weakest strike forces in this division.

The thing is Burnley have changed this season to playing one up front and they look better for it. I'd be surprised if Dyche thinks Wells is good enough to change his entire system for so I imagine he'll be more of a 'throw him on when chasing games and going two up top' sort of a signing for them.

I can't see a replacement coming in. Not this window anyway.
"Nahki is a great character and has been a very important player for Huddersfield Town for a long time but now this move works for everyone.
“He is a very good player but at this moment in time we have a number of high quality players and options in our offensive line."
Mounie, Depoitre, Kache & Quaner all brought in as strikers and we only play one up front. Time will tell whether we need another. Depends how well LD, EK & CQ do if/when they're required to step in should Mounie be unavailable, off form or need a rest.
As for it being a step up for him - it is. He's gone from being 3rd/4th choice for one striker's position to competing with 4 other players for 2 strikers' positions. He'll get more game time at Burnley, but he's not had to drop a division to do so. He'll also get to play alongside a big striker so Burnley are more likely to get the best out of him than we are anyway.
Plus, it's a step up in terms of the fact he's never played in the PL before.

Cheers nakhi it's worked out well for all parties, I wish you well in the future as long as it's not at our expense. Huddersfield have gained big time you've probably cost us nothing 2.3mill to Bradford and 2.7 mill would easily have covered your wages and that's if it's 5 million. So thanks for helping us to the promised land. Good luck !!

He was out injured following surgery with one year left. If we waited till January he would have been even less with no games under his belt Striker Andre Gray went for £18m. Championship CB Harlee Dean went for £2.2m. I don't mind Town selling him but I think we have fallen significantly short in demonstrating the ruthfulness of other clubs when selling. your missing the point that Wells may not have been happy to stay here.. once we are not going to play him anything like regularly and he is unhappy then its get the best you can...He wont play a right lot at Burnley tbh.. |

I don't think the loan market reopens to the premier league. I seem to remember that loans between PL clubs finish today and reopen for the league in a week or two. |

We need a replacement. Depoitre is reportably over weight hence why he wasn't on the bench against Southampton. So that leaves us with kachunga and Colin. Kachunga could do OK but isnt big enough to be a line striker and Colin isn't good enough

The bottom line here is that if wagner wanted to keep wells he would have made sure that the contract was improved so wells signed up.
The fact we didnt move heaven and earth to keep him proves wagner doesnt rate him...
Good enuff for me

Once you take out what we'll have paid to the chickens + Nakhi Wells wages. He's cost us fuck all. That's good business from Deno, on a guy running his contract down. Thanks for the goals Nakhi, here hoping you have a dry spell from here on in.

My mistake, I hadn't realised the loan window had changed to close at the same time as the transfer window. It used to be about a month afterwards previously? good point, we'll probably not be loaning anybody today. |

God your like an LP going around and around. 1.We do not know what we got for him. 2.Out injured after surgery. 3.If fit Wagner did not want him. 4.Burnley maybe the only team who wanted him. Lets be grateful for whatever it puts into DWs war chest. |

It's 'So-long and thanks for your efforts' to a bang average championship player from me. Time will tell but IMO Burnley have just assembled one of the weakest strike forces in this division. As you say it's all about opinion - Burnley now have Chris Wood, Nahki Wells, Sam Vokes, Ashley Barnes and Johnathan Walters as their main FIVE out and out experienced proven strikers. We have Mounie and DePoitre, and for whatever reason DePoitre has not set the club on fire since his arrival. If Mounie is injured we have Kachunga (not a one up front striker throughout his career) Quaner (at times he does struggle to control a football) and the likes of Lolley. Chris Wood alone has scored more than all our strikers put together - it's putting a hell of a lot of responsibility on Ince and Palmer to suddenly start scoring in the Premiership. All about opinion, and I totally accept that Wagner knows a hundred times more than I will ever know about football management and has worked absolute miracles, but I think it's fair to express a bit of concern about our lack of finishing ability. Statistically it's weaker than last season, and we're now in the Premiership. |
