Forgive my ignorance but why the anti drinkwater sentiment? Seemed like just a meh signing but seems to have stirred things up. Is there off the pitch stuff that’s passed me by?

Likes a night out apparently, and was out for weeks after he got a good hiding in a night club trying to chat up somebody else's girlfriend.

6 league starts since Aug 2017 doesn’t exactly look like someone setting the world on fire.

Funny you say that because some gossip merchant on FB has just suggested that we're in for him.  Pure coincidence that you posted shortly afterwards though.  ;D

Oh really. I dont really pay much attention to twitter fb to be honest mate.  Its more or less people making things up.

Hoping there is legs to this but who knows

In the Sky article, it  says he would be a replacement for McGinn. He's nothing like him. Thinking about it though, some experience of some sort in the midfield might not be a bad thing

Agreed but as IanJ points out, his fitness levels are a major concern. Here's the views from Burnley fans. From what I've read on their forums, this one at least doesn't call him Drinkbeer.

If we sign him I hope it turns out well but I can’t help having a Stephen Ireland feeling about this.

Signing Danny Drinkliquor to replace John McGinn would be like signing Wesley to replace Tammy Abraham.

It's paper/twitter talk and all that talk is of a loan, it's not like we've already signed him for a big wedge and lengthy contract.

Vida and Bat from Chelsea are truthful links

I don’t know why Danny Drinkwater (premier league winner and England international) is currently out of favour at Burnley, but if he does join, I won’t write him off. Our own Tyrone was deemed superfluous at Bournemouth, and that worked out ok.

They all are until it happens. But this is the transfer bollocks thread after all. Oh and we are all still scarred by the TSM1 incident. Surely it could never happen...until it did

Him being a piss head might have something to do with him being out of favour at Burnley.

Sure. If we were getting him from Chelsea that is. He had a chance to establish himself again at Burnley and failed to do so. A club which has provided Ashley Westwood a solid career at this level. So surely that’s on the player?
