Burnley will disagree with you on that one. I think he's good enough to be a decent striker for a lower end premier league club. 

Premier League clubs buy players who are not good enough for the top flight regularly. 

He will get on the end of a few balls in and score a few, but ultimately don't think he is cut out technically for that level.

Also worth noting he is the same striker as Vokes, so offers nothing different to him up top, and is probably a lesser striker.

True, you would know more than Burnley about his skills. They just spent a record fee on a player who isn't good enough for the league they play on. Silly them. 

We'll see in 6 months time. Fancy a wager on how many he'll score then pal? You sound confident.

If he starts enough games, then he's good enough to be there. He's a top championship/lower EPL quality player. That's not really a huge or controversial call given his record, and level of interest from clubs (One of which paid a record fee for him..)
