Sell Amdouni and buy Ings? Fans on transfers
As the transfer window is now open again until 1 September, we asked you to tell us one player you want Burnley to sign, and a player you want to be sold this summer.Here are some of your comments:Peter: There's quite a few we could sell. Top of the list would be Zeki Amdouni and Lyle Foster as neither are good enough for the Premier League. As for buying, any reasonably good striker as that should be the main priority!Zion: We need to sign a striker and a midfielder - somebody like Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall. Also, some new centre-backs are needed because we are probably going to lose Maxime Esteve and we have already lost CJ Egan-Riley.Sam: Egan-Riley is a big loss to a back five that achieved so much as a unit last year. I'm concerned about the disruptive effect of players returning from exile who were 'too good' to play in the Championship (Amdouni, Ekdal). We obviously need a striker and the Danny Ings link should be explored. Honestly, I'd be happy if we put up a fight but come back down because the Championship years are much more interesting and exciting.Jubilicious: Sell Mike Tresor as he won't play this season. Buy anyone who doesn't want stupidly high wages.
