Benteke dose make our team look more together when he plays .
Lanzo-Ad I wait for more of your bile .

They triggered a release clause. Cos they can.

But to be fair he is a decent player, and will be fine in the Champs.

In the last 4 seasons, Wood in the PL has scored 10,10,14 and 12 goals.This season he has scored 3 PL goals in 17 appearances.
Newcastle were of course willing to pay £25 Mill for a player who turns 31 this year and it was mentioned on here there was a triggering of a release clause.

Triggering release clauses is the best way forward for Newcastle as it avoids any further fee negotiation.

£25m for a 31 year old though....

Burnley historically could hardly be considered as very active in the transfer market themselves but things seem to have gone very quiet there (even more so than before) since the new owners took over, taking loans out against the club to pay for it.

I think this is their year to go down.

Maybe Burnley will line up a bid for Benteke now... he'd suit their style of play and probably be very happy for a new opportunity. Win/win...

Useful for Burnley as well.

They can sell this player to Newcastle for an over the top fee whilst claiming to the other PL clubs who opposed the Saudi takeover that they had no choice due to the release clause.

I read in an article pertaining to the FA Cup tie that Burnley lost 2-1 at home to Huddersfield and the reporter stated that it felt like an end of the era at the Lancashire club.

Burnley this season have played 17 PL games, have attained 11 pts and are 18th in the league.
Their record in previous seasons after 17 games is as follows :

2020-21 - 16 pts, 17th position.
2019-20 - 21 pts, 12th position
2018-19 - 12 pts, 17th position
2017-18 - 31 pts, 4th position.

Burnley's 'Net Spend' covering this and the previous 2 seasons is approx £26 Mill.

According to Jordan yesterday, there wasn’t any release clause. Burnley fans on phone in, thinks it’s good business for a 31 year old, who isn’t the same this season.

That wouldn't surprise me, when I heard that the 19 PL clubs had pledged not to sell to Newcastle I thought how long will that last. Well it didn't take long not that I blame Burnley it's good business.

As for the pledge why wouldn't you sign up to it, it just means you can add a few millions onto the fee if Newcastle come calling.

It does feel as though they are capitulating -
