Assombalonga looks a good buy at 5mil+ and seems to work well with Fryatt. Cohen needs to go back to LB and will do once the injured Midfielders come back.
Nice to have some strikers who can score goals and also get wins when not deserved. Thats top 6 material
Bournemouth look a very good team, this years Burnley?

Lost their best player to Norwich though in Lewis Grabban, who has now scored 3 times in 2 matches. Not sure they have enough quality through the team to go that far.

Complete opposite of the game on Saturday where we were pretty poor but scraped a win.
I was thinking the same as you about the possibility of being this years Burnley and not only because of the Eddie Howe connections. To be honest survival in the Championship is still first and foremost but expectations/ambition for most supporters at the club this year is to squeak into the playoffs.

Certainly played good football last night. Just maintaining that for the season will be tough. But from the little i saw, lots of positives for you guys. Would think there would be no concerns about relegation at all.

The Championship is such an unpredictable division, many people had Burnley down as possible relegation candidates last season. I didn't go last night so can't really comment about your guys but you appear to be in good shape to stay in the top six for the rest of the season and probably end up in the top two.

We finally have some strikers, and when Lansbury, Vaughan and Wilson(if his injuries are ever fixed) are back we should be looking pretty good. Left side looks weak, but getting results with a team still to gel, and a new manager finding his way, its looking good at present. But as you say the championship is so unpredicatble.

Henri Lansbury is a real quality player, I never understood why he is in the Championship. By memory, he had a successful loan spell at Norwich when at Arsenal, and he rejected them on a permanent basis because he considered them (still in the PL at the time) to be below his ambitions.
He would be on the top of my "just been promoted, who can we buy" list if I was Burnley or Leicester.
