My mistake - 6 years £68mill net. Then take into consideration the club - Burnley. Kompany fir example brought in "footballers" because he's Vincent Kompany and his connections in the Belgian league. And again, why change a style when it's working and you've not funds to make a big improvement?
Dyche on record has said he and Thelwell work together. He's also said he's there to improve youth - recently rolling off how he feels he's improved/improved the younger lads like Garner, Myko, brought Dobbin in, actually played Chermitti when he looks "ready" etc. So to say he doesn't "want" I don't see the evidence of that.
And just because he wants big hardened players, doesn't mean he wouldn't want them playing football. Jose made a career out of the same mentality. And "on board with the plan" means listening to instructions doesn't it? Danjuma barely played for Spurs too which says more about his ability and attitude than anything.
Fullbacks...again he likes them to defend, but it's not like he won't want them to attack. Look at Myko start of the season. His stats still show for shots and crosses he's up there with the best in the league attack wise. And if you look now..."flying" fullbacks looks to be going out the window for more introverted fullbacks that end up in midfield.
The whole point really is...until he's had funds to actually make improvements, you can't say he'll never change
