Kyle Walker signs a new deal
“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Kyle Walker commits to Burnley for another 2 years.

Marcus Edwards knocks on the manager’s door
“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Marcus Edwards trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.
In brief
- The terraces Everybody has an opinion about Emmanuel Gigliotti
- The dugout The manager plants his flag on Zeki Amdouni
