Masterstroke move, turning point - or desperation?

[BBC] [Getty Images] Burnley made a surprise move for 39-year-old striker Jamie Vardy on a deal until the end of the season. The former Leicester City and England forward was a free agent after leaving Italian side Cremonese at the end of last season. But, what do Burnley fans make of the signing and can Vardy help fire them to an immediate return to the Premier League? We asked for Clarets supporters to give us their views and here is a selection of what they have had to say: Tom: I think it's a good bit of business. He is a known finisher and can help us get some goals. Better than what we already have and he can also help be a leader and adds valuable experience to the side. Steve: We don't currently have a single striker at the club who knows how to score a goal, so an ancient Vardy can only be an improvement. Philip: He loved scoring at Turf Moor for Leicester so hopefully he can get our season up and running. Everything feels a bit late at Burnley thus far but Jamie Vardy could be a turning point. Good signing for both parties. Bob: What a ridiculous thing to do! Not taking anything away from his past achievements but that was then and this is now. We've already got Kyle Walker, do we need another one at the end of their career? Alex: Yes he's getting on, but his experience and goalscorer's instinct will be a great asset. John: In the situation we are now in, I am happy we have signed Vardy. He may score some goals but we should never have got ourselves into this mess. If we knew we were letting Zian Flemming go, we should have signed a new striker weeks ago. Derek: Strikes of desperation! Jamie Vardy and Ashley Barnes up front would be a great combo 10 years ago. I fear we will be following Leicester this season! Martin: This might be a masterstroke. Yes, he's getting on now, but used wisely could prove to be the goalscorer we need.
