Robbie Brady is expected to make his Burnley debut in Saturday's Premier League game at Watford and the purchase of the Republic of Ireland international is a show of the club's intent.
Sitting pretty in the top half of the table after a run of five successive victories at home, Brady's arrival means Sean Dyche has now smashed the club's transfer record three times in the past year: the winger follows bank-busting moves for Steven Defour and Jeff Hendrick last summer. Their top target during the January window seemed to be Brady -- the club did move for Robert Snodgrass but lost out to West Ham -- and getting the deal over the line marked a shift from the disappointment of previous windows.
