Life Without Rodriguez

So, Jay Rodriguez has left Burnley for an undisclosed fee to Southampton. The fee is believed to be in the region of £7 million, which in most peoples opinion, is a good deal for both parties. The question now is, will Burnley be able to cope without the target man. In my opinion, they will. Burnley have a few good strikers for the upcoming championship season. Charlie Austin, last season, he got 15 goals in the league and spent a spell on the sidelines. They also have Danny Ings, signed from Bournemouth for an undisclosed fee in summer 2011, who has goals in him. Also, Burnley have recently just signed Sam Vokes from Wolves for £500,000, a great deal for Burnley. Burnley will be hoping for a solid mid-table finish in the 2012/13 season, with a hope of a play-off push towards the end. There's no doubt, they have goals in them, but do they have the defence to back the goals up?
