Burnley's brilliant Shrek-inspired transfer video has fans calling it 'best ever'

Forget Jim White and his yellow tie, forget 11th-hour helicopter flights on Deadline Day, forget Alan Irwin taking a dildo to the face Burnley's player announcement videos are the best thing going about the transfer window right now!

Over the last couple of seasons the Clarets have produced belter after belter whenever they sign a new star, and they've outdone themselves yet again after announcing the capture of South African forward Lyle Foster, this time with a Shrek-inspired masterpiece.

The clip they've parodied is from the first movie, where the evil Lord Farquaad asks the Magic Mirror to recommend three princesses for him to marry.
