Christian Kalvenes reflected on a "fantastic" spell at Burnley after his contract was terminated by mutual consent earlier this month.[LNB] The 33-year-old joined the Clarets on a free transfer from Dundee United in June 2008 and made 21 appearances in the Championship last season - including in the play-off final win over Sheffield United - to help the club gain promotion.[LNB]However, Kalvenes has started just three matches in the Premier League this campaign, making three further appearances from the bench with his last game in a Burnley shirt coming against Chelsea at the end of January.[LNB]But he has nothing but fond memories as he returns to his home city of Bergen in Norway.[LNB]Kalvenes told the club's official website: "I've had a fantastic time. If I could pick a time over the last 40 years to be at Burnley I think picked the two best years.[LNB]"I would have loved to have played more games this season but looking back at the time since I left Dundee United and coming down here I have experienced more than I could ever have dreamed of. I just have happy memories."
