Burnley (A) - Pre-Match Thread

[Len Rum]

Here come 20 pages of why isn't Foden starting.

Saving him for the Port Vale game mate.

 

[BlueNirvana]

Reckon there will be decent streams for this?
Or are Amazon pretty shit hot at blocking?

there should be streams form america

 

[Gaylord du Bois]

Ederson, Walker, Otamendi, Fernandinho, Angelino, Rodrigo, Silva (C), De Bruyne, Bernardo, Sterling, Jesus Subs | Bravo, Stones, Mendy, Mahrez, Cancelo, Foden, E Garcia

You're slacking, girlfriend.

He will,as i said it was always the plan he would be a cb this season,idinho has said he is not finished playing yet,i would get th right hump if we lose him so he can play dm somewhere else

you think Pep is going to play Dihno over a fit Laporte? In maybe some sort of dead rubber match but why else would he?

 

[kaz7]

Good game for nico,he is good in a battle,not a game for phil

COME ON BLUEBOYS

 

[jimharri]

I surely thought he'd play Foden tonight. Dave hasn't got the legs to play every game any more.

If Sterling gets booked in this he misses the derby.

 

[pudge]

Danny drinkwater and Jeff hendrick. Surely they aren’t beating us....

Drinkwater screamer from 30 yards and Jeff Hendrick pulling strings like Xavi

 

[mosssideblue]

Glad you are. The biggest up and under merchants in the league and we leave out Stones, our only aerially competent centre half, and pick Otamendi (5ft 11’) and Ferna (5ft 9’) instead. I hope to Christ we don’t concede any corners or free kicks. Madness

I would say Ota is no slouch aerially and, especially compared to Stones

 

[kaz7]

You're slacking, girlfriend.

I posted it pages ago,set your clock by me

 

[brummie blue]

20 minutes into the coverage and the following noted:

The studio picture is ok, any coverage of action (replys) has a flicker problem.

The anti City rhetoric is alive and well at amazon, a dig about us not coping with Liverpool, no clean sheets for ages, Shearer might as well have a red shirt on,

8.15pm is a stupid kick off time

and Turf Moor is a shit hole and shouldn't be a venue for premier league football.

 

[carolinefrances]

Sorry if it's been asked before but what did Pep say about Burnley on that Amazon Prime series?

 

[Tugay One Cup]

Ah shit, didn't spot Otamendi in there.

 

[simon23]

Ottomendi? Really?

Is he better than Stones in the air?

Other than that decent team

Mendy deserved dropping after that performance at weekend as did Mahrez

 

[cjn]

If Sterling gets booked in this he misses the derby.

Oh, great. I didn't realize that. The accumulation rule is stupid by the way.

 

[SWPISHOME]

Really surprised they haven't started Ashley Barnes tonight. They'll probably get out of their own half twice and score two goals.
Hopefully 3 points tonight and a good performance to lift the spirits.
Come on City.

 

[razman]

Decent team....hope sterling doesnt pick a yellow

 

[Deleted member 77198]

Otamendi and Fernandinho worry me height wise against this lot who just pump balls up to two big men. I’d have played Stones with Rodri at the back and put Fern in midfield.

 

[Deleted member 81382]

Ah shit, didn't spot Otamendi in there.

Probably more suited to this type of game than Stones to be fair.

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

I would say Ota is no slouch aerially and, especially compared to Stones

I would pick Stones over Otamendi in every aspect of defending
