Excellent. Best we’ve been since the Spurs game.
Shame it’s only 1-0 ...

 

[Paul1970]

We can't finish teams off
Why?

Because we don’t have anyone prolific to finish

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

He’s not afraid to turn and move the play forwards. Gundo would knock it back every single time.

It’s his power at shielding the ball which is so effective, getting back to fitness and surprise surprise, we look assured again in the middle!

Does the ń in Angelińo make it angelenio?

ñ

It changes the n to a ny rather than adding an i after it.

 

[jimharri]

Just sell gundo in january. So glaringly obvious were a better team without him

And who'll buy him?

 

[Bluemoonie92]

Much better tonight, winning the ball back further up the pitch. Need that second though!

 

[deano ou812]

We are looking more like we should do in games in that first half,bar the spurned chances,which always leave you feeling slightly uneasy unless you get another early doors ..

 

[bluemoon32]

So, i can't watch the game but by reading the posts it seems that :
Rodri playing well.
Jesus took his goal well.
Sterling and BS not really at it.
Not taking our chances.
Burnley are knackered and.....
Even though he's not playing Gundo is fcuking shit.
Is that about it?

 

[SWP's back]

Apart from the commentary, the prime coverage is decent quality.

If it makes you feel better. The commentary has nothing to do with Amazon. It’s the English language PL syndicated commentary that I’m stuck with every game.

 

[SiMCFC]

Pep must see now that Gundogan as good as he is technically slows us down too much, Rodri thriving having the room to run the game from the middle

 

[worsleyweb]

And who'll buy him?

Leeds

 

[Semper aggressus]

Ok so far but their keeper is annoying me. Can't believe he got his shin behind that Bernardo shot. Need those kind of shots to go in!

 

[kippaxwarrior]

We look so much better with an actual defensive midfielder at the base of the team

 

[northwichblue]

1-1 anyone

 

[jollylescott]

Playing with a confidence and assuredness not seen for a while. That’s a great relief.

We could easily have been 2 or 3 up, if not for Pope. Having said that, it’s nice to see Jesus beat up the Pope!

 

[Barcon]

Good first half and a brilliant goal by gabby.

Jesus was offside once or twice

 

[journolud]

Much more like it but Bernardo should have scored. Still only one fuck up or fluke away from being back to square one

 

[Heisenberg's Blue Sky]

Can someone with maybe a keener eye for football than me please, please assure me that we have a few more gears we can move through and we are purposely keeping our powder dry. Weve done well but still something lacking. The six fingered yonners should be 2 or 3 down by now. Just worried that this is our max. after last seasons monumental effort. Best we've played in a while but just doesnt feel anywhere near (injuries aside but still...)

 

[brummie blue]

much improved performance, like the front three switching around, Rodri looks good, dropping between Oti and Ferni when the fullbacks bomb forward. Still need to improve our chances to goals conversion rate.
