Burnley (A) Post Match Thread

[2infinity&beyond]

Lost count how many chances Sterling misses and how may times he gives the ball away. Deary me.

 

[The Stockport Iniesta]

Very solid again, controlled the game from start to finish, the only downside is the poor finishing and decision making in the opposition box.

I see PIGMOL applied the sliding scale law in tonights match. I'd love them to explain why our refs don't get selected for world cups, maybe FIFA do not like the way they apply the laws of the game. A FIFA ref would have gone to the monitor. I know we invented the game but really, we need to apply the laws of the game as they are in the rest of the world. But the PL need to control the "Product"

 

[Stoned Rose]

We now have something we haven't had since Mancini.

Discipline.

It's almost robotic at times how well drilled the whole side is from a defensive perspective.

I fucking love it.

Yup, pretty much that. Good for the league

 

[Thaksinssoldier]

We look unbreakable.

one more win this week and this league will be ours for sure.

 

[MillisleBlue]

Deffo another potential banana skin successfully dealt with. Good luck to Burnley and get the fuck in you Blues.

We’re winning at a canter because of our defence but that game really should have been 5-0.
we are doing everything right at the moment except for the clinical edge in front of goal.
I can see Liverpool winning easy enough tonight too so I just hope Pep has a master plan to pull them apart at the weekend.

Mahrrrrresh, Rrrrodrrrii, Gunduggon, Zinchenkew

He needs to say the British players names in their regional accents too.

 

[roubaixtuesday]

We are awesome.

Come on you seagulls!

 

[Stoned Rose]

What was his reasoning for it not being a pen

That he's a ****.

 

[TonyM]

I did.
Should’ve been three nil.

Not if Sterling took it

 

[west didsblue]

Good to see both Bernardo and Gundo at their best meaning that having KDB missing is tolerable.

Great movement from both of them for the two assists.

 

[Stoned Rose]

I don’t know about all you, but for me it was a nice smooth glass of Aberlour and a puff on a Cohiba Exquisitos.

We don’t get many as easy as that!

Homophobic.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

How do Burnley get 26%possession or should the question be, how do we get 75%.

25.5 vs 74.5 rounded up?

Manchester City are the first Premier League side since Arsenal in 2002 to win 13 consecutive matches in all competitions

Defence great again but worried about our front 3 notably Jesus and Sterling who both seem to need tap ins to score and offer very little else as a goal threat. How a PL player can miss as many one on ones as Sterling is baffling. Hopefully Kun is back soon

Absolutely spot on.

We are on a fantastic run of form but we must admit that our recent fixtures haven't been the toughest. The amazing thing about this City team is that we are doing it with two very average goalscorers... Jesus and Sterling.The chances they miss will not be crucial, most probably, against weaker teams but I really fear that in the close title or CL games we will be punished. We are now almost accepting that Sterling will not score in a one on one... this is just not good enough. I know he offers a lot to the team but when I look at the likes of Salah or Son they are deadly.

As Sergio may be coming to the end of his career, hopefully not, we need two top strikers and then I think we would be unstoppable. Also a certain guy by the name of Messi would score so many goals with the likes of KDB and Gundo behind him.

 

[west didsblue]

Not if Sterling took it

Gundo would have taken it. Leave it to the Germans.

 

[remember arthur mann]

Easy win. Gets harder now !

Hoping Pep doesn’t over think.....it’s been known

That he's a ****.

it was clear and obvious a foul nailed on pen but did not have a red shirt on
