Burnley (3rd rd FA Cup) Post Match thread

I don't think so. It was a small group of people having an altercation and a couple of blokes had metal bars, anyway this looked like it could've got serious until a police van, that was in the line of traffic, put on the blue lights and nipped it in the bud, and arrested the bar wielding loons.

Walk up that way to the pub, didnt see any mither, must have just missed it

I would say it was between 17:00 and 17:30 and 50 yards back from the lights across from the campus.

Great to be supported by a few legends of the music world. The rags will always have Mick Hucknall and Olly Murs lol

Typical isn't it ones a **** and ones a cockney.

Great fightback but shocking defending from Stones for Burnley goal.
Also Bravo beaten at his near post yet again a stark reminder that despite being a good penalty stopper his in game keeping is rubbish. He barely saves anything.
We need Gunner back next season for sure.

What was yesterday's crowd?

My take on yesterday was that in the first half Burnley came with to bully us in the first half, which the idiot of a ref allowed. If Ederson plays John doesn't panic and hack the ball to Barnes. This is not a slight on Claudio, but Ederson allows us to play a high defensive line. Thought Claudio played well yesterday and don't feel as nervous when he has the ball at his feet and his passing has improved. The first half felt like last season, we had a lot of the ball, didn't have many shots on target and then they scored. After the goal they reverted to parking the bus, which was to their advantage.
The free kick absolutely changed the game and Dyche is an idiot if he thinks that they are allowed to take all the time in the world to organise his defense, surely the advantage goes to the fouled team. The back heel was sublime from Gundogan and after that Burnley could no longer sit back and defend. Then Sane shredded them, The pass from Kev for the fourth was just brilliant.

Are you really suggesting that if Eddie were in nets, John wouldn't have shanked the ball?

no what I am saying is that Ederson would have been nearer the edge of his box and when John shanked it, Barnes wouldn't have been through on goal.

Eddie would have stopped that?

I will have to look at it again but my memory is telling me that Bravo was backing up to his line as the ball was lumped fwd, which, with the position of the CBs, was prob the right thing to do, but I will revisit

come on it was hit with power and pace, don't think many would have saved it from the position that Bravo was. His error was possibly not coming out and closing Barnes down, but could of been worried about bring him down and getting sent off.
