Honestly, some people seem to want opponents to roll over against City and not fight and scrap. Not a thing wrong with how Burnley played today.

LolPep at half time:" They have been chasing shadows for 45 minutes. Give them another 15 mins of that, then TAKE THEM OUT"
Kun:" If I get two, will you leave me on for a hat trick?"
Pep "Er....no"
Kun: " I hate you"
Pep " That's my boy"

Absolutely. I’d be happy to win by three every time we play them. 2 and counting this season.Burnley fans will be pretty entertained this season.

So, you class football as hoof it up to one of the big lads up front, get 11 behind the ball, and score less than 1 goal per game. Got it!not every manager can spend hundreds of millions on attacking players ffs
It isn't anti football and for club like Burnley to be 7th in the prem (while beating chelsea and drawking against spurs, united and liverpool) is a brilliant achievement. Getting like red cafe on here at times.
You sound like you should be spending more time at Old Trafford if you think THAT is football in 2018.

Burnley played very well i thought and are organised for sure defensively but they can most definitely play when they want.

Lot of Jocks born in Scotland with Irish heritage actually class themselves as Irish.
They can class themselves as they like but they are still Scottish.

I don’t ‘want’ them to do any thing.What do you want Burnley to do? go all attack and lose 7-0?
As I said, I’m happy beating them by three every game.
Wouldn’t enjoy it as a Burnley fan though.

Would be nice.
His Dad was Irish born and bred his Mum was Scottish , I don't see why he shouldn't think of himself as either or both. Not even sure that Scotland were interested in playing him before Ireland jumped in.They can class themselves as they like but they are still Scottish.

They have played like that in most games I have seen them play. That's why they score so few and concede so few. Nothing wrong with that but it's hardly entertaining.

I’m sure he would have no problem if we put one of our men two inches from the ball to stop a quick free kick for them...Sean D moaning in the tunnel about the swift free kick that led to the equalizer.

He should concentrate on the positive that his side played well today but in the end got dicked by a far superior side playing far superior football.
Nothing to see regards this so called illegal free kick, nothing.

I know what you are saying but I think it is a tad unfair...teams have to play to their strengths, ours is attacking with pace and murdering teams, their strengths are more defensively inclined, soak up some pressure and try and hit on the break....their better players are in that part of the team. Perhaps, if they tried to have a go week in week out they wouldn't be sitting in the top half of the league? They're not under any obligation to entertain the fans of other clubs but instead, have to look after their own interests first.
