Muric could start over Trafford, I would prefer the latter as he doesn't like east Lancs.

Yes strange how we seem to get the newly promoted boys always away first few games of the season when they have fully fit first 11s and are raring to go. Not like playing them in Jan when they're best players are suspended or injured or rested because its a big six pointer against Bournemouth 3 days later.
Ah well let's start off solid, I'll take a 0 - 2 for City and they'll be happy not getting twatted 1st game.

If our first away game was at Chelsea and Liverpool got Burnley away, everyone would be moaning we got a though away fixture and how Liverpool got the easy start at the newly promoted team.
 
Hopefully they'll be full of confidence and have a go at us, we'll batter them if they do
 
Going to Burnley always makes me think of when Mike Summerbee played for them, legend has it he was sent up on the moors for a training run, got lost in the mist and ended up in a pub in Yorkshire.

Must be an eye-opener going there for the first time for the lads from more exotic places, up & down those bleak hills then dropping down into the valley. Bit like the travelers in "Lost Horizon." Or maybe not.

I was surprised when Pep brought him on, I'd nipped to the kitchen to crack another beer, and when I got back I thought they'd brought on Chuck Norris for a guest appearance, considering how overweight he was and the public slaughtering Phillips got last season for the same reason, must make Phillips wonder what he's got to do.

If kev was overweight he wouldnt have played, pep is a stickler on that and kev is not fat !
 
There isn’t a single burnley player who would get anywhere near our starting eleven, but they are at least four weeks in front of us fitness wise, that is their only hope, the fact vinny “plays” football could play right into our hands, we SHOULD win & im expecting us to
