Burnley (A) - Fri 11th Aug | Pre-Match Thread

[ali benarbia's studs]

Expected julian to sneak in starting 11. Goal to start. Fancy Silva too.

Kova is the undertaker -:)

Surprised Alvarez got the nod.

Hopefully Stones & Dias nothing serious.

Me too maybe a kick up the behind to Jack the party's over, time to get focused again.

Take a bow, son.

To be a new user, a **** to a pre-takeover mod, and indignantly wrong in reply to the forum founder at the same time is some achievement.

Should go in to the hall of fame/shame.

I assume it's Rico at LB.

maybe starts there but stays in the middle.

 

[TinFoilHat]

Dias and Boulders already in Athens trolling Slabhead on how to behave properly.

 

[RobinHood]

Pep - Don't shake hands with those pricks.

 

[SWPISHOME]

Burnley must have the youngest side in the league. 6 of their starting 11 is under 23 years old.

Oldest player they have on is 27.

Hopefully the lack of experience cost them big time tonight.

Surprised to see Grealish and Kovacic not starting. Gvardiol on the bench is more understandable having only just joined. Big chance for Alvarez.

I assume it will be Walker, Akanji and Ake at the back with Lewis moving up alongside Rodri, Foden left and Bernardo right but many possible permutations in that team.
