Burnley (A) Post Match Thread

I thought Gundogan was inches off being absolutely brilliant.

Yup.

I thought he was the biggest part of the problem, poor movement and link-up play, and too selfish at times.

Did you even watch the game? Aguero link up play especially first half was excellent. His first time layoffs were brilliant.

All these saying we played well must been watching a different game. We were terrible. Burnley deserved their point.

We weren’t terrible and We ain’t gonna win every game
Burnley deserved it for their second half performance coupled with our flat 2nd half
We can’t miss the amount of chances we did in this game
6 first team players out
Silva
Jesus
Sane
Mendy
Delph
Stones
300MM worth of talent unavailable FFS
We looked tired and in desperate need of this weeks long rest

Threw 2 points away with poor finishing, at least they didn't kick the shit out of us, perhaps the Atkinson effect.

Need sterling back on the right

Dyche fair in his post match

 

[BlueAnorak]

Gundogan isnt first choice and thats for sure after that performance.

Played very well for 60 minutes but just a combination of poor finishing and good defending by Burnley allowed them to stay in the game and by end our energy levels had gone and you could see them getting something by just continually pumping long balls and crosses into our box. None of our players played badly, many had good games. There was a lot of good link up play but the ruthlessness in front of goal of earlier this season has gone. The obvious turning point was Sterling missing that sitter - showing how he still needs to focus on the basics at times. I thought him and Aguero were wasteful on more than few occasions. Game was memorable only for the Danilo goal and Ederson save from Lennon. Still 16 points clear but without Sane our goal threat is much reduced.

I thought Gundogan was inches off being absolutely brilliant.

Yeah. I thought he was unlucky a number of times. Very little came off for him.

A draw against a top seven team, probably a team more difficult to play against away from home than Arsenal, Spurs and Liverpool with there style of play, we are clearly missing key players and some look knackered, 9 games in a month has taken it's toll.

We missed many chances and got caught ball watching for there goal, but these games happen, 16 points ahead, the boys have a well deserved mini break and back to it next weekend.
