Burnley (A) Post Match Thread

16 points clear as we stand. Ok rags could knock it down to 13. Burnley are this year's surprise package, no one takes them lightly. A draw today with all the injuries we have is a pretty good result. If this is a wake up call to press on, then it's a cheap one. All in all we played well and there's more a need for encouragement than criticism. Well done lads, go have a well deserved rest.

The horror tackles in earlier games played a part.
No rotation, our players were tired.
Even felt they were expecting a leg breaker while breaking forward with pace.

Yes agree.
There was one play when Kev was breaking forward and he kept looking behind him expecting to be hacked down.
It definitely affected his performance.

Christ I am deffo not one of the give the kids a chance gang , but to throw him into that game today and expect him to be the game changer is it tad harsh. He is physically slight and inexperienced still a long way to go before writing him off or claiming he’s a world class talent.

My reply above was aimed at the “he’s ready now, don’t need mahrez” etc brigade, if he’s ready, then I’ve wasted 50 years watching football.

Ridiculous isnt it, Fans arses going because we could be only 13 points clear come 5 bells.

Can i ask you in a match where we missed 5 sitters and dominated are you happy with a point?

I'm still numb. Can't fault effort and play, but somethings got to be done about this finishing. It's almost like the players are thinking, we'll make another clear cut chance in a minute so no worries. I can't put my finger on it. I'm totally flummoxed how we didn't win that game but I had a feeing it was coming.

Totally ruined my weekend, could have been 18 points ahead, but Sterling and Walker cost us 2 points. It will be 13 points in two hours

Tried that. Still think it’ll be a long while before this lad is ready.
