Burnley (H) | Post-Match Thread

A few not on form just now and Burnely were not great either but a win and clean sheet is just what we needed.

Sterling. Frustrating, particular after his comments this week.

Just don’t think he’s technically on the same level as a lot of our players and is a bit of a flat track bully.

Mbappe to Real, Sterling to PSG I think is a real possibility. Suits all parties.

Why would any team with CL ambitions want to sign Sterling?

I may be getting greedy but I don’t think we are as good as we were a few seasons back. Lack of pace and presence in midfield and of course almost impossible to replace Silva and Aguero. Think we desperately need Haaland to give our team some star quality and a focal point.

Because whilst we watch him week in, week out and know what he is capable of, because he has great PR and the media fully bought into him the vast majority of football supporters seem to think he is world class.

Dreadful performance, but Burnley were worse.

It was pretty poor, but to be expected after the international break.

Bernie, Laporte, Rodri and Stones were above the rest.

It's hard to say who came out worse, Mahrez or Sterling, both were mediocre.

Kev also got away with another sketchy display, masked a little by a great strike just when we needed it.

I quite like these games where we are not on our game and still manage to walk away with 3 points and a clean sheet.

Ffs, two great away performances against the Dippers and Chavs are soon forgotten. This was a case of managing the team, getting a result and moving on, Pep is a fucking genius.

We left three exceptional performances on the pitch before the international break, a drop off was to be expected but three players had utter stinkers and it dragged us down. Glad we kept a clean sheet and although he’s not as good as Ed with his distribution Zach is a brilliant back up keeper.

Oh and Bernie is on a fucking mission for a move which helps us a lot this season he’ll be a massive loss if he goes.

Bernie won’t go

Very pedestrian in our build up and no quick passing when we needed. Also when we change out our back four( and they are quality) they can’t read each other’s moves like a settled side we are use to. But hey we won 3 pts and we move forward. We will win the league this season no doubt about it.
