Burnley - Post Match Thread

[drthingy]

A few players rested as well.

pressure back onto dippers and chavs

BT came across as arses throughout the game.

Ref shocking but that isnt a surprise.

shaky at the back and that nervousness spread through the team however stones should be back

Pep has a big test against chelsea next week but at least theres a bit of pressure off having won today!

BT talking about should Burnley have had a penalty, glossing over the fact that he was offside.

That said, a win is a win is a win.

Burnley are a very organised team at home so to get three points without Gundogan, Merlin, Stones or Kevin in the starting 11 is admirable. Why they weren't there is confusing.

Can somebody explain that short corner routine where Sterling gives it to Sagna, who then proceeds to try and cross it with his left foot?

Otherwise job done, and strange how without KDB and Silva, we arguably created more chances.

NBC broadcast..... "Otamendi should been called for a foul on that last corner. I can't believe he got away with that!"

"Burnley! Burnley! Burnley!" (.....)

Yet to hear anyone in the media even mention the incredibly blatant foul on Yaya before our second goal, they seem to collectively just ignore the fact that their big shit house defender ran past the ball and just knee'd Yaya in the stomach instead. Luckily we managed to get a break of the ball and score because the referee had no intention of giving us anything for it

Pep making his displeasure of the ref very very clear post match interview and rightly so!

Phew - big positive is we won also Sergio upped his work rate, and but for a fantastic save would have bagged another hat trick. Thought Fernando had a tidy game without creating a lot. Bravo played well. Finally Fernandinho's effort for the winner was fantastic. Main negative is we cannot rely on Yaya, Kolarov, Navas and Sagna in the bigger games or going to the next level and Otamendi gives too many cheap free kicks. I'm sure Pep must see this. That group are too ponderous and careless in possession.

Pep needs time to understand the ref's here. Good look with that one!

 

[Ban-jani]

Second best to every ball in the air, defence was a shambles

That's a shame.

West Ham may give you a game tomorrow then.

That Scottish **** in the box just said "Howard Webb told us the penalty should have been given" NO he didn't he said it was offside. The lying little fuck.
