Burnley Vs City Post Match Thread

He played well, but I think you're stretching things just a bit there.

As for Trippier, yeah played well, not sure he's the standard we want though.

This really irritates the bejesus out of me. "Not the standard we want"? Who are we? The Harlem globe trotters? The only standard we need as far as I can see is passion and desire,energy, guts, and bollocks. With a touch of honesty and commitment. I'd say Trippier out weighs most of our lot. By a large distance. But hey ho let's keep looking for these miracle players with the standard we want. Deary me.

We're the Champions of England who expect to challenge for the league and CHampions League every year.

Trippier is a good player and will carve a Premier League career out for himself. But he isn't good enough to play for us. Our backup right back has 50 caps for France and about 300 games in the Premier League where he played for a team challenging for both the highest honours at home and in Europe, getting into the Premier League Team of the Year twice. And he can't get into our team.

OMFG MATE! So what????!! He USED TO be good at Arsenal but he plays shitty for us! IT'S NOT FIFA 15! You play good>you're good enough to play for us, you always play bad>you don't play for us anymore... It's simple!!!

Probably the players, for some reason, don't want him and that is why some (most) of them play so bad and don't want to play at all. It's a bad and sneaky thing and stuf but it just may happen. If we hire another manager and the same shit continues - then yes, we should disperse all those lazy millionares and mix those who we let stay, the likes of Trippier, the likes of Lopes, obviously (right from our academy) and some newly bought stars

We should have done that last time, thought we had enough od player power when we binned Ron Saunders

It's another level now

i don't care what excuses anybody would like to come up with but we were plain and simply dogshit tonight and to be fair have been for a few months now............

Correct City have been DOG SHIT nearly all of 2015 .
And its not good enough .

We were dire but more composure from Aguero and Silva and a blind ref giving instead of not giving a nailed on penalty and we could have at least got a point.

The performance was a worry and we need to ditch this 4-4-2 bollocks that wastes our talents and nullifies our best players.One up front Silva central and a midfield of Ferd, Nasri, Toure, Millner/ Navas.Do that and we might just cement a top four spot because believe we that isn't a given anymore!

Today we stunk the place down with our arrogant approach looking down on Burnley. I think we could all see what was coming as the game wore on but unfortunately Pellers probably told the players at half time "keep going lads, more of the same, you'll get the goal. "

You know what, who gives two fucks??
Seriously, who gives a rusty fuck?
It's only football, kids are dying, countries are at war and the ozone layer is dissolving before our very eyes..... I bet nobody gets out there pram over that do they??
Well done burnley, we'll done Bury, we'll done West brom, blah de fucking blah de blah blah blah....let's all have a wank coz they won...
We lost. Oh stop the fucking world.. Oh woe is me.... Sack the tea lady and the groundsman... And whilst we're at it the programme sellery can fuckin do one...
And you know what, tonight was great for football as I used to know it, Burnley used to be us before sheikh mansour stuck his fuckin oar in, lesser team beats richer team.... We did that every now and again and it felt fantastic.....
Now..... Shit mate...... It's hollow....
I could fall in love with burnley, they got a real man in dyche, they don't have any fannies on shit loads of money, the burnley 11 had balls of steel, passion in their bellies and a never say die attitude..
Us? Well we've already won the league for this geezer..... Fuck him.

I couldn't tell you who was our best player or our worst player today because to a man the team were all poor.

We've had ten days or so to prepare for this game but from the kick off it looked like they'd met in the car park, got their boots out and asked 'who are we playing this week boss?' We often complain that we don't have a plan B but today we didn't even have a plan A.

What are we doing all week in training? I can guarantee it's not practicing corners and free kicks, pressing the ball or playing with any kind of tempo.

Bottom line is if we continue with our 2015 form we wont make top 4 and after today I cant find a single reason to argue that things are going to change.

I lost the network feed for 20 minutes at the start of the second half which angered me more than the crap that we were serving up.
At the rate we are going the game against the rags could be the decider of who finishes fourth. (I might amend that after the rags game with the spuds tomorrow - but that is how disappointed I am with this season's performances).

He has had an excellent season with burnley this year. Stands to reason he would of had an excellent season with us as well,given the chance. Most probably have developed his game a little further aswell. This standard shit is just that. I take it you believe fernando is our standard or as you argue sanga? God help us.

I'm not really sure that the answer to our problems is to sack the manager, sell our players and buy Burnley's right back.

Cause it's not. The answer is to have good motivated players... Only then we will succeed in UCL... Those players don't give a f. And pellegrini doesn't give a f*** if the players give a f. Neither he motivates them, nor rotates in the right way or uses another players, the good motivated lads from EDS for example...

We obviously hired a wrong guy. manuel is only good for the clubs like Malaga or Villareal. If the players are still not motivated like it is now, after the appointment of the new manager, then there's obviously something wrong with them... And if we can put Lopes, Trippier or Matuidi into our starting XI and they will play better, then why f***in not?
