You’re pleased we are being relegated with a whimper. Hmm
Not at all pleased with how the seasons gone. It’s been a steep learning curve (too steep) for the squad and manager. Both will be far more ready for a 2nd attempt.
Like Dyche was after his first failed attempt and he didn’t do too bad.

Difficult to judge them three so far given such limited game time. (Loans I can see but can’t see how that benefits the club). They’ll be 3 or 4 that may go off for a 12 month hiatus next season. Benefits are obvious. We retain the players services for future, they develop and play games probably c...

I’ve got to agree tbh my patience has completely gone with him, he needs to go but Pace can’t afford to pot his pin up. A stupid long contact and we’re back in the Dyche situation again! We only pay out his long contract until he would work again, which wouldn’t be long, so yes we can afford to sac...

Certainly a buzzword, but I haven't seen anyone explain why they feel that way, what has changed to make them feel that way, or when this change took place.
Fear of change would account for a lot.

My guess would be
BPF, Roberts, Weghorst, Twine, Egan-Riley, Churlinov, Bastien - aren't likely be back at Burnley
Mcnally, Costellor and Obafemi - won't be back if can be sold for a profit
Zaroury, Mellon and Dodgson - likely to return

It’d be more weird if a player wasn’t fed up with a lack of minutes.
Has Benson ever completed a full match for us?
He’ll get his chances before the end of the season, hopefully he takes them.

To be injured for so long he has to have 1 of 2 thing's, either a serious ligament injury /tear, or a leg break. What else could keep him out for so long ? No doubt some will say "a recurrence" well I'm not buying that. If report's are true he's staying, then there's absolutely no logical reason he...

What, exactly, does he offer? How does he offer more than Roberts? Is it how weak he is defensively? How he cowers away from diagonal balls and ducks out of the way? Is it how he fails to keep the ball well and often looks like he can’t play simple passes? Is it for all the chances he creates in th...

I agree. I’d also like to see a proper right full back playing on the other side - call me old fashioned but preferably one who is up to it at this level. If vk wanted a ‘proper rb’ Roberts would be starting each game from what we have, an improving Vitinhio offers more of the other aspects vk want...

Delcroix, Al Dakhil, Roberts and Vitinho have all played left back. Wouldn’t shock me if he tried Esteve there either. Not all great options (just like right back) but they are options. If Taylor is fit, he is hands down our best full back. Call me old fashioned but I’d think we need a left back at...

Its unbelievable. It's such a glaring weakness in the side, you can't have such a substandard player in this league and get away with it. If we had a good right back i think we could fairly argue that we had a genuine premier league standard first 11. Its incredibly frustrating. I’d say left back i...

When he was being sold it was all Benson kopps out of training and isn't good enough stuff. Now he's staying it's the "right thing" to do.

Why do we need a left back? In Charlie Taylor we have a good quality Prem quality solid defender. Whilst his attacking abilities might not be that good our major problem has been defending and he is far better than most in our defence at doing exactly that. The problem that the club and VK in parti...

some of you need to see it again. 100% a foul, he takes a look to see where Trafford is and then blocks him. It's as clear a foul as you will ever see.
And then looks straight to ref to see if he’s got away with it. Truly awful again by the ref and var.

Ekdal has struggled with fitness since we got him. With Beyer also out we need someone else.
Good to see us looking at tall players too.
Arrived with and then played with an injury his first spell of games. Could be some player when (and if) 100% fit.

Can’t understand us signing another cb unless Ekdal or al-dakhil are leaving
6 foot 5 beast of a player and maybe Ekdals (and beyers?) injury worries mean he can’t be counted on this season. I’d love aad to get games on loan at a good level, think it’ll do him good.
