Not sure about your understanding of English. Most folk would understand what I implied...which was that some of the worlds greatest players would give the ball away at times and hence to say that Odobert isnt a high quality player for that specific reason isnt really very sensible. I hope that's h...

Annoys me when they referee the 'big games' differently and the commentators say stuff like they have to let things go it's that important the game........ no every single game should be refereed to the same standard!!!!!!

Presume Assignon will be one for two yellows

Pele, George Best, Gascoigne and Maradonna were all very capable of giving the ball away.

Only a Burnley fan could put Odobert amongst Pele, George Best, Gazza and Maradona

bumba

Great potential but that's it at the moment, first 10 minutes yesterday he was unplayable but then by half time I'd forgot he was even on the pitch. He needs to be consistent over 90 minutes then game on game before he gets anywhere near £100 million but he has bundles of ability it's up to him how ...

None of them sit on VAR but I'm sure Howard Webb said they bring ex pros in during the week to discuss decisions with referees but that they'd not got many wrong, sounds like bull to me they get loads wrong. It was never a penalty yesterday let alone a second yellow he couldn't wait to give the pena...

We need to use this now in every game. That referee should be seriously looked at for that first half performance, it was a disgrace

bumba

Like i've said all year though (and got pelters for it) anyone can do that, signing young players en masse... it's about having a balance and not trying to fix something that isn't broken. The fact remains that a staggering % of our summer expenditure have arguably weakened the team when they have ...

bumba

It's annoying because for me it's been obvious af all season. The difference in ability is so obvious. The entire team looks completely different. Mental if you can't see it in all honesty. Couldn't agree more and when Muric only cost 3/4 million the profit is right there, the profit if any we make...

bumba

Up there with Barnes as one of my favourite players of recent times just for what he gives, not the best ability wise but gives his all every game

bumba

The thing that's stood out most for me is how everybody said Trafford shot stopping was miles ahead, personally I never saw it and since Murics come back in his has been outstanding

Muric 9
Assignon 6
Vitinho 7
Esteve 8
O Shea 8

Haven't thought it much this season but that was fantastic, 10 v 12 and still fought hard to take a point.
I've been on the fence about VK this season but that's shown me those players are still fighting for him, 8 to go and the belief is growing 3 points Tuesday and we're at it......let's go BFC

Can VAR despite it not being 'clear and obvious' not just recommend the referee reviews it to check he's still happy with his original decision when it's a penalty and a man down?

It is about time that an investigative journalist took a look at the bizarre decisions being made by corrupt Officials in the so-called Premier League. Although no action would be taken when corruption would inevitably be discovered, it would at least give us peace of mind. Mark Halsey spoke about ...

So it took them 4 minutes to decide it wasn’t a clear and obvious error

EVEN if the penalty stands (which it shouldn't have), how the hell is that a second bookable offence?

I don't even think the first was a yellow, it'd be a harsh yellow putting both together let alone a red for two yellows

Doesn't matter about the penalty we'll get a 'sorry' letter and it'll all be forgotten!

They won't be many if any left from his time will they?

bumba

That’s the point. He was getting picked for England whilst not playing at City so there’s no reason that Trafford can’t get picked when not playing at Burnley. With this clown in charge, anything is possible. Whilst Maguire, “Hendo” and Phillips are n the mix I’ve not given up hope of getting a cal...

Picture the scene: Pickford ruptures his spleen screaming at Maguire in the final group game. Ramsdale steps in but is sent off for time-wasting in the 95th minute of the semi-final. The final is 0-0 AET, Trafford saves three penalties and Bumba applies for Scottish citizenship. When was the last g...

He got picked because he was at City, I very much doubt sub at Burnley will sway Southgates decision to include him

If you are picking players not fit can I have Gazza and Hoddle ?

No because there both retired

He’s not fit so won’t be going

Read the first post, 'presuming everyone is fit'.
Not asking who is fit and who isn't I'm asking who everyone would pick if everyone was fit.

But they are still hoping Shaw will be fit so you yourself can't possibly know he won't be fit and won't be going.

I suspect Trafford is pencilled in for that 3rd GK slot

I think he'd have been originally selected in the squad this time if that was the case, there's a possibility he doesn't play another game for Burnley this season too. How could Southgate justify that?

With johnstone now ruled out he’ll likely go to the euros now as 3rd choice

If he doesn't play again this season then Henderson, Butland, Ramsdale will all be ahead of him.
When's Pope due to return?

What would everyone's squad be? 23 players allowed, presuming everybody is fit.

Well, if i can add my two penneth, on planes i'll book a wing seat where possible as small children aren't permitted in those seats.

The posts undermining Trafford on this board as opposed to nurturing him probably in the region of 10 to 1.

Shame VK didn't nurture him isn't it

Ha, you didn't really did you ? Those who have had an agenda since the opening day line up was revealed aren't going to chance tact now and be pleased for him and his confidence. Still at least there is no agenda towards him on here as we are told. Sick of hearing about an agenda, he's been rubbish...

You'd think the first thought of Burnley supporters would be being pleased for Trafford!

Not really because if England are to succeed and win a tournament in 2024 they won't do it with Trafford in goal.
We're all England fans too.

Much better side than they showed?

They’ve lost 14 out of the last 19 games!

And we still struggled to a 2-1 win even though they had 10 men for over 90 minutes!

The Brentford fans were all saying how rubbish we were. I thought they played the game well considering the circumstances.

I know the game is all about opinions, but don't you think Dara was part of the reason Toney was "absolutely dogger"?

O'Shea was poor today.

Sort of expected the silly marks for Muric, but come on, let’s have some balance. He played well, we’ve missed what he brings, but 10’s, “out of this world”, give over!! I know it wasn't a difficult task but he made the 1st and 2nd best save of the season today. Not bad to say Trafford is the 'shot...
