At least after today we know now that when Rodriguez needs a rest, we can play Tella up front and he'll look very tidy.

Barnes mustn't play for us again.

Dervisoglu was obviously a last minute "just recruit a body" type signing, and VK doesn't seem to want to play him.

ksrclaret

Clearly resting some with a punishing schedule ahead.

I hope today has taught VK though that Barnes must never play for us again. Might as well have had 10 men on in that first half. Woeful player.

ksrclaret

I’m always willing to give our players a real chance, but I’ve finally snapped today.

Muric is bloody shite at goalkeeping.

ksrclaret

Dreadful half.

Ring the changes.

I think it's fair to say that we are by far the weakest team in the division when it comes to defining any sort of cross into the box.

Why is it fair to say that, please?

Have you conducted a detailed analysis of all of the other teams, or are you just being Spijed again?

ksrclaret

It's absolutely impossible to say either way, and anyone suggesting they know what would have had happened with Dyche still in charge can safely be ignored as an idiot with an agenda.

In his two seasons with us at Championship level, were we ever 6-8 points clear at any stage?

ksrclaret

I'd definitely want Harwood-Bellis and Beyer to stay with us if we went up. Maatsen I'm less sure of, and Tella the same although he might just have found himself a home here.

Newcastleclaret strikes again

ksrclaret

Just seen this thread and was looking forward to reading everyone's thoughts on it, but sadly Newcastleclaret is up to old tricks again and has ruined much of the first and second page. Personally, I'm a huge fan of VK so far and all that he's about. The team is playing well, it's getting results, t...

Just seen the Premier League table and wow, Liverpool are way off it this season.

Can't understand what's happened to them.

ksrclaret

Peacock-Farrell 6 - absolutely nothing to do. Tidy enough with the ball at his feet. Vitinho 7 - good game. Very comfortable and composed with the ball, and used his pace to good effect when defending. Gyokeres got away from too easily in the last few seconds though that might have cost us on anothe...

ksrclaret

For the volume of possession we have, we don't work the defence enough. We pass it around safely and in front of the opposition. We settle for a safe, slow tempo and don't have the urgency to create. We're also poor defensively considering we only have to actually defend for 20% of a game. That need...

ksrclaret

For the record I did actually. You must have missed it. We are one of the top scorers in the league, scoring goals is not our problem. Keeping clean sheets is our biggest problem. I don’t really know how anyone can debate that No you're right, you don't know how to debate. If we scored 5 they'd sim...

ksrclaret

It’s just simply not. We score two, they will just score two. Defence getting sorted and started to keep clean sheets is critical Hello again Newcastle. I wondered what had happened to you as you didn’t post when when we were winning? If we’d scored two tonight would stoke have simply scored two as...

ksrclaret

We must get Beyer and Taylor into the same defence.

We’re not good enough defensively at the moment and it needs sorting. I want to see VK learn from this back to back disappointment and play his best defenders.

ksrclaret

Shocking goal to concede.

Not good enough defensively and we only have to do it for 20% of a game.

ksrclaret

There’s no hyperbole we are half way through a game. I’m not even talking about the result. I’m talking about the style and how I find it boring. Bottom line is pal if we happened to be winning this game you'd not be saying a word of this. But because we happen to be drawing it, it's "absolutely sh...

Come on RV stop being pathetic A messageboard is about opinions. Posters like you are the reason I have avoided it. Because it has become pointless.

ksrclaret

Oh great, Newcastleclaret is back throwing a tantrum because we’re not winning with his childish hyperbole again.

“This is the worst Burnley side I’ve ever watched” might get an airing soon

ksrclaret

Forest looking like exactly what they are - a bunch of strangers put together where the system is secondary to the individual.

Not sure it’s a job for Dyche but if he’s offered it he ought to take it.

Classic knee jerk reflex reaction, this thread. Not judging, I've posted silly things in haste after a game many a time over the years, but the overall picture shows us in 4th, having lost only once so far, and playing well more often than not. I think that makes us good enough to go up, considering...

Didn't expect that after the second went in.

It's amazing what can happen when you attack a little bit.

What a finish from Havertz

My God England really are shite. Really, really shite.

ksrclaret

What a penalty from Gundogan. Calm and composed. World class.

As for Maguire. What do you say to an international level defender who does that.

ksrclaret

Tuning in to the first England match I've watched since the Euro Final.

What on earth has happened to England? They're sterile.

Great ball from Luke Shaw a few minutes ago for Sterling, though.

Daft excuse for a football club

Feel sorry for genuine Watford fans

ksrclaret

The one thing I've never liked about him is his contempt for "normal people". I'm not sure if he means it or even knows it, but I just get such arrogant vibes from him in these interviews.

When he's talking about the specifics of football and leadership though, it's usually a good listen.

ksrclaret

Just watching them on MOTD now.

It's a job for Dyche if ever I've seen one. Soz to the posters who don't like him being mentioned.

ksrclaret

Brilliant today. He's outstanding in defending 1v1 situations (and this will be music to the ears of the big clubs and the national team), and his distribution is the very best I've seen from a Burnley defender. Yes, he needs to improve on his physicality against the biggest Championship forwards, b...

Good news. Common sense prevails. Here's to another 3 points at Deepdale.

I didn’t label it as such, but it was (and still is) a tag that we received under Dyche. I didn’t say it was right or agree with it, merely stated it was a tag which has followed us around on social media and when asked, the reasons why it came about. Not sure which part of that is disrespectful! W...

All of the above I don’t disagree with so why this comment about me? Well it was jokey comment, hence the smileys, but I included you because of all the Brexit Burnley stuff. That was terribly disrespectful as well. Coming from opposition fans on Twitter I can understand, but I wouldn't expect to s...

Yes school holidays were different back, going back earlier after the summer break and then having a September half term. I was away at the time because of the half term. Very dark times.

ksrclaret

Pretty sure you spent most of the past two seasons slagging off Dyche’s football wherever possible - what’s with the high horse now? Slagging off. Interesting turn of phrase and rather typical of the discourse on here. There's absolutely no room for a middle ground. Of course, I was posting my opin...

ksrclaret

Wow some strong feelings there. Yes we were perhaps efficient but let’s not pretend we played good football under Dyche because we didn’t. We were a long ball side. We defended narrowly and packed the box and launched the ball forward at all costs waiting for a second phase ball. The Vings partners...

Can't believe how many people are posting on here at a time of national mourning. I don't recognise this nation anymore, it's gone to the dogs. So disrespectful.

Not quite.

He's assisting the actual interim manager, Andrew Crofts.

A bit like Ben Mee did with Michael Jackson, I'd imagine.

No. i have tried very hard to show the anomaly between stopping sport ahead of other social weekend activities. But you don't want to see or accept it.

They haven’t cancelled all leisure activities. And it’s precisely because football teams mean more to people, representing a town and a people, that it’s important they’re seen to be doing the right thing. The "right thing" isn't tangible. It's subjective. That's why some people will agree and some...

Don’t mourn if you don’t want to, but don’t whinge about a football match being postponed either. You may look at it as just a football match, but as I said earlier, football is a far more important part of life to people than the Queen was.

It’s a football match, grow up!

For some people, football is a far more meaningful and important part of life than the Queen and Royal Family.

It's actually okay not to want to mourn someone you've no personal connections to, just as it's okay for people to do so.

ksrclaret

Emotions are clearly running high on here tonight, for understandable reasons, but it's fine not to agree with decision. The Queen presided over a free society and democracy, after all.

It is unbelievable, you're quite right.

If people want to stay at home for weeks sighing and moping (after work, obvs), that's up to them. It ought to be a choice though, I agree with you.
