Going off yesterday's presser VK isn't going to drop the young players going through the bad patches as he thinks it will teach them hard lessons and help them in the future. The BXP article specifically mentioned Trafford, Amdouni and Odobert. I understand his point, but you also have to make it cl...

The people who say our fans have no patience should read this thread.

The consensus is to keep VK.

I know I wouldn't bother if he went personally, but people have bought into the project and are showing remarkable patience and empathy. Hoping that the bigger picture is a positive one.

burnleymik

Admit it, most of us are going to renew, even if we get hammered 5-0 every game for the remaining 12. No matter how frustrating we take the highs as well as the lows. That's football. Don't get me wrong, we might not be massively enthusiastic at times, but ultimately we will be there for the club no...

burnleymik

Weird that anyone would find the team selection more important than the performance or result. Surely the important thing is fielding a team that will compete and get results. If we started with Muric and Benson for example and then put in our worst performance of the season and got our heaviest de...

burnleymik

Team sheet.

He has to be prepared to change what isn't and hasn't worked all season. If he still shows no willingness to adapt then what little faith in him I have left will disappear.

burnleymik

Let's be honest, I will be amazed if the team for Sunday isn't exactly the same, apart from Cullen for Brownhill, the forced change, as long as there have been no fresh injuries.

burnleymik

Claretspice absolutely nails it. 💯 Stick with him but he has to start learning and rotating players that aren't delivering. Absolutely, but how many times have we already said that this season? Look how many times he tried everyone but Charlie Taylor at Left Back? He hasn't seemed to learn from any...

My main concern is that they aren't fighting for him.

They must realise the pressure he is under, but the majority are not showing any signs of wanting to save him.

burnleymik

I was told months ago that VK had money tied up in the Trafford deal … City have a buy back clause of triple what they paid for him, meaning VK would make a profit of 300% on the deal .. That’s why he doesn’t get dropped and keeps defending him ! Of course people will try to say I’m wrong & he can’...

burnleymik

"no debate"

burnleymik

I could get behind him if we were losing but there were positive signs, but incredibly despite how awful we have been this season, we have actually managed to get even worse. He won't change the glaringly obvious problem and just can't adapt. I can't see the benefits of keeping him. The players have...

burnleymik

He has lost the dressing room, there is no way those players are fighting for him.

Thanks for last season VK, but the incredible way we have actually gotten worse and your refusal to adapt and change has turned us upside down.

burnleymik

3 subs now on 89 mins. .. That's the VK way

burnleymik

Oh FFS.

Talking about kicking someone when they are down.

burnleymik

Please don't VAR, just allow us one single semblance of a smile today!

burnleymik

What a run by Vitty.

burnleymik

Whey! Hahaha

burnleymik

It's soul destroying.

burnleymik

Just let VK go. We can't keep going like this.

burnleymik

And the collapse is on

burnleymik

burnleymik

That has to be a second yellow.

burnleymik

Just how has it all gone this wrong? We have actually managed to do the impossible and get even worse. The last bits of faith I had in VK disappeared when I saw the line up and sadly they have confirmed my fears. We are not even close and it's only due to Palace being poor in front of goal that we a...

burnleymik

No shots on or off target and that was with 11 men....

Was that a red? Looked harsh from the stands

Yep, think ref and VAR got it right, Brownhill didn't really have much choice but to try and stop him.

burnleymik

We haven't even nearly been competitive with 11 men. This is going to be tough.

burnleymik

What an absolute mess.

burnleymik

Trafford did well there, but two unmarked players at the back is just ridiculous.

burnleymik

How does he have that much space and time at the back post?

burnleymik

Berge dropping into CB again. What a waste.

burnleymik

Did Amdouni go to the Rashford school of pressing?

burnleymik

Still struggling with the most basic of passing.

burnleymik

Blooming heck...

burnleymik

Really hoped he would change things up today, especially after last week, but it's so predictable. Love JBG, but he just sin't effective wide anymore, not through any fault of his own. Amdouni starting, after being hooked at HT last week and given his recent displays is bonkers. Poor Trafford still ...

Taylor back in. JBG for Ramsey it looks like.

Brownhill, Amdouni and Trafford remain.

At this level?

Honestly, I don't know, but it would hurt to try and also to take the pressure off Trafford, of that's what you meant.

Let's not forget Muric was Championship Keeper of the season.

burnleymik

Muric why? What difference will he make? He may turn out not to be any better, but I would suggest Muric plays more the sweeper role and would be better at taking the pressure of the back four in that role and better ability to pass a ball. At this point it wouldn't do Trafford any harm to take him...

burnleymik

It doesn't matter who you have in the starting line up if it's your day, it's your day. Remember going to Leeds when we had terrible injuries and playing loads of fullbacks in midfield? We won 2-1. Maybe the odd anomaly in results, but on the whole, the starting line up matters immensely. I just ho...

burnleymik

I'll reserve judgement until I see the starting line-up...

burnleymik

Muric might make a comeback in the EFL Would you want to play for the manager that dropped you in a heartbeat once we made it to the Prem? Even when you improved throughout the season and got Championship Keeper of the Season! What more can you do? I doubt I would give my all in that situation. I w...

The foe feature works well to Mitigate this as well… just add them, and unless they’re quoted you won’t see the posts. Absolutely this. Just click their name and on their profile add as foe. There are a few that end up bickering in every thread and we know who they are, but it's tedious rather than...

burnleymik

We play players in their best positions.
Players still believe in VK
We learn a lot of valuables lessons from this season.

burnleymik

I’m not an over-emotional supporter like many, I appreciate there and highs and lows in football, more so when I chose to support Burnley. This allows me to see through the poor season it’s been, not get over-emotional and reactionary cause we are losing and have a sense of perspective on where we ...

burnleymik

Don't even think Harry Potter could save us now. Biggest concern is how many of this squad would remain and of those that do, how many would still have the desire to play for VK? Would VK still have the pulling power he had previously after this season? I don't think it could get much worse, perform...

When I called him a coward - it was in relation to him closing his eyes when he comes to flap for a cross at corners or is bullied in his own six yard box.

Apologies, I missed the context there.

burnleymik

I labelled Trafford a coward a couple of weeks ago and was shot down by the usual crowd. Seems more and more people are finally waking up to what i’ve been telling them for months. Trafford isn't a coward, in fact I would suggest exactly the opposite. The poor lad is being picked to play every week...
