Giftonsnoidea

Like a lot of people could see that game was crying out for some quick passing behind Jay and support from an advanced midfield position, we probably would have won if he had at least 30-40 minutes as Everton were on the ropes in first half, big opportunity missed to get out of bottom 3. Bringing Ba...

If we can get that version of Brady out on the pitch every week then I’d be happy for him to go left wing, give McNeil a rest.

Hope his injury wasn’t serious

Giftonsnoidea

Doesn’t smile enough apparently

On my current Football Manager game, the news literally 5 minutes ago was that Dyche is sacked and Sam takes over.

Ha if it continues like this we might need his services and player contacts to get us out of the mire, I wonder what the Americans are thinking

Giftonsnoidea

Might need big Sam at this rate

Vydra had to replace Wood for us to win the game

Worrying thing is the management team just don’t rate him even though he makes things happen and scores!

Hasn’t cottoned on he’s a no.10 yet

Ref is Jon moss lite

We need more craft not blunt instruments

Just hope if wood goes off dyche didn't bring ash on and go like for like as it hasn't worked yet ,need to make a change so has to be vydra

Dyche would rather pull his eyes out than give vydra minutes

Giftonsnoidea

Ref needs glasses

Giftonsnoidea

Get vydra on to link up to jay rod, two up top not working!

I don't know what it is but Dwight needs a rocket up is ass

Looks like he’s got a new gf last 6 matches

Giftonsnoidea

Get vydra on lol

Giftonsnoidea

Would be tempted to put Brady on left second half get some decent crosses in

Giftonsnoidea

It looked an aggressive action var bottled it

Giftonsnoidea

Playing a lot better than usual though , hoping for the same again second half, they’ve done nothing apart from score from that error.

Giftonsnoidea

If he would have stayed on his feet instead of falling over we would be going in one up!

Giftonsnoidea

Last six months of his contract might be something to do with it

Giftonsnoidea

Taylor needs to watch Steven Ward against Chelsea when we won 3-2

Robbie must have read this thread before KO and thought "I'll have some of that"

Has needed a kick up the arse so job done

Let’s hope this is the start of the rebirth! Great finish

Cracking finish, long may it continue!

Giftonsnoidea

It always happens every season, we go through a terrible patch of not looking like we can actually play and then something changes in the set up and we start trying to pass on the floor and we always get better results from it. Not sure why the rugby tactics come out every season as we always do ter...

Spend nothing on the ground
New right back absolute must
Tough tackling cm playmaker
Right winger who can beat a man and cross Glen Little style

Eventually Bob lord and CFS need refurbishment but would agree with everything else

Giftonsnoidea

Let’s hope whoever gets in has a list of targets to improve the team as it looks like we’re a bit short in that area presently.

Hopefully before January !

Giftonsnoidea

Are they going to spend £40-60m on new players as that is the level we need to compete to stand still

Giftonsnoidea

He’s definitely not a central midfielder ( can he use his right foot?) and I would only want him on the left wing and attacking if he is to play. Asking him to run backwards and having Taylor attack down the wing is a waste of his time and talents. If we weren’t desperate for him to play he’d have p...

Giftonsnoidea

When you look at the formation and where the players are positioned against one of the best sides in the league you know it’s going to be a bad day. Went out after the first half makes you angry when you see your team shambolically set up like that. I like Barnes but why is he up front after being d...

4-5-1, people would complaining about being too negative
4-4-2, complaints as too positive
4-3-3, complains as too positive.

Whatever the formation, same complaints.

I’ll have to start beating the 4-5-1 drum again and hope he logs on

4-4-2 with a 20 year old in the two, suicidal

Giftonsnoidea

4-4-2 against city LOL

3-0 no clue what to do

Giftonsnoidea

Naive 3 attackers on in a 4-4-2 and a 20 year old starting his first game

Be lucky to get away with a 5 nil today

Giftonsnoidea

I don’t think that his ability is so huge that we need to change the whole team around to suit him. I think he’d do a better job than Hendrick as a 10 but if it’s never tried there then we’ll never know, we had our best ever league position playing mainly 4-5-1 which seems to have been forgotten ab...

Giftonsnoidea

Said it before in the past but a 4-5-1 with him as no.10 would be a good option, would like to see us mix it up in the cup games as we never take them seriously anyway

Lots.
plenty, it appears, would have us build our attack around him

I’m his uncle but I don’t think it’d be bad if we had a formation that gets him in the no.10 as a plan b, think that would be decent, kicking the ball 50 feet into the air isn’t his strong point tho

Giftonsnoidea

Why would you pick Barnes's worst spell to try and justify Vydra? Barnes 36 in 160 premier league games (a quarter of those games coming on as a sub). Vydra 6 in 61 premier league games with over half of them as sub appearances (West Brom he couldn't force a starting position and at Watford they ei...

Giftonsnoidea

He hasn't really scored or assisted when he has played though has he? That's the problem. He's got into decent positions frequently..... and then....... produced very little. His goals and assists to minutes actually played must be pretty decent, under utilised as he’s not a traditional no.9 or for...

Think it’s a bit odd to suggest playing a striker as a deep lying midfielder...

26 goals in the championship suggests otherwise

Giftonsnoidea

In footballing terms feel sorry for Vydra, been completely underused and when he has played he has scored or assisted. I still think we’re missing a trick not playing him in a deep lying midfielder type playmaker role. Seems he’s never going to get a run of games must be desperate to play regularly ...

Giftonsnoidea

Good half just need another goal, what’s with Lowton falling over all the time, Bardsley must be unfit if he can’t get in.

Giftonsnoidea

Pass and move football pioneered by Jimmy Hogan in the 1930s and adopted by successful teams the world over is the way to go. It's just that we have forgotten this simple method at Burnley, playing instead England style 3 passes sideways and 3 back before lumping the ball upfield I agree, when was ...

Thought it was going to be “worth a cheeky bid”

Would have preferred he stayed and we were crying out for better defensive cover the first five games, I’m intrigued what has actually happened

Giftonsnoidea

I don’t know why the club would turn down £35m given this situation but as usually the case with all this stuff we might not be party to all the detail and it’s easy to make incorrect assumptions about any offers or the situation internally....but on the face of things it’s hard to understand why w...

We’ve suffered our worst start in the club’s history, struggling to create chances, confidence very low, and you suggest we drop our most creative player? Would Aston Villa drop Grealish if they went on a bad run? Dwight hasn’t done anything of note for games now so it’s not too bad a shout really,...

Giftonsnoidea

We are definitely missing him on the right hand side, does a lot of good work usually going unnoticed and pops up with wonder goals and a few assists. That type of player is now circa £20m to replace, not sure our current chairman is up for spending anywhere near that at the moment.
