Steddyman

I watched all 4 episodes last night on ITV-X, but I won't spoil it.

A really good series. Shocking what the post office did.

Steddyman

Off to Hull

Steddyman

Would he really be a loss? He is always injured. Most we would get out of him is 3 games a season.

Steddyman

Vitinho has been shite today.

It was utterly cringeworthy and amateurish.

Same borefests who killed goal music. Some people are no fun.

Steddyman

To the op, you misspelled it. It is Premature Wingers. We have too many and they have yet to get fully up to speed.

Couldn’t agree with you more,when was the last time we lost and we came away thinking that we’d put up a battling performance ,we’re as weak as gnat’s pee.

I never thought i'd be saying that about a Burnley team.

Steddyman

Well, wondered why the analytics were showing a spike in traffic, so I'll briefly log in for the first time in six and a half years to say thanks for your kind words, all. And also to point out that the newspaper I was referring to in the piece was The S*n and not the LET. I haven't read the latter...

Keep the faith a win tmr UTC

No chance. We are too soft, and don't have enough fight.

Steddyman

Anyone else watch this guy? Is he a member here?

I really enjoy his content. He talks a lot of sense.

Steddyman

Looks like a save to me. Well done Bailey for making the hard choices.

It's not just the goalkeeper but he is a huge part of the problem. He's just too slow to distribute, he doesn't have the same skillset.

Unfortunately while VK remains, this will not change. Not that I want him to go, but he has to give Muric the nod.

Steddyman

His shot stopping was immense today

However, his pass completion success rate was 35%. A lot longer kicks which I am a fan of and I do wonder if the low success rate is also the fault of our forwards not getting on the end of them,

Steddyman

Difference between them and us, they added experience and fight to the squad, we added kids on the hope of selling them for a profit.

I am assuming that this is a poor attempt at fishing. O’Shea was terrible, his distribution is as bad as I’ve ever seen

Worse than Trafford? I don't think so.

Steddyman

Points from tonights performance: - It doesn't matter who plays, we play the same and are no better - We are poor in defence - We are poor in attack. Our xG was 0.02 in that match. I have never seen a lower score Daft as it sounds, I don't think the issue is the quality of players. I think it is sim...

Put this on the Trafford thread.

For reference, he is NOT the problem. He's actually played fairly well, again.

His stopping has been fine. His distribution has been terrible. All they need to do us put him under pressure to gain back possession

Steddyman

Surely Vinny sees those same stats? How can he persist playing him?

Steddyman

Stat just shown at half time. Trafford 33 passes with 40% accuracy.

He's been a good shot stopper, but our game is based on possession. That means he gave the ball away 20 times.

How can we play possession based with that stat?

Steddyman

What has happened to him? Is he injured.

I think we have the mix wrong atm between you and experience and could do with adding a backbone of experience to our team.

As Alan Hansen once famously said, 'you won't with anything with kids' (and was then proved wrong)

Steddyman

Good interview from him: https://youtu.be/ytGGgiuOsMI?si=pKJJksaQMDQHKnrm

Steddyman

Another intercepted poor distribution from Trafford leads to a goal.

Steddyman

But you’re comparing Muric playing against teams that are two or three levels below what we are now. It’s literally in comparable. Muric vs Nottingham Forest. We win 1-0 Trafford vs Nottingham Forest. We draw 1-1 Though you are right we don't have a lot of apple to apples to compare atm. We could f...

There are no stats on Muric in the PL

So how do you know Trafford is the better shot stopper?

Steddyman

I'm not scapegoting him at all. Our defence looks calm and collected with Muric between the sticks I do also remember the first 8 games last season too, and the same things were being said about Muric, though his distribution was always top notch. Trafford made some good saves today, but he doesn't ...

Steddyman

The problem is a large portion of our goals are coming from defensive mistakes. Your judging goals conceded like a Dyche defence, most of the goals conceded come purely from midfield and defence **** ups. There’s nothing a keeper could have done about 95% of the goals this season. Our defence are p...

There can’t be much doubt that Trafford is much better at keeping the ball out of the net. Muric is unquestionably world class with his feet.
Given the number of shots we’re facing Trafford is the better choice

Again, the stats don't back up these statements. The opposite is true.

All I know for certain is Muric concedes more than Trafford. Trafford is a considerably better shot stopper

How do you know that? Can you provide your reasoning?

Muric conceeded 35 goals in 46 matches.
Trafford has conceeded 13 goals in 5 matches.

Won't be happening. Traffordn will be hear until the end of the season. Clearly he has photos.

Steddyman

We aren’t keeping clean sheets with Trafford being our ‘best player’ id rather have a goalkeeper who can find a Burnley player with his feet, everyone harped on about Taylor not being able to play the system. Nobody can say Trafford is better for the system than muric This. Trafford probably starte...

Steddyman

I thought we played pretty well. Stats aren't a million miles off a team that beat Sheff United 8-0 last week.

Trafford looked better too, but his distribution is still woeful. None of his long balls reached a Burnley player, none. For me, Muric is the difference between losing and winning.

Steddyman

Phil Bird really praising how good Muric is. Has he should. Crucial in our counterattack. Just can't see him getting a game in the league unless Trafford is injured. A bit like the Joe Hart situation. Joe wasn't responsible for us conceding as many as we did, but we were just a much better team wit...

Yes and so was our football. With Foster in or another capable striker I think we coukd have done them. What a player young Al Dakhil is.

I lost count in the first half when Al Dakhill got the ball with loads of space to move forwards but instead turned and passed it back to Trafford.

Steddyman

All we need to change is one thing, Trafford for Muric.

Muric creates chances with spotting precision long balls to bypass midfield. Trafford doesn't his distribution is woeful.

Steddyman

I was on today with my lad who hasn't been on for about 5 years, he loved it. It was an excellent performance from front to back.

Steddyman

I see Matt Lowton is a free agent still. I wonder if he could play at Left Back?

Steddyman

Origi for €4.5m after loan seems a bargain: https://twitter.com/sachatavolieri/stat ... 11851?s=20

Some people should be banned from these threads.

They appear hours after a discussion about something and post as though they have some breaking news.

Drives me mad,

Massengo has signed for Burnley

Steddyman

Lokonga confirmed at Luton

Steddyman

It’s been clear he isn’t coming here for hours, but it hasn’t been confirmed at all. Peter “clickbait” O’Rourke has just posted more clickbait, that’s all. That would be the same Peter "clickbait' O'Rourke that was one of the first to post he was coming? Also: https://twitter.com/Matt_Law_DT/status...

Been saying for 3 hours now, they should have already announce Tresor. Makes me nervous it is not happening, the longer this goes on.

Surprised the Tresor deal hasn't been announced yet.

I am holding onto the hope that the Burnley admins are waiting for page 300.

It's been saying that for ages but still reported that he's not interested.

I believe the reasons he gave VK was that the El Trop hasn't been re-opened.

It has gone far too quiet on Tresor. Got an uneasy feeling about it

Looks like Daka and Origi both off.

Tresor all fine.

Think we must have known for a while about at least one of those being off or the maatsen loan offer wouldn’t have been viable.

Most reliable poster so far. I hope you are right on Tresor, and that we have Maatsen or other options come good.
