Brentford now becomes a must win game now, inyou opinion. This was a hard fought, and perhaps lucky point, but i'll take it after a patchy performance.

Another game without a win and a pretty poor performance, looked out of our depth.

How were we out of our depth when we've come away with a hard fought point?

The point further up the thread was about was he capable of…I think you must admit now that he is.

See my post above.

Perhaps he should if he's the kind of wide player who doesn't track back.

Didn’t look wide left to me when he was nodding that one in.

It still doesn't mean he's playing as a striker, because he isn't!

The problems down their right are largely coming from him not tracking back.

Looks a better player than Mee has this season, I'd have Pieters and Collins in regardless of the fitness of the other two.

Thankfully, you're not the manager.

Yep. He was rubbish against Norwich, and if you think differently, then you're just wearing Claret tinted specs!

The record book will show that Barnes has played 185 PL games so far, not bad for someone who is "not PL class" Vokes played 107 games for Burnley in the PL. Whilst you may not consider them PL class they haven't done too badly. I did say that they are PL class by our standards, I think we all acce...

I'm not sure what point you're trying to make. Marco Boogers and Ali Dia played PL football. Were they PL quality?

fidelcastro

I disagree, both have served us well in the PL, within our standards. I'm sure when we get relegated plenty outside our fan base will say we've found our level too ;) Served us well by what? Playing games? That's what they're paid to do. Neither of the two players you mentioned are PL quality in my...

Not really the point I was making.
The idea that a player "has found his level" in the Championship is clearly flawed, I believe some may have said it about Aslhey Barnes and Sam Vokes at certain stages of their careers.

And they'd have been correct.

fidelcastro

Solanke was a teenager in the PL.... One came through the best youth team in the country and has been the main striker for England at every youth level. The other came through at Cambridge. Wood is effective at scoring 10 goals a season, in terms of raw ability he's a million miles behind Solanke. ...

I'd like to say win the cup but the memories I have of that Palace win away last season will live with me forever and I often wonder if we'd have played all our big guns in the FA Cup against Bournemouth then maybe that win at Palace might never have happened.

A case of one interpretation for them and another for the like of Burnley, Newcastle and the ilk?

No.

and if we do drop we should all be thankful of an incredible period in our history. The PL is running away from normal football clubs at an insane rate, if you don't have a billionaire owner you are just canon fodder most weeks. That's so true. It's why I don't get that excited by football these da...

Fair point but he looked like he should be at home doing his homework. It’s not what you’d be expecting.

He can have no complaints about the red card, I agree.

He didn’t punch him, more of a push but watch the lads head snap back when he makes contact.

I don't think the average rugby player would go down like that after being pushed by a teammate.

The defender made a right meal of it though.

Feigning injury to get his team mate sent off!

You are the only one who thought he was poor against Norwich.

I've worked it out now though. You are actually ablueclaret posting under a different name.

The guys has literally played 180 mins at this level. He was decent today but poor against Norwich. We will soon see what level Dyche sees him, if he drops him for Mee then we know he is not quite at Mees level yet.

He was voted man of the match against Norwich.

You are utterly clueless.

We looked far better with more players in there than in some of the other matches.

We were playing Manchester City. It made sense to pack the midfield, but in other games, two strikers will probably be more effective, if we can deliver the right service.

Pope 6 Lowton 7 Collins 8* Tarkowski 7 Pieters 6 McNeil 7 Cork 5 Brownhill 5 Westwood 5 Cornet 6 Wood 4 Barnes 5 JBG 6 To sum up, you have to take your chances against teams of this calibre, as we aren't likely to get that many.

Just our early goal from set piece and we are sorted.

Looks like Dyche ignored your tactical nouse and picked Wood.

I don't blame Dyche one bit for picking that team or that formation, if it is indeed 4-5-1.

Because the experts on here have already found a new position for him, just like they did for Cornet.

2 strikers in every game so far: 7 games , 14 x 90 minimum minutes on the pitch and we have 5 goals one of which was scored by a striker

Jamie Vardy scored for us, so that's two strikers!

Luke Shaw has only himself to blame for having his foot so high, especially in the box.

He was clearing the ball, which he did. I'm not sure what else he was supposed to do.

Why are people obsessed with trying to change players positions.

He is a right back it’s where he has played his entire career and it’s where he will be stopping

You mean Cornet isn't going to play up front?

Damnit!

Not too long ago that isn't even a foul.

Also, how long has 'fouls suffered' been a caption? I've never noticed that one before.

I'd forgotten he was on the bench for the play off final or even still at the club.
