It was certainly part of his game at Leeds, we just knocked it out of him.

Come on, being critical of players is fine, wholly exaggerating the weaknesses that you perceive them to have, is not.
Struggle to think of many of his crosses that we’ve scored off over the years. Always been a part of his game that hasn’t really improved.

Re: Burnley v Luton - Player Ratings

Thought JBG did ok but two massive moments that change the game the sitter in the first half and the ball he chose bizarrely to fire across in the air instead of rolling it along the floor for a tap in at the back post which was possibly his last kick of the game. That would have sealed the game.

Gave the ball away in his signature half-arsed manner which led directly to the cross they scored from.

As much to blame as VAR, though it was Kompany who put him on the pitch for some unfathomable reason.
Don’t forget his attempted back heeled flick trying to clear it after he’d lost the ball.
