Trafford has not shown anything to suggest he's better than Music, Steve, and Larsen has shown a lot to suggest he could be our best all round winger.

Spiral

Experienced too. Something that is very lacking.

Spiral

Should be playing over the back four and into midfield with that defence, but we'll know within the first 15mins if we're ever not going to play onto the traps we are set every game. Worried that without Jay playing in the absence of Foster it suggests we're going to be as predictable as we've been ...

I miss Benny

Spiral

One of the things that provided brief benefit being involved in sport whenever I lost, I found out who the weak characters were. The ones you don't want alongside you because they're weak and let you down. This board brings them out, too. Moaning and complaining as though they know better. We're su...

I’m a relative pup at 37 and in my youth I could only dream of a day when a bunch of high end championship players and assorted internationals and sought after youth prospects were duking it out to be the shittest players we’ve ever seen :lol: I’d love to see what the younger lads made of the likes...

Spiral

Sure but by Dec 2nd we'll have played 14 games, at which point Dyche was level on points with 17th (and only 3 points from 13th). If Vincent is in a similar situation too of course I'd keep him. But that's not guaranteed. The only point that matters is that we stuck with a manager through his first...

Spiral

I'd give him five games (until after Sheffield Utd on 2nd Dec) and if he's not within 3 points of safety I'd make the change. I don't believe for a second it will come to that but if it does there's no point sticking with a failing manager because of what he did in the Championship. We've been in t...

what makes you think we would do that? Not a dig but a genuine question...

Day-drinking and blind optimism!

Spiral

Bad as a lot of these lads are playing they generally all do kind of resemble footballers which is more than can be said about some of the donkeys we've had down the years.

Spiral

I'd take not winning again all season if it meant we get to pi$$ the league with Vinny again next year.

Spiral

LOL no would he eckers like. He's shite, we're shite, we're going down but it's reyt because championship is more fun anyway.

P.S. let's play Muric and see what happens

Spiral

Atmosphere's shite. Like an awkward prom/leavers do where everyone is too afraid to be the first one to dance. No wonder someone at the club has been tasked with chucking darts to try and get a racket going. Instead of giving side-eye to anyone who dares to try getting a chant going, how about joini...

Spiral

It's a joke the sheer number of technicians we have at the club now. We could probably do with one or two more who are a bit more street-wise, know how to go for the kill and whatnot and know how to truly manage a game (not signing Townsend was a bit disappointing for this reason), and in terms of h...

Spiral

Blow anywhere near him, never mind his backside and he will fall flat on his face like today to get a free kick, brilliant player but one of the games top conmen. Did it several times today. Even at Burnley he started the trend of thumping the ground with his arm when fouled to get the other player...

Looking at the Sunday fixtures they’ll only be Exeter v Boro and Mansfield V Port Vale played on the Tuesday.

Lol, Sky getting in their own way of being able to pick an interesting cup match for TV

Spiral

Tie takes place between West Ham and Brighton for Everton. Not sure that changes much tbh.

Dyche v Burnley
Defo tv

Nobody outside Burnley gives a $hit about the narrative. I don't think even Dyche gives a $hit to be honest.

Spiral

Not the worst, not the best.

Spiral

Can't watch from outside the UK :x From our attacking left hand side, Anass takes a right foot in-swinging corner towards the back post, Berge leaps over the defender and heads it straight above the keeper's hands, just under the bar. Goal!!! From almost the dead middle of their half, Zaroury casua...

Spiral

Another 4 guaranteed to be KO'd tomorrow, too. Get money on Villa beating Everton tomorrow for obvious cup-related reasons.

Spiral

Honestly at this point it'd be weirder if Muric DIDN'T do kamikaze stuff just to entertain himself, like, u ok hun? you feeling well Aro? You haven't got flu or summat have you?

Spiral

Riveting drama at the Peninsula Stadium as Jack Cork has his laces replaced.

Spiral

Want to see Massengo come on.*

(*want to hear radio commentators talking about Massengo coming on and playing)

Spiral

You don't judge Muric by his goalkeeping ability because he's not a goalkeeper. You judge him by the same standard you would a midfielder, which is what he actually is.

Spiral

I'm so sorry everyone.

He did that last time he was injured ,looked like he was seriously injured ,then came back on for a few minutes then was out for weeks.

Oh dear. Let's hope history doesn't repeat. Shame how he ends last season absolutely on fire looking every bit a PL winger, then gets injured in pre-season.

I also know exactly what I'm getting when I have a cheeky w@nk. Doesn't mean I don't enjoy it.

Spiral

We really struggled against lower league teams in the cups last time we were in the Premier league when we made changes. Shows how strong our squad depth is now Partly that Kompany never writes cups off like Dyche clearly did. It wasn't just the personnel, because we always had the talent in the te...

Was it a bad tackle that injured him?

He played on for about 10 minutes so I doubt it's too bad (dunno how he got injured). Came off during the goal celebration, so fingers crossed everything points towards precaution.

Spiral

Odobert's name coming up a lot. Lively.

Spiral

This is gonna be 8+ at this rate

Bruuuuuuuuun Larsen definitely putting himself in the picture for a start. He's put himself in the picture every time he's come on IMO. Looks a very good player. If Koleosho hadn't had such an unexpected and blistering start to the season I reckon JBL would be pushing to be 1st choice on the left.

Spiral

Benny seems like one of those players who is overly-protective of his body and won't play unless he's in 100% perfect condition. Arjen Robben was the same, which is curious, because Benny's playstyle is virtually identical.

Spiral

Benny finding his balls and insisting on staying on after a knock! Not before time.

Spiral

Berge felt like one of those 'this could quietly be the signing of the summer' signings. Dodgy first few games, but they were against City and Villa so it's forgivable, but he gives us something no one else in the team does.

Spiral

Why not in a game like this? He reads the game well, can head a ball and is a good passer. All part of our developing fluidity and "total football" ethos. Mascherano and Fernandinho, both played in total football sides, both were defensive midfielders, both ended up slaying it at centre back when n...

So many teams coming up from League One and getting themselves straight in the champ promotion mix in the last seven or eight years. It'd be totally unthinkable for a newly promoted team to get top 6 in the prem at their first attempt, but it happens like every other year in the champ.

Spiral

Luton Wolves draw wouldn't be too bad for us. Keeps more teams nervous.

Spiral

Bloody hell, Rovers go ahead. (no they don't, ignore me, I'm being dumb)

Spiral

I can't really remember Vinny sending a team out without a biggish physical striker up front. Whether it has been Barnes, Jay or Foster, we've pretty much always has someone strong, around 6ft and willing to put himself about leading the line. I can't really remember us playing, for lack of a better...

Oh dear, they might only win by 3 now.

Probably need to see it again but from one of the replay angles from behind Berge you can see his bicep wiggle a bit at the moment of the handball. Hate VAR to death but I think the three decisions, the Forest handball shout, the Berge handball and Foster's elbow, were all right. Still want VAR binn...

Spiral

Still weaker than Villa, City and Spurs though, Goalposts. Definitely more representative of the average PL team.
