Was searching for it myself!

Anyway, afternoon fellow clarets. Good chance for Arfield, Long and Bardsley - let's hope they take it! (Arfield certainly didn't last game).

early corner and chance for Watford. Not sure why Defour is standing a foot behind the line rather than on the line ?

big chance for Richarlison, over the bar. Not sure why Tarks didn't deal with the cross

Sat at home with Man flu instead of being on the turf.
Arfield is having a bit of a shocker.

As has been said on other threads Arfield is getting into Hendricks' position to much and Ward is looking for a man in front of him.
get out wide, Scotty

Wood needs to watch what Barnes does. The guys massive but get's pushed off the ball far too easily. I know it's a learning curve for him but he had a perfect chance to go down and win a free kick and didn't. Come on Ash teach him the dark arts
