JBG giving the ball away on the halfway line leads to great save from Joe

DCWat · Post by **DCWat** » Sat Nov 10, 2018 3:30 pm

Baffling having Wood and Vokes up front. Wood’s contribution without the ball is generally poor so I can’t see the benefit of him playing in a game when it’s likely that the midfield will be overrun.

I hope there are plans to bolster our midfield in December, six months later than obviously needed.

Do we train during the week? Pathetically giving the ball away time after time. Saved there by Hart. Still...In Dyche We Trust.

We desperately need Hendrick in at CM. At least he has height, legs and a bit of pace. It's so pedestrian in the middle currently

We play a really strange game. We pass around at the back lump it forward then pass it back to defence again. It's strange.

Vardy pressing constantly from the front so we end up penned in our own half. Meanwhile, Leicester have the freedom of the first 50 yards before someone goes near them.

I feel like it’s been getting steadily worse, as any remaining heart and pride our guys have begins to fade.

Painful shite, but not in the least bit surprising, especially after seeing that **** poor line-up.

Our strongest side possible would still be well under the cosh, that I'm sure of.

Do agree with that. I’m all for keeping possession but our supposedly better passers are laying it to the defenders to whack it up field and for us then to invariably lose possession.

We’ve done it for a long time now but when we are losing the majority of second balls, it becomes far more obvious and frustrating to watch.

HiroshimaClaret · Post by **HiroshimaClaret** » Sat Nov 10, 2018 3:35 pm

Sorry Vokes but that is pathetic.

Lee Dixon "really laboured feel about the forward line for Burnley." Tell us something we don`t know.

Hart's an incredible shot stopper,just a shame he has an allergy to catching the ball.

Wood with that half ar5ed run in to the channel from the Gudmunson pass just about sums things up

We just persist in giving the ball away around halfway. Not acceptable.
Our defence is getting all the grief for the goals conceded but no defence could stand the pressure they are put under.

SGr · Post by **SGr** » Sat Nov 10, 2018 3:38 pm

Lest we forget that this is a Leicester side WITHOUT James Maddison, their key creator. No Maguire either. We've been handed some luck, and still look like rolling over.

DCWat · Post by **DCWat** » Sat Nov 10, 2018 3:38 pm

I’ve not seen enough of him, but I’d hoped that Vydra would be filling the gap between midfield and the striker, also doing some pressing from the front.

THEWELLERNUT70 · Post by **THEWELLERNUT70** » Sat Nov 10, 2018 3:39 pm

Wave after wave of Leicester attacks, it's virtually all one way traffic

The PL has sussed us out. We play our back 4 so narrow they are now all putting their widemen chalk on heels and the crosses are flooding in.

Dyche hasn't let him occupy that space. Seems to me like he's just there for the flick-ons that never come.

Leicester haven't been impressive. I'd say they've been average. But average at this level happens to be miles better than us.

Sad reality.

FactualFrank · Post by **FactualFrank** » Sat Nov 10, 2018 3:41 pm

We're certainly not good enough for the Premier League, from how we have played this season. And I can't see that changing from now until the last day of January, when we might bring a player in.

I've been saying the same for weeks, as have a lot of others. How the he'll can SD not see what the problem is.
Anyone can have a bad game, or two, but this has been going on for far too long. And nothing done to address it, just the same again.
It's shite.
