Cork was terrible and has been for a while. No strength or pace and an inability to play a forward pass. He's a right footed David Jones.

-3

Shall we just accept it as 3s for the entire club and move on?

Everyone who started other than Gibson and Barnes was a 4 at best. Gibson and Barnes both a 6. Subs made no impact at all.

Each and every one of them get a 1 from me. They get that 1 mark for a 5min spell first half where they actually pressed. If it has to be jumped to a 3 for the ratings then the mods please do so but I can not give above a 1 for THAT today. It’s not the losing it’s the way we have lost.

I wasn't there,didn't watch a stream,but losing 5-1 at home,no one deserves a mark....sorry.

Might be a good idea not to do your marks till tomorrow.

Hart 3 - absolutely hapless and needs dropping
Lowton 3 - rubbish
Mee - 3 - can someone tell us where the real Ben is hiding ?
Tarks - 3 - shadow of a player who got in the England team
Gibson - 5 - best of the 3 CB's and gets taken off

you know what, the rest can all have 3 too.

Dyche -100, utterly disgraceful

Error by Taylor conceeding corner for first
Error by Lowton for second (needless foul)
Error by Oliver for third.
Burnley goal by Barnes not Gibson
Open goal miss by Tarks to make it 2-3
Awful by Hart for fourth
Game over

Hart - 4 I haven’t seen him as part of the problem but cannot say that today. Inspired zero confidence altho to be fair it’s a 2 way thing.

Lowton - 4. Offered nothing either way
Mee - 3. Unacceptable.
Tarks - 4. Glad he has the 1 England cap as the next will be some time off based on that
Gibson - 5 better than the other 2 but that’s no compliment.
Taylor - 6. The one player I felt looked up for it.

Cork - 3. Another awful display in a string of awful displays.
Hendrick - 4. Played our one incisive ball to Barnes but 1st half had to check the teamsheet.
Westwood- 5 got stuck in but bang average at best

Barnes - 5
Vokes- 4

It’s realky hard to judge strikers when the long balls aren’t even close to them.

Dyche - 3. Wrong wrong wrong. Against a team who’d just conceded 6 for fun you’d have thought today at home we might have gone for it. However we had zero width and we are defensively all over the place.

Kevin Long must come in for Mee. Cork must go out for whoever. We simply cannot afford passengers like this.

We looked like a relegated team today.

How did Barnes deserve a 6? He won no headers, did nothing all game... How Wood gets on that picture is beyond me, Dyche doesn’t know his best team and feels obliged to pick Wood in some point of the game.

Hart - 3 sooner pope is back the better
Taylor - 5 thought he played well, apart from the appalling first touch for the corner.
Mee - 3 poor
Tarks - 3 wish I could vote lower
Gibson - 5 grew into the game, I think he’s a decent player.
Lowton - 3
Westwood - 3
Cork - 3 forward is sometimes an option...
Hendrick - 5 thought he started second half very brightly and for some reason got taken off
Vokes - 5 won his fair share of headers against 3 tall defenders.
Barnes - 3

Gudmundsson - 3
McNeil - 3 did either touch the ball?

Dyche - wrong tactics from the off.

Hart 4 doesn't command his 6 yards box nearly enough for me, fingers pointed for at least 2 of the goals for me
Lowton 5 wasn't confident in the slightest
Tarky 5 so, so sloppy thinks he's rio Ferdinand
Gibson 6 rusty, needs games
Mee 4 don't like saying it, but looked uninterested
Taylor 5 at fault for the first , just get rid
Hendrick
Cork
Westwood
All 5, unfair to mark them all apart, they are the least creative CM 3 I've seen play for Burnley for a vet long time. All look incapable of affecting a game
Barnes 6 tried
Vokes 6 tried

Dyche 3 , set up like that in what is getting "must win or at least must not lose games" then you're asking for trouble
Something really needs to change and very, very soon

I’d give Gibson 3, the ready 2 each and they’re lucky to get that. A Pants Performance. A Throw One In performance. A relegation stamped all over it performance. Awful

Absolutely pathetic. After the last 3 games I thought we were getting back to 'normal' but that took the p1ss

Hart 3 - I've defended a lot of games but today he deserves the lowest mark
Lowton 5 - why drop Bardsley when he was doing well
Tarkowski 5 - thinks he's made it
Mee 5 - not right mentally I'm guessing
Gibson 6* - looked only one of back 6 that was any good
Taylor 3 - for the 15th time this season, he's not a PL player
Cork 5 - lost in midfield
Westwood 5 - as above
Hendrick 4 - brings nothing. Powderpuff
Barnes 5 both strikers getting sod all service as usual
Vokes 6 - put himself about more than Barnes

Dyche 3. To make no changes before half time very poor. To make none by an hour shocking.

Then to bring 9ff our best performer while in turn making the defence and midfield worse, unbelievable. Not to mention no Vydra.

Beaten 5-1 at home by an average Everton. The team never looked comfortable with the formation, the management team have to take blame for that.

Granny WeatherWax wrote:Dychenosaur. Let’s keep hoofing it up cos those big Everton defenders might make a mistake one day. Sigh.

We've had two forms of attack all season, 1 is the hoof it upfront tactic in the hope we get a knockdown or a corner from it, and 2 is a hopeful cross that never reaches the man or is just defended far too easily

Both mid-table championship tactics at best. We've gone backwards

3 For the following because I have to : Hart, Lowton, Tarkowski, Mee, Cork, Hendrick.
4 For Taylor, Westwood, Barnes, Vokes
5 Gibson

Dyche complete gash, no viable tactics, no ability to change the game plan. Doesn't like pacy players aka Vydra because they want it on the floor but a big thank you for the £200 plus saving that I will make on my season ticket because as others have said I will not renew if our board doesn't grow a pair and let him take us down. I have no problem with championship football but not with him in charge. People say he should be given a chance because he has earned it, ********! he earned the right to a good wage and a good contract which he got both, so whatever it costs get shut.

Well that had the feel of an end of an era performance. Truly horrific viewing


Hart 4 Really poor
Lowton 3 waste of space and a lazy tw@t to boot who seems to have an attitude problem
Tarkowski 4 Clumsy
Mee 3 if I could mark lower I would. Had a hand in possibly 3 of their goals, looks uninterest and seems not to give a sh!t
Gibson 6
Taylor 6 The amount of defensive work he got through, getting in blocks, tracking people and covering the ar5e of the pathetic Mee was a decent effort
Cork 3 pulling a fridge again
Westwood 4
Hendrick 5 at least he can move the ball quickly
Barnes 4
Vokes 3 woeful

Gudmundsson 4
McNeil 4

The dye was cast with the original formation. Why the hell play with a passive set up when you are playing against a team that's just conceded 6. The subs were ridiculous too. Leave Mee on was idiotic when he was having a stinker as was the removal of Hendrick who was our best midfielder

Times up for me I'm afraid Sean

Dyche 3 - took off our best center back on the day, our only attack minded midfield player when losing and Vokes who won pretty much all his headers when Barnes did nothing all game. All three subs completely wrong and far too late. Look nailed on for relegation. More goals conceded now than the whole of last season.

Is pope fit yet cos he’s obviously lost confidence in / fell out with Heaton.

Not watched today but by God it's now time for the board to act and give some one else a fighting chance in the second half of the season - we are heading for 20 points

I think they are the worst marks I have ever seen you give. I watched on the TV and it was as bad as it could get Crystal Palace apart

The entire team and the manager should have been given pelters at full time for that showing, but worryingly, a large portion of the crowd seem to have accepted these new lows as an inevitability. That kind of performance should never be accepted, no matter what.

A grotesque, unacceptable performance all round. If we don't see a positive response on Sunday, then all options must be considered by the board, because this can't be allowed to continue for another 6 months.

At a loss after that one. Thought before half-time we were going to show some fight and go for it, but as soon as it went flat again, we looked hopeless. So many times we had a good position to try and play the ball through, instead we either went sideways, backwards or lumped it up top and although Vokes did okay, lumping it to Barnes, with Mina and Keane on his shoulder was pointless, yet we did it time and time again.

Hart. 3. Very poor. First and fourth goals were ridiculous
Lowton 4. If he was brought in to provide more attacking threat than Bardsley it didn't work
Tarks. 4. Poor at both ends
Mee. 3. Goals 1,3 and 5
Gibson. 6. The best of the back 3
Cork. 4. Huff and puff
Hendrick. 5 . Anonymous at times but some contribution
Woodward. 5. Better second half
Vokes. 4. Didn't get anything
Barnes. 4. See Vokes

Subs.4

Didn't understand our approach today. Lob long balls into a strong and tall Everton back three and do it from defence not out wide?!

Hart 3 - needs dropping. Pope is a far better keeper in the context of the current Burnley team and the added fact that we seem to be playing against giants nearly every week.
Lowton 3 - did not deserve to start the game / and did not deserve to end the game either
Tarks 3 - countless mistakes. Needs to stop thinking he is Bobby Moore and get back to playing more like Darren Moore.
Mee 3 - if I could score lower than 3 then I would. He is the one who should have been dropped after his display at Arsenal. Long has been playing far better than him.
Gibson 4- best of our defenders
Taylor 4 - shocking for first goal. He looks out of his depth but is not helped by the players around him.
Cork 3 - got embarrassed and over run
Westwood 3 - ditto
Hendrick 3 - ditto
Barnes 5 (MoM) - at least should some fight.
Vokes 4 - at least won some headers in first half but their centre backs will not have an easier game this season.

JBG 3 - game over by the time subs came on
McNeil 3 - ditto
Wood 3 - ditto (and he should not have come on after the way he has played this season)

Dyche dropped Bardsley and Long today. He may have had his reasons but when you drop players who have been playing well and clearly playing better than others that can have a big impact on individual and team spirit.
I do not see how we can avoid relegation now. We are devoid of quality in so many areas of the pitch it’s not something that can be resolved in a transfer window in this league because of the quality of the teams we are playing every week. It’s ok if you need to bring in a couple of players but not when you are looking at 7 or 8 players every week who are performing poorly.

Major rebuilding job needed and i’m afraid it might have to start with the manager leaving (and that’s first time I have thought that since he came)
