To be fair they could give most teams 30 minutes start!

It was probably the crowning part of a drill.

He was likely abscessing the opposition and expecting them to be filling the goals on the Sunday.

Saw this earlier and loved it...I mean, I'm scared of the dentist ! Long may we may make the big boys feel this way and fair play to Pep for a great analogy.

I expect (away from the claret tinted glasses) is that it's **** but we have to do it and take no pleasure in it like one of lifes annoyances.

Anyone seeing this as in anyway complimentary and not downright arrogant is ******* stupid tbh.

A lot of City fans last season were feeling the same and were more worried about coming to Burnley than they were about the United game. Spoke to a few before/after the match in the cricket club who all said “our title will be decided at Turf Moor and it’s a horrid place to come”.

Also saw some comments a while back about Pep saying how he never had to change tactics so many times in a single game as he did against Dyche at TM a few seasons back and how it was one of his biggest tests since landing in England as a manager during a single game to work out a way to win.

Didn't Pep once say, I think after the 1-1 draw at home, something along the lines of Burnley have the best system in the league as we play the way we need to perfectly?

Who would have thought being the best in the world included the ability to give team talks with as much substance as that.
