And the man of the match & player ratings result for the Liverpool game and I have to admit being stunned by how low some posters marked in the ratings. I don't think they really appreciated just who we were playing against.

I had to watch on tv so I didn’t mark but some of the comments were ridiculous.

We’ve just played one of the very best teams in Europe.

Baffling to be honest given who we were playing

Yes....the Champions of Europe!

We did play the champions of Europe but that does not mean that when we get the ball back we just lump it anywhere or poor passing - when we play lesser teams we seem to be less anxious.

Genuine question - why do you ‘support’ Burnley? You seem to get absolutely no enjoyment out of it and let’s face it, things are unlikely to ever get any better. So why bother?

It's almost as if the very best teams make it difficult for their opponents.

Has been playing superbly so far this season and looks back to his best. Was amazed he wasn't in the England squad to be honest, but if he carries on playing like this for the rest of the season, not only will it be a good year for us but he'll be in the Euro's next year for sure (assuming we qualify).

If he’d never been in an England squad then it might have been understandable but he’s started this season in such good form his omission is baffling.
