We were never going to get anything from City/Spurs games, but it's not that, it's the manner. Sheffield United's first season up with not much money than us, and they've managed to play nice attractive football.

Lowton has been a good signing for us, but the time has most certainly come for him to be replaced, sorry Matt.

Send Drinkwater back if him staying and building fitness for another three months comes at the expense of another central midfielder too, we cannot dawdle. Absolutely need a central midfielder who has a tackle and a range of passing bringing in ASAP.

GUTLESS by the team......letting a player run 3/4 the length of the pitch past six Burnley statues and not one single tackle

The players should pay for the fan's that travelled to the game today

Anyone protecting Dyche after the last 3 performances needs to have a word with themselves. It's his job to sort the tactics, pick the team and lift them up. I won't hear all the ******** about top six sides etc, every other clubs has had a go, we just roll over. Absolute ****.

People complained about the attacking quality of Arfield and Boyd but with two attacking wingers on the pitch instead you can see why we used to get some decent results against the big teams.

Never understood why we didn't keep them, if anything just for these kind of games.

We've managed to upgrade them with creative players but it means little if you can't take the game to teams.

To me we look like we don't know whether we are trying to attack or defend.

Defensively we’ve been really really poor, but we should have scored twice now after that header from Jay there.

That’s the disappointing thing here, if we had been able to defend we have it in our locker to create a chance or two against them.

Our entire attack is literally just get Dwight to whip in a stupidly good ball and pray.

I'd say last 3, plus several more during the season. We've had "This is the worst performance of the season" by a lot on here, nearly every game!

We have zero pace in the side and that's why we keep getting broke on when we have the ball from set pieces in the opposition box.
We simply cant get back.
That's why we do nothing when we dont score 1st because it is impossible for us to chase a game

Lowton has been pish poor now for the last 2 years and should be nowhere near a premier league side. Dyche is going back to his negative pre 2018 Xmas tactics by sitting to deep

Every bad defeat the same negative things are said about Dyche, tactics & the team.

Our passing is so pedestrian. Most of them look as if they won’t reach. It’s shocking when you’ve seen good sides pinging it about.

The ‘foul’ by Chris Wood there is very soft.

Goal should have gone to VAR.

It’s the quality of the opposition, Frank. Their side must have cost 3 or 4 times ours. Let these games go but win the next two. We do have 3 starters missing also, 4 for me cos I’d start JBG.

I'd be surprised if JBG features much this season so I'd forget him.

The long direct ball only works with Barnes & Wood up top - it doesn't work if you either of those are missing.

To be expected if the big teams turn up. Both Tottenham and Manchester City have been on a different level.

But in fairness to Dyche he tries to shut up shop vs Manchester City and gets criticised. Now he puts out a more attacking side and we're out of luck again, so far anyway.

Pace is our nemesis, if we had Keane back in defence he could have caught Son.

Nothing wrong with Wood's challenge on Gazzaniga, typical to protect the goalkeeper too much when he's not good at claiming crosses. He went down, he friend, he got a friend.
