Burnley vs West Ham

[Buxtonclaret]

Looks shaky today, does Tarks

[Devils_Advocate]

I thought those big decisions always go against us? Had that been at the other end you'd have been moaning on here it was a penalty and had it been for West Ham the ref would have def given it.

[Buxtonclaret]

Jay loops a header wide

[ElectroClaret]

Close for Jay.

[burnleymik]

Looked like Benhrama was diving before Cork even got to him.

[Safron]

Wood and jay feeding on scraps , need one of them to drop off and make themselves available

[joey13]

Another difficult watch

[jojomk1]

What a stupid attempt at a tackle from Mee

[Buxtonclaret]

Benrahama's a real diving git

[BOYSIE31]

Poor viewing again - getting bored of it

[Safron]

Poor viewing again - getting bored of it

Be happy to have 0-0

Available for what - it's just hoof ball

Nobody likes us - and after 48 mins of that dross you can maybe understand why

[nyclaret]

We are so bloody boring to watch it’s painful.

[KRBFC]

God we are dreadful, we can't even keep the ball for a spell and build an attack. Just welly it anywhere and hope for a lucky bounce of the ball.

[Safron]

Yes because they aren't dropping off for the ball too big a gap from midfield

[Devils_Advocate]

Decent start before West Ham got on top but very similar to Wolves game with a 0-0 draw looking a good bet and every chance we could nick it with a goal.

Id take 0-0 then a win against Watford to keep us well in the mix

[jojomk1]

God we are dreadful, we can't even keep the ball for a spell and build an attack. Just welly it anywhere and hope for a lucky bounce of the ball.

Dyche Plan A in a nutshell

[THEWELLERNUT70]

Absolutely clueless in attack, but a hell of a lot of or problems stem from centre midfield and our inability to pass and break forward with pace in support of the front two

[SussexDon1inIreland]

Yes we need a bit of luck
Is JBG good enough at this level?

UTC

[gandhisflipflop]

Another snooze fest. Awful awful viewing. Wingers who don’t create, strikers who are non existent. Also we got very lucky with that pen decision because I thought that was a pen. At the other end I’d have been livid had that not been given.

[Burnley1989]

Don’t look like winning a game at the minute, playing for a point every week

[Tribesmen]

Happy with the score so far , just need a bit of luck in the box and can hang on for a 1-0 win

[elwaclaret]

Kept West Ham pretty much quiet, if we get one off a backside second half this was a great first half against an inform team. Build on that first half Burnley

[Billyblah]

Where are central midfield

Midfield simply not Premiership standard. Too slow, too many misplaced passes, a lack of ideas in testing the West Ham defence.
Another game of scraping around, killing the game and hoping for a 0-0
With Cornet out only slim hope of getting the ball into their area is Vydra.

[gandhisflipflop]

Just for balance - look at the Maddison that pen given for Leicester today. Pathetic.

[THEWELLERNUT70]

I thought those big decisions always go against us? Had that been at the other end you'd have been moaning on here it was a penalty and had it been for West Ham the ref would have def given it.

If Scott had given that it wouldn't have been overturned

[jojomk1]

Yes because they aren't dropping off for the ball too big a gap from midfield

What midfield ?

The midfield are not showing for the defenders so they just hoof it up

They are not showing to support the front two so it just comes straight back

[Safron]

Don't know what has happened to Dwight doesn't seem a threat anymore, one thing second half I can see west ham upping there game unfortunately we can't

[KRBFC]

Happy with the score so far , just need a bit of luck in the box and can hang on for a 1-0 win

That's as good as it gets? bore everyone to death and pray we get lucky to score a goal?

[RVclaret]

JBG needs to retire

[FCBurnley]

Anybody understand what system we are playing other than pass to west ham as often as possible. We look an old team with no pace. 0-0 is the best possible ht score we could get with that performance

[burnleymik]

I miss the days when Dwight ran at a defence and whipped in those sublime crosses...

[Newcastleclaret93]

Stonewall penalty

This is our chance let’s make it three points

[Safron]

I miss the days when Dwight ran at a defence and whipped in those sublime crosses...

What's happened too him is it the way he has been told to play, if so he might as well move on does us no good at all

[ClaretMat]

Would have been a very soft pen, Dawson wasn't in playing distance of the ball, nor making any attempt at all to play it. Correct decision.

[minnieclaret]

The norm, sh!t first half, better second. We always up it towards the Jimmy Mac. We’ll be reyt.UTC

[groove]

What an awful game.

[THEWELLERNUT70]

I'd take JBG off and give Roberts a run

[Garnerssoap]

Jay Rod to nick it

[jojomk1]

I'd take JBG off and give Roberts a run

I'd take JBG off

And give you a run

[Colburn_Claret]

Yes because they aren't dropping off for the ball too big a gap from midfield

Then the midfield need to push up, not the forwards drop back. Our problem is our negativity. Safety first will cost us, because as soon as we go a goal down it's game over. If Jack was the answer to our midfield woes, we might as well prepare for the Championship now.

Last season we were the same until the Villa game, when we finally threw caution to the wind and went for it, got bodies in the box, and balls into the box. It worked. This season it might not, but at least we won't be going down with a whimper.

[Taffy on the wing]

Another difficult watch

We're drawing against one of the top teams this year.

I suppose you were expecting us to pass them off the park a la Barcelona.

I think maybe you are 13. West Ham have beaten all the top teams this year.

[Buxtonclaret]

Come on, let's do 'em
Off we go.

[Longsidebovril]

Come on lads.

[ElectroClaret]

Great chance for Jrod.

[Buxtonclaret]

What do you think your doing, putting stuff in perspective on a match day thread.

[Buxtonclaret]

Phew.
Good lad, Ben

[burnleymik]

Rice just made tarks and cork look daft. good job Mee stepped up.

[joey13]

Much better

[SussexDon1inIreland]

Well played Taylor but why wasn’t their player booked?
