Re: Wigan v Burnley match thread
That's it.. I'm done with this team. What use is 5 -1 when I had 3-1 in the prediction league.

Re: Wigan v Burnley match thread
Not sure about the poster earlier who said this is the worst we’ve played…… we’ve mixed it up, played toe-to-toe, then played possession football, switching the approach seamlessly. Classic performance

Re: Wigan v Burnley match thread
Said at golf today to a load of Blades that we are either going to win the league by 15 points or finish mid table, nothing in between. All about whether this flamboyant side can do it amongst this physicality.
Good signs today. Should be on 18 points really for various reasons, great signs if we think we should be winning every game.

This has been absolutely belting - not without defensive/goalkeeping question marks - but belting.
That is just what this squad needed. Anything is possible if we sign a striker and centre back.

Re: Wigan v Burnley match thread
A joy to watch, pleased for Cork and Brown hill seems like they have a manager whose system can exploit their skills.
Too much talent in the team
All I want is a decent cup run now.

Re: Wigan v Burnley match thread
What a difference a good win makes.
At half-time was worried Wigan might get back into it.
But a great result that's made all Claret fans happy. Me included.
Shall stay up and watch the goals tonight.

Re: Wigan v Burnley match thread
Very impressive. We mixed play a lot more and it got results- less shakiness at the back besides the penalty since we weren't afraid to clear when under pressure, 2 goals as a direct result of long balls from Muric - who I think is a better mid-long range passer than short frankly- and an actual attacking impetus.
Vitinho really impressed in the wide left role, Bastien a brilliant cameo, THB solid, Jay great performance, Tella great, Gudmundsson threatened and looks like he's getting back to himself, Brownhill a new man.
Hopefully this is the game where it has all clicked rather than a false dawn because that was really good today.

Re: Wigan v Burnley match thread
If that isn't a statement win I don't know what is, worried at HT considering how last week panned out, but we blew them away 2nd half.
And everyone played their part, 2 goals and an assist for Brownhill, goal and an assist for Bastien, goal for Jay, goal for Tella, and lastly an assist each for Cork and Vitinho.
8 goals in 2 games, not a bad haul is it.

Re: Wigan v Burnley match thread
Did in the second half what we should have done against Blackpool. Totally took the sting out of the game with low risk possession football and gave Wigan the run around. No surprise to see the game stretch in the final ten minutes which allowed us to pick them off with ease.

Re: Wigan v Burnley match thread
Think he is brilliant, the way he stretches the pitch for us is unbelievable. We won't keep many clean sheets playing this way but I think we will be able to outscored any team. We have so many attacking options teams will not be able to plan for every line up We may have and the way out 7 to 10 attacking players can interchange with one another

Made one mistake today but people forget how young he is, starting to see his shot stopping ability more now and seemed to knock it clear more today when under pressure. I think he'll turn in to an important player for us and top GK

Re: Wigan v Burnley match thread
Watch it back on tv, he comes out to collect the ball with both hands but he misses by millimetres he makes a little bit of contact with the player who still manages to get his shot off and the player goes down because of the contact and its 100% a penalty, Muric was left stranded because our small in height team lost the over the top ball, if he'd stayed in his line and faced a one on one and the lad scored most on here would be moaning he didn't come out, at the end of the day he was millimetres off making a good save but some numptys have already picked him out to be this season's Geoff Hendrick

Well yes it could, we could score 5 against Rovers, now that would be sweet to see.
Shows why people shouldn't get carried away, Rovers won their first 3, now they've lost their next 3 without scoring a goal.
