Brownie points for Trafford, saving a 1on1. Corner. GK.

Good save

Trafford’s just made a good save. Best keeper in the country again presumably.

I've often though that if there's anything holding Foster back it's his focus. That and the fact he sometimes seems too nice if that makes sense. He's got technique, work rate and physicality, he just needs to be sharper and more aggressive mentally.

He's been struggling with depression and homesickness, not hugely surprising if he's in his own head a bit.
Pity Barnes has gone in a way, he could have done with mentoring him in the art of the sh**house.

Foster did well to win it back
Townsend coming on

'The art of the shithouse' sounds like a Prodigy album

Twine, Koleosho and Foster have been excellent this half.

Twine looks stronger, quicker and fitter - very excited by his progress.

Need to allow some time for our resident football experts to carefully analyse the matter

spt_claret · Post by **spt_claret** » Fri Jul 28, 2023 8:11 pm

Townsend on, no sign of Weghorst incoming.
Think Wout's probably going to go, shame for me.

A save you would expect any keeper to make.Let’s not pretend he hasn’t made a shocking start to his Burnley career because he clearly has.I hope he comes good I really do.

Swizzlestick · Post by **Swizzlestick** » Fri Jul 28, 2023 8:12 pm

Androd Towsend on apparently

I see the club is still running with the “trialist” line then

simonclaret · Post by **simonclaret** » Fri Jul 28, 2023 8:13 pm

Foster played in by Twine, hooked wide

Spiral · Post by **Spiral** » Fri Jul 28, 2023 8:13 pm

Anyone know who the Trialist is?

Is it Andy Townsend? Bit old innit?

Andre Bikey?

Peter Andre?

Titus Andronicus?

Never mind, just came up on the screen: Androd Townsend

Simps · Post by **Simps** » Fri Jul 28, 2023 8:13 pm

Can’t believe they’ve played in this pitch. Dangerously poor in quality

Koleosho looks like he could be box office.

Twine and Foster have linked up so well this half. Great pace from Lyle again there.
