No sub goalie?

Cullen not rushed back in - good decision

The side that lost at home to Palace starts at Arsenal
Tresor also not on bench

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:14 pm

Nothing against JBG great servant, but I can't help letting out a little sigh when I see him in the side after all those transfers. Nevertheless, good luck boys!

Swizzlestick · Post by **Swizzlestick** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:14 pm

Just give them a game at least, that’s all I ask. Vitinho probably deserves to keep his place as did alright last weekend, but a whole different kettle of fish today….

daveisaclaret · Post by **daveisaclaret** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:14 pm

Really quite bizarre that Vitinho is ahead of Roberts for a start. Recipe for disaster.

Interested to see what the formation will be. Looks likely to be:

Trafford
Vit, O'Shea, Beyer, Taylor
Brownhill, Berge
JBG, Amdouni, Koleosho
Jay

Played a reserve game the other day so on the way back.

Could be a cricket score.

Has been, but on his way back. I think? he was one of the 4 or 5 returning"first teamers" who turned out for the U21s last weekend, but I could be wrong.

JohnMcGreal · Post by **JohnMcGreal** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:24 pm

I'd have preferred to see Cullen in for Jay to give us that extra man in midfield and also Roberts for Vitinho whose defensive positioning is extremely questionable.

Let's hope we can compete and give them a bit of a game.

bfcjg · Post by **bfcjg** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:24 pm

This team has got goals written all over it.
Sadly for Arsenal.

equinox · Post by **equinox** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:25 pm

EVERY chance/half chance HAS to be taken and NO errors, can be done but everything will have to align.

As ever,in the next few hours, nothing else matters, the kids, the wife, the mortgage can all do one, the Clarets and bringing home the three points trumps everything.

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:25 pm

Perhaps a bit ambitious for today, but given the stick Jay is getting I hope he's this year's Ashley Barnes and gets some crucial goals for us

Dark Cloud · Post by **Dark Cloud** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:28 pm

Whilst Roberts isn't a world beater he's definitely better than Vitihno, especially defensively and Arsenal will have loads of joy down that side.
I agree with the idea muted above of selecting Cullen and leaving out Jay as it could have frustrated Arsenal and kept us in the game longer.
Where's Tresor?

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:30 pm

Wolves look like they are going to go unbeaten last 4 home games v City Villa Newcastle and Spurs. Total 6 points. That’s the level we need to aim for and Wolves were expected to have a tough season like us. O’Neill doing a great job

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:31 pm

Correction they have just scored in last seconds to beat Spurs

ClaretPete001 · Post by **ClaretPete001** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:31 pm

I just think that team is madness against Arsenal, which means we'll probably win.

COYC.....!

It’s a free hit

jojomk1 · Post by **jojomk1** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:37 pm

Tresor has done very little in appearances so far but if he can't get on that bench we seem to be buying a pup

Jacob Rees Dogg · Post by **Jacob Rees Dogg** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:38 pm

Come on Burnley. Let’s disarm those Gunners with our style, wit and charm.

Ampth7 · Post by **Ampth7** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:39 pm

Well, that is certainly an adventurous line up shall we say? I just hope we can keep it tight for as long as possible because an early goal for them could spell disaster.

jojomk1 · Post by **jojomk1** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:39 pm

The pace of Obafemi will tear their back line apart when he comes on

JLR81 · Post by **JLR81** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:39 pm

How early will the first goal go in?

I'll go for within two minutes.

Dark Cloud · Post by **Dark Cloud** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:40 pm

I'll be pleased if we keep to fewer than the U21s managed last night!

jojomk1 · Post by **jojomk1** » Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:42 pm

Just hope they get injuries early doors
I've got Nketiah to score anytime

I've triple captained Saka which means he will have a mare. Happy to take one for the team.
