Seen enough of him now. The nothing man.

I hope to god we have a get out clause from actually having to pay good money for him.

I agree.
When you’re in a fight, he shouldn’t be brought on.

Whenever he comes on my heart sinks. He does nothing but lose possession. He gave the ball away just prior to their goal. What is Kompany up to? He makes the most rubbish, incomprehensible substitutions of any manager I have known. But signing and still playing Tresor is a complete enigma. He takes Odobert, who works hard, off and replaces him with this nonentity. A complete liability. As far as I'm concerned, he lost us the game.

Think he'll be a very good player for us but he definitely doesn't look like the player to bring on when you go 5-4-1 to defend with your lives.

God only knows why he was brought on, it’s the first time today I actually feel like I’m losing patience with VK, he’s literally the last player I’d have brought on, weaker than my 8 year old daughter.

How can Kompany bring Tresor on when it’s backs against the wall? it’s down to VK and nobody else,if we had played like this last season he had an excuse as he’d no experience ,but the guy played for City all those years knew what was required to compete obviously Luton’s manager mixed a few skillful players with plenty of muscle and graft,we mixed a load of skillful players with a load of wimps.

If you could pick two of the current squad who you wouldn’t want in the last few mins of a tight relegation battle it would be Tresor and Larson. Both an utter embarrassment when they came on hopefully id honestly get rid of both this January.

Gave the ball away in his signature half-arsed manner which led directly to the cross they scored from.

As much to blame as VAR, though it was Kompany who put him on the pitch for some unfathomable reason.

He looks like a man who regrets coming to Burnley. He clearly has talent based on what he did last season, but he looked half asleep when he came on. I still hope he'll come good but physically he looks ill equipped for the premier league.

Larsen didn't do much wrong. At least he looked interested in closing players down

It's easy to forgive things not coming off for him, or struggling to adapt to the premier league. But you can't come on for the last 5 minutes, fresh as a daisy, and not chase and close down as hard as you can. Or back out of tackles.

Doesn’t fancy a relegation battle. Has come from a ball dominant title winning team in the Belgian league to this and looks miles off the required intensity levels. It’s a shame as he’s shown signs of real promise in glimpses and would probably do really well in the Championship when we dominate games more.

I've said it many times on here, Tresor and Ramsey are two players I can not get my head round. I have no idea why we bought them, they are so far from PL standard it's not true....they will struggle in the Championship next year.

No idea why VK chose to bring him on.

Pulled out of multiple challenges, positioning was poor, no good beating a player or retaining possession.

Wouldn’t have minded Cork coming on in CM and putting Brownhill wide given how we were setting up.

He’s had two kids in Koleosho and Odobert make him look ridiculous all season with his crap passing, crap dribbling and lack of effort.

I have no idea what he’s supposed to bring to the table. In a team overloaded with wingers, he our worst one.

Don’t forget his attempted back heeled flick trying to clear it after he’d lost the ball.

Agree with you. I saw the vision, plenty of space down the sides to counter with fresh legs. Neither of them broke sweat tonight, truly awful.

Not withstanding my anger at VAR tonight, I’m angry at what I saw from Tresor. Was he at fault for this result? Not really no, obviously, but that non-performance over the course of the few minutes he was on the pitch was so lacking in any intensity, any fight, any heart, any…effort (!!!) that I am apoplectic. He played alright I thought against Liverpool so this isn’t a long held bias being vented, but this was an unacceptable level of performance in a very key moment.

I do not want or expect to see him coming on for for us in any similar pressured situation in the near future. He is way off the pace and unless we see a monumental change in desire (let alone ability) we will need to be trying to get out of spending €18m on him this summer.

It's not even hindsight for me to moan about Tresor..I said when he came on the he was perhaps the last player in the world we should be bringing on when looking to close out a tight game against a big physical team. What on earth was VK thinking ???? Ground my teeth to dust when he surrendered possession ridiculously resulting, ultimately, in their goal from the subsequent phase of play.

Exactly and made even worse with Benson and Zaroury both sat next to them on the bench! I don’t actually think Larson touched the ball when he came on just jogged around in his gloves like last Friday at Spurs.

I singled out his ambling defending as being a major cause of Villa's late winner and I'm afraid that same lack of willingness to scrap and give everything was evident tonight in his short cameo. The goal came about precisely because he coughed up possession for that reason and it wasn't the only time.

He and Brunn Larsen were given a bitnof a hospital pass by VK because it is always hard got wide players to get the pace of the game when the team don't have the ball. But for all that Tresor has to want it more. He's been a really ill conceived signing.

Its games like this that turns fans against you. The defence supported by Brownhill & Cullen battled for everything. With minutes to go he was chickening out of challenges. Hopefully our coaches were not too engrossed in their laptops to spot it
