Trafford there looking to go long and zero movement. No one wants it.

Ends up going short to O'Shea.

Good last 5 minutes at least

Simple. He was a brilliant footballer but not a clue when it comes to coaching and managing.

He'll take us into league 1 if Pace remains convinced he's a brilliant talent who will take us to new heights.

Nonsense, are you new to football? His last season in the Championship was 100+ points nowhere near relegation.

The quality of Rice and Odegaard has to be taken into account too when criticising our players particularly in midfield.

Westleigh · Post by **Westleigh** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:31 pm

Has Brownhill touched the ball yet?

But his distribution is 100% his fault and no one else in some posters eyes.

Esteve struggling here today. Hope he gets it together.

criminalclaret · Post by **criminalclaret** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:35 pm

There was no awareness up the the goal. We've been a bit more switched on since, though Amdouni "marking" of Ben White is that of a WWE show.

Nah, I think Oshea and Fofana are doing well.

Berge taken up his new role in defence.. if we sit any deeper the back 5 will be in the stands

Grabbing and pulling shirts in the box to stop an advancing attacker is allowed now. Good to know.

Fofana definitely likes to go forward, any other player and it's back to Trafford

No way a pen? Looked a great tackle. FFS.

ClaretOfMancunia · Post by **ClaretOfMancunia** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:39 pm

Fofana putting in the work to get into the box and nobody making the effort to get there with him. Bizarre.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:40 pm

Didn’t touch him there

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:40 pm

Penalty...saka scores.

Greekclaret · Post by **Greekclaret** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:41 pm

Don’t touch him and wasn’t even a proper check. Shock!

Soft.

criminalclaret · Post by **criminalclaret** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:42 pm

The only consolation from that goal is that I have Saka in my FPL team.

Game over

THEWELLERNUT70 · Post by **THEWELLERNUT70** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:43 pm

We have been absolutely dreadful again today, a complete no show, players tossing it off all over the pitch, it's unacceptable again !

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:43 pm

Benefit of the replay did he get the ball? It looked a brilliant tackle.

Was it ever a game to begin with? You just know that Trafford is picking the ball out the net at least twice a game.

Unacceptable to us the fans but the board seems content

talk shite saying a stonewaller and a silly tackle from Burnley defender

CaptJohn · Post by **CaptJohn** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:44 pm

I thought VAR was supposed to stop wrong decisions. He's never touched him. Correct decision is rescind yellow card, book Trossard for diving and goal kick. Oh I forgot it's Burnley vs Gooners so we're wrong.

Westleigh · Post by **Westleigh** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:45 pm

Can’t even play a basic 10 yds pass,inept absolute minimum commitment being shown.

Mike Dean said clear penalty on SKy

Cooclaret · Post by **Cooclaret** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:45 pm

Enough is enough.

Time is up. It’s pathetic. I get the opposition are world class, but even so, there’s such a lack of effort and collective commitment.

Kompany has to answer with his JOB!

Benson and Cullen on please.

I know we’ve been bad but if they’ve been doing that, then I would hope the referee would have at least had a word.

THEWELLERNUT70 · Post by **THEWELLERNUT70** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:49 pm

Our players would be great at the hiding part in a game of hide and seek, it's pathetic as it has been in far too many games this season. It really is inexcusable.

Even now a 2-0 down we are strolling around the pitch, putting absolutely no pressure what so ever on the opposition

Neil · Post by **Neil** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:49 pm

It's just not fun anymore. No hope, no expectation.

After watching this so far, we haven't learned a single thing this season, we've spunked more money than I'm sure we'll ever see spent on a Burnley team again and haven't got any value from that.
If VK got binned tonight I wouldn't be bothered.

At least there might be some huffing and puffing, a sign of urgency and some movement

Paddy1882 · Post by **Paddy1882** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:51 pm

Even the most passionate fans must be struggling this season. The most un-likeable group of individuals (I can’t call them a team) I can remember since I started watching Burnley. We are getting pumped every week anyway get as many as last seasons team in the side and get a bit of passion back.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:51 pm

We’ve competed okay there against a very impressive Arsenal team. Can’t fault too much, they are just way too good. Any chance going forward and their strength / pace at the back is a joke.

Exactly why I didn’t go today can take losing but when players are tossing it off with no fight rather spend my time elsewhere

hoskinsgoalatswansea · Post by **hoskinsgoalatswansea** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:52 pm

We’re sh1t but that’s not a pen. Dismissed quickly by var… shock! Apparently I’ve heard it’s for intent! If that’s the case, the game’s gone for me. What’s football become?!

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:53 pm

The amount of times we have lost possession really softly with players being weak or sloppy balls isnuo there with the worst I have seen this season.

I really hoped we could build from Liverpool, but we haven't yet.

Granted Arsenal are good, but it's been too easy for them.

Only a few players deserve any credit so far. It's grim.

Westleigh · Post by **Westleigh** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:53 pm

Away,so having to watch it on tv, the commentators saying just what a lot of the fans feel ,one of them asked the other what Burnley needed to be doing to get into the game ,he said ‘Well perhaps start by showing a bit more commitment’ that’s basically saying that we should start ******* trying.pathetic.

Enola Gay · Post by **Enola Gay** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:53 pm

45+ minutes of not even being close to a Premier League team, both literally and metaphorically.

A collection of absolute imposters.

Foshiznik · Post by **Foshiznik** » Sat Feb 17, 2024 3:53 pm

We’ve actually not been bad out of possession. The issue is the lack of pace or movement when in possession imo
