West Ham United V The Clarets 2pm KO

[IanMcL]

Sadly Ings had too much time and space.

[evensteadiereddie]

or his pay slip

FFS.

[TPClaret]

Great battling performance. No one can surely be negative today. Both teams had chances to win it.

[Safron]

In hindsight shouldn't of gone 5 at the back should of gone 5 in midfield

[FCBurnley]

Eff off Ings That really should be Kompanys last game in charge. We scored a great goal got gifted an og and he still couldn’t organize us to win Lucky to get a point at the end

[StayingDown4Ever]

Just making the observation that a 'shot stopper' would win you the points in games with erm... shot stopping.

Bit of a weak hand for the Ings goal if you ask me.

Very lucky with the VAR offside decision and even luckier with the Berge handball.

[South West Claret.]

Great battling performance. No one can surely be negative today. Both teams had chances to win it.

Yes a battling performance but it still doesn’t mean that Kompany should still go and go now in my very humble opinion

[Nori1958]

I haven't seen a minute of it.... But I'll guarantee somebody will be along to put a dampener on it unfortunately

[chekhov]

Excellent point.
Onwards and upwards!

[CoolClaret]

Joint second for saves in the PL at 106 saves. He's not had a great season, but he's stopped a lot of shots.

Aye it's expected with teams near the bottom of the PL -

I should have specified - I mean more point saving saves that aren't run of the mill stuff.

Things Popey would pull out every week, that sort of thing.

[fidelcastro]

If the Brownhill sub was tactical, it didn't bloody work!

[Poulton-le-Claret]

In hindsight shouldn't of gone 5 at the back should of gone 5 in midfield

Even without hindsight it felt obvious at the time.

[KefkaClaret]

Great battling performance. No one can surely be negative today. Both teams had chances to win it.

I'm sure it's reasonable to be negative about throwing a two goal lead away.

[jlup1980]

Mate I've been pro-Muric since preseason but Trafford's not to blame for the goals today, if he saves either it's a mega save you'd back the first chance every time and second was a flash volley.

Not sure about the equaliser. It's in the middle of the goal, not even close to the corner. He gets down well and clearly gets a good hand on it. I think Trafford will be disappointed he didn't keep it out to be honest.

[Coeus]

And what have we learnt since the home game, absolutely bugger all. Hang your head Kompany.

Leave it out he’s still learning, according to some. I wish I creamed off his salary when I was learning my trade.

[Superjohnnyfrancis]

Very predictable to concede two.

A shame as we played well first half

[Elizabeth]

Best performance I seen from the generally poor Burnley side. Feel we would have won had we not fallen asleep just after half time. So many issues

[Nori1958]

Yes a battling performance but it still doesn’t mean that Kompany should still go and go now in my very humble opinion

For once you're correct.... Kompany shouldn't go

[JimmyRobbo]

Eff off Ings That really should be Kompanys last game in charge. We scored a great goal got gifted an og and he still couldn’t organize us to win Lucky to get a point at the end

I feel your pain.

It's much easier to just accept relegation. We'll come back much stronger as the team will mainly consist of OUR players when we have a more enjoyable next 12 months. People will then have forgotten this year just as they have this season.

[evensteadiereddie]

If indeed we did "throw" a two goal lead...

[Superjohnnyfrancis]

If the Brownhill sub was tactical, it didn't bloody work!

Waste of a shirt like going down to ten

[Hedontplayforyou]

Why on Earth did he take a winger off and put Brownhill on?

Larsen did fine and it took away any attacking intent to push West Ham back and keep them on the back foot , couple that with a **** weak challenge again that costs us a goal 39 seconds in tk the half. Dreadful second half.

[FCBurnley]

Still searching for our Fourth win of the season and it’s mid March

[ArmchairDetective]

Considering our position in the league we gave a good account of ourselves today. Timing of their first goal was frustrating. Not a performance to be negative about but not winning does still feel like another nail in the coffin.

[PremierLeagueClass]

We could have won that.

We matched a team playing in Europe.

Much better performance.

Obviously you'll all focus on the negatives, that's what you all do.

Thankfully it is just a few. It just feels like a lot more because the same few post relentlessly. You have to feel sorry for them really that it’s the best thing they’ve got to do with their time.

[ervi34]

If the Brownhill sub was tactical, it didn't bloody work!

I don't think he's been that bad. Won some duels, worked hard but I can't get how he didn't score that chance in the last minute...

[Nori1958]

I haven't seen a minute of it.... But I'll guarantee somebody will be along to put a dampener on it unfortunately

No guesses for the posters who came along....

[South West Claret.]

Kompany out and out now please.

[TPClaret]

Even when we get a draw away against a European cup winning team. People still slag things off.

[Culmclaret]

Just the sign of a rank bad side. Finds itself 2-0 up through a measure of good fortune and still can’t hold on. Even the worst teams win the odd game but we can’t even do that now

[evensteadiereddie]

Leave it out he’s still learning, according to some. I wish I creamed off his salary when I was learning my trade.

So last season didn't happen?

[Nori1958]

Iam not sure it's as many as you think... Same poster, several usernames..

[ElectroClaret]

Like someone said above, did just the same nonsensical changes in the home game against WH.

Utterly clueless.

[South West Claret.]

Nori one of the bonzos on here is at It again.

[fidelcastro]

I don't think he's been that bad. Won some duels, worked hard but I can't get how he didn't score that chance in the last minute...

I thought he made us visibly weaker.

[TsarBomba]

There’s so much to like and dislike in our performances.

It’s frustrating because it’s the same recurring defensive mistakes that we can’t cut out, which is bizarre considering the pedigree of our manager.

Really pleased to see Cullen back in, too. Should never have been dropped in the first place.

Good point in the end.

[Colburn_Claret]

We could have won that.

We matched a team playing in Europe.

Much better performance.

Obviously you'll all focus on the negatives, that's what you all do.

It's wrong to focus on the negatives, but you can't ignore them either. It was a good display wasted because of a lack of ********. It happens, but to us it happens again and again. It isn't coincidence, it's a lack of learning from past mistakes. If we can't learn to deal with the pressure we might as well give up and go home.

[Nori1958]

Pot... Kettle

[evensteadiereddie]

I hope so. Some Rovers fans too, as you'd expect., I guess.

[Ipreferaflan]

We've just drawn away against a team 7th in the PL and still some are trying to find fault and criticise Kompany and the team. The true fans who were there today showed what they thought of the performance at the end of the game.

[Murger]

No guesses for the posters who came along....

Quoting your own posts. Sad.

[Boss Hogg]

How many has ings scored against us now ? Hoping he’s got us more points than he’s cost us. One for the stattos maybe.

[brexit]

The inspired brownhill substitution changed the game for us it reduced us to 10 men

[Stu]

It might just be me but I really can’t see what Brownhill offers to the side . And next game wouldn’t be surprised to see him start.

[KRBFC]

There was posters on this very topic clamouring for Kompany to introduce Brownhill at half time, he does, we draw 2-2 and it’s all Kompanys fault for bringing on Brownhill

He simply cannot win either way

[burnleymik]

Even when we get a draw away against a European cup winning team. People still slag things off.

Again the performance.

The result is okay in isolation, but they gave us an own goal, hit the crossbar twice, had one disallowed and missed numerous chances.

First half we did well and we had some good individual performances, but the change at half time didn't help us at all and then he brings another defender on with 70 mins gone and we try and sit in, something we haven't managed to do all season. All odd decisions, which ultimately cost us, again.

I have lost all faith in VK.

Well done to Cullen and Fofana, who I thought were both very good.

[fidelcastro]

I can't get on board with the cheating and playacting that occurs every game from us now either.

Barnes was a saint compared to some of the mard arses who currently wear the shirt.

I'm falling out of love with football fast.

[FCBurnley]

Same shite different day

[AGENT_CLARET]

We’re playing a team that are 7th away from home.

Never going to be easy.

Still threw a 2 goal lead away

[Jimmymaccer]

It's wrong to focus on the negatives, but you can't ignore them either. It was a good display wasted because of a lack of ********. It happens, but to us it happens again and again. It isn't coincidence, it's a lack of learning from past mistakes. If we can't learn to deal with the pressure we might as well give up and go home.

Confidence tho in general is shot so even a 2-0 lead is fragile. Hopefully the generally good performance against Bournemouth (score aside!) and todays draw at a decent West Ham helps restore a bit of confidence.

Upwards and onwards!
