Burnley vs brighton.
Re: Burnley vs brighton.
What an utter farce again. Berge having to play cb Muric does it again. Foster is currently the worst player in a Burnley shirt. We replace BL with Tresor !!! I could go on and on but why. Something is big time wrong in our club. Don’t know what it is but it is like a cancer spreading through the whole club. Players ? Management ? Owners ? Who knows but it is destroying us

Absolutely indefensible by Muric.
I could forgive his error last week because he normally sets up our attacks with his distribution, but he was utterly dreadful in all areas today.

Re: Burnley vs brighton.
We don't though. We have two keepers who aren't good enough for the Premier League. But Muric is still better than Trafford and I've explained why I think so. You can quote me saying "The grass is blue" next if you like, it equally won't make sense. Enjoy the rest of your afternoon.

I agree.Paddy1882 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 13, 2024 5:11 pmMight get pellets for this but I thought we were very good today against a more that decent Brighton side, yes we missed chances and conceded chances but on the whole I thought we looked good. Also Muric is twice the keeper Trafford is but he’s always had a clanger in him.
We should have been 2-0 up at half time and ultimately shot ourselves in the foot.
Shame but it's the story of our season.

Re: Burnley vs brighton.
Even the most ardent Muric fan, which I am, cannot defend that.
Muric has cost us 3 points in the last 2 games and if you’ve slagged Trafford off this season you have to also accept Muric’ failings.

Let’s not let another Muric moment distract from the fact that we were denied one of the most obvious penalties of the season.

Muric’s howlers in the last two games have cost us four points and any realistic chance of staying up.

Re: Burnley vs brighton.
Quite the decision about who to start against Sheffield, do you start Trafford who gets absolutely bullied in crosses and corners or do you go for Muric despite his last two cock-ups?

Re: Burnley vs brighton.
Moneyball has run it cause for me would rather have a system and 11 players who are good on both sides of the ball. It has not been good enough at all the system recruitment and the so-called style.
We are a club about balance sheets rather than clean sheets.
Yes, we sell one or two for profit but we have been sold some right **** and no I know we can't sign the best but all the stuff about "worst we will play" and all doesn't sit well.
Overall we are miles out of our depth we have changed our style from last season and achieved very little.

Re: Burnley vs brighton.
Been massive on muric being picked from game one this season but that mistake is indefensible it’s an absolute shocker.
Larsen miss in the first half is also a shocker has to score.
Foster and fofana awful, especially foster today, looked like the Foster of last season today.
Brownhill with great energy when he came on

Re: Burnley vs brighton.
So frustrating because Muric makes us play quicker, which helps us and he how dominates his box aerially, but his mistakes are just ridiculous.
The alternative is Trafford, who cannot dominate his box and and makes us worse at set pieces. That said he isn't as suicidal or calamitous as Muric.
We are a better side when Muric plays IMO, but mistakes like that have cost us too much.

I know you’re a fan of Muric but the last two games are exactly why Muric is never ever going to make it at this level. He is just a calamity waiting to happen.
Foster is a difficult one I still don’t think he’s playing his best position, we have shoe horned Fofana in and it’s detrimental to our set up. Even though he is probably our best goal
Scoring threat.

Re: Burnley vs brighton.
Some over the top comments on here, understandable though after the missed sitters and Muric's mistake. It's possible to say he made a shocking, gutting mistake today and against Everton which have lost us points, but to also be rational enough to say he's our best option and is better suited to how we play.

As much as kompany decision making hasn’t been great, the two muric errors are just a story that it’s not our Season.
I know he’s not fit but Ekdal is twice the defender O’Shea is

Re: Burnley vs brighton.
Mistakes or not since Muric has come in we’ve won 6 points in five games.
Over a season that averages out to 45.6 points , the cock up was not playing him from the start and the continuation of playing other players out of position or not playing them at all for reasons unknown.
Bensons another one that should be starting.
I’ts a shame those two mistakes happened but let’s have some balance please.

I can’t workout playing foster wide when it looked like we had finally got our premier league number 9, fofana is cute on the ball, odobert cutting in on his weak foot to, team selections again

take the absolute sitters we missed and the Muric mistake doesn't happen or really matter - every single player is culpable this season not just the two keepers.

Re: Burnley vs brighton.
All that money spent on attackers and the first sub of the game when you need a goal is jay rod, nothing against jay rod but he should not be seen as the game changer in the premier league
Re: Burnley vs brighton.
Just out of interest do we usually play pass backs inbetween our own goal posts. Now I've had time to calm down, I'm not sure we can be that angry with Muric. It's slipped under his foot which can happen, but when it's passed at pace towards your own goal it's an accident waiting to happen.
Today's goal
Everton goal
Clear foul not given v Luton
That's at least another 4 to 6 points we very probably would have got. That's ignoring any other daft errors or refereeing mistakes over the season. We really could and probably should have been safe this season. I backed kompany all the way through but you do have to wonder whether a change of manager in January would have us got us at least an extra 6 points.

Re: Burnley vs brighton.
Odobert on the right is pants. JBL has played both wings and been fine in either. So why not play Odobert on the left, where he is far more comfortable and creates more chances?
Oh yea, VK has a philosophy, “they are all footballers”. Well he got that wrong, the stubborn prick.

Anyway its not about that, fine slate the guy but we wouldn’t be on the points we have without him in the nets and that’s a fact.
Berge shouldn’t be passing into the goal either but that’s on Kompany and his tactics. O’Shea nearly scored an og doing that also.

Re: Burnley vs brighton.
In summary. - we missed at least 3 clear cut chances to get ahead and win the game
We are our on worst enemy and gifted a goal as we have done may times this year - regardless of who’s in goal
We are starting to look a better side - but as VK has said it takes times to gel.
Berge - brownhill - gudmenson - Taylor - roberts - jayrod - cork. All gone next year
Another rebuild next year - who stays and goes determines the size of the challenge.
