Burnley v Everton - Match Day Thread

Barnes is a busted flush IMO - needs to stop looking for the free kicks and start playing football again

Another excellent save by Pope.

He thought Ben Mee was a left-back until he was forced to play him CB. Don't expect him to suddenly see things that the rest of us see.

McNeil just took the worst shot in the history of the game.

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:21 pm

Come on Burnley

RalphCoatesComb · Post by **RalphCoatesComb** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:21 pm

McNeil ?! WTF?!

Terrible from Mc Neil.

What’s happened to McNeil

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:21 pm

That’s a pity

Would have been justice if that had gone in

Barnes did one like that last week

Zlatan · Post by **Zlatan** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:23 pm

he had so much time - he could've dribbled it in from there

taio · Post by **taio** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:23 pm

Good effort and team performance.

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:23 pm

Super Burnley well done

Good point. Well played Clarets.

Cirrus_Minor · Post by **Cirrus_Minor** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:24 pm

More like ourselves today

box_of_frogs · Post by **box_of_frogs** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:24 pm

Probably a fair result. Either team could’ve won it.

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:24 pm

Could have been 3 points but Pope also made some great saves

Giftonsnoidea · Post by **Giftonsnoidea** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:24 pm

Iwobi can’t cross for toffee

jojomk1 · Post by **jojomk1** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:24 pm

Given the lack of a meaningful presence in CM a draw is just acceptable

SGr · Post by **SGr** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:24 pm

McNeil effort at the end there just sums it up at the moment: we’re performing at an ok level, winning the ball, creating the odd opportunity - but in the end it gets let down by individual errors.

Billy Balfour · Post by **Billy Balfour** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:24 pm

Decent performance. UTC.

FactualFrank · Post by **FactualFrank** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:25 pm

I didn't watch the game but stats show Everton had the better of the game?

Safron · Post by **Safron** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:25 pm

But dyches stubborness is costing Burnley possible points should not be happening he has to do what is best for Burnley FC not himself

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:25 pm

Created good chances today which is a positive

I thought the ref had a good game tbf. Let things flow instead of blowing up for every little thing that seems the norm these days.

Zlatan · Post by **Zlatan** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:25 pm

feels like 2 points dropped - they were there for the taking.

For the record, I've seen the Westwood incident again that led to their goal. It would've been soft, but I still maintain that it should've been a freekick to us (top six team get them ALL THE TIME). That said, Westwood did go down too easily and had he stayed strong, they wouldn't have scored.

Bosscat · Post by **Bosscat** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:26 pm

Benson came on and showed why he is in the squad.

Brady had a good game (not just the goal) and if he can stay fit the signs are getting better.

As Zlatan says if the Westy incident had been given it would have been soft ... but we have seen them given with VAR before

ah well

I thought McNeil and Wood were very poor today.

tarkys_ears · Post by **tarkys_ears** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:26 pm

We looked good, Everton been a fine team this season.

We could have nicked it yet it could easily have gone the other way.

No one was very poor.

I think Dale Stephens might be below benson in pecking order, from the little I’ve seen he looks a player

MT03ALG · Post by **MT03ALG** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:28 pm

Vydra had to replace Wood for us to win the game

Not the first time!

superdimitri · Post by **superdimitri** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:29 pm

Even game overall. We need to be more clinical. Against a better team we'd easily have lost today.

Ashingtonclaret46 · Post by **Ashingtonclaret46** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:29 pm

Worked hard for the point and it would have been a travesty not to have picked something up.
However, we have just seen a referee who, according to UEFA, is our number 1 ---really! Some bad decisions for both sides, however, one or two which he failed to give in our favour were ridiculous. Add to that the fact that he allowed Gomes to referee parts of the game ---number 1 ---I have seen nothing for quite some time to convince me of that fact.

Worrying thing is the management team just don’t rate him even though he makes things happen and scores!

Spijed · Post by **Spijed** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:30 pm

I think on today's showing we'll have just enough grit and determination to stop up - injuries permitting.

Giftonsnoidea · Post by **Giftonsnoidea** » Sat Dec 05, 2020 2:30 pm

At least there of plenty Everton like teams to pick up points from.
