How is it inaccurate? We’ve shipped 13 goals in 3 away games and it should’ve been more, we should’ve been 3 down at half time at Old Trafford. The solid foundations have been thrown away, we’re now playing some bizarre 5 at the back with square pegs in round holes. The defence looks completely los...

Sad news.

He was also in the infamous prison film 'Sc*m' many years ago now. RIP.

I think his point was based around not seeing us keeping enough clean sheets and needing a minimum of 2 goals.

Exactly. Common sense really.

Exact same script eerily almost identical, faith was held on some of a upturn but nothing positive happened. But then wood had left & some sort of misguided resurgence on the scoring front was left to WW. I don't need to say anymore good evening. How often did Wood and Weghorst play for Kompany, ab...

Indeed , and typically being jumped on by holier-than-thou types exclaiming that fans have no right to know “personal details” about a player. But it’s just downright weird and I can’t understand any Burnley fan wanting to know what is going on. Rightly or wrongly, maybe Parker just doesn't rate hi...

Out if interest when was the last time a defender scored 2 own goals?????

For us I'm not sure, but Craig Dawson was the last PL defender to do it, late last year.

It appears Ekdal has been filed with Muric as one who can’t be critiqued.

I'd say the same of Esteve, who obviously has a lot of credit in the bank after last season, but he doesn't look a top rate PL defender on the evidence so far.

fidelcastro

It felt like the subs at the end were compulsory or something.

What was the point?

25-8 to city in 8 Premier League games at the Ethiad

I know City are good and they're owned by a country blah, blah, blah, but has it become psychological that we'll get hammered there now?

We don't seem to struggle quite as much against the other top sides.

I think we’ve seen enough now to accept that Ekdal isn’t going to be a long term solution at Centre back if we want to stay in the premier league.

Not if Esteve keeps getting in his way, no.

fidelcastro

Fair play to those who went today. I gave it a swerve as I could have predicted that scoreline.

fidelcastro

Towel thrown in during those last few minutes, which is unacceptable, regardless of the opposition!

Yeah, I think so. Shouldn't you always be proud of your day's work ?

Or is that an old concept ?

I'm sure they are proud, just not as proud as if they beat a title rival.

fidelcastro

Pretty pointless subs at this stage.

Do you think that City will be proud of their days work ?

Must be very hollow for both players and fans. No sense of achievement, no pride and no surprise.

Wouldn't really entice me.

Do they need to be that proud, as long as they win?

Serious questions need to be asked as to wtf is going on with Tresor.

We've been saying that for over a year!

It could still be the usual five goals yet.

I hate it when we play City!

fidelcastro

Two own goals from Esteve?

Not sure I've seen that from a Burnley player before.

Can't get that one to load. I did have Spanish commentary for a while on fawa, but now the demons are back.

Mind you, they're still easier to understand than IanMcL's posts on the match thread!

Call me mad, but we've got a chance with Rodri missing out.

Ever since Pep joined City, they tend to be a touch more 'vulnerable' when they don't play a dominant DM

I'm not sure they'll need one today.

I'm only 3 posts in that's jumping the gun. A plethora of irrefutable evidence exists regarding masks backed up with convincing data I'm inclined to sway that way. I'll park it there before this fictional derailing does actually happen. Good evening. I'll look out for you in that mask. Good evening.

You do know that many 'experts' also claimed that mask wearing was a waste of time, right? Not just little old me.

Anyway, if you wouldn't hijack and ruin another thread like you usually do, I'm sure we'd all be grateful.

Hi fidel, last couple of years I've got to know a guy who was the announcer at West Ham. (We play walking football together). He tells the story of a game some years ago, while he was doing his pre-match prep, of a smartly dressed guy coming to the door of his "announcer's booth." West Ham were pla...

99% might be over the top, but he does get a positive response to his requests.

Not to his pronunciation of names he doesn't.

I'm all for equal opportunities, but to let someone with dyslexia have a role like this is a step too far in my opinion.
