I assume you will all agree to letting Russian clubs and fans come then?

Pace will sack him if results don't improve. Be in no doubt about that.

Bad performance that.

Doubt Parker will last until Christmas. Utter rubbish.

What we are seeing is exactly what Fulham and Bournemouth fans warned us of. Good Championship manager, devoid of attacking solutions in the Premier ultimately leading to relegation. It should come as no surprise....

You were banging this weird Kompany drum after the last game. Give it a rest pal and get behind the team.

Impressive memory

Exeterclaret

Starting to think we will end up with less points than 2 years ago. Suppose we had a better coach then.

Exeterclaret

At least we tried to play football under Kompany

Exeterclaret

Crap from us obviously but fair play to Cardiff that was a good goal

Lovely to have a keeper focused on keeping the ball out of the net. Quite old fashioned i know

He's actually quite good with his feet too. Newcastle fans were saying Pope's the better shot stopper but Dubravka has the better distribution.

Exeterclaret

Not sure I take Dyche's word for Gospel on anything. Decent enough player that will do a job at Championship level for someone.

Exeterclaret

Bayern 3-0 in the first half and dominating under the useless Kompany

Exeterclaret

Deal of the century. No idea how Espanyol have pulled this one off.

Exeterclaret

I’ve read reports suggesting Guardiola will be changing City’s formula quite a bit next season; much more direct, to counter the passing style that has become the norm and he feels they need something new as other clubs learn to counter his tactics. It's been pretty common for Ederson to play long ...

JBL only played 15 games since leaving.

Berge, wouldn’t have him back as he couldn’t get out of the club quick enough last summer.

It's 15 games since joing Stuttgart in Jan. He played 12 times for Hoffenheim also last season. 27 games in a BL season is the vast majority of games.

I'm also amazed that they trained there, given that the Gawthorpe training ground had already been built in 1955. Ah well, it makes good viewing

Couldn’t agree more. The style of play in the premier league bores me to tears. I’m confident that Parker will be more akin to Dyche than Kompany though. Play to our strengths. Be resilient. Organised and aggressive. Inter play a style of football that I prefer over the likes of city. All about opi...

Exeterclaret

I like both Kompany and Parker. Differing styles but they both coach a team to play it on the floor.

Not the biggest fan of Dyche, didn't like his style and wanted him gone a lot sooner.

Exeterclaret

Glad the best song one. Would have hated to see Israel win it.

Exeterclaret

We replaced him with a far better manager and he seems to struggle to deal with that

10 years of Playstations funded by good honest taxpayers that's exactly what we don't need!

Have you seen what prisons are like in Norway? I wouldn't bother looking if I were you mate. Gotta watch the blood pressure.

Exeterclaret

I think Dyche comes across really petty and bitter here. As he often increasingly does unfortunately.

Exeterclaret

I suspect if he was holding a different flag or protesting a different cause many on here would be lauding him. Peacefully protesting ethnic cleansing? Fair play, I say.

If Kompany does the unthinkable and wins the Bundesliga / Champions League double will that make him the greatest manager to ever have managed Burnley FC?

The majority on here would still say he's crap. He clearly isn't though,

Exeterclaret

It's better when it's at one end. The Nordwestkurve at Eintracht has some belters, and it's all organised by the fan clubs in that end with no club involvement. Much more organic. The atmosphere is miles better than anything in the UK where people react to a goal and that's it. It's very true. In G...

Does anyone remember his goal against Forest at home in maybe the 08/09 season? Gets a yard on his man with a couple of stepovers and curls it top corner. Think that might be up there with his best.

Exeterclaret

Decent ageing pro. We've got a lot better and younger in the squad and out on loan though.

Exeterclaret

I actually think he's quite similar to Keane. Both good defenders with a tall lanky physique and a turn of pace but neither are particularly good on the ball. Remember Keane hoofing it forward a lot without a great deal of direction, partially may have been direction from our erstwhile incumbent man...

Is it me or Sarmiento utter rubbish? Foster's come good second half though.

Even if we wanted him he wouldnt come, he alongside Assingnon (Sp?) were who's agents said wouldnt play again after Spurs game

I don't think that's true. Assignon started the next game (Forest, final game of the season) and Fofana was on the bench.

Fair point.

I can’t imagine Parker ever losing the plot like
Kompany did, however none of us know how pressure affects someone until they’re under it and filmed for our displeasure

I can. Happened at Bournemouth.

Exeterclaret

The welcome with Ashley Barnes was very good. All the seniors loved him, as did Alan Pace. Makes you wonder why he let Kompany let him go. Or we'd just been promoted to the Premier League and he wasn't nearly up to the required standard. That's not to say the others we signed were, but still doesn'...

What's that based upon. Worrall and Egan both have the exact same weakness that Ekdal has surely but without the same technical ability?

I think it's probably a bias towards players that have played a lot of English football

Kompany was legend in his own mind, and there were a number of players and staff who absolutely hated him.

Got any evidence for that or is it made up rubbish like most stuff about Kompany?

Somebody above, I can’t be bothered checking, called him a good socialist. There are no good socialists. He was a good man though. I thought he was strong, funny and definitely had some fight in him. He had every right to clock the bloke who egged him.

Why are there no good socialists?

Yes he did because Young is a steady pro who offers something even now at that level

Problem is Dyche is too fond of his steady pros.

When has a relegated Premier League team ever had a massive turnover of players, and a new manager, gone on to romp the championship the following season? Well theres's obviously one recent example we'd all be very familiar with. Difference is, however, they didn't have 2 and bit days to assemble m...

And hopefully a hell of a sight longer before we suffer the absolute dross that was served up last season, please God never.

Might be controversial but I thought the turgid stuff toward the end of Dyche's tenure was as bad if not worse.
