No, it was at half time but the second half was as good as anything for a while.

I’m not sure it was United fans in the stand who were making a bit of noise during the minutes silence.
I think it was those on the concourse who probably didn’t know.

Good report Tony. The reference to whingeing Klopp made me chuckle.

Yes, a good report.
It was indeed as good as anything lately in the second half, arguably as good as anything this season.
It was just a shame it took us 45 mins to wake up, they were there for the taking at the end.

But a good comeback and point, nonetheless.

Very good. The cheers for the team at the end of the match were good to hear and well deserved. I think we all walked out with a spring in our step. Pity about sime if their fans shouting out during the minutes silence. Horrible. Funny they made more noise than they ever do at their own ground.

Dood report, CT. Think the turning point for us to improve was the incredible save by Nick Pope from Cavani. We finished the first half with a little more tempo and continued it on into the second half. Well deserved point.

It was a great save. Personally I felt the turning point was when McNeil gave the ball away at one point and there was a collective groan from the crowd. It seemed to jolt the players into action immediately.

Either way, it was a much improved last 7/8 minutes of the first half that continued well into the second.

Is there any word on Cornet? Or just cramp maybe?

Only updates you ever get are at the pre-match press conferences and it will be tomorrow for the Liverpool game I expect.

Great report, I thought we had season turning points last night, Weghorst's turn, Poles point blank save but for me when the players walked off at half time and the Cricket field mainly gave a rousing chant of come on Burnley, those last few minutes of the first half when we got stuck in really gave belief.

Cornet himself says it’s nothing too bad, he just had bad cramp.

"went home with a spring in my step"

Love it, it still amazes me after all these years after "just a game", as my mother would say, can effect my mood, good and bad. I know on the match thread here by half time some were saying goodbye, can't watch anymore of this, and a few were close to cutting their throats, the change around in just the text coming were palpable from first to second half.
