Not seen anything so far that worries me immensely about next year, if we go up.
Sure, we need to improve in some areas but not hugely

You’re right. The things (simple mistakes) we get away with most weeks are punished at this level. With the greatest respectNewcastleclaret93 wrote: ↑Wed Dec 21, 2022 8:31 pmGoing from watching championship football week in week out you really see the difference in quality against prem teams.
They are just quicker, fitter and better technical players than anything we have faced this year.
We have looked quite good so far without offering too much in the final third

Yep very true. It’s the physicality and the pace at this level you just don’t realise until you watch championship footballbox_of_frogs wrote: ↑Wed Dec 21, 2022 8:34 pmYou’re right.

Re: Man Utd v Burnley match thread
I think we are learning about the reduced time on the ball you are afforded at this level.

Nearly a question of sport moment from Dubravka!
Re: Man Utd v Burnley match thread
Benson finally getting some space in the last 10 and looking dangerous.
Shame we don’t have the same kind of threat on the other wing.

Re: Man Utd v Burnley match thread
I knew today would be a good litmus test.
We have not been super sharp on our passing and Man U are certainly exposing it...
Benson certainly causing problems.

Would love to see Twine get 45 mins.
Re: Man Utd v Burnley match thread
Still think there’s a goal in us yet, just have to keep them to one and we’ll be okay.
Re: Man Utd v Burnley match thread
Pleased with that performance so far. Certainly don’t look out of place against a strong United 11. We are missing several key men tonight too. Like to see Twine / Churl / Jay in the second.

Re: Man Utd v Burnley match thread
We've done well, nothing to be sorry for
Been undone by a quality cross and finish but apart from that we've been mostly good and had a few chances of our own.
Our possession style hasn't been found wanting unlike Coyle:s "toe to toe" approach.
BPF more than holding his own and probably questioning why he's not first choice
Much to be positive about

Re: Man Utd v Burnley match thread
Interesting to see which players don’t look out of place. So far Maatsen and Benson looking good.
