Burnley vs Plymouth - MATCH THREAD

[Safron]

Can't fathom what Hannibal is supposed to be doing has a no 10 doesn't support foster and never gets in position to shoot, maybe he is playing in his wrong position but I really struggle to see what he offers.

[criminalclaret]

Just got in the door, what's the HT summary? We pulled our pants up after Sat?

[NL Claret]

Who's the co Comms?

Don't recognise the voice and we had a lot of jocks back then...

Chris Iwelumo

[roperclaret]

Pires has been awful.

I can only think you are watching with your eyes closed

[Rick_Muller]

Pires has been awful.

Really? I thought he’s been excellent tonight

Hanibal is the knew Jeff Hendricks

Out of possession he does not give their defenders a sniff when in possession, breaks play up and shows for the ball

[Vino blanco]

We are outclassing them on a footballing level but our final ball throughout the team is poor tonight. Koloeosho is the perfect example of this, his touches and movement are great but his end product is sooo frustrating. Parker needs to work on this on the training ground quickly. Let's hope fot a couple more goals in the second half, we deserve it.

Agree
But that must be down to instructions from the manager

He needs to play wide left

I think his all round play has been good but I do agree regarding his final ball. That has been particularly poor

Just watching the halftime highlights ,he’s laid the ball across twice and Koleosho’s should have hit target he also played the ball over the top when Foster tried to chip the goalkeeper ,Koleosho is raved about but Pires has created more chances than him tonight.

[ElectroClaret]

Pires has been fine.

[Rick_Muller]

Chris Iwelumo on Sky+ but possibly Marvin Bartley on Clarets+ perhaps???

[Tribesmen]

Have to be happy with us winning ?

[JimmyRobbo]

Pires has been awful.

Go on, then, how?

I think he's looked decent.

[ecc]

Can't believe how negative some of the comments are.

[LincsWoldsClaret]

Pires and Koleosho have been the main providers - both linking well with others.

[blatherwickstattoos]

Get an early goal him the first 10 mins of the second half we will absolutely batter these.

[Tricky Trevor]

On tonights showing Anthony has been far more progressive than Luca but 75% of our attacks are down the right. They said on comms the guy playing RB for them is not a RB. Get it out left and let him run at the fella.

[Safron]

Have to be happy with us winning ?

Of course but we need to be much better in the final third, I feel sorry for foster he's so isolated in this formation

[Tricky Trevor]

Chris Iwelumo on Sky+ but possibly Marvin Bartley on Clarets+ perhaps???

Defo Marvin on Clarets+ with Phil Bird. He’s name checked him a few times. I’ve enjoyed him, very honest especially pre-game re:Eddie Howe and what he inherited.

[KateR]

Are they being u kind?

I've got the Burnley commentary for the second half now lol

[Buxtonclaret]

Reckon if they push forward & our crossing improves, we could stuff these.

[JimmyRobbo]

Nice play but not getting anyone who wants to shoot with purpose.

Humphry skies it.

[bfcmik]

Strange league the Championship. We can't get a goal past Oxford, Luton who have looked woeful this season are now two up against Oxford.

Oxford aren't playing for a nil-nil tonight. They've had 50% possession and 8 goal attempts which is the same as Luton and 7 more than they had in the whole 90+ minutes on Saturday

[JimmyRobbo]

A really bright start to 2nd 45.

[THEWELLERNUT70]

Can't believe how negative some of the comments are.

Oh I can

If we we're 6 up at halftime some would still find fault

[bfcmik]

Cov get a 2nd v Ba**ards

[Kgun5]

I've got the Burnley commentary for the second half now lol

And the audio is running ahead again.

[Longsider]

Could do with us finding the net again. Come on Burnley.

[superdimitri]

We're very composed and then the final ball is awful. Almost every move.

[BigGaz]

Hannibal has no business being a number 10 if he is not busting his knacker to get beyond foster and into the box after that good work from foster to play in Anthony.

[ElectroClaret]

Maybe time for Sarmiento to shake things up.

[Longsider]

Sunderland 2 up. Boooo

[gandhisflipflop]

Go on, then, how?

I think he's looked decent.

I’ve already said that he was far too narrow and not supporting and not supporting Anthony enough in the first half. Second half he has been much better so far, he can for me be higher and wider because Humphreys ain’t gunna do it on the other side.

[Newcastleclaret93]

Egan is a walking a calamity

[JimmyRobbo]

Luca is definitely still learning and hopefully he'll learn when to lay it off and when to push on with the ball.

We've just gone a little sloppy in the last 5 mins. Need to settle again.

[Buxtonclaret]

We need another.
Bloody hate squeaky bum time.

[JimmyRobbo]

Fair enough, I don't think it makes him awful, though.

[Longsider]

Come on yooooooooou Clarets

[Safron]

Penalty apart keeper has had one shot to save which is worrying

[Pearcey]

We need to put these to bed. COYC!

[JimmyRobbo]

We need another.
Bloody hate squeaky bum time.

Yes, absolutely.

Anything can still happen and we know that if they get a leveler then they'll shut up shop.

I still think we lack a presence up front. I can't see where goals are coming from .We were the same under VK, being fair, and that turned out OK.

[Conroysleftfoot]

Getting very sloppy

[Buxtonclaret]

What's Traff doing there.

[Newcastleclaret93]

I really want to like Mejbri but I have just got no idea what he’s supposed to offer a team that will dominate the ball.

I just don’t think this position suits him at all

[Rick_Muller]

Looking complacent now, need to freshen it up

[Longsider]

Booooo. Leeds equaliser

[gandhisflipflop]

Fair enough, I don't think it makes him awful, though.

Yeah maybe that was too strong a word. Point taken.
