Burnley v Swansea MATCH Thread

[scamander]

Please Koleosho, just try to go on the outside, just once.

[Blyclaret]

Its looking very like this bunch players are just not good enough for this level.

[Commy]

Koleosho trying to grab his man again. I wish he would stop doing that.

[Shaggy]

We are stuck with Plug and Play Parkerball aren’t we. This is dreadful stuff. He won’t change anything up either.

Only a matter of time before he’s out on his ear again

[dvalley69]

We haven’t played free flowing football all season. So 3 games in 7 days isn’t an excuse.

So why you expecting free-flowing football? If it hasn't happened all season then it aint gonna happen today either.

I think he has changed slightly. We're definitely shooting and crossing more often than we have been.

Kind of underwhelming if that's it, though.

[Tricky Trevor]

I’ve been watching Burnley 62 years and 90% of that time they are unable to play a pass in front of a team mate with 30 yds of grass to run into. It goes to feet and the move is stalled instead of increasing momentum and turning defenders.

[Tricky Trevor]

Its looking very like this front 4 are just not good enough for this level.

I’ve edited that for you.

[ksrclaret]

Egan-Riley is by far and away our most progressive passer. Frequently, he's just about the only player who seems interested in passing it forwards.

There is something very, very wrong with our system and tactics.

[dermotdermot]

Tresor still absent I see.

[jedi_master]

He needs to get someone on up front, it’s drifting (again). Changing Laurent for Cullen in the 70th isn’t the impetus gain required, get Jay or Hountondji on and go two up.

[timshorts]

My sky sports+ is showing darts, which is more boring than a 0-0 with a few shots.

Yesterday, though, I went to see grimsby at Wimbledon and watched a decent game played at high tempo, lots of shots, some saves, and a bit of sumo wrestling from omar bugiel.
Not every team is trying to play pep all. Even man city have suddenly become bad at it.

[Neil]

Bit of pressure building, mainly down the right.

[Safron]

Always the opposition manager who makes subs first and freshens it up we are far too slow to make changes

[willsclarets]

we don't create too much, but it might help if we could shoot when we do get an opportunity!

[burnleymik]

What a clearance off the line by Steve.

[jedi_master]

Best chance of the game, Swansea’s. Esteve off the line.

[NickBFC]

Very nearly behind there. Make a change ffs, going nowhere as it stands.

[rosswallacefreekick]

At least Big Steve is doing the business again.

[CryerBFC]

From a Koleosho poor pass, then inability to track a runner which brownhill clearer pointed at and told him to track

[BigGaz]

Change it Parker, for the love of god

[Lip]

Trafford should have collected that.

[Safron]

Change it Parker, for the love of god

Will only change if we go behind

[expoultryboy]

Change it ya muppet .

[Milltown1882]

Koleosho is absolutely awful.

[Superjohnnyfrancis]

This is like watching Steve Cotterill ball

[ksrclaret]

Make some bloody subs you boring idiot and get 2 up front

[CryerBFC]

Head scratching subs

[jedi_master]

In what world is Humphreys for Pires an attacking change?

[Superjohnnyfrancis]

Koleosho is absolutely awful.

Sell him and foster in Jan and get some attackers in would be better.

[NickBFC]

Pires offered something going forward, baffling sub.

[Safron]

What on earth is sp doing negative subs

[ksrclaret]

Humphreys for Pires hahahaha

[Commy]

He's now scared of conceding.

[jedi_master]

Esteve with the best run into the box of any of our wingers all game. Looked a pen to me, two hands…. Maybe not on replay.

[Lip]

Never a penalty

[willsclarets]

can Flemming maybe get 15 mins in his favourite position please!

[expoultryboy]

Are we playing for 0-0 ?? Get a forward on

[BigGaz]

How Brownhill, Cullen, Anthony and Flemming are still on the pitch after this 70 mins of desolation is one of the markers why we are where we are

[CalamityClaret]

Why!!! Why on earth take an attacking fullback off for a more defensive minded one. Criminally negative. Get a striker on now !

[Milltown1882]

The contact on the goal on Thursday v the no penalty there. I just don’t understand refereeing anymore.

[rosswallacefreekick]

Please tell me we’re not playing for a draw. Those subs are baffling.

[Safron]

Sp thought process is truly baffling his tactical nouse is zero it's truly awful.

[fungus_the_bogeyman]

Pires the only player to put a decent cross in all afternoon and Parker takes him off. Mind boggling.

[Sgt. Pepper]

Not that bad a performance, it's just that with the squad we actually have available we're not really any better than most of the teams we're playing.
We're doing OK considering we don't actually have a centre forward available who Parker feels is worth playing for more than ten minutes.

[jedi_master]

FFS Anthony why shoot from there

[BigGaz]

Anthony off. Now.

[Superjohnnyfrancis]

We simply must buy a starting striker in January and play Flemming as 10

[CryerBFC]

I can’t get my head round the tactics, we lose the ball in the final third and everyone just turns round and runs back 40 yards. Like a League 1 team away at a prem side in the FA cup. Cue the ‘to a man I thought we were great’ bull sh1t that were fed after every game

[newstart]

this is a tough watch. parker is boring me to tears
