Looked like Browny was there but for the massive bounce.

Appears to be very little movement in front of goal?
There's a lack of inventiveness from midfield up to the
front. We're not making any inroads against their back line at all.

So much entitlement in the stands nowadays. Moaning and groaning and negative atmospheres literally every game this season. No surprise our away form is better when we drag the players down every home game

Luca looked nice on the ball until the shot.

I thought Anhony came inside and left him with little option.

Entitlement to be dominating, successful and entertaining every minute of every game. It’s not a hard concept to understand for most.

Bah! I agree there are some who are always negative, but even moderate posters are going to call it as they see it. The passing today has been unacceptable.

I still think we'll win, and im not upset at our position. Its just hard not to get frustrated from all the waste.

This is exactly a game where a dominant central attacking #9 will score goals. Their centre of defence is weak.

I think we're playing to their strengths. Having said that, a much better final ball from LK, there.

I’m talking about the atmosphere at Turf Moor. Most clubs have negative murmurs when it’s going badly. Every home game from minute 1 you hear the negativity nowadays

That's fair.

Being from Buffalo, NY, I've only been able to attend one game. One gorgeous, sunny day when we beat Norwich 2-0.

No one was complaining that day, lol.

We have better players on the bench today. Admittedly they needed a rest, but we have the tools to pry these open, so long as we don't leave it too long to make them.

We’ve got one of if not the most expensive assembled squad in the league. You’d expect them to be able to create chances other than 30 yard strikes that are going 10 yards wide or high, or both.

I promise it wasn’t always this negative in the ground. I think we were spoilt under Kompany in his first season and now anything less than that (I.e 99.9% of our history) is now not good enough and doesn’t deserve backing from the stands unfortunately.

Not every season is going to be like Kompany’s first. Moaning at the players from the stands at 0-0 isn’t going to improve our chances of winning.

I think it's that the football is dire. Burnley fans, as a rule, do not enjoy this pointless passing it around in our third. 70% possession and virtually nothing attacking wise is frustrating many. I myself find it tedious and turgid.
