PNE v Burnley FA Cup matchday thread

[Goalposts]

Well a side that hasnt played together showed the weakness there.

Cullen biggest miss - followed by Hannibal and laurent

[ksrclaret]

Wow. That was absolutely horrendous.

Kompany levels of gutlessness on show.

[Overseascricketer]

Awful first half. Best we can hope for is extra time now. Kolenoshow is the most frustrating winger I’ve very seen. Gives them the ball more than their own team

[IanMcL]

Getting duffed up.

[Devils_Advocate]

Need to get Cullen and Hannibal on for Shelvey and Sarmiento

[KRBFC]

Watford 2003/Lincoln 2017 vibes

What another missed opportunity, far too many changes and a bunch of lightweight pussies chosen for a scrap.

[Milltown1882]

Can tell why most of this shower of shite don’t start in the league.

[Dyched]

Laughable. Shite.

[jedi_master]

Roberts, Laurent, Flemming on for Sonne, Shelvey and Sarmiento. Please.

Edwards only to come on for the last 20/30 if we have pulled one back otherwise little point.

[Claretincraven]

Need to get Cullen and Hannibal on for Shelvey and Sarmiento

Bore off

[Devils_Advocate]

Done miles more than Benson still

[Woody9229]

Such a frustrating first half but someone tell the commentators that 3/5ths of our famous defence aren’t playing!!!

[IanMcL]

3 goals for us 2nd half....and some muscle on.

[billyhamilton82]

Gives first half against Wednesday vibes. Only difference we managed to get in at HT 1-0 somehow

The only difference is its a totally different side

Ridiculous comment

[agreenwood]

I’ve been impressed with Parker for a few months now, but playing that midfield (including the wingers) against one of the most physical sides in the league, was always going to be risky.

[Stonehouse]

Cheer up guys Bastards are down to 7th .

[CryerBFC]

Worst thing is he’s probably been our best chance of a goal. Which shows the level of the rest of them

[NickBFC]

Clear to see a number of these players aren't good enough to warrant a starting place. Some are more questionable than others.

[Goliath]

The idea that Worrall is a better player than Ekdal is almost laughable.

Also, it seems really poor that a player accused of racist abuse weeks ago is allowed to play and celebrate like that whilst being lauded by his own fans, whilst the player who was abused is not able to play in case of a reaction. It's absolutely ridiculous that it has been dealt with before today and this situation has been allowed to occur.

[jedi_master]

Very true - Koleosho has played well though, in my opinion.

[Goalposts]

Basically back line is looking weak this game Egan - roberts - humphries being badly missed

[KRBFC]

Koleosho has been the one and only bright spark in attack for me.

[dsr]

If we want to win, then we need another forward with Foster. Either Barnes or Flemming for Sarmiento.

If we don't want to win, on the other hand ...

[CoolClaret]

.... and for all those th at love to slate Laurent all the time, that is exactly why he's playing over Shelvey.

Hladky - we need a better #2, he's been caught flat footed in every game he's played for us.

Worrall - stuck in the mud. Could perhaps play in a low block but not what we need.

Sarmiento - how many chances? Powderpuff, ineffective footballer.

[agreenwood]

Worrall £6m? Had our pants pulled down.

Osmajic runs off Sonne for the goal, not Worral.

[Vegas Claret]

The lack of intensity from those that likely think they should be in the side is laughable.

If he ends up being banned it’s really a disgrace. Poor from Heckingottom.

Hannibal is able play

[BurnleyFC]

Laughable how asleep Worrall was for their second goal.

Sunday league defending.

[Enola Gay]

You could substitute just about anyone and they wouldn’t be able to complain.

Keeper unconvincing at best. Defence all over the place. Midfield a turgid mess. Wingers and striker invisible.

As against Lincoln, looks like a team believing its own press and it’s going to take a quantum leap in performance to get anything out of this. Light years away from good enough.

[Vino blanco]

Terrible team selection. We're playing with one midfielder in Shelvey and and a load of light weight fancy dancers in front of him (Koleosho, Sarimiemto, Benny). They've hit us hard and scared us to death.

[beddie]

Shellvey is not the answer, his legs have gone. We’re totally unbalanced in midfield. Sonne isn’t Robert’s either. Totally wrong selection all over the pitch.

[AfloatinClaret]

That free kick was in a perfect position for Robbie Brady, you could see it coming, a cracking strike. Less said about their second the better

[TheOriginalLongsider]

Edwards is the answer

[agreenwood]

Laughable how asleep Worrall was for their second goal.

Sunday league defending.

..and again, he runs off Sonne, not Worral.

[jojomk1]

A defense in which only Esteve seem to know what he is doing
No midfield
Nothing up front
Other than that we haven't been too bad

[Walkerpool]

Playing like individuals not a team

[Vegas Claret]

Hladky - we need a better #2, he's been caught flat footed in every game he's played for us.

have to agree sadly, he is likely a decent keeper but no more than that

[The Shire Claret]

Gonna be good to see us trying and get 2 goals back … it’s not happened this season

[THEWELLERNUT70]

That second goal is a shambles of a goal to give away. From the crap header by Esteve to Brownhill who in turn played a pathetic pass to a Preston players face, the shambolic tracking back of Koleosho and the ball watching of Worral

Pathetic and it's probably done for us today

[CryerBFC]

The only difference is its a totally different side

Ridiculous comment

Emphasis on the vibes. Don’t need the same squad to have a poor start like that, not getting second balls etc.

[jlup1980]

I'd be tempted to make 5 changes if we have any interest in staying in the competition.

Hladky
Sonne EJ Esteve Pires
Brownhill Laurent
Edwards Flemming Koleosho
Barnes

[FCBurnley]

Leave team well alone. No subs. Don’t want to risk any injuries. League is massively more important than today as was proved by our team selection

[Clive 1960]

reminds me of Watford under Stan..

[KRBFC]

The idea that Worrall is a better player than Ekdal is almost laughable.

There is absolutely no chance Worrall is better than Ekdal, Ekdal never looked threatened at this level, always in control, he just lacked pace for the PL in a high line.

[jedi_master]

It’s amazing to me that Ipswich got up automatically with Hladky playing every game.

[Enola Gay]

Osmajic has been found guilty of nothing and PNE can play him if they like. It’s then up to us to deal with him and so far we haven’t. It’s not Heckinbottom’s fault Worrall turns like milk.

[beddie]

Worrals too slow, he needs changing for CJ.

[BurnleyFC]

..and again, he runs off Sonne, not Worral.

He does, but Worrall is ridiculously slow to react.

Shite from both of them, but if a central striker runs in and scores from that position, I’d be expecting the nearest centre half to actually track him.

[Lu-tze]

Absolutely disgraceful set of circumstances that the lad who’s been racially abused who would be perfect for a game like this has been left out presumably for his own good and the sh!t that did it plays and then behaves like that.
Shows the gulf in class between Parker and Heckingbottom.
