Just so

Sadly, we are simply not used to playing against players with the pace and power of Rashford.

I suspect this is why many of us prefer the Championship to the prem because there are too many games at that level which are essentially ‘dead rubbers’ so to speak.

What a sitter. Lovely ball from JBG

As funny as your spelling and grammar?

I do enjoy an occasional visit from the grammar police. But I’d rather Churlinov popped that in the back of the net.

How does he miss that.

Can't afford to miss these good chances

Sublime pass from JBG. Darko should be burying that.

Another chance now, this time for Barnes

JohnDearyMe · Post by **JohnDearyMe** » Wed Dec 21, 2022 9:28 pm

Two shocking finishes. Can't afford to do that against teams like this

Damned commentator correct - have to take our chances

Negative **** play from all involved.

It's almost as if the Dyche aura from sitting in the studio with the douchebag Neville is having its usual effect on proceedings.

It's almost like we're playing away at Old Trafford against a side with Rashford, Fernandes and Eriksen. You're a negative fkn idiot tho

If we could take our chances.... We are creating them, bit we have to do better against higher level opposition.

We're creating good chances though. The time to worry is when you're not creating anything.

4:20 · Post by **4:20** » Wed Dec 21, 2022 9:30 pm

two massive chances. Gutted not to get back into it. Keep plugging away Clarets.

Superjohnnyfrancis · Post by **Superjohnnyfrancis** » Wed Dec 21, 2022 9:30 pm

Hope we’ve got £60m to spend if we go up

tarkys_ears · Post by **tarkys_ears** » Wed Dec 21, 2022 9:31 pm

I suppose it's always easier for the ill-informed, low achieving fan to point out why we should be losing (usually the other teams money) Vs as actual thought out point of what we should be doing to win?

**** me it's as if the man utd game in 2010 never happened... And every subsequent win since then since we've been pretty much ******* broke compared to nearly every team we've played since our PL days....

We've had our chances to get back into this game, but if you don't take them at this level...you lose.
Brave effort but the gulf in class in very much apparent.

Cork and Brownhill a split second too slow at this level

Only problem I have is Benson injury

Not to even get one of them on target is pretty poor. Shame as it would have put them under some pressure

If you're expecting a Championship club to go away to Old Trafford against the likes of Fernandez, Casemiro, Eriksen, Rashford etc and win, you're an absolute idiot.

Na not really. United love teams doing what we do, the counter attack is there biggest strength and has been for a little while.

We are missing some of our quick players aren’t we?

Tella, Zaroury…

Maatsen has matched Rashford for pace. Roberts done quite well too v Garnacho.

I know their team is worth about a billion.

I’m just saying that to stay out of the bottom three if/when we go up.

We need a midfielder that doesn’t keep giving the ball away for a start. Seems he has a free pass for that

You really are very funny, even funnier is you don’t know why. I would say its easier for those who don’t understand the intricacies of the game to resort your repartee. But hey ho . We all have an opinion only difference is the degree to which the opinion is informed , rational, thoughtful. I see no reason why you cant aspire to that how ever many years it may take…

Barnes playing well.

Newcastleclaret93 · Post by **Newcastleclaret93** » Wed Dec 21, 2022 9:39 pm

Brownhill has really really struggled tonight. Would like Twine to come on in that number 10 role to see what he offers

Scott Twine coming on
