Sheffield United well on top here. Gaps in our lines being badly exploited.

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Sat Nov 02, 2019 3:14 pm

If United had a decent striker we would losing this game already. Luckily they don't.

Because the officials are an absolute joke.

VAR is proving to be just as fallible as those operating it. Rather like a Referee, but with the can kicked on down the line.

FFS 1 Down

And there’s the first goal. Thoroughly deserved and not remotely surprising.

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Sat Nov 02, 2019 3:17 pm

It was coming, we really need to get it together.

Both of their lads in the box had all the time in the world. That was awful.

We're being played at our own game today and it's working.

I'm calling this as a Dyche error today, it was time to change the team.
Hey ho

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sat Nov 02, 2019 3:19 pm

Too easy for Sheffield U. Waste of time playing Hendrick wide right. He is simply not in the game. Getting over run in midfield

FactualFrank · Post by **FactualFrank** » Sat Nov 02, 2019 3:19 pm

I'm sure I'm not alone in having had a bad feeling about this game

Going to give it more time, but I fear you may be correct.

A very well taken goal. Pope had no chance.

SGr · Post by **SGr** » Sat Nov 02, 2019 3:20 pm

Reminds me of Swansea in 2017 this. About 3 miles between the lines, easy to exploit, minimal pressing, but at the same time awful defending.

Awful football.

Hey ho

the error is resorting to aimless hoofball like the beginning of last season, we haven't strung 10 passes together yet - we've proved when we pass it time and time again we can hurt teams. This hoofball stuff is pointless

NL Claret · Post by **NL Claret** » Sat Nov 02, 2019 3:21 pm

Watched Sheff U v Arsenal and they looked a decent side. Believe they were decent v Liverppol too. They are no mugs.

A lot of drama queens and experts on this thread this afternoon.

That is all.

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sat Nov 02, 2019 3:22 pm

Our long balls forward are ok when Wood plays.

We have been cr@p so far and are getting our just desserts.

And Lowton, Lowton can eff off. Yet again their goal comes from his side due to him being out of position and not tracking his man

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Nov 02, 2019 3:22 pm

and every result so far is a bad one for us today

Taylor, Wood + fit Drinkwater will hopefully come sooner rather than later.

Can't rely on other results we have to do the business on the park first and foremost.

Lack of technical ability, which is why SD prefers direct play up to Wood/Barnes, when Wood is in.

Not sure, I think we have played some really good passing football in games this season, today though the ball seems to be a hot potato. Hopefully we grow into it.

Unreal. Arm out. Ball hits arm stops ball going to barnes. Var is killing game

Var referees have decided to have a late lunch and come in for the second half.
