Yeah.
Seems to me at the moment that VK is throwing names in the air and seeing where they land.

Or he’s looking at the oppo and the players in training (that are fit) and attempting to select specifically for that game maybe.

Let's hope we get a goal or two before they test our dodgy keeper

Muric is never getting back in the team is he?

He’s an injury/suspension from taking the gloves

That starting 11 reminds me of something Couple would put out in our first PL season

4 wingers on the bench!

Bruun Larsen should have been starting. The problem is they mostly offer the same thing, so why have four of them sat there, no way they all get on.

ClaretPete001 · Post by **ClaretPete001** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 2:53 pm

I cannot see that team winning, which means we probably will.

Larsen has actually offered something different - a goal

Can you describe a player honestly supporting them? Or do we have to lie about them all.
Let me guess you've never called a Burnley player in your whole life supporting them?

ksrclaret · Post by **ksrclaret** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 2:59 pm

I'd absolutely have started Larsen today who I've been really impressed by, especially after Tresor's horror show against Chelsea.

Let's hope Tresor is ready to show what he's about today.

First time I’ve ever had my wallet emptied by a steward on entry into football. Apparently it’s a “condition of entry” that they can take you wallet and take stuff out. Looking for drugs apparently, but still, would rather they didn’t drop a keepsake from my late father on the floor and stand on it and almost ruining it.

What has the world come to FFS

Good grief. They forget you are a paying customer and deserve to be treated like one.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 3:00 pm

Some holes in Brentfords defence through injury and suspension, as well as ours, so lets take the game to them.

Shaggy · Post by **Shaggy** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 3:00 pm

We look weak at the back. Our *cough* keeper will be picking the ball out of the net at least once i suspect.

Hope we can put score them.

jos · Post by **jos** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 3:00 pm

I’m guessing Benson is still injured.

Might help playing him on the left, which seems to be his preferred position, alongside a more central role.

I’m wondering if Kompany is still easing Larsen into game time. Don’t forget he’s had a horrible time with injuries over recent years. Like you say he’s been impressive in most cameos.

When I saw the line-up I assumed Tresor on the right and Odobert on the left again.

Bench looks stronger than starting eleven. On paper that team looks like it could be overrun quite easily. Don’t like Trafford in goal O Shea looks weakest CB so far and Berg looks far better further forward with Brownhill further back. Another odd selection.

claretburns · Post by **claretburns** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 3:08 pm

Didn't know we had signed Lyle Taylor during the international break.

Offside saves us. Trafford flapping all over the place.

Goal ruled out but Traff looking like he’s been plucked out of the stands to play in net.

Looking at the replay looks like we got away with one there.

Not suggesting that’s where he is playing, more that it seems to be his preferred side.

Lovely by Amdouni. Great run by Foster and Tresor went close.

Close from Tresor after good play from FOSTER (not bloody Taylor, commentator doing my head in!!!)

Good goal by Brentford chalked off then we come close to taking the lead. But our start has been awful
