Seeing as we finished 7th with him in the nets I’d be happy with that.

What a great bit of journalism.

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2019 12:24 pm**

Not sure why Dyche would be telling anyone.

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2019 12:27 pm**

Normaly I wouldn't believe much I see in the Daily Mail, but that item is so bristling with relevant and direct quotes from Sean Dyche that you've got to believe it. Excellent insightful journalism at its very best!

Dyche wouldn't tell anyone its paper talk "yet again"

In other news Sean Dyche is a remoaner because he wants to see Burnley back in Europe.
From our special correspondant in Brussels.

I would expect he is indeed thinking about all his players, so the article is only stating the obvious with Heaton being one of his players and having made some very very rare mistakes lately.

I fully expect Tom to be in goal against Wolves, Pope may be on the bench.

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2019 12:49 pm**

Well if he does then Tom will be off even if we stay up.

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2019 1:00 pm**

As alluded to above, I've not been expecting SD to drop Tom just yet, but he had a very poor game at Liverpool and cost us, so he's lost a bit of the credit he'd banked and needs to be careful. BUT I'm sure Hart will be gonners in the summer so Pope taking his place on the bench for the remaining games definitely wouldn't be surprise and tbh I expected it 3/4 weeks back.

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2019 1:02 pm**

It was blatantly obvious on Saturday where the changes are needed.
Can't believe changing keepers yet again will help us score more goals?

Not dissing Pope btw.

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2019 1:04 pm**

If any one is to be dropped its Tarky

Other than Tarky he should be working on how we are going to score the goals needed to beat Wolves and Cardiff

Ben Mee needs to be dropped before Tarkowski.

It’s about time he dropped the non performers , totally agree

The problem is that there isn't anybody on the bench who has proven to be any better than those who are playing (possible exception being Gibson, however it's been that long since he played regular football he could take time to get up to speed and that is something we don't have).

At the same time we are leaking goals again at an alarming rate!

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2019 1:50 pm**

Logic would be to move Pope up to bench, assuming Hart doesn't have a future here.

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2019 1:50 pm**

Not a prayer that Tom will be dropped and rightly so one bad game since he got his place back doesn't mean Dyche will drop him,can't see Pope dislodging Hart who also hasn't put a foot wrong since he was dropped

Let’s get Hart back in

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2019 5:34 pm**

I bet Pope would be offside less than Wood, play him up top alongside Crouch. Jesting aside Wolves are a massive threat from set pieces with Boli - we could do with a keeper who comes for crosses

Impressive that daily mail know what our sean is thinking....I think it sounds like bullsh1t.

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2019 6:10 pm**

although I think its needed....Toms put in a huge effort to regain his place and maybe its taken its toll...Pope has only ever had one poor game for us from memory and we have such a strong hand with keepers it would be potty not to rotate them if necessary...tom hasnt shown his true form in last couple of games so time for a rest.

I think their should be equality for everyone in the squad as performances dictate , seems Dyche has thrown this out with the bath water this season to his detriment. A few droppings here and there would certainly refocus minds I’m sure. Wolves and Bournemouth have become must win or mustn’t lose games.

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2019 7:25 pm**

Four defeats....gives manager the ability to try something different.

The same was being said on here about McNeil after the Newcastle game but he stayed in, so I highly doubt Dyche'll change goalkeeper, especially so soon after Tom got back into the England squad. Wouldn't be surprised to see the squad be shaken up a bit for Wolves though, Dyche has previously made changes after international breaks

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2019 8:14 pm**

He won’t change anything, just to pigheaded.

Nothing more than clickbait pretty much sums up modern “ journos” print anything at all you want providing it’s not offensive , racist or libel just quote” a friend of” or on this case don’t quote anything at all terrible piece

First it was all about dropping Hart for Heaton.

Now it's about dropping Heaton for Pope.

Who do we drop Pope for?

Isnt it in harts contract that he must be in the squad, if fit?

Posted: **Wed Mar 20, 2019 8:25 am**

Tom, like Hart before him has done little wrong. Changing him is only masking deficiencies elsewhere.

No problem...Name two goalies for the bench (Hart and Pope or Heaton) But don’t use Hart

Posted: **Wed Mar 20, 2019 9:47 am**

Tarkowski and Mee have been average at best this season. The weakest links in midfield don't help them though, for the vast part of the season Westwood and Cork have gone missing.

We have little or nothing to fall back on and the problem isn't the goal keepers. We need to stick with and get behind what we have, and pray we can win enough points to keep us up

Posted: **Wed Mar 20, 2019 10:39 am**

Surely it's just a case of resting Tom after his possible England performance? Pope is equal to Tom and we definitely need to keep the lad.

It was so difficult to pick between Adam and Harry in the 60's and they both stayed for a while.
