First scorer? Only rule is you can't go for someone who's already been picked from another poster.

I fancy Sheffield United to go 1-0 up, so going to have a punt on Norwood.

Norwood

Norwood for me

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 7:33 pm**

I fancy Norwood. To score first may i add

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 7:33 pm**

Whilst Aubemeyang is bang in form, i'm going leftfield and going for Norwood.

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 7:36 pm**

All those who have mentioned Norwood, owe me £50 if he scores first

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 7:55 pm**

Changed my mind - going for Aubemeyang.

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 8:05 pm**

Norwood, ..... My money is as safe as houses

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 8:30 pm**

Well - I got the Sheffield United going 1-0 up right.

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 8:31 pm**

They look decent so far

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 8:37 pm**

If that is not a penalty, how the hell was Chris Wood's goal a trip? There is contact minimal as it is. Nonesense. There was more contact there then on Evans.

Will somebody educate me?
Why do players line up in a line from the edge of the area, through the pen spot, to the 6yd line?
If you line up for the flight of the ball you have two or three players who have a chance of getting on it. T’other way you only have one and the taker has to have his length perfect.
How many times does it sail over everyone in the box.

For a free-kick or corner. Attacking team or defending team?

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 9:08 pm**

If the small touch on the Arsenal forward is deemed to not be a foul why on earth was Chris Woods even smaller contact given as a foul?
(I know I should let Saturday's game go by now, but the inconsistency irritates me - even though VAR was not involved this time).

That was some stat then. Sheffield not lost a game where they’ve been leading at half time since 2014. It’s almost unbelievable

Because the decision on Chris Wood was a monumental cock-up. There’s no point comparing it to decisions in other games where clear fouls aren’t penalised because you’ll be spending most of your life doing it.

You're right Rileybobs, I'll have to relax and let it go now.

Corners but to a lesser extent FKs.
Arsenal totally blew one just before HT but I see it from most teams so there must be some coaches corner thinking behind it.

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 9:20 pm**

Currently on 62 mins. I've neve seen such a poor Arsenal team, shame we're not playing them on Saturday.

I’ve not been as incensed by a decision in some time. It’s far easier to take a referee or assistant making a mistake than getting a decision so wrong with the use of technology.

They’re poor. The difference when we played them was that they had Aubameyang. Wouldn’t surprise me if he popped up with a goal out of nowhere to rescue a point here.

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 9:25 pm**

I have tuned in for 2nd half. Arsenal looked like they must be 4 up, as they spent 5 mins messing around at the back, going nowhere.

Then I spotted the score!

If Dier is Spurs, then Dire is Arsenal!

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 9:28 pm**

More crazy stats

Arsenal haven’t won a Premier League away game they’ve been losing at half time since 2011.

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 9:29 pm**

Sounds like a betfest!

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 9:33 pm**

Is Pepe the biggest waste of £72m in history?

BTW we had Almiron make his excellent debut against us and he’s done nothing since and Ceballos was excellent against us and hasn’t had another good game.

That’s why I’m still so angry about it

Beating Arsenal is the least Burnley-like thing you can do.

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 9:40 pm**

Make of it what you will, but there was a big discussion on talksport today about VAR, and all the incidents with it from the weekend.

Ours wasn't even mentioned!

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 9:40 pm**

That's what I mean, Arse will score in injury time.

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 9:53 pm**

Very poor from the gunners

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 9:55 pm**

Wenger will be sitting by his phone!!!

If there is a richer man than theroyaldyche's bookie I'd love to meet him

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 9:59 pm**

4th spot up for grabs this season! Can we pull off a miracle????

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 10:01 pm**

I need to bet more.

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 10:07 pm**

Tricky Trevor, guess you’re talking zonal in which case that will be decide on the training ground and maybe tweaked in the dressing room. The beauty of that for a attacking team is that you can tactically flood an area or base your dead ball attacks accordingly.

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 10:15 pm**

Arsenal were dire when I tuned in and faded as the match went on!

Not an ounce of urgency in any of them. Horrendous.

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 10:18 pm**

I remember a few years back I hated any away game and dreaded most teams, minus Liverpool & City I feel fairly relaxed about any team in this league, home or away

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 10:19 pm**

Arsenal manager thinks they should not have lost!!!
There lies the problem.

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 10:22 pm**

I hate how they wheel out the winning manager and try and ascertain just how did they beat the mighty Arsenal.

Same when we beat Chelsea or Man UTD in the 09/10 season, as though how dare we beat these teams.

Posted: **Mon Oct 21, 2019 10:25 pm**

Sheff United played very well.
He’s a good manager and very similar to Burnley they all know their roles and the system he wants to play.
Really pleased for Norwood - local lad who loves playing and has worked really hard to get where he is. He’s had plenty of ups and downs in his career but always worked hard.

Will be interesting when we play them - their defensive record is excellent. Will be a tough game for us.
