Absolute bobbings. He is not a Burnley player for me there is no commitment or desire and not sure why he is labelled up as a winger as he can’t beat a man and can’t cross a ball from open play or a dead ball situation. both him and Pires to me are stealing a living. Professional footballers I don’t think so.

He has a novel way of trying to beat a man by running through them.
It rarely works.

Taffy’s daughter lives in Burnley we should give her a ring to see if she fancies a trail.

He is a 1in 4,maybe 1 in 5 game player ,good performance wise.
But not on his own in that respect,unfortunately.
Sarmiento is the same.
Koleosho has not put in a good performance since Leeds.
We need talented wingers come January or a center forward is a waste of time.
Our midfield is not tearing it up either.
We need 11 players playing at the top of their game each week.
We are not getting anywhere near

I don't think he's had a single 8 or 9 out of 10 performance all season and we are in December. Hes a solid championship option

I think he has good games and bad games, tonight was the latter, I don’t think he got passed his man defending him once.

Should have been hooked at half time.Very poor last night and showed a cba attitude when dispossessed which is totally unacceptable. Koleosho chased back 50m to win the ball back on numerous occasions.

Agree with you there ,a bit like a cricketer that’s out for 3 ducks then scores a century ,we have probably have Estève Trafford and Cullen that are fairly consistent and in that respect what can the manager do?

The fact we have Benson, Tresor, Redmond, Agyei all MIA is really starting to hurt us now
Anthony should have been off at half time. Was terrible in th first half. He looked like he's taken sleeping tablets before the game. No urgency or quality.

He’s been playing well lately, to the point it was like watching a completely different player last night. There was a moment in the first half we’d created a chance to get the ball in the box with around 6 of our players in the box (for those who say it’s ’negative’, this doesn’t stack up, but back to the point..), yet Anthony ended up scuffing his cross straight into the defender in front of him. It summed up his evening.

He's one game off one game on at the moment. Similar to Hannibal, you see lots of praise on here after one game and then he gets mauled the next. He's a useful player Anthony and he'll get a good haul of goals/assists, but he's lacking consistency.
I do think he struggles more at home, like all our attacking players, because he's receiving the ball flat and asked to do something he's not great at which is 1v1. His best games for us is where he's found space, at pace around the corners of the box. We aren't finding ways to do that at home in particular

Recently had very good impact. Also from corners. Last night, nothing, despite trying.

I really like him a whole lot less than Parker does.
First man on the teamsheet.
Never seen anyone jump out of more tackles than he does.

Antony is quite a good player, he gets in some good positions. He doesn't do much wrong but perversely he doesn't do much right.

That's because Tresor hasn't played in as many matches.

Did Tresor ever get near enough to jump out of a tackle?

I don’t like criticising our players but Anthony’s performance on Tuesday really did stand out as a total stinker. I was surprised he reappeared for the second half and it then didnt get any better. It certainly didn’t look like he’d had any kind of rocket up his backside at HT which was surely needed after such a rank first half.

Confidence player. I blame the crowd for being anxious

One bad game amongst some really good ones!
No story. Only stirring.
I would rather focus on the Cricketfield Stand 'dinging support'. Their voice and lots if the 'core Burnley supporters' disappeared on Tuesday.
That's the real issue going forward.

He’s 21. Cut the lad a bit of slack. Yes he had a mare on Tuesday but his previous performances have been good. Maybe try getting behind him rather than slaughtering him.

I can only judge from what I see on the pitch, but he does strike me as someone with a softer character - that’s not a criticism, though it doesn’t necessarily help him as a player.
He has plenty of talent, but all too often, appears to lacks the self belief and self confidence to utilise it to its full potential.
There have been plenty of players like this over the years and there will be plenty more in the future.
If he could pinch a bit of Hannibal’s attitude and self belief, he’d be a much better player.

He gets in great positions but always seems to take an extra touch and loses the ball. So many of our moves end that way.

He's been one of our more effective attacking players this season but I see him as only a moderate Championship player. In other words he's OK but no more.

This.
But given Parker's totally enamoured with him watch us activate the rumoured £10m buy option regardless.
