Losing one nil.

Just had a message from a colleague. Walker at Centre Half in a 3-5-2.

FWIW, I heard we had a friendly before Fleetwood. Back three of Walker, Tuanzebe and Esteve. I assumed Walker right of the three, but maybe not.

Parker did say after Fleetwood it was our first game though, so maybe my info was wrong.

From the video I’ve seen, Ekdal is the central CH today. Koleosho looks central and is apparently playing really well.

Interesting. Thanks for the updates, much appreciated.

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 12:25 pm**

Id imagine Koleosho is playing on the central left in the 3-4-3 I’ve been talking about. Where he played for the Italian 21s.

I was with some Wolves fans five weeks ago today. They told me they were going to Portugal pre-season but they weren't playing any games. "You have," I told them, "You are playing us."

I'd been told about it but not head anything since so thought it might not now be happening. It obviously is.

From the training clip on X of Kyle Walker they have been playing him in a 3 at the back.

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 12:43 pm**

Can anyone remember the score in the Kompany friendly with Wolves? 4-0 loss rings a bell.

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 12:43 pm**

Have a Wolves mate watching some of the game. We’ve definitely scored one. Sent me a photo - Esteve, Pires, Anthony and what looks like Worrall on the pitch.

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 12:44 pm**

Anyone able to see who we’ve got at right wing back then if Walker is playing in the back 3?

Cheers pal. I was wondering if there would be a winger playing there as sometimes happens in this formation.

I definitely sat up when we beat Benfica, man pre-season scores are so stupid

Not had any further updates I’m afraid.

No worries, thanks pal.

Good point, I’d forgotten that game. They do throw out odd results and fitness is the aim of the game, but it’d be an interesting barometer given we’ve played them each pre-season.

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 1:17 pm**

I watched that Benfica game and thought , here we go.

Then it all went to sh1t

3-0

Ended 1-1 with JBL scoring for us

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 1:31 pm**

Finished 1-1. JBL equaliser.

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 1:31 pm**

1-1 JBL for Burnley

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 1:34 pm**

Loved JBL in 23-24, if he keeps fit he’s going to be important again

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 1:43 pm**

Excellent result. Feel JBL was such an astute signing.

Thanks to all providing updates.

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 1:47 pm**

JBL

welcome back

Was it JBL who scored for us?

Looks as if he got a hat trick from the posts.
Final score 1-1 or 3-1 to the Clarets?

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 2:02 pm**

Our Larsen scored for us and their Larsen scored for Wolves

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 2:14 pm**

Assist by Hardman according to Wolves website

Good to see Barnes get an assist.

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 2:24 pm**

Walker was centre back in the training sessions but maybe that's until Humphreys comes back then Walker may move to wing back

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 2:31 pm**

The kit looks decent!

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 2:40 pm**

I did think when we signed walker, we would go 5 at the back. Bit unsure about it, but I think we can safely say it will be that formation come spurs.

Was banel playing on the wing? Is he good enough for the first tems?

Came on at Preston in the cup and looked a mile away.

To be fair, they all looked a mile away that day

So, we hadn't gone to Portugal for a holiday after all?

Coming on with 10 minutes left and 3-0 down isn’t a great game to judge someone.

I thought the signing was strange all the same, leaving Ajax B team to be nowhere near our first team

We were to be fair, even Estève was poor that day. I appreciate it wasn’t the best way to make a debut but he looked lost.

It looks brilliant. Best in years in my opinion.

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 3:45 pm**

Kit does look good. Nice that the sponsor logo has got the blue and white elements.

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 4:03 pm**

Haven't bought a shirt for a few years but I think I will definitely have this one. I think it looks great. A kind of classic look , and not too garish

I just returned from England, there was a Father & Son at Heathrow wearing the new shirt....looked really good. I said "come on Burnley"
Wonder if they post on here?

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 6:15 pm**

Based on a video wolves have out out, looks like the first half back 5 was Roberts Walker Ekdal Delcroix Pires

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 6:19 pm**

Seems Laurent and Ramsey were in the middle and then koleosho banel and Barnes, that was for first half anyway

Posted: **Sat Jul 19, 2025 6:30 pm**

Burnley have just put Bruun larsens goal on instagram and from that video I can make out

Esteve
Hannibal
Cullen
Sonne
Edwards
Hartman
Anthony
Bruun Larsen
