Suprised Twine is on the bench

Happy he's fit enough to maybe have an influence. Big things expected of this lad

Is Costelloe a striker?

Belgianclaret · Post by **Belgianclaret** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 7:12 pm

Barnes will bruise them, Twine will confuse them

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 7:13 pm

Weird one with Costelloe he didn’t have a squad number announced yesterday.

Hes slipped into his usual position- injured

Having a scan on something earlier, don’t know how serious

Elizabeth · Post by **Elizabeth** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 7:14 pm

You never know we might get a penalty and Barnes will score

clarethomer · Post by **clarethomer** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 7:14 pm

BPF could be off now if he’s seen as no2.

Not end of world but may be another keeper required soon.

Started left midfield, scored plenty of goals when put up front.

I am getting really excited by this.

This is so odd. Absolutely no idea what to expect here. Exciting times... Hopefully!

Colburn_Claret · Post by **Colburn_Claret** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 7:21 pm

Pre match nerves kicking in.
I haven't got a clue what to expect tonight anything from 4-0 to 0-4 is possible. I know I'd be happy with a point and a good performance.

Don't forget it will take time for these lads to gel into a team, so patience, and to all you lucky Clarets at the game, RAISE THE ROOF.

COME ON YOU CLARRREETTTTTTSSSS

Can anybody work out the formation ?

Kompany came across well there on Sky

I know " Madge " has acquired super-model status, and probably doesn't get out of bed for less than £10,000 but is she interested in Championship football, or is she still lazing on a Yacht in the Mediterranean ?

Lowton injured? Or Vintinho chosen over him?

Suspended.

Lowton suspended for Villa red

maidenover · Post by **maidenover** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 7:30 pm

Lowton suspended for 3 games.

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 7:30 pm

Yes, of course forgot about that. Ridiculous red.

Wonder how Taylor does at CB. Excitement building...

CrosspoolClarets · Post by **CrosspoolClarets** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 7:31 pm

The absence of Jay is a massive blow. You look at the main strikers for rivals, e.g. Sharp at Sheff Utd, and Jay is younger and better.

derryclaret · Post by **derryclaret** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 7:31 pm

Evening all, sunny day given way to rain, cannot wait for this to start, not a baldy notion how it's going to go but it doesn't matter, there's a real buzz about this season, bring it on!UTC

BurnleyFC · Post by **BurnleyFC** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 7:33 pm

Lacking creativity in midfield for me. I hope I’m wrong, though.

Come on you Clarets!

Really? think Brownhill and Bastien should be able to create for us.

I’d have liked to have seen Twine start, really get at them.

spt_claret · Post by **spt_claret** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 7:37 pm

I can safely say I would never have predicted that lineup.

Taylor at CB, no Jay, Long MIA, Costelloe starting, Twin on bench I presume no fit, Cornet nowhere to be seen. It's definitely got the surprise factor.

clarethomer · Post by **clarethomer** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 7:40 pm

Think one of the local journos had called Taylor at CB

Belgianclaret · Post by **Belgianclaret** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 7:41 pm

Glad to see super Michael Jackson involved in the warm up on the pitch

Not played the last two friendlies and was on light training sessions in Portugal. I take it he’s not match ready like the others. Will get on from the bench you’d imagine.

Gordaleman · Post by **Gordaleman** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 7:49 pm

Keep an eye on Bastion. I think he's going to be a bit special.

C'mon you Clarets.

Darnhill Claret · Post by **Darnhill Claret** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 7:49 pm

Think I’d only risk Twine if we are 1 down with 15 minutes or less to go. Another 45 games to go. Just like I wanted Ben Mee to come off after his first knock in that game where he took further knocks and didn’t feature again.

5 mins to kick off. Can we take a minute to remember all the Clarets that passed this Summer.
There seemed to be so many. RIP all of them.

Excited for the start of a new season, worried about our front line.. looks very weak.
But hopefully they will prove me wrong! UTC

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 8:02 pm

Interesting line-up from Vinny, didn't expect Costelloe to start that's for sure, and Dodgson and Phillips on the bench, can't deny he's giving the youngsters a fair crack of the whip.

Shame about Jay, but not a surprise given the rumours, Taylor at LCB could be genius, or it could fail badly, but I guess he'll bring some experience.

claretandy · Post by **claretandy** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 8:04 pm

looks like 451,costeloe on the right.
