Superb touches from Roberts on the edge of the box before Vitinho tamely put it straight at the keeper.

Muric makes a save. A few folks on here can calm down now.

Weak foot, bit unlucky possibly should have done better there Viti.
Great surge by Bellis.

HT.
Shocking defending for their goal. 2 attackers up for a mega hoofball, THB has them both cos Charlie is so wide. When THB makes a move for the first header Charlie has to track back but cos he’s not used to playing CB he is far too slow. A gift.

My main concern with the team building is they are all coming in around £2m on average. Every side in the Championship has a collection of £2m and better players. Problem being our guys are strangers for now and a lot of them are making geographical moves that take settling in time. Might work long term but I can’t see it gelling soon.

Keeper did well there.

It doesn’t look like a game for Cork. They are running past him on the quick breaks

NRC · Post by **NRC** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 8:58 pm

Allahayr probably off here - good!

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 8:58 pm

Roberts looked to have played their winger on....tight...

In Rugby you don’t get this stoppage when there is an injury

A very good catch there from Muric

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:00 pm

Bastien looking sharper this half.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:00 pm

Time to get Vitinho off. Not worked in that role at all for me.
Hopefully fans can calm down a bit with him now.

Claret Alfie · Post by **Claret Alfie** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:00 pm

We could sacrifice one of the 4 centre midfielders and put Tella on up top with Jay.

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:02 pm

Come on Super Burnley

Hoping Twine gets in the team if, for nothing else, to keep Brownhill away from free kicks. Awful.

He's consistently awful at set pieces. Everyone else in the starting XI must be shocking

Bastien is the one. Tella or Manuel.

Weird comment when he's almost never been given the ball. He missed a half decent chance but Jay squandered a far better play.
We're using him more now and he's looking brighter. A winger can't do much if he's never brought into play.

Belgianclaret · Post by **Belgianclaret** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:06 pm

We’ll get done with those - 1 on 1s soon

Still like something about Bastien. I'm inclined to agree in that his attacking contribution isn't much but he's not being used as a proper winger he's coming inside to give Maatsen room. We play an out and out winger out there it changes how Maatsen plays, this is an assymmetrical formation.

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:06 pm

Good play

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:06 pm

One the break, again, when play broke down. Good job they messed the through ball up.

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:07 pm

Super Jay

Tricky Trevor · Post by **Tricky Trevor** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:07 pm

Josh Benson scores a screamer to put Barnsley 3 up. His third in three in EFL.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:09 pm

Brownhill should do better there

Newcastleclaret93 · Post by **Newcastleclaret93** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:09 pm

Brownhill has to get that on target

Fair comment. He may very well be occupying space and keeping their defenders honest but I just see someone ambling around high up the pitch.

We desperately need a player with vision who can pass incisively!

Newcastleclaret93 · Post by **Newcastleclaret93** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:10 pm

Excellent pass from cullen though

NRC · Post by **NRC** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:10 pm

good routine though - better than torpedoing it into the area with no outcome

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:10 pm

Unlucky Jay

jedi_master · Post by **jedi_master** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:10 pm

Jay misses a superb chance - just stretching for it though. Should have scored.

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:10 pm

Think Tella and Benson about to enter the fray. Bastien and Vintinho off

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:10 pm

Some fantastic football

Benson and Tella on

Josh should have buried his chance also

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:12 pm

Vitinho and Bastien off ... probably the correct subs, from what I've seen.

BurnleyFC · Post by **BurnleyFC** » Tue Aug 16, 2022 9:12 pm

Jay should’ve broke the back of the net, there.

A really tame effort.

Oh I totally agree, although I think we'd probably need a different defensive setup to have a conventional 433, either Maatsen sits deeper or you put him on the wing, Taylor LB someone else in CB. I like having 2 wingers to stretch players and think it might work better with this team against some defences, but would need Twine in the middle as a deep forward/false nine or an outright big mobile centre forward, poundland Haaland.

Looks like we've made that change now, hope it works.

We've probably got one in Twine, unfortunately he's injured for a few weeks yet.

Decent save from Muric. We definitely seem vulnerable on the counter again and again.
