Clarets v West Brom Match Thread

Well we should have had a pen, hit the bar and post and had a goal a toenail offside. Overall not bad. Probably see Benson/Twine soonish.

Defender took Tella out after the pen claim

Pickles · Post by **Pickles** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 8:52 pm

It's been unfathomably rare this season but West Brom have come to the Turf, identified our weaknesses and are exploiting them. They've played really well. Corberan is a Premier League manager in waiting.

We aren't out of it by any means, but as tough a game as many of us thought.

Post, crossbar and a couple of decent penalty shouts. We can definitely get back into this and even win. Our bench is strong too. Come on!

clear push on Taylor
brown hill penalty
nearly own goal
furlong cheat
Barnes a cock hair from being on or offside
Barnes hit bar
looked like Tella was caught for penalty, not 100% sure tho.

makes for a good second half. players will be pumped for it, I'm sure.

Good game, apart from the score.
Clear foul for their goal, clear dive from Bash, but thought the offside goal should have stood.
Their disallowed goal correct, but you've seen them given so many times.
The only thing we're lacking is a bit of luck.

Everyone is playing well, just need to keep at it second half

Rick_Muller · Post by **Rick_Muller** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 8:54 pm

Feeling disappointed with that. I think Taylor was fouled, I also think Brownhill was fouled too, similar shoves in the back. Interesting that some of those saying Taylor was too soft are also claiming Brownhill was fouled.

Barnes unlucky, looked onside on all the replays I saw. Also unlucky with Pieters almost turning in his cross. Then he hits the bar. He’s been great tonight.

Watched the Tella incident again, I do genuinely think his foot was clipped, when you slow it down you can see it on the replay.

warksclaret · Post by **warksclaret** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 8:54 pm

Very little creativity by us going forward and missing the composure of THB at the back. Taylor is a decent LB but definitely not a CH and dithers so much. The 3 players we have been after this week emphasise our shortcomings,Think we need Benson on soon, for Bastian and push Josh back to CM

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 8:54 pm

We didn't get one when we should have so I have no problem with them diving tonight. That's 2 pens now we should have had against them this season, with the hand ball at their place.

Childzy · Post by **Childzy** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 8:54 pm

Keep that level up in 2nd half and easily get two back.

The fact our ‘fans’ are happy to lump on Tella yet say Muric wasn’t fouled just shows how many thrive on hating the team

Conroy92 · Post by **Conroy92** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 8:54 pm

The push in the back on Brownhill was a penny. The one of Tellas was engineered, dive. Barnes close on the offside. We've been the better side.

CrosspoolClarets · Post by **CrosspoolClarets** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 8:54 pm

Could have had 4, they are good but we hit the woodwork twice, close with that late corner, and 4 penalty shouts (two were, two were not, the two that were was Brownhill and when Tella was assaulted). Then the Barnes marginall offside.

They were also lucky their goal wasn’t disallowed for a push on Taylor. But….the refs have been told to allow some physicality this season, that has cost us today. So far.

For me Tella was tripped. His foot was clipped

Tella clearly dived
Never a penalty

Pickles · Post by **Pickles** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 8:56 pm

Ref's had an absolute shocker by the way. Foul on Taylor for their goal, and about as blatant a penalty as you'll see for the push on Brownhill. He's supposed to be one of the best refs in the country.

Bigvince · Post by **Bigvince** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 8:57 pm

Should have been a pen, when mulumby went for Tella the ball was still in play

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 8:57 pm

Don't we usually up the tempo second half? They might not find it as easy to defend if we are moving faster.

Rick_Muller · Post by **Rick_Muller** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 8:58 pm

I’m confident, I think we’re going to win this

That’s an interesting point, yes the ball was still in play.

Quickenthetempo · Post by **Quickenthetempo** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 8:59 pm

Story of 2 pushes.

Both in their favour.

Too many safe passes backwards though. Roberts needs to be better with Vitinho on the bench.

With VAR we're ahead in this...

Tribesmen · Post by **Tribesmen** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 8:59 pm

Lets not panic here playing well and having a lot of the ball .

Don't worry lads we will lash them in the 2nd half

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 9:00 pm

They don't look that good at the back. We need one to go in, even off someone's backside. Give us confidence then.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 9:01 pm

We had a stone wall pen denied against them at their place too.

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 9:01 pm

Bastien off. Brown take his role. Tella more central with Barnes. Benson on right will terrorize em. Job done

Croydon Claret · Post by **Croydon Claret** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 9:02 pm

Early goal in the second half and we're on our way

Tella was expecting contact that never came. He doesn’t even appeal for the pen, he gets straight back up and tries to play on - then he’s barged over by the other fella.

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 9:02 pm

Change of formation coming up with 2 up?

We’ll have no 100% Burnley deserve everything comments on here.

I hope we absolutely batter them this second half. I'm well riled up

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 9:06 pm

Do a Man City and put 4 in

. We don't lose many home night matches and we usually score so I'm hoping to see their net bulge this half.

Agree. Most blatant pen shout of the match

I think we should have had 2 pens and their goal was a foul

But Muric was lucky

Benson would be the main change for me, get him running against tiring legs.

Maybe that he's playing as a centre back when he's clearly a left back.

Maybe because he doesn't get a good run and is being played out of position most times.
