Another good save by BPF

HiThere · Post by **HiThere** » Sat Mar 18, 2023 7:02 pm

BPF is better at saving,
Muric is better at passing.

What is Jenas talking about. “Haaland could’ve gone down a couple of times” no one got close to touching him!!

Muric is excellent at saving too.

We look like are energy levels are dropping, hope we can get some time on the ball.

You now after 60 mins get a feeling for what its been like for every team that we have played in the championship this year

jos · Post by **jos** » Sat Mar 18, 2023 7:05 pm

Shame

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Sat Mar 18, 2023 7:05 pm

Yes energy and press has dropped off a bit now. 3rd looking likely.

Been coming, they've been creating chances for fun this half.

Let's just sit back and enjoy the football

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Sat Mar 18, 2023 7:06 pm

5 incoming.

Our shape has gone. Al D (and the rest of the defenders) throwing himself all over the place in desperation. We have been pulled all over.

No great shame. A lesson or 10 to be gained.

I just said exactly the same thing. They can do this against a top 5 Premier League side.

Why does it always end 5-0?

Taffy on the wing · Post by **Taffy on the wing** » Sat Mar 18, 2023 7:06 pm

We look knackered already........Tella needs a rest.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Sat Mar 18, 2023 7:07 pm

Shape completely gone this half.

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Sat Mar 18, 2023 7:07 pm

Comes off the post straight to Haaland

Guitargeorge · Post by **Guitargeorge** » Sat Mar 18, 2023 7:07 pm

We better get used to this guys, playing them again later this year.

MDWat · Post by **MDWat** » Sat Mar 18, 2023 7:07 pm

Appreciate this is the absolute top level and we won’t come up against this every week but central midfield needs some serious upgrades in the summer.

If we were playing them every weekend next season you'd have a good point.

Really don't want to criticize Burnley or Kompany today this was always coming but the 2 subs have completely killed our shape, press and structure. We're being utterly overrun now.

It's like when you're a kid and playing in under-10s and this one little **** on the other side just blasts in 13 goals and you lose 13-0.

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Sat Mar 18, 2023 7:09 pm

Not done badly considering they have a robot upfront. He simply doesn't miss.

No they have to score at least five against us, thems the rules!

I did look at the changes and was a bit confused.

Ampth7 · Post by **Ampth7** » Sat Mar 18, 2023 7:10 pm

Love the fact that the only fans you can hear are ours!

BurnleyFC · Post by **BurnleyFC** » Sat Mar 18, 2023 7:11 pm

Shame we couldn’t have met these a few weeks ago when they were struggling a bit.

Unfortunately we’ve had to play them whilst they’re in their best form of the season.

Elbarad · Post by **Elbarad** » Sat Mar 18, 2023 7:11 pm

At this point I would pull Tella and whoever else could use 30 min off

Croydon Claret · Post by **Croydon Claret** » Sat Mar 18, 2023 7:11 pm

It was never going to be a test of our ability to compete next season.

IWe were getting beat 5-0 when we had an established Premier League side

So far we're not quite at 5 yet with a Championship side. That's progress right

Haha, so true - reminds me of this beast we used to play against when I was at Ferney Lee in Todmorden (he played for St Joseph’s). He was called Roberto and his Italian Mum used to scream “Forza Roberto Yes Yes!” after every goal. I swear he was 28 whilst we were 11.

It depends how your mind works.

I was thinking if we drew a side like Sheffield or Rovers and beat them to play City at Wembley in the semi-finals? Because you'd love 35,000 Burnley fans to go to London knowing we've pretty much lost.

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Sat Mar 18, 2023 7:14 pm

It's ultimately a good experience even it was an appalling draw. Now they know what the very top level of football looks like.
