Burnley v Forest Thread

[Taffy on the wing]

Awful start!

[CoolClaret]

Yet there's still some plonkers on here that think Chris Wood was sh1t.

A proper #9

[Wokingclaret]

This defence wont be good enough in the Champ

[ecc]

And on it goes.

[Chester Perry]

A possible £2 million at stake (IF Luton lose, we win) so the manager surely has to pick the team that he think has the best chance of winning.

Actually it is between £3.1m and £3.2m, not that the management team seem overly concerned about such things

[THEWELLERNUT70]

Assignon has been worse than useless so far!

[hetheclaret]

Of course VAR will give it.

Because it was onside.

[warksclaret]

Wonder what bit of philosophy VK will use at the press conference

[BigGaz]

Stayed at home today thank god

[TsarBomba]

And on it goes.

We’ve learned absolutely nothing this season.

[spt_claret]

Yet there's still some plonkers on here that think Chris Wood was sh1t.

A proper #9

He completely stopped trying towards the end with us to be fair, he's a great striker but didn't want to be here for his last twelve months.
Outscored our top two scorers combined this season.

[criminalclaret]

We are just so f**king shite. It's painful

[Woody9229]

Season encapsulated! Lots of meaningless possession in opposition half and then far far too easy to score against!

[Vintage Claret]

15 goals (so far) in all comps for Forest for Wood and only 4th player to score for and against us in the Prem.

Not sure who other 3 are, maybe Jayrod and Andre Gray, McNeill?

[CoolClaret]

Not so sure about 'stopped trying'. More lost form and things got a bit stale.

But yeah - miles better than what we have.

[Wokingclaret]

Stayed at home today thank god

Mee too, felt it this morning but glad I sold my ticket

[Culmclaret]

Saved myself a 560 mile round trip today. Nice to see the players putting a shift in for those brave/foolhardy souls who have bothered to attend…….

[LincsWoldsClaret]

Amdouni misses a sitter yet again

[warksclaret]

Amdouni misses a sitter yet again

Our greatest asset is our consistency

[spt_claret]

I still maintain everyone who said "Weghorst was a Wood replacement, Dyche saw him as a head on a stick" is projecting their own ignorance. Maybe he was in ALKs eyes but Dyche said he'd targeted Weghorst a while, yes Wout arrived as Wood left, but Dyche isn't stupid, style wise they're miles apart and Weghorst made far more sense as an upgrade on Jay/Barnes as the link man.

Cornet scored some belters but the team as a whole struggled with him. I think had we signed Wout in the summer a Wout/Wood pairing could have worked.

[burnleymik]

Amdouni misses a sitter yet again

... great setup by JBL and he doesn't even hit the target.

[Murger]

If it wasn’t for my lad, I wouldn’t have bothered today.

[Woody9229]

Thank goodness we r going to walk the Championship!

[CaptainKirk]

Decided to watch my grass grow today as it is more fun than watching this lot.
Nipped in to see how we were doing…….
Then watched that lump Amdouni blaze a sitter over.
Back to my garden

[Wokingclaret]

15 goals (so far) in all comps for Forest for Wood and only 4th player to score for and against us in the Prem.

Only 4, some players like Ings must have a load against us

[Vino blanco]

And a lot on here keep saying this team is better than last season's promotion team. Aye ol'reyt!

[Culmclaret]

Without a doubt the worst Burnley side relative to the rest of a division in living memory

[Cooclaret]

And people keep lapping up the absolute tripe Kompany offers up. They then expect him to lift this team to get promoted next season.

The blokes bust.

Think it's Tarkowski, McNeil, Ings?

[ecc]

Knee-jerk (?) time.But how can anybody want VK to stay on as manager? What a bloody shitshow.

[TsarBomba]

I listened to VK’s press conference and it was all very positive. Today was the start of the new season, we’re going to go ‘all out’ etc.

Then you get to today and it’s a complete disconnect..

[LincsWoldsClaret]

What is wrong with marking their attackers at set pieces - it’s just basic defending

[Milltown1882]

Think it's Tarkowski, McNeil, Ings?

Gray at home to Watford

[Chester Perry]

Think it's Tarkowski, McNeil, Ings?

Michael Keane rather than McNeil I think

[Boss Hogg]

Glad I didn’t bother with this today. Shocking season.

[Wokingclaret]

As the manager says next season has already started........worrying

[Tread Warily]

Pats v Shelbourne?

[kentonclaret]

I listened to VK’s press conference and it was all very positive. Today was the start of the new season, we’re going to go ‘all out’ etc.

Then you get to today and it’s a complete disconnect..

VK certainly has the spiel and some only too happy to lap it up.

[burnleymik]

Odobert putting himself in the shop window.

[Carlos the Great]

It would be a lot worse if we needed 3 points today to stay up

[Robbie_painter]

Not so sure about 'stopped trying'. More lost form and things got a bit stale.

But yeah - miles better than what we have.

He really isn’t tho,he gets better service than our strikers get.I would’ve scored both of his goals today.

[warksclaret]

Luton showing how its done 1-1

[Neil]

Luton showing how its done 1-1

Showing how to get relegated with 3 more points?

[burnleymik]

Amdouni and Barn Door....

[kentonclaret]

Luton showing how its done 1-1

They certainly are 1-2

[AmbleClaret]

Showing how to get relegated with 3 more points?

Not sure they've spent £100million though.

[It Is What It Is]

I hope we at least have a plan for next season.

[LincsWoldsClaret]

Usual problems -
No idea how to defend
No idea what to do once we’ve passed it around their area

[JimmyRobbo]

Luton showing how its done 1-1

Not really, be serious.

They're going down despite the great media love-fest about them.

We should be above them, too , if not for VAR.

[CoolClaret]

He really isn’t tho,he gets better service than our strikers get.I would’ve scored both of his goals today.

Aye course you would pal.

He got them goals because he has great anticipation, movement and speed of thought.

Oh and he's still got a yard and is a big, strong lad.

Stop having yourself on, you'd have taken a shoulder off Esteve and fell over.
