Next manager

[HahaYeah]

I thought people would be interested to see a half-time team talk from Scott Parker.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNHIQxNlHpQ

Didn't like him before and that didn't help to change my mind.

He sounds exasperated, voice rising with panic.

[warksclaret]

There must be a simpler way of making the points he was trying to get across. I saw no connection between him and the players, and certainly not motivating. Wondered what it was like in that dressing room when Liverpool tonked them 9-0

[fatboy47]

Robbie Blake walks in to this team though

Only if he picked it.

[Casper2]

Come on. We have got to go all out to get a manager with the name Igor.

Is that the Steve Cooper half time team talk?

[dannyonclarets]

No he doesn’t.

Ignore Bumba, he doesn't have a clue about the game.

[Silkyskills1]

How did that weapon work out for us last season?

Were we blessed with pace last season? Koleosho showed signs of it occasionally along with Odobert but both are young and had no concept of how and when to make use of it. Other than that we were quite pedestrian in our style and approach. Running quickly down blind alleys or running quickly into the opposition to be dispossessed is not making good use of an asset. But then you already know this and are probably just looking for verbal confrontation and I'm definetly not.

[Rowls]

Wonder why we paid him in pounds in the Championship and Euros in the Premier League

That's Brexit for you. Couldn't make it up, eh?

[The Shire Claret]

I think I saw Chris Waddle in Starbucks on Barracks Road …

He got a hit chocolate and a strawberry and cream Frappachino

Everyone deserved a second chance right ??

[Casper2]

Is that the Steve Cooper half time team talk?

That’s an insult to Marty Feldman

[bumba]

No he doesn’t.

I can't think of any winger on our books that I'd pick over Blake currently

[bumba]

Ignore Bumba, he doesn't have a clue about the game.

I'd wager I know more than yourself.

[dannyonclarets]

I'd wager I know more than yourself.

Name your price. You talk crap.

I'm not after confrontation, I'm unsure how we can be blessed with pace in the championship but not blessed with pace last season with the exact same players?

[bumba]

Name your price. You talk crap.

What's crap?
Any price you want.

[golden days]

I can't think of any winger on our books that I'd pick over Blake currently

Did Blake ever play as a winger similar to any player on our books?

[bumba]

Did Blake ever player as a winger similar to any player on our books?

Yes Blake played wide left quite a lot, why does it have to be similar?
I'd pick him over any of the wingers we've got because he's got quality end product

[boatshed bill]

What's crap?
Any price you want.

I'm loving this little confrontation

[dannyonclarets]

Did Blake ever play as a winger similar to any player on our books?

None of them. Not a single one of them.

[dannyonclarets]

Good grief man.

[bumba]

Is this you again Nori

[boatshed bill]

Yes Blake played wide left quite a lot, why does it have to be similar?
I'd pick him over any of the wingers we've got because he's got quality end product

That would be his 2 goals in 31 PL appearances, then?

[bumba]

Good grief man.

Which of our current wingers are better now than Robbie Blake was when we was in the premier league under Coyle?

Tresor
Koleosho with no end product?
Benson who's had minutes?
Zaroury who started a single game?
Odobert is the closest but very inconsistent.

Come on you tell me the player that's better and tell me why Mr.football knowledge

[bumba]

That would be his 2 goals in 31 PL appearances, then?

11 goals and 4 assists in the premier league.

Love it when someone who knows naff all, suddenly becomes defensive.

What I find more annoying is the fact you genuinely believe you know what you're talking about.

[bumba]

What I find more annoying is the fact you genuinely believe you know what you're talking about.

Yet you still can't give me any reason or examples

Koleosho 1 goal 1 assist
Odobert 3 goals 3 assists
Tresor 0 goals 0 assists
Benson 0 goals 0 assists
Zaroury 0 goals 0 assists

Blake 11 goals 4 assists

[boatshed bill]

11 goals and 4 assists in the premier league.

Not all for Burnley then?

[dannyonclarets]

Koleosho 1 goal 1 assist
Odobert 3 goals 3 assists
Tresor 0 goals 0 assists
Benson 0 goals 0 assists

Blake 11 goals 4 assists

No way are you over 16.

[golden days]

Because you're comparing them?

Blake was a number 10, an excellent one, none of those you've mentioned are

[bumba]

Not all for Burnley then?

Nope but all in the premier league which proved he could do it better than any of our wingers currently can

[Fretters]

Blake 11 goals 4 assists

In 100 games.

[bumba]

Because you're comparing them?

Blake was a number 10, an excellent one, none of those you've mentioned are

Odobert played 10 every game towards the end of the season but that isn't the point of I was picking a team tomorrow for some to play out wide for a Burnley team id pick the Blake Burnley had over any of the wingers we had last season

[boatshed bill]

Robbie Blake was a lovely football player.
Not prolific at PL level 11 goals in 100 PL appearances.

[bumba]

In 100 games.

I bet none of the others except possibly Odobert get anywhere close to those numbers

[bumba]

No way are you over 16.

No way you still haven't given an example

[dannyonclarets]

No way you still haven't given an example

Well that's what's one way of telling me I was correct. So we now have that sorted.

[dannyonclarets]

Because you're comparing them?

Blake was a number 10, an excellent one, none of those you've mentioned are

He's clueless. He really is.

[golden days]

Odobert played 10 every game towards the end of the season but that isn't the point of I was picking a team tomorrow for some to play out wide for a Burnley team id pick the Blake Burnley had over any of the wingers we had last season

In this league?.... I'd go benson

[bumba]

Well that's what's one way of telling me I was correct. So we now have that sorted.

I wouldn't remember Robbie Blake if I was under 16 would I?

By not giving me any reason I'll take that as one way of you telling me I am correct. Cheers

[Quickenthetempo]

I'm not after confrontation, I'm unsure how we can be blessed with pace in the championship but not blessed with pace last season with the exact same players?

Most Premier league players will have 2 yards of pace on the average championship player.

[bumba]

In this league?.... I'd go benson

Benson 11 goals and 3 assists in the promotion from the championship
Blake 8 goals and 12 assists in the promotion from the championship

I know which I'd pick

[bumba]

Most Premier league players will have 2 yards of pace on the average championship player.

Or they are quick with no end product?

[dannyonclarets]

Benson 11 goals and 3 assists in the promotion from the championship
Blake 8 goals and 12 assists in the promotion from the championship

I know which I'd pick

Are you for real?

[bumba]

Are you for real?

Did you ever watch Robbie Blake play?

[boatshed bill]

Or they are quick with no end product?

Bumba, wouldn't it be fairer to compare Blake with Bruun- Larsen? Very similar in my opinion.

[Casper2]

Steve Clarke could be looking for a job soon

[Superjohnnyfrancis]

Moyes was on radio earlier days he wants a few months off work before even thinking about managing again, I guess that rules him out of a couple of jobs.

Think he would be perfect for a rebuild and to reduce the squad size.

Rob Edward’s might be a better option than Lampard or Parker. Could he be tempted by a bigger budget here and better players than Luton?

[dannyonclarets]

Did you ever watch Robbie Blake play?

He played before you were born.

As a few others are TRYING to tell you - he was NOTHING like the wingers we have.

What will it take for you to understand this?

[LlandennyClaret]

Admin. Pull this thread . Nori and gang have returned

[bumba]

Bumba, wouldn't it be fairer to compare Blake with Bruun- Larsen? Very similar in my opinion.

Not really because Bruun Larsson is an Hoffenheim player who won't be with us next season otherwise different story altogether
