Team for Luton?

[It Is What It Is]

I hope Ashley B throws in a sickie on 31 Aug so he can come to the Turf and bang like ...k on them lots dressing room door then give a motivation speech to our lads before kick off.
AB truly knew what this derby game is about...the oldest rivalry in world football...Nathan T knew as well to be fair.

[FCBurnley]

Burnley dire says possible debuts for Hladky Greene Pires Sambo and the big center forward I can’t spell !!!

[BB4Claret]

Food for thought

Hladky
Roberts - O’Shea - Estève - Pires/Vitinho
JBG - Cullen - Berge - Zaroury
Weghorst - Foster

Bench : Trafford, Brownhill, Twine, Al Dhakil, JayRod, Odobert, Benson, Houtondji, Vitinho/Pires

I think starting both Hladky and Greene is going a bit too defensive.

[claretskeith]

Food for thought

Hladky
Roberts - O’Shea - Estève - Pires/Vitinho
JBG - Cullen - Berge - Zaroury
Weghorst - Foster

Bench : Trafford, Brownhill, Twine, Al Dhakil, JayRod, Odobert, Benson, Houtondji, Vitinho/Pires

Koleosho not even making the bench? I hope not.

[jedi_master]

If Weghorst appears I will streak down Brunshaw carrying a Bastards flag before the Cardiff game.

[Newcastleclaret93]

It appears Amdouni has not travelled with the match day squad.

So we can rule him out from the starting eleven

[Firthy]

Hladky
Vitinho O'Shea Esteves Pires
Cullen Brownhill
Koleosho Amdouni Odobert
Foster

[BB4Claret]

Koleosho not even making the bench? I hope not.

From SP’s press conference, Koleosho may not be fully fit, despite having played in Cadiz.

[BB4Claret]

If Weghorst appears I will streak down Brunshaw carrying a Bastards flag before the Cardiff game.

What time ? ;-p

[FCBurnley]

Total guess

Hladky

Vitinho O’Shea Esteve Pires

Koleoshu Brownhill Cullen Odobert

Amdouni

Foster

Subs. Greene Roberts AD JBG Zaroury Benson J Rod Houtondji Berge

[RVclaret]

Total guess

Hladky

Vitinho O’Shea Esteve Pires

Koleoshu Brownhill Cullen Odobert

Amdouni

Foster

Subs. Greene Roberts AD JBG Zaroury Benson J Rod Houtondji Berge

Impossible, only 5 homegrown out of 7 required in the squad. Also Amdouni is not in the squad given he’s just posted a picture in the training ground.

[FCBurnley]

Ok so Houtondji for Amdouni and bring in a couple of home grown on bench replacing Amdouni and Another non homegrown

Burnley dire says possible debuts for Hladky Greene Pires Sambo and the big center forward I can’t spell !!!

By debuts I bet he means in the squad.

[Spijed]

Whatever happened to the idea of playing your best players?

Why isn't Berge starting since he hasn't been sold yet?

[FCBurnley]

My text should have said Burnley site ( not dire !!) and I be assumed debuts to mean squad but not necessarily start

[dcunningham27]

Whatever happened to the idea of playing your best players?

He’s been injured

[Newcastleclaret93]

From what I can gather Berge is very much out the door already (not physically), so I don’t think there’s much to gain from playing someone that isn’t going to part of the plan. Not sure it sends the right signal to the other lads either if Parker were to play him.

Wouldn't he give us a better chance of winning though?

[ArmchairDetective]

If what's been stated on this thread is true then I'll guess at:

Hladky
Vitinho O'Shea Esteve Pires
Cullen Brownhill
Benson Odobert Zaroury
Foster

If Koleosho is fit he replaces Benson in that squad.

Subs: Greene Roberts Al-Dakhil JBG Jay Hount Massengo + RVClaret's pick1 RVClaret's pick2

[claretskeith]

Can somebody start the match thread. We can get all the negatives out of the way well before kickoff.

[CoolClaret]

I'd bloody love it if Weghorst started. Weggy firing the clarets to promotion would be just brilliant.

[LongsideClaret]

If Weghorst appears I will streak down Brunshaw carrying a Bastards flag before the Cardiff game.

Hope you’ve got your running shoes at the ready…

[claretskeith]

You have got to be kidding me.

[jedi_master]

See, anyone else posts that and I have a little laugh.

You post it and I’m now thinking I’m in a hole

Joking aside…for all of his justified criticism at Premier League level, I would love to see what he could do in this division for us if he’s genuinely up for it.

[LongsideClaret]

You have got to be kidding me.

He’s travelled. Trained for the last week. Wouldn’t expect him to start but could make the bench, unless he’s gone as extra man.

Forget all that. Have you been on Ebay yet to buy the flag?

[Quickenthetempo]

Let's hope he gets a fair crack of the whip.

[Quickenthetempo]

Has Berge travelled down?

[RVclaret]

Interesting taken Weghorst and not Amdouni, who has been in training a bit longer.

[morninbob]

So wout's travelled but Amdouni hasn't

[Superjohnnyfrancis]

Is JBG injured?

[NottsClaret]

If Berge's fit and happy to play, he has to start. Nine points available before the window shuts.

[FCBurnley]

I completely forgot WW was still our player !!!!

[Conroy92]

If Weghorst plays it is absolutely vital the fans get behind him.

[jedi_master]

If Weghorst plays it is absolutely vital the fans get behind him.

That was the problem last pre-season in Belgium. Hopefully not an issue in a competitive game, surely not.

[claretskeith]

If Weghorst plays it is absolutely vital the fans get behind him.

Had it been a home game, I'd be expecting fans to be at him. As it's an away game, I think they will all be behind him if he did make an appearance.

[Andingle]

If he plays , he gets my 100% support.

[PremierLeagueClass]

If Weghorst plays it is absolutely vital the fans get behind him.

Absolutely, I’d like to think those going will realise it’s in their best interest to get behind any player wearing a Burnley shirt.

[Bowclaret]

Hearing that Weghorst is on the bench. If so, and he comes on - BACK HIM !!!!

[JimmyRobbo]

Not what I think we will play (as I think it will be same as your first prediction)but I’d play

Trafford
Roberts OShea Esteve Pires
Cullen Berge
Brownhill
Odobert. Koleosho
Foster

That’s providing Berge and OShea heads are in the game.

From my limited knowledge, I think this looks pretty close to nailed.

[claretskeith]

Berge starts? I'd be very happy with that.

[Tackler49]

Weghorst on the bench Trafford in goal i bet nobody expected that!

[BB4Claret]

If Weghorst appears I will streak down Brunshaw carrying a Bastards flag before the Cardiff game.

Ooooopssssss !!!!


I’m certainly not one of those “ITK” people. I just had a hunch he might be used - either to put himself more in the shop window or because SP, a better man-manager than VK, had convinced him that it’s in his own interest to put something in before leaving.

Fair bloody play mate - let me off though, nobody wants to see my gut

No worries, Jedi !

I did have a smirk on my face, when I posted !!
