DL v Clarets Match Thread

[IanMcL]

Come on Burnley Come on Burnley Come on Burnley

[KernowHouseClaret]

We just look knackered

[blatherwickstattoos]

Pessimist!

Just saying what I see. We cannot carry on playing this bad and expect them not to score

[Commy]

The worry is, how tired we are going to be later on in the match with chasing the ball.

[Pickles]

This ref is shite. Just booked Humphreys (correctly) for taking a throw in a different postcode from where it should've been. But Leeds did the same thing a couple of minutes ago on the other side of the pitch and he bottled it in front of Farke.

Good performance from us this is.

[Sgt. Pepper]

Hannibal has been poor second half. He was first to the ball there and just let the Leeds player take it off him.

[DCWat]

not convinced by Pires yet

Agreed - some good but some bad. He often looks a bit off balance and awkward to me and his positioning / maintaining possession isn’t always great

Lovely ball for the goal at Luton though.

Second half isn’t much cop.

[Superjohnnyfrancis]

Need an out ball get Houdini up front

[blatherwickstattoos]

Get Cullen on asap

[IanMcL]

Why do we pass it out like that and sell kyr players out???

[ecc]

Need an out ball get Houdini up front

Houdini. LOL

[Sgt. Pepper]

Trying to pass out from the back and lucky to get away with it.
There is a time where it's completely acceptable to lump it down to the other end of the pitch.

[Goliath]

Josh Laurent is incredibly poor technically.

[ElectroClaret]

Cullen coming on for Hannibal.

[JimmyRobbo]

Unfortunately, the ball by Flemming killed it. Followed by Laurent just gifting the ball back to them.

[Commy]

Is Cullen coming on? Someone taking their top off to get changed.

[martin_p]

Cullen on for Hannibal

[blatherwickstattoos]

Egan coming on

[Gunfury]

Houdini. LOL

Yeah his real name escapes me also

[jos]

Cullen on for side show Bob.

[Sgt. Pepper]

And now Humphreys overplaying it.
Cullen will hopefully make a difference.

[willsclarets]

This is frustrating.

[TsarBomba]

About time.

[IanMcL]

Cullen on Hannibal off

[JimmyRobbo]

Hope Cullen is fit. Really misssed his quality.

[ElectroClaret]

15 mins left.

[wilks_bfc]

Leeds comms think every tackle from us where their player hits the floor is a foul

[blatherwickstattoos]

15 mins left.

No shots on goal for a while. Just want to see us further up the pitch it’s horrible to watch this

[Pickles]

Second half isn’t much cop.

Agreed but it's away at Leeds, expect them to have more of the ball like this. We do need to relieve some of this pressure though.

[JimmyRobbo]

Leeds comms think every tackle from us where their player hits the floor is a foul

Assume you mean Sky TV. Same thing.

[Superjohnnyfrancis]

The whole team has gone Houdini

[blatherwickstattoos]

Defending well but the ball retention is shocking

[Commy]

How weird that our possession stats have gone up by 2% this half.

[IanMcL]

Humphries wins throw

[It Is What It Is]

Our passing and ball control is woeful.

[Goliath]

Josh Laurent is incredibly poor technically.

As is Joe Worrall

[Superjohnnyfrancis]

We need an out and out striker in Jan

[Commy]

Worrall had all day to make that pass and overhit it.

[JimmyRobbo]

As is Joe Worrall

Wasn't it his glorious ball out to Bashir, just then?

[Buxtonclaret]

Come on, Burnley!
Keep these Two Ats out.

[JimmyRobbo]

Looks like a bit of blood from Browny who won the header with half an hour to spare.

[RVclaret]

We’ve needed some fresh legs up top really. Flemming worked so hard and done well but this is his first game all season. Had that extra zip in the press first half.

[willsclarets]

We need an out and out striker in Jan

Not been our problem today/second half. Our first pass when we've turned it over has been really bad

[BurnleyFC]

This is a really tough watch.

I think we’ve been fairly dreadful.

[IanMcL]

Brownhill looks bad
Their player was late there.

[martin_p]

Looks like a bit of blood from Browny who won the header with half an hour to spare.

Don’t understand why it’s not a free kick to us.

[blatherwickstattoos]

If we manage to hang on to this it’s a proper smash and grab win.

[ksrclaret]

The problem right now is that we’ve too many players who aren’t comfortable on the ball. Worrall and Laurent are poor technically and then there’s Humphreys playing at RB where he doesn’t look comfortable.

It’s just a tough watch.

[Superjohnnyfrancis]

Needs to bring on either Jay Rod or Houdini
