Lucky to go in at 0-0.
Cullen off at halftime. Unfortunately their tactics are rendering him completely ineffective, and he isn't really physical enough to compete with them on their terms.
Possibly Hannibal on, but in a game like this he's a red card waiting to happen.

Decent enough first half, apart from the scary final minutes of added-on time.

Anthony is nowhere near good enough. A very negative half by us, very lucky at the end Trafford has to be stronger

Got either 0-0 or 1-0 to Millwall written all over this.

Started well, but Millwall have turned it into a scrap which suits them.

We don’t remotely look like scoring.

I’d be hooking Anthony for Sarmiento.

In a half of not many positives I am glad to see us having it with Millwall and not allowing ourselves to be bullied

Roberts, Esteve Humphries, Laurent, Cullen and Hountondji I've seen all willing to stand up for theirselves and get stuck in this half.

People say the problem is upfront but I think it's midfield. Passing back when the pass can be moved forward. Wide midfielders passing back instead of going forward.
I think we’d been playing over 30 mins when Brownhill’s name was first mentioned.

Anthony off and Cullen off, Sacramento on and Hannibal or possibly jay and go 442 for me , but sp will see it differently and change nowt as per usual, after a very bright start it's turned into the normal borefest as usual.

Another poor half. Tippy tally side to side. Millwall starting to win the 50/50 balls and should be ahead. Hannibal on I suspect for Cullen and Sarmiento for Anthony

The left hand side of Bashir and Anthony are so negative, first thought is turn back all the time
My concern is this is on instruction.

Koleosho HAS to be on the left for me. Anthony’ best attribute is two footed. So put him on the right.

Frustrating rather than boring. Story of the season bar the first 2 games.

Playing a team who are up for it and think they can win does help us, but a real risk of conceding here today. Can't see them failing to score based on how the half ended.

I can't really see what we change though with the resource we have.

Absolutely awful again, based on that first half we wouldn’t score if we played all night. Proper negative nothing football, possession for the sake of it. Sh*t scared of conceding a goal.

I look forward to more excuses about how we’re missing X and Y player, like it hasn’t been poor football all season and it’s just a one off.

Used to these kind of performances now. Millwall’s physicality is a strength, I don’t know what our strength is. Yes I’m worried we will come away with nothing. So many average players!

That was for the liner to give, it was right in front of him. Then for the ref to decide whether to play advantage.

Sarmiento has been pretty poor barring that goal he scored, but I’d be bringing him on for Anthony and shifting Koleosho to the left.

Houtondji started really quite well and then we just seemed to have totally struggled to get him into the game.

In the context of the last 10 years, this is a shockingly bad Burnley side, isn’t it? Yes, we’ve had far worse in my 40 odd years of watching but the non-tactics and general lack of ability throughout is woeful. It’s a more difficult watch for me now than as a young, excited fan in the early the 80s, but still here I am (and we all are). I think we’ve just got to stick it out…😬🤦🏻‍♂️
