Sensible subs though doubts about Flemming as a 9 with his back to goal.

Bit surprised Sarmiento went off.

Should have been Anthony or Koleosho.

I'm guessing SP asked both Hanni and Sarmi to give a half at 100% energy.

Get it away FFS

Luca switched off again

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:23 pm

Koleosho looks knackered to me

We need to wake-up here.

Kgun5 · Post by **Kgun5** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:24 pm

Lol...Trafford practicing.

LTUK89 · Post by **LTUK89** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:24 pm

Koleosho needs dragging off.

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:24 pm

Finding some space behind us.
Scary

whiffa · Post by **whiffa** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:25 pm

Pires on for Luca on the left? Maybe an idea

expoultryboy · Post by **expoultryboy** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:25 pm

Stop xxxxxxx around at the back in these conditions !!

ksrclaret · Post by **ksrclaret** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:25 pm

Middlesbrough are playing better than us in this second half. They really should have scored one of their opportunities.

Rick_Muller · Post by **Rick_Muller** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:25 pm

Should’ve squared that to Anthony

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:25 pm

Hannibal could play right, Anthony left, houtondji on for Luca and flemming in 10.

The wind is more effective than Luca at this point

I agree with that. Get a forward on and play Flemming where he should be played.

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:27 pm

Ooooh.
Anthony was on his own.

CrosspoolClarets · Post by **CrosspoolClarets** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:29 pm

That lack of pass from Hannibal was criminal, Anthony was in. Could go either way this game. I hope our lack of final ball doesn’t cost us.

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:31 pm

Laurent and Pires coming on. Slightly disappointed given we're at home.

Longsidebovril · Post by **Longsidebovril** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:31 pm

If I was a neutral .. I’d be enjoying this game.
So much better when a team comes and has a go rather than sitting back.

It won't. We will win

CrosspoolClarets · Post by **CrosspoolClarets** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:32 pm

Three attackers off and none on. All midfielders replacing them.

If it works it is genius. If it doesn’t it is too negative.

Great work from Trafford there

Rick_Muller · Post by **Rick_Muller** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:33 pm

Superb Traff.

Cazaris · Post by **Cazaris** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:35 pm

How has Latte Lath not been at least booked for that? If that's on the throat it's a straight red...

Sgt. Pepper · Post by **Sgt. Pepper** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:36 pm

Not seen enough of Hountondji to figure out if he's good enough, but surely if he's worth a place on the bench we should be playing an actual forward in the last ten minutes of a game like this.

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:37 pm

If he hasn't been booked there could be a retrospective ban.

Yes. Just play him in.

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:38 pm

Poor ball for Anthony from laurent there, took all the pace out of it

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:38 pm

Anthony HAS to pass there. Both he and Hannibal wasted really good positions for a 1 on 1.

Dyched · Post by **Dyched** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:38 pm

So poor again.

expoultryboy · Post by **expoultryboy** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:38 pm

Why didn't Anthony play Brownhill in ??

ksrclaret · Post by **ksrclaret** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:38 pm

Incredible that Anthony doesn't pass there. Absolutely incredible.

Dyched · Post by **Dyched** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:38 pm

Too much greed in this side for me.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:38 pm

Anthony should have squared that.

CrosspoolClarets · Post by **CrosspoolClarets** » Fri Dec 06, 2024 9:39 pm

That failure to even look for Brownhill by Anthony was the worst lack of a pass all season.

It was game won if he had made it. Really bad.

(We have played really well tonight but that final ball has been dreadful).

Come on Burnley we can win this.

Hannibal and Anthony should be disappointed with themselves there - wasted two golden opportunities.

Nothing wrong with that challenge on their keeper
