Brady

There was a point in the second half when Dyche told Brady to play two touch. He does indeed keep hold of the ball too long and tries to over complicate. Nothing moves quicker than the ball and he needs to understand that. Put some good crosses in though

Very poor today but it's quite common for wingers to be brilliant one week and absolute crap the next.

Was poor today but not on his own.

Put in a few balls which should have ended up as assists with Vokes and Mee guilty. Apart from that, I'd agree, his general play was poor.

For me he's a bit too wasteful in possession. Maybe needs to give Defour a try at a free kick, like that one just in front of the penalty area.

That ball should have been squared to Vokes a la Glen Little at coventry years ago.

He's not consistent and seems to lose concentration. His passing and touch are sometimes really poor.

Defour moves quicker with the ball at his feet, all game he was carrying the ball well into their half unchallenged, changed direction leaving them wrongfooted then put the ball in the box ,Brady just needs to give the ball to him !

Inconsistent but that's why he's playing for us, good player!

Zesty · Post by **Zesty** » Sat Aug 19, 2017 6:01 pm

I've got no doubt that Brady will improve a lot, be a key player for us by the end of the season. Score a lot of free kicks too.

Lancasterclaret · Post by **Lancasterclaret** » Sat Aug 19, 2017 6:37 pm

Did well in patches, and not well in patches.

But overall a big improvement on last season

Devils_Advocate · Post by **Devils_Advocate** » Sat Aug 19, 2017 6:40 pm

Gets on the ball in the opposition half more than any other player in our team and plays with an attacking intent so its no surprise that he appears to make more mistakes and give the ball away more than others

That said he can do better than he did today

ClaretAL · Post by **ClaretAL** » Sat Aug 19, 2017 6:40 pm

I just don't believe some on here at times. From attending the match Beady and everyone else put a shift in today, the movement and passing was a pleasure to watch. It's not all about who is on the ball, Brady pulled their midfield all over the place today freeing Cork and Defore up with space to play the probing passes which was absolutely fantastic to see at times. The only poor part of that match was Kanu having Ben Mee in his pocket while he was on the pitch where as when Ben had Jay Rod to deal with Ben won every time. Great match and a pleasure to watch, we just couldn't hit the target, if was just one of those days unfortunately.

I thought Brady and Gudmunson were not wide enough until it was too late. We were far too deep.

Blackrod · Post by **Blackrod** » Sat Aug 19, 2017 6:56 pm

He looked better than last season but he wasn't great today by any means.

Right_winger · Post by **Right_winger** » Sat Aug 19, 2017 7:21 pm

Thought he had a reasonable game to be fair. Both Brady and JBG are playing far too deep though as per Dyches instructions.

Rileybobs · Post by **Rileybobs** » Sat Aug 19, 2017 7:25 pm

Looks great at times but then does some inexplicable things at others.

IndigoLake · Post by **IndigoLake** » Sat Aug 19, 2017 7:30 pm

I think it's important to remember that most wing players are quite inconsistent, save for the best in the world. We can apply this to Gudmundsson and Arfield as well as Boyd when he was here. Brady will improve as the season goes on and he's an important player to have on the pitch for his dead ball ability as well as his crossing.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Aug 19, 2017 7:33 pm

As Dyche told him, he just needs to move it quicker in certain situations

Walt · Post by **Walt** » Sat Aug 19, 2017 8:04 pm

Brady was crap today. However we did play some nice football at times, with a bit more cutting edge which I've no doubt Brady can be an integral part of we'll be fine i reckon.

Top Claret · Post by **Top Claret** » Sat Aug 19, 2017 8:23 pm

Brady played well today and he was our most influential play maker , especially 1st half. He linked up well with Ward and was possibly his best game in a Burnley shirt

Claretmatt4 · Post by **Claretmatt4** » Sat Aug 19, 2017 8:25 pm

I thought he did alright, made some good runs down the wing. Faded second half

BabylonClaret · Post by **BabylonClaret** » Sat Aug 19, 2017 8:34 pm

No awful. Some delightful touches at times and yet at others very sloppy. Not his best today but he's a good player and will be immense for us this season.

superdimitri · Post by **superdimitri** » Sat Aug 19, 2017 8:43 pm

He seems to lose concentration sometimes, hopefully he improves.

SGr · Post by **SGr** » Sat Aug 19, 2017 8:51 pm

I thought he played very well first half. Second half he did spend too much time on the ball, but I think "very poor" as an overall review of his performance is a bit far

Jambounchained · Post by **Jambounchained** » Sat Aug 19, 2017 9:10 pm

I thought today was the best I’d seen him play to be honest.

Gave it away a few times but all in all I thought he did quite well.

IanMcL · Post by **IanMcL** » Sun Aug 20, 2017 11:41 am

When I watched Robertson on MOTD, I remembered how much he would have electrified us, down the left. Brady a pale shadow by comparison.

superdimitri · Post by **superdimitri** » Thu Aug 24, 2017 1:27 am

Its great to see we finally have a winger like Brady who is great at making things happen. Do you think he will get better and better or are we going to have to get used to the fact as a forward thinking player he is bound to come up with frustratingly bad passes from time to time? Fantastic player but also frustrating at times, I think because he would be so much better if he cleaned that lack of concentration up! I really want his final ball to get better!

cricketfieldclarets · Post by **cricketfieldclarets** » Thu Aug 24, 2017 1:29 am

Brady will lose it more than Boyd for example. But thats because he will try more things.

I try not to get frustrated if he loses the ball as usually its when hes trying to beat a man with trickery.

This is exactly right. Thing is Brady usually produces in a match that moment of magic which unlocks a defence. We desperately require a couple more players in this mould.

Best player on the park for me tonight. Covered well defensively too.

superdimitri · Post by **superdimitri** » Thu Aug 24, 2017 1:34 am

Thats what you expect, but sometimes you see him produce a completely wayward pass even when he isn't under pressure. Perhaps if he didn't make the odd mistake he would still be playing for Man UTD.

Brady is class. He was, is, and always will be. We have a great left winger. Not too dissimilar from a better David Eyres, believe me I loved Eyresy!!! Brady is a good en

MACCA · Post by **MACCA** » Thu Aug 24, 2017 7:45 am

He's that little bit of magic that can win you games or points, just like last night.

Due to watching on tv, I also noticed him starting at our trying to win the ball back, or make Rovers go backwards, which he did very successfully several times.

Already looks better than last season, which could get us a dozen points alone, just with his assists/goals.

Rileybobs · Post by **Rileybobs** » Thu Aug 24, 2017 7:49 am

I hate it when we play wingers on the wrong side. It means they have to cut in and play an in-swinging cross which we never score from.

Indeed. Saw he make a tackle in our right hand corner. Had a good game.
