Mighty Clarets versus Tottingham Hotspur

[starting_11]

Defour booked - is that him suspended for the next game ?

no. said 4th on BT.

[joey13]

It is just possible that we may not win another point over Christmas. A few tough games that could really test our defence!

Take care folks.

We’ll beat Huddersfield

[CombatClaret]

We were crap, Kane was on form.
Different referee wouldn't have changed the outcome.

[piston broke]

Chin up lads.
We had 6 of our starters missing after Wood went off.
Oliver was p1ss poor. nothing wrong with Sams' header and Ash clearly takes an elbow to the chin as he gets his header away.
The defending was shocking.Dallying on the ball whilst they were closing us down so quickly.
Every goal was down to our mistakes.

have a great Xmas and be with you Tuesday.

[FCBurnley]

We now know how good Tarks is. Mee was a one man defence. Will lose at Huddersfield if this is our team. Long was a joke. Totally outplayed. Not said that for a long time. Vent over

[Blyclaret]

Some good news
Now we definitely know Kevin along is not good enough
No where near premier league standard.

[California Colner]

Very poor all round today
They much much quicker every where on the pitch
Lucky not to get beat 6-0
Much better performance needed at Old Trafford
Merry Xmas to all

[Iloveyoubrady]

Wells' 1st touch was greedy and poor.

What was it?

Testing

99.9% of us saw that at Accrington Stanley..... twice

[California Colner]

I would not beat Kevin Long up to much
Remember he was up against one of England’s best forwards ever

[warksclaret]

Realise today how vulnerable our squad is. Could have been 6-0.We are missing the stability of the nucleus of the team starting. Thought Pope's kicking was poor and too many players went missing. Still let's get that one out of the way and rebuild. Thought Taylor had a good second half

Lets hope it makes us move quick in the market in the next week or so. Think we need a better solution to whoever plays behind Woods or Barnes-my guess is Walters could come into this role, Don't think Hendrick or Arfield can play it

Wow, do you watch all the way from Califonia? Kane one of England's best ever? EVER?

You'll be calling New up for England next ha ha ha

[Caernarfon_Claret]

I have no problem with Spurs beating us and I'm sure they would have done without Kane and Alli, but they'll have two more games being able to play with two players they should be without.

I think Spurs will get some shoddy decisions against them when they come against the big teams in The Champions League - be interesting to see how the manager, players and fans react when it happens.

[JimmyRobbo]

What was it?

Yes.

What I meant was that it was his first touch of the match after coming on. He held the ball and allowed himself to be closed down when he should have given it to the man moving outside him (can't remember who). Instead, he gave the ball away and we were back defending.

It wasn't a comment on his general touch and technique "1st touch".

[Rick_Muller]

I was expecting Spurs to be good today, trouble is they’ve spoilt it for themselves by the way they (well to be fair - Dele Alli) has gone about it. Both he and Kane in a fair universe wouldn’t have been playing today, and it may have been different. As it is the “footballing Gods” conspire against plucky lil’ol Burnley when they play against a traditional top 6 team

So are you suggesting he isn't? Give your head a wobble, he is superb.
Touch, pace, strength but above all finishing. Whether he is striking it or stroking it he is very rarely off target and he is the best volleyer since Shearer.

I watched the Euro's

1 of England's best EVER...

Really?

He's good. One of the best in the Prem at the moment.

He's good because his all-round game is good. Very few weaknesses. The whole is much greater than the sum of the parts.

One of our best ever? Not within a country mile.

[California Colner]

How many hat tricks this season has he had?
