Luckily I put him in for today's game with Wood.
It's usually the players I transfer out that score.

Nothing to do with our defenders putting them off their ability to strike with the composure that would have secured them a point, ok, whatever. Isn't it a coincidence that so many opposition strikers have been unable to finish against us this season because of their poor finishing? Wonder why that is?

It wantnthe defense that was all over the shop, it was the midfield that was non existent in the second half.
Leicester either bypassed it completely by going over the top or ran through it unchallenged.
I like both Cork & Westwood but they were little more than spectators in the second half imo

I notice this time round it is Tarkowski who is being played on his unfamiliar side (the left) to let Long play on his stronger side.

Let us down? You talk of a player "letting us down" because on the day he wasn't good enough against Spurs? Watching Burnley all these years has given you very high standards.
I wouldn't talk of anyone letting us down if he has played his honest best and on the day it wasn't good enough. Especially a reserve.

Where have I given abuse? And what was the question? If you’re asking did I see the Spurs game then yes, I’ve seen every league game this season.

What utter garbage.
Not one player has let us down this season, I don't think Hendrick has had a good season for us but I wouldn't in a million years say he has let us down.
Long got caught out by a diving Ali and a world class striker in Kane. That's all.

A very good player. Maguire is widely tipped as part of our World Cup back 3 and Long beat him all ends up on Saturday!

Best to accept that different people have different opinions on a variety of subjects and no point in labouring the subject of one disagreement.

Leicester had enough chances especially Vardy to have buried us

Most teams have lots of chances and lots of possession against us .....and most teams don't bury us. Now why would that be??

The answer is contained in the ‘Is Dyche a magician?’ thread. In essence the stats prove that because of our positional play a ‘chance’ against Burnley is far harder to convert than against any other club
