I didn't boo last Saturday (I very rarely have in all my time watching us) but understood why people did. It wasn't the one game in isolation but seeing us play the same toothless football week after week.
The plan didn't work today because the defence didn't keep a clean sheet, when that starts happening we won't win many games. The facts are that after the first two fixtures we have scored more than one goal only twice in eleven games.

Re: Match thread and team
Might be time to shoehorn Egan in as a 3rd centre back, have Hannibal protecting them and Laurent as the playmaker.
Roberts, Humphreys, Anthony and Cullen are in danger of loosing their places. Flemming back in, with Hountondji seen as an option to start or come on from the bench.

Re: Match thread and team
I actually posted after the win against Leeds that 1-0 is a score line that Burnley fans should get used to. Leeds United sold a lot of their talent in the Summer but still retained players who still carry far more threat than we possess and can find the back of the net, such as Piroe. 13 games gone and we haven’t got got a forward on 3 or more goals.Goody1975 wrote: ↑Sun Nov 03, 2024 5:37 pmI didn't boo last Saturday (I very rarely have in all my time watching us) but understood why people did.

None of those players are in danger of losing their places because there's no one in the same ball park of quality to replace them.Darnhill Claret wrote: ↑Sun Nov 03, 2024 5:41 pmMight be time to shoehorn Egan in as a 3rd centre back, have Hannibal protecting them and Laurent as the playmaker.

Re: Match thread and team
So we haven't got a strong squad, where we could experiment with different combinations or different tactics? OK then.

Parker is under appreciated by fans
The growth we have seen under his tutelage is overwhelming.
