TLW picks the team v Burnley

[billypilgrimnz]

All I can say is that Balotelli is lucky he is on the bench, because this would all be his fault otherwise.

[billypilgrimnz]

Shot on target. Happy days are here again.

[jsjazz]

Sakho is a fucking disgrace, stop backing up into the penalty area you idiot.

Sakho is the only one of our center backs with any pace or physical stature.

Looks ungainly, I'll give you, but he's probably the best of the bunch at the moment.

It's almost like we weren't that great when losing 3-0 to a terrible manc side and just about taking a point from an abysmal Arsenal team.

I detect sarcasm there you prick, say what you want about them performances but we did play with some tempo & pressing, yeah, we were shit but at least there was something there. This game? The same can't be said so far. No excuse to come out & play this bad, no pressing, can't pass etc etc

[Anubis]

Sunderland winning. If things stay the same they'll  go above us.

[RoboRiise]

Firstly, bollocks is Jones injured.  Not having it at all, no sign of it whatsoever in the game.

 

Secondly, this is pure unmitigated dogshit.

[El Dangerous]

The two/three teams we looked good against were mentally scarred from last years thrashings.

The players will usually get up for the bigger games, even Woy's team were capable of that.

[Brigant Moloch]

if Brendan spent half as much time working on tactics, defending & playing his best players as he does on throwing his own players under the bus we'd be champions. Of the world.

Why would he pull Brad Jones after 17 minutes for playing like Brad Jones usually does? It must be an injury.

[Phoenix]

Indeed. If Spurs had bothered attacking us in that game, they might have found it that we were rubbish.

 

Arsenal leaving a gap between Defence and Midfield, probably worried about getting done on the counter like last year.

[billypilgrimnz]

Burnley are pretty shit up front, and they look more threatening than we do.

[Jairzinho]

Pure shite.

[Red House]

If there's somehow gonna be a goal in this game, Burnley looks like the only team likely to get it. Seems like we gonna have to rely on an individual piece of brilliance or opponent's error again.

[Red Phoenix]

He stood and watched a shot hit the post just before Mig got ready, it could've been that. (not saying it was, could've been though.)

[Ginny]

Kolo putting in a shift here

[billypilgrimnz]

Fucking hell, it's a mini-siege at the moment

[RoboRiise]

Why would he pull Brad Jones after 17 minutes for playing like Brad Jones usually does? It must be an injury.

 

Because he's seen his arse maybe.  Did you see any sign at all of an injury?  Even a wince?

[Bobby Hundreds]

Wish we'd push more bodies forward and try and play it across the pitch rather than going for a near impossible through ball every time. Now and then yeah but mix it up.

[Anubis]

Hull equalise against Sunderland, thankfully.

If we win it'll be a masterstroke, a MASTERSTROKE I tells ye!

[RoboRiise]

Fuck me blind.  We could play Mignolet and Jones and I wouldn't have any confidence at us stopping even the weakest shots.

[Jhinge Machha]

Hull equalise against Sunderland, thankfully.

yesss!! the footballing gods are on our side today it seems

[billypilgrimnz]

Okay, who's going to point out to Rodgers that Markovic is not a wing back? We have a perfectly good one in Moreno just sitting there.

[billypilgrimnz]

Fuck me blind.  We could play Mignolet and Jones and I wouldn't have any confidence at us stopping even the weakest shots.

 

Luckily for all their shots, they are yet to get one on target.

[Anubis]

United further ahead. Everton go one down at the Pit. Booing ensues.
