Burnley (A) 5/12/18

[Baltar]

Brilliant. Who says our 2nd string isn't good enough? 

[mgw100]

Sturridge was decent I thought. 

[Aventus]

Love Alisson, he isn't just ace in goal and stops us conceding, his distribution directly sets up goals. 

 

I don't think I breathed or blinked in the entire time it was bouncing round our box to when it was bouncing round inside their net. 

 

When you get to the top teir players their price becomes irrelevant, there's only a handful of players at his level, only a handful of VVDs level, they become priceless. 

 

Started to see a bit of a glimpse of how we were playing last year, once it was 2-1 they seemed like they were having a bit of fun up front and could have scored more. 

 

More Shaqiri less problems.

The worst thing about that was having to suffer that clueless cunt Dowie.

Never fucking shut about Dyche and his shite Burnley team. 

He said that last year, Burnley would have found a way to win that 1 nil! Okay Ian you fucking melt. 

[Harry Squatter]

Brilliant win even though the first half was lame. We are made of sterner stuff these days.

[kop77]

There’s something that the Kop want you to know

The best in the world it’s Bobby Firmino

[bizzle10]

get in reds what a start in the league looks like pep and the arab oilmen might have to break sweat this year

[Stickman]

Brilliant win I know they're in a shit run of form but to go a goal behind and then come back can only help us in the long run....

Now same again (except the starting line up) on Saturday get a win and then see how City like to play catch up

That is lovely.

I thought Keita was excellent in the 2nd half

You thought correctly.

[Jairzinho]

Table looks good. Six points ahead of third, best defensive record in Europe, and sixteen points ahead of United.

Lovely stuff. And Chelsea lost.

Arse only drew against some mid-table no-marks, too.

I thought he was fucking horrendous. 

[Jairzinho]

I thought he was marginally less abysmal in the second half.

Pretty fucking annoying that we've won 12 drawn 3 and are still only in second, two points off top though.

It's still in our hands.

[A_S]

That's a seriously underrated dink from Mo with the outside of his foot.  Shaq didn't have to break stride. 

[Caramac]

Better

 

[magicrat]

Any news on Gomez?

[mgw100]

Nah, he's been way worse than that. I've probably misted over the first half, but in the second he used the ball pretty well and played a good pass through to Mo for the 3rd. He was ok.

By this stage in any normal season (even a good season) we would have dropped points to someone rubbish.  The only points we've dropped are draws to Arsenal, Chelsea and City.

 

We're good.

 

I just fucking hope Gomez's injury is short-term.

Is it Sturridge plays it to Salah? Great move, great goal.
