Burnley (A) - Tue 26th Dec 2023 (5:30pm)

[Bobby Hundreds]

We are incredibly frustrating to watch most of the time. I still think we push too many bodies forward they over complicate it themselves.

As soon as we get in the box, it's like the players boots get magically laced together.

We're like the fucking Chuckle Brothers up front.

[johnsusername]

We need a striker. Someone who doesn't shit themselves in the box. 

 

Saying that we should be two nil up. Disgraceful decision.

Im sorry but thats fucking shite. Burnley are truly awful. We are so slow and wasteful.

 

Are we just asking them to get back in the game or what? Side to side, slow boring passing. Up the fucking tempo.

14 shots, 8 on target. Hardly any of them speculative, but chances created through good play.

[Em City]

Maybe we should keep playing Gakpo in the position he's been playing in for 90% of his career. Crazy idea, but it just might work.

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

Looked like the correct decision in real time to disallow that goal but I'd have to watch it back. I'm sure they'll show it at HT.

 

Refs a bit of a dick but our problems are 95% our own making here.

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

Started very well, and should’ve been in front by two or three inside the first 25 minutes. Then slowed down and let them in the game. Like others have said above, bad decision making and a lack of quality in the final third has let us down.

 

Nunez, Gakpo and Trent our best players I thought, Endo also good but one big mistake from him that could have cost us. Salah poor again, which is becoming a habit now. His other habit of course is getting a goal despite being poor, let’s hope he keeps that up today as well.

 

Edit: Forgot to write that the ref probably cheated us of a goal, but piss poor/biased refereeing is only normal these days, so easy to forget.

[Caramac]

[Elite]

We flow like a river that's home to Beavers with OCD.

[Carvalho Diablo]

Wtf is this silly cow on about? Open game? Chances at both ends?
What fucking game is she watching?

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

Yea that was soft, I was wrong. Looked pretty clear on real time.

 

This it's one of those, var wouldn't overturn the ref either way with that.

It's definitely the wrong decision.

 

I'm surprised after Nunez scored the ref didn't disallow it because of the foul on Nunez a bit earlier.

[Freddo]

We need to be far more clinical here. Put these to bed and go home. Our poor shooting will hurt us at some stage. Let's get out there and batter them.

[Jairzinho]

Surely one question that has to be asked of any potential premier League referee is, "Are you from fucking Wigan?"

[Bobby Hundreds]

Is that Simon Hooper on VAR? The corrupt prick of a man.

She’s watching the Von Dyke game

This is becoming ridiculous now the narrative around VAR....defending it because error is not 'clear and obvious' and 'if the ref had let it go unpunished they wouldn't have overturned it'....

 

How about focusing on arriving at the correct decision regardless of what ref has done.

 

It's a joke - whole way it is approached is a shambles.

Whole way VAR usage is approached is a shambles and the narrative around it is wrong.

 

Nothing in that Nunez challenge and a perfectly good goal is disallowed, VAR should be correcting that sort of thing....use it positively instead of always negatively.

Have to object, it’s been ridiculous for a long time.

Fair point

Kompany's got one of Cher's jackets on.

Kompany managing to take the trophy of worst beard in the league amongst a crowded field.

This season has gone up a level in terms of incompetence.
