Burnley Match Thread

I seriously think we'll win this one.
2-0 or 2-1.

 

[Hazzman]

My brother has foreseen a 2-1 victory.

Stearman header from a corner, Ade replies and then Hammond strikes the winner.

I see a 0-0 draw.

Is it just me or is the fixture list feck up?

We have Burnley, Watford, Sheffield Utd and Crewe all in recent weeks.
Yet we are still to play Reading, Millwall, Norwich and Palace surely we should play these and not these teams we have already played.

Birch seemed to be hinting last night that we were going to play Kisnorbo and Joey as the middle two... then again he also seemed to be hinting that we'd play Dublin and de Vries up front and that can't be true......

With respect Birchenall knows feck all.

but on this occasion he was right.

Dublin De Vries front pairing (i cant understand this)

 

[Graz]

They've been working on attacking options for the 2 week break and I can't believe that Levein feels Dublin and De Vries is the best option after that! Seems very weird lineup considering Levein is trying to get the team scoring more...

Lineup is:

Douglas
Maybury, Gerrbrand, McCarthy, Nisse
Sylla, Gudjonsson, Kisnorbo, Smith
De Vries, Dion

Subs: Stearman, Hamill, Hammond, Hughes, Tiatto

No keeper on the bench, no Hume in the 16... odd. I don't really see the point in having the 3 midfielders on the bench... I would've had Hume there instead of Tiatto.


Hopefully Levein knows what he's doing and it pays off though. I wouldn't be suprised if we're playing a bit hoofish though with Dion upfront and 2 defensive midfielders in the centre who probably won't create all that much..

 

[glyn]

strange. very strange.

Hume must be injured, surely

 

[Scarby]

suppose its the option to play Smith up front if he needs to!!

I asked for that didn't I :icon_roll .I apologise for doubting you Leigh

 

[Leigh]

:icon_razz

I only mentioned it because he hangs around the training ground and the team is usually given out to the players on Friday.

 

[highland fox]

Maybe CL's thinking is to play his 2 Proven Goalscorers together,however Dublin hasn't been a Goalscorer for us since he's been here.I would imagine Hume picked up a knock in the International during midweek.IO think this could well be quite a Dull encounter.

 

[joe501]

the two towers up front. great. one is okay, but 2 big men??? 90 mins of hoof with these two bloody great big obelisks up front. Hopefully Levin knows what hes doing and is getting smith + sylla to put plenty of crosses in the box...

 

[highland fox]

is getting smith + sylla to put plenty of crosses in the box...

for Dublin to head over the Bar

 

[Leigh]

Well...this is thrilling....

 

[MKFox]

Crouch misses pen!

What's going on at Burnley?

 

[Xantha]

Might help if the commentators spent more time telling us what's going on in the game rather than talking about the missus and his socks...

Bring back Nev!

 

[Scarby]

come on leicester

 

[Xantha]

bugger.....

 

[joe501]

free header 1-0 was coming no attacking threat

 

[highland fox]

free header 0-1 was coming no attacking threat

Indeed,toothless in attack and too defensive in midfield.
