  1. Only managed to watch the 2nd half.

    Dack's movement was a joy to watch. Seems like he's back to full fitness and confidence.
    Pears caught almost everything thrown at him. Mr Safe Hands
    JRC was good too when he came on, bar a back header pass which Pears got to it first.

    Felt like we need a big target man upfront so that we can lump the ball too when we need to release the pressure. All the passing at the back was nervy to watch.

  2. Don't think we will finish 3rd. Happy with a playoff spot.

    The points needed for 6th place in the last 5 seasons are around >70 points. We are still about 30 points away, which means we need 10 wins from the last 20. The fastest we get to that the better. I don't believe our football philosophy will change drastically now, so let's just scrape as many points as we can. We definitely need Diaz to start firing again or JDT to bring in a striker who can score goals.

     

  3. We have a problem scoring goals or even creating them. JDT needs to solve this, especially our defence is not great either. 

    Diaz seems to be really off-form at the moment, gets into some good positions but he's not hitting the back of the net.

    Gally/Hedges full of running but really nothing fruitful comes out of it.

    Dack is a positive today!

  4. Was the result unexpected? No. But to put a derby game on the plate for them is out of order.

    Baffling starting lineup, Mola? Garrett? Brittain at LB, Hedges again at RWB. Scott Wharton on bench. Adam Wharton missing. Dack only came on with 15 mins left? Bringing on Bucko? So many weird decisions. And of course, the passing around in the defence has got to stop. Every time Mola, Ayala, Hyam gets the ball, the Burnley forward line pushes and pressures our defenders and we ended up giving the ball away in our own half. JDT got to sort this out. It has been coming since many games ago but we got away with it. This time in a derby game, Burnley punished us dearly. 

    They are not even spectacular of any sorts. Their football is just efficient to beat us with ease. It was men vs boys.

    Kalminski (had 2 other great saves) and probably Brittain are our better players today. Poor poor performance which we finally got punished. Let's hope JDT will sort this out in the next month and using this defeat to keep ringing into the players ears during the world cup break.
