MC Prussian Posted 26 April 2015 Posted 26 April 2015 What was he saying? "I've just called to praise Nigel Pearson. ... A lot of fans wanted him sacked at the end of last year, but that was all mind games." "First run of four wins in a row in the top flight since 1936." "Nothing's changed about his (Pearson's) approach, apart from the fact that he's realized he needs to win games to stay in the Premier League."
nlukka Posted 26 April 2015 Posted 26 April 2015 Burnley sit deep and play long balls, our high pressing game would not have worked in this game, we had to slightly change our approach. We did that very well and took home the three points. I don't buy the we got lucky, can you point to a point in the game where we got lucky? Our goal was down to an outstanding cross from Albrighton which have their defender no choice but to stick out a leg, Vardy followed up like all good forwards should. Kaspers saves were down to his quality not luck. The penalty miss just meant Taylor didn't have the quality to score from 12 yards. People have been talking about luck all season things that are down to luck are dodgy refereeing decisions or wicked deflections, everything else is down to skill on the day we had the quality to score Burnley didn't. Also bar the penalty, did Konchesky really have that bad a game? Yes it was an error for the penalty but I can't think of anything else he did wrong the whole game. Burnley did nothing down his side. Agree with this completely, thought he actually had a fairly decent game (penalty incident aside). He's obviously not going to have the same attacking impact as Schlupp but largely he defended well. Having watched the highlights back, Burnley rarely troubled us once we went a goal ahead; apart from Kasper's superb save from the deflected Mee shot we saw the game out relatively well. It wasn't luck that won us the game, it was our quality and determination to see the game out.

BoyJones Posted 26 April 2015 Posted 26 April 2015 Good day out yesterday, from the bacon butties, free meat pies / drinks and well earned three points. Had a good laugh in the Burnley cricket club as well, felt sorry for the opening batsman bowled by that spinner, came off to 200-300 fans singing "Cheerio Cheerio" "you're not very good" etc. Can't see why people are moaning about the performance, clearly a poor game but city did enough to win. Could have gone a couple of gears higher if needed. Kasper played well, but in reality he would have been gutted if he hadn't have made those saves. Unfortunately we had parked at the home end and after the match got some of the worst verbal abuse I have heard in 50 years of away matches. Only city fans walking through a 100 or so Burnley fans, every other one had something to comment. Quite a few tried to hit shoulders with us to start something but me and the lad kept on walking with big smiles on our faces. Anyway back on the M65 by 525 and back in civilisation by 730.

Sorry to hear that, well done in your reaction.
deep blue Posted 26 April 2015 Posted 26 April 2015 I dont understand football? I'm not on here for a slanging match mate, all I'm saying is I didn't think in terms of trying to win the game we did enough, and that inevitably puts us on the back foot which doesn't suit us. I agree the last three were shit or bust games but that seems to be the only reason Pearson 'found' our winning formula again. You agree with me we were lucky to win the game, against a poor side. We are better than that, but there is a correlation to our winning games and us setting out to win games. Every time we don't start with that mentality we play poorly. We got away with it yesterday, but more of that and we will be back in the shit. IMO if that's ok - me 'knowing nothing about football' notwithstanding I agree we should start games on the front foot and attack, but don't you think that our tactics were dictated by our injury situation, by the loss of 2 of our speedier players. With Konch in the team our attacking capability down the left is immediately blunted.
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 26 April 2015 Posted 26 April 2015 Can't believe their player only got booked for a blatant kick to Kings stomach. Despicable act of cowardice.
RonnieTodger Posted 26 April 2015 Posted 26 April 2015 Sean Dyche actually said "market leaders" in his programme notes hahahahaha

premier blues Posted 26 April 2015 Posted 26 April 2015 Did anyone else notice yesterday when burnley missed their penalty they flashed up GOAL on the scoreboard hilarious. The term premature springs to mind Cricket ground was funny banter bet the cricketers couldn't concentrate either Great day all round COYB
NZ_Foxile Posted 26 April 2015 Posted 26 April 2015 Sean Dyche actually said "market leaders" in his programme notes hahahahahaI wanted to post this yesterday before the match, but couldn't get a phone signal at Turf Moor. Can't believe he's still wittering on about market leaders, even in his programme notes. Poor poor Burnleh!

bovril Posted 26 April 2015 Posted 26 April 2015 I believe he's used the verb 'to concertina' without fully realising what it means.

We won't set up to attack attack attack in every game. Particularly when we are forced to play the likes of Paul Konchesky due to injury. We won, so Pearson got it right.

Gerard Posted 26 April 2015 Posted 26 April 2015 Lets be honest, Vardy's 25mm drive should be goal of the season... Was it that far out?
Gerard Posted 26 April 2015 Posted 26 April 2015 My grandad died on April 2nd. Since then we've won every single game. Thank you Leicester City for helping me and my dad cope with our grief. My best mate and faithful dog, Nelson the doberman died on 31st March and I've thought the same thing. Perhaps your grandad is taking him for his walks up above.
BoyJones Posted 26 April 2015 Posted 26 April 2015 Cheers FIF, but self preservation probably had a bit to do with it!! Looking at earlier comments, I think Dyche is probably a decent bloke, but needs to focus on his own team. His comments re other teams finances smacks of having already accepted the inevitable relegation from day one. He could learn by taking a leaf out of Nigel Pearson's book who only focuses on his own team and doesn't waste breath on outside aspects he can't control or influence.
Silverdaz Posted 27 April 2015 Posted 27 April 2015 Nugent, Schlupp and Moore were sitting just in front of us in the away end, Nugent was heading and kicking the ball everytime it went near the goal , good to see our injured players still want to be part of the team
