They are not that good. We should have put 3 or 4 past them. How do teams keep losing to this lot? If we played them again next week I'd put money on us winning 3-0.

 

Can't wait til we go above them. 

Rubbish aren't they. Beggars belief they keep on winning. Although they are also one of the luckiest sides I've seen for a while too. Hopefully teams will start taking them seriously and preparing properly for games with them and they'll drop like a stone

Stoke and Palace need to flush down to the Championship.

For all the praise Marco Silva and Watford have had this season they seem to struggle do the most basic of things.

And take West Brom with them.

If i was a Watford fan i'd be devastated about losing that game to Palace. 85+ min going down to 10 men and then letting in x2 goals. 

 

Great news for us though  

[Corky]

We are sounding slightly bitter on here. Burnley have found a way of winning games with a quite limited team, fair play to them.

[Stevosevic]

Palace result is good for us. Let's extend our lead over 9th place tomorrow.

They were mediocre last week against us but people said we would get found out as 2015/16 progressed....

 

It's a funny old game

Might give Palace confidence for Saturday though? 

[rn9013]

I don’t get the bitterness towards Burnley. Fair play to them in my eyes. 

 

Of all the clubs we should be the ones saying Burnley CAN finish in the top 4 (however unlikely), and I for one would love to see them do it. 

[Corky]

Stoke don't really bother me but Mark Hughes is a right pain in the arse so good to see him struggling.

Yeah that’s my only worry tbh, unbeaten in 6 now so they’ll be confident. So should we, but makes the game more difficult.

Hmm thats a good point, i didnt think of that  BUT still think with our momentum atm we will smash them Especially as we are at home.

Likewise with Burnley tbf.  They don't bother me that much but Dyche is a penis and a pain in the neck. So I want him to fail badly.

That's assuming we beat a decent soton side tomorrow and keep up the momentum ?

Difference being we had world class players in Mahrez and Kante and scored a bag load of goals... Burnley’s style isn’t one that will keep them there. They will likely lose too many games. Great achievement no doubt and top 7 or 8 could be on but not finishing above any of the top six. We only lost 3 games all season and that was only to arsenal and Liverpool 

I don’t disagree with you but they are where they are on merit and results. The table doesn’t lie. I don’t like Burnley or Diche but let’s show them a bit more respect eh?

[Tuna]

Palace seem to score a lot of late goals.

Would a draw count as us losing our momentum? I would like to think not, and im really hoping we can get at worst a draw out of tomorrows game.

 

 

[EastAnglianFox]

Unbelievable how many late goals/incidents happen at Selhurst this season.

 

So hard to call a cert for relegation as pretty much everybody bar the big 6 can beat each other on any given day without it being seen as a major shock.

I think he's a poor manager who uses his reputation to get big name players and doesn't know what to do with them.

 

How many young players has he brought through whilst at Stoke? How many players has he improved? I'm struggling to answer that.

Interesting shot stats for palace and Burnley, Burnley had 2 shots on target both coming very late in the second half with the second being the goal

palace had 4 shots on target but the first 3 shots resulted in the first goal after a double save from gomez the 4th was obviously a goal as well

We always lose 2-0 at st Mary’s. Or it seems so. Only time I remember us winning there is Matt mills and Nugent in 12/13???

[Spudulike]

5-Live comparing Burnley to us again

 

FFS we are BIGGER than fooking Burnley

[Tuna]

Burnley won't cope with European football.
