Mee joining Liverpool for £30 million. We'll have plenty of pound notes to buy a few Championship players. Your main concern will be to hold onto Dyche I imagine. Congratulations on a fantastic season by the way! Thought you rode your luck a bit much early season, but very strong showing lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought you rode your luck a bit much early season, but very strong showing lately. Thanks, but the best we played was from early October-early December (18 points from 8 games) before Brady was injured for the season at Leicester and then Defour injured in January. That left Gudmundsson as our only real creative player. Edited 2 May 2018 by lancyclaret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but I remember some very fortunate single-goal wins when you were largely under the cosh and scored with virtually your only shot on target. Fair play, your bubble hasn't burst.

Stadt Posted 2 May 2018 Share Posted 2 May 2018 3 hours ago, FIF said: It amazes me that you are so tough on Maguire and Ndidi compared to Mahrez. Maguire makes far far less defensive errors than Mahrez makes offensive errors. If you rated Mahrez in the same way you rate Maguire he'd be non-league standard. Maguire and Ndidi will both be playing in the world Cup this year. Mahrerz will be sitting at an airport terminal looking for a new destination. Offensive and defensive errors are completely different though as every player makes errors going forwards. Defensive errors basically define how good a defender is, if a centreback makes a mistake it likely leads to a goal. Maguire’s still been a fantastic signing and he is a good defender but some posters get carried away. The second part is daft. One player doesn’t make a national side.

I agree 100% with you that defensive errors basically define how good a defender is, where we disagree is that offensive errors basically define how good an offensive player is too - they lead to likely NOT scoring a goal. I'm surprised that you and others don't see this. Ronaldo is great because he doesn't make very many offensive errors and therefore each of his shots/touches have a high probability of resulting in goals. Mahrez touches have a low probability of resulting in goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we finished runners-up to Leicester in 2013/14, Burnley had the 15th highest wage bill. One day you'll submit a post that doesn't include the words "19th highest wage bill".

Not because people have perhaps been following Leicester for years and then the excitement prompted a search for a common forum to cheer and discuss with like-minded people. As for other fans opinions, I personally like an opinion with someone not wearing the blue tinted specs, I welcome it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, I don't mind the odd person chipping in when we have a game coming up against them or if there's something going on in the media between the clubs, but personally I come on here to wallow in all things Leicester City and I think yesterday I'd just had enough of hearing about Burnley and their 'wage bill' and people giving Burnley a 'nice pat on the head'.

What I would say is, how long will those fans hang around when inevitably things go the other way? Theres no way on this earth Burnley are going to build on this season. Absolutely no problems with fans enjoying their moment in the sun, we did exactly the same, but its easy to be a forum darling in the good times.
