Burnley (H).. Up next.. Thoughts?

Recommended Posts

Posted

I think the line up against Everton would be ideal for this.

 

I know a lot of people didn't like Chilwell left mid but i'd like to see it tried again. I also think after all his hints at rotation there may well be a start for Dragovic, whether that be at CB or RB i don't know.

 

So

 

Kasper

 

Drag

Morgan

Maguire

Fuchs

 

Gray

N'didi

Iborra

Chilwell

 

Mahrez

Vardy

Can see it being a frustrating draw. It'll be a totally different game to tonight.

 

Exactly what I think as they'll set up in a similar manner as they have when playing the big boys, lot of people on here are underestimating Burnley.

So we spend the last few days mocking Spurs for their overconfidence and arrogance on their match thread, then serve up exactly the same for Burnley. Typical.

 

They're a very well-organised team playing some good stuff at the minute. I'm hoping we can beat them, but they've turned better sides than us over already this season- it certainly won't be easy.

I don't expect Puel and the players will discount Burnley like many on here have done and good job really as they're an organised, difficult team to beat at the moment.

 

It's that kind of overconfidence and lack of respect that will see them beat us. We need to play these like we played Spurs - 100% commitment and we will win.

I think last night showed Riyad and Gray at the same time is probably a risk to the overall team .

20 mins for Gray worked Ok.

Burnley should be beaten if we show some serious intent -same team but don't hesitate to use the subs and don't sit deep  back on a lead

thought they played pretty well together in the Everton game tbh and not too bad at Stoke as well

If Dyche knew how much Musa and Slimani cost, in particular, and how little input they had, he'd be fuming at the waste of money..

Douche would whine about the cost of riyad tbf. Mostly because he's shit at transfers and needs to deflect.

Depends on your definition, they will surrender possession, sit back and wait for us to make a mistake. They've strung a few decent moves together, but primarily they really do sit very deep and just invite teams onto them. They had 39% possession at home to Swansea! They have the second worst possession stats in the whole league.

I don't think they will just put 10 men behind the ball all game and defend like crazy. They are better away than at home this season.

Can't see anything other than a home win.

2-0

Burnley playing away tonight. so they won't train tomorrow.  This probably means they can only prepare and train Friday and come down to Leicester Saturday am or late on Friday. Whichever way you look at it , it's far from ideal for them. Meanwhile we get the whole of Thursday and Friday to sort out how we approach the game. 

 

This alone one gives us a big advantage. I can only think they will try and sort out a few attacking set pieces targeted against our perceived (and actual) weaknesses plus a broad formation to counter our likely setup. if we can't get a win from this wil be very dissapointing if only for the above reasons

As the above poster said they're away from is superb this season.

They use Chris wood as a target man and it works well for them. I can see him scoring against us. 

Posted

whilst they are playing full of confidence so far this season and deserve respect for that I do feel we have the talent and flair to beat them .... but, and here’s the big butt! (Clearly not Rachel’s!) it depends which of the spudder beaters or the hampered hammers humdrum team turns up? .... play like we did against West hamper and we are lunchmeat .... hell, I need a sandwiches break!

Posted

We'll need to be patient in this one. Low scoring game I would expect but a draw won't be the end of the world.

 

Could go either way but Burnley must fancy it.

Posted

Rekon we are good for this. They will be set out for a draw and no mistake so hopefully we can get out the traps quickly. 

Posted

If we win we stay 9th but close the gap on Watford (hoping for a Spurs win). After this we got back to back away games at Newcastle and Southampton so we need 3 points. 

Posted

Burnley deserve, the respect, that we cryed for in our title season.

So lets not get spitefull or snidey.They are having a great season, deserve to be where they are.

 

This wont be any easy game, though I do have us down for a close win...

Sean Dyche is doing a top job, and its great to see a new name holding 6-8th in the PL.

Wouldnt it be great, if Leicester, Watford, Burnley could push Spurs from that top 6 position.

Early days though..early days...

While Wes is sixth in the PL in blocked shots, and Simpson is 7th ... 

 

Burnley have three in the top ten, including Tarkowski and Mee at #1 and #2.    :wes: Clearly satisifed to invite pressure, with the CBs to make it work.  Gaps will not be easy to create.
