Burnley post match 2-1 loss

[Dr The Singh]

Even playing shit, we created more chances and were the better team.  The 2 early goals killed us, Morgan and Simpson were shocking.

 

There goal keeper had a great game, also but some of our play was a joke

[Wasyls Pec Deck]

It’s not the manager - it’s some of the players. When the worst player by some distance wears the armband then there is a problem. We lost the game in the first 10 mins, and he was culpable for both (and Simpson for second). Wayward passing, all round clumsy. How he gets in the team is a joke - particularly as Dragovic suits the style of play more.

 

We were decent second half, and could possible even should have won it. But we cannot keep chasing games. Its not like Wes is all to blame, but it smacks of the manager not having the balls to drop a senior player. After his gaffe v Newcastle (and others) I’m convinced that this is a large reason that is costing us European football next season.

 

****ing fuming!

Sorry, that was undeserved.

 

We had a stack of chances and didn’t take them

And that, combined with piss poor defending, led to a deserved defeat. 

[thegaffa]

Simpson, Morgan and Okazaki are not good enough as first team starters anymore and are on the decline quite rapidly.

 

gray reminds me of Jermaine pennant, he has the talent but doesn't know what to do with it or the ball at times

 

puel sort it out or get out, simple as that.

[The Doctor]

Do feel like we've missed ndidi, wonder how it all might have panned out if the ref at Brighton had been halfway competent, but we shouldn't be needing him to make the centre backs look reasonable. Morgan has looked like the bombscare of first season back up at times, that's got the be the final straw, Drago and maguires for the last five at least.

[Callabinho]

I’m not part of the Puel our brigade, I think he needs a transfer window. However I’d imagine the target was Europe, which obviously isn’t going to happen, so I think he will get the sack.  

 

As for the game, spineless. It takes us about an hour to get going, were too predictable and too static. Major changes needed in the summer, otherwise the fairytale will be complete with a return to the championship. 

[kingfox]

Might as well use this gif again, sums us up perfectly recently.

[Hammo]

Same errors by Puel, I'm afraid. He doesn't learn, does he?

 

Try the halftime team talk BEFORE the game

[TheUltimateWinner]

Puel can’t be blamed for the individual errors that cost us today.

 

However he can be blamed for picking the players that made those errors. With Simpson at the moment we don’t have another option, but Morgan should be nowhere near the starting eleven.

 

I’m still puel in but he needs to show some backbone and drop him. He’s costing us points by continuing to play him.

Feel for Puel. Let down by shocking defensive errors and poor finishing. Thought we played well too. Burnley were dog shite. 

How can you feel for him?! He picks the team!!

 

How and why he is picking Morgan over Drago is anyones guess.

Were the better team. Simpson and Morgan need replacing (we knew that already) and Choudhury looks promising but isn’t premier league quality.

No we’re not, their team work was on another level to ours early on and all they did was do what was necessary. We needed 3 goals to even stand a chance of overhauling them in the league

[the fox]

We laugh at Burnley but they have a better team and play a style that suits their players. And they can actually defend.

Puel in for sure. Players who cannot manage intensity at the start of the match out. We can lose Morgan, Simpson, Huth, Benny, OKazaki, Kasper, and Mahrez IMO. Time for the big reset, let Puel build us a team that will play hard and that can fuching finish for god's sake. 

 

Vardy needs some real competition as well, he was shocking today, just awful.

+1 You for the parts i highlighted in bold 

 

However disagree totally with the other parts. Especially the part about Vardy. Yes he headed a ball to the goalkeeper but you cannot expect him to score every chance he has and them chance i was talking about are too and far between.

He absolutely must go before next season.

If you mean Puel, you're mad. His tactics put us in prime position. We dominated that 2H. Vardy flubbed an astonishing number of chances, and he was joined in the effort by his mates. It is always easy to blame the manager, but PLAYERS NEED TO SHOW UP WITH INTENSITY AT THE START OF THE GAME AND F'ING EXECUTE.

I don't why dosent he drop morgan he has been so poor since coming back.

[davieG]

Our tactics

 

On the bus 0 to 15 mins

On the beach 16 to 60 interspersed with some head tennis

Take the game seriously 61 to 90+

Much better 2nd half. Absolutely atrocious right across the pitch defensively. If Morgan and Simpson start the next match I'll be ****ing gobsmacked. 

 

Just shove Amartey and Drago in, It simply cannot be worse than our defence is right now, and will send them a clear message. 

 

Our entire team is pretty spineless at present, they only throw caution to the wind when we have nothing to lose, such a negative approach to football. Boring. 

I don't think Amartey will be fit, didn't he only start training again this week?

[AlloverthefloorYesNdidi]

We keep playing the wrong players who do not help us move on stylistically and are just not at it.

Morgan and Simpson at fault for the goals. Dont know why we play Shinji atm

Should have been playing Silva more as I think with more pitch time he'd be less rusty, make less mistakes and be good for us

Its pretty annoying that we have to keep mahrez on even when he has a rubbish game. Kind of makes me want him gone so we can focus on the team

Puel is not to blame for the comical way we defend, although i dont know why he plays Morgan and Simpson, doesnt have to.

Hamza I thought did really well. Like him

We had so many chances, unlucky to lose, but deserved to after that start

Puel in.

What was Puels team talk that was so uninspiring!

 

Burnley fans going 'abroad' for the first time ever.  

Think you will find they played in the European cup 

[MC Prussian]

Groundhog day, I'm afraid.

 

We just don't want to win games, instead love to give the opposition the lead, throw away games in the first half, and experienced players behave shockingly on the pitch. Morgan has reached the end of his career, Simpson annoys me no end lately, Mahrez blows more cold than hot again, no impetus from neither central midfield nor Okazaki.

 

We needed a rebuild so desperately at least last summer, and look where it got us. Clinging onto 8th spot in a season where we can count ourselves lucky that more than half of the league is worse than we are.

 

Puel makes it easy for me not liking him as much as I should do with each passing game. But the story keeps repeating itself under his leadership and I'm asking myself why we keep making the same mistakes over and over again.

 

We've hit the self-destruction button in 2018 and seem to be pretty happy about it as a team. Just not arsed playing European football next season, simples.

[adamlcfcbevo85]

Same old same old under puel.

 

Play absolutly dog shite for 76 min's then try and grab a goal.

 

These tactics are shocking.

 

Funny isn't it every manager we have had sInce 2012 leicester fought from the first minute now the life has been suvked out our club.

 

Puel out

Would get rid of all 3 in a heart beat, shocking footballers, offer nothing to the team

edit 

and gray, allegedly a promising player, hasn’t shown anything to suggest that the last few seasons
