The difference is quality is one thing, but the difference in pressure and expectation is huge as well

I don't think he was being serious, he was actually doing the opposite and pointing out black people don't all look the same surely? The way he put it was rather vague and indirect. Only certain thing was suggesting was that I was being racist by saying two people looked alike in a way to me. Apologies if it did come across as that way to anyone who's honestly offende, there was no implication or intent from me to do tha

I don't think there was anything racist in either of the comments to be honest. You thought a player looked like Heskey, a few of us didn't, That's all there was to it. Certainly no suggestion of anything else on your part at all.

He really has dominated midfields at the highest level and it's sometimes interesting to hear when he talks about the 'heat of battle' in the middle and gives his views on that. He couples that with some strange assertions on other parts of the game though.

I didn't like his comment and had to adress it, hopefully thats all. Gonna watch Fulham anyway. They have to start picking up points if they're gonna stay up

But other times, I'm sat there scratching my head on why the hell he's said some bits. The Zaha thing being one of them
Jaspa Posted 26 August 2018 Posted 26 August 2018 Burnley equalise. Seems to me Fulham lack a breaker in midfield, Burnley just ran straight through them and squeezed it in
gurru991 Posted 26 August 2018 Posted 26 August 2018 The Fulham game is a good one so far, I'm enjoying it. It's great to watch teams outside the top six.

Was mainly the family stand - they will all be back for Spurs and Man U games . Seems like we are getting a bit of luck so far - probably change once we play the bigger sides . Great start though - usual .
Max Wall Posted 26 August 2018 Posted 26 August 2018 I know Dyche is a pain in the arse and does seem to have a strange obsession with us but you have to admire the jobs him and everyone else has done at Burnley. 20 years ago they were in the third tier. Their recent story isn't really that different to ours, (without the spectacular title win of course).

He has a solid proof of work with Burnley now, they were relegated and they stood by him, came straight back up and have grown from that. Thing with Dyche is though I don't think there are many other places it work out for him, he needs time to build squads to his idea with a solid ethos & belief in what he's doing. I can't see him going to say Newcastle and having it click without struggling and coming seriously close to the sack

Koke Posted 26 August 2018 Posted 26 August 2018 Newcastle without Benitez would 100% go down. Absolute terrible players.

Jaspa Posted 26 August 2018 Posted 26 August 2018 Fulham back ahead, corner to side of the box, floated in by Cairney and nodded in by Mitrovic at the back. I really, really don't rate Joe Hart, at all
Jaspa Posted 26 August 2018 Posted 26 August 2018 3-1 Burnley leggy after trying to attack back, countered & Mitro again. Fart grasping at air
KFS Posted 26 August 2018 Posted 26 August 2018 Burnley won't be in trouble much longer, they'll be out of Europa soon. Our own fault but they're a waste of a Europa League place
