Suffolk exile Posted 18 January 2020 Posted 18 January 2020 Burnley are an awkward proposition. I am expecting a pretty tough game. I am expecting Fuchs at LB, Mendy DM & Albrighton for Barnes. We will need patience as they will make it difficult for us.

Deeg67 Posted 19 January 2020 Posted 19 January 2020 I have no idea if Sean's info is remotely valid but I don't hate that lineup. Praet was the only MF who bothered to turn up for Soton, he has to play. And Hamza looked overmatched as the sole holding MF - Mendy deserves a chance to start. And given that Burnley and Newcastle park the bus more than anybody in the league, you don't really need a destroyer back there, and Mendy's distribution is quicker and cleaner.

Japanfox Posted 19 January 2020 Posted 19 January 2020 Could see this being scoreless or a lucky 1-0 either way. Let's hope it is us. 🙏

Genuinely interested to know what stats you’re basing that on? Last season he made more tackles than any offensive player in the league and this season he’s made the 6 most tackles of anyone in our squad despite player fewer minutes than those around him on the list? Not saying you’re wrong I’m just genuinely interested. Empirically, what makes you confident he jumps out if 50/50s? X
copunk Posted 19 January 2020 Posted 19 January 2020 A very hard game to bounce back from a defeat with, having the results go our way yesterday i genuinely wouldnt be too dissapointed with taking a point today
foxfanazer Posted 19 January 2020 Posted 19 January 2020 This game feels huge! They should be bang up for it as well. No Ashley Barnes for them is a plus but I just have so much more confidence with Wilf in the side. I'm making no predictions for this one
whoareyaaa Posted 19 January 2020 Posted 19 January 2020 After a weeks rest we should be a lot fresher and we are usually pretty good away from home they will try and ruffle us up no doubt but our quality should see us through
Pliskin Posted 19 January 2020 Posted 19 January 2020 I wonder if Evans will play today considering what happened to Cory yesterday?

Pliskin Posted 19 January 2020 Posted 19 January 2020 Just now, foxfanazer said: What did happen? He’s suffered a pretty nasty injury, fractured skull and eye socket I believe.

FoxFromCoalville Posted 19 January 2020 Posted 19 January 2020 Must win today. A lot of the teams around us have dropped points over the weekend so a great chance to capitalise and make it not count for them.
lgfualol Posted 19 January 2020 Posted 19 January 2020 Hope Burnley don't try to injure all our players like they usually do against teams. Mee enjoys a leg break.
mozartfox Posted 19 January 2020 Posted 19 January 2020 Can’t wait for the match thread. Always a positive and rational read........
lestajigs Posted 19 January 2020 Posted 19 January 2020 If we win today and man u loose, should be enough to finish top 4, the gap will be too big for the inconsistency of the sides below us

A couple of Maddison long balls for Vardy to run on to , Burnley done for. No slow multi-passing build up today , quick , simple and incisive. Barnes should be given the chance to see if he can match Vardy's ability to outpace their back line.

Was thinking if Brendan might try that if he’s thinking of playing 3 at the back. Play Vardy and Barnes as the 2 and Barnes could drift over to the left to give Chilwell a hand aswell.
Clever Fox Posted 19 January 2020 Posted 19 January 2020 This is going to come down to our performance today. Burnley are a tough physical side who don't mind putting it about. We will need to be better than we have been and move the ball quicker. We will need to be better than in recent games. But players need to stay focused on today todays game and forget about the Villa game. If we do that I feel we can get a win. I'm going for 1.-0 or 2-1
Pliskin Posted 19 January 2020 Posted 19 January 2020 Need Mendy to play today, never thought I’d say this but we can’t have Hamza haring around like a lunatic leaving gaps all over the place.

Mendy has been very unlucky here. He's a very tidy footballer who is comfortable on the Ball. He would bring a steadying influence to the holding role leaving Hamza to get after the Ball. I feel that's his best role in the team. He doesn't have the experience yet to know how to control the game or the pace of NDiddi. Good player that he is.
