Burnley Away pre match thread

[SemperEadem]

Will be tough.

[Jabfox]

Need to do the basics well and match there energy levels, will be a very tough game but we have enough quality to beat them. 

 

Weghorst is gonna give our back 4/5 absolute nightmares 🤣 no idea what to expect from us atm 

[Sol thewall Bamba]

It's a loss but who cares. Focus on Europe! 

[Unabomber]

Can’t see anything other than a limp embarrassing performance and loss.

[Fazzer 7]

The likelihood is Chris Wood will score, he usually does. Which means we'll have to score at least twice, but that's a given regardless.  Edited. Yes yes okay, so I didn't know Wood had moved.

Says a lot that that everyone is confident a Burnley team with 3 wins all season will beat us.

 

We won't be half as much up for this as they will.

[SemperEadem]

Their home support is good and they will be bang up for it after a few wins.

They seem to be coming into a vein of form as well.

[Haywood_6]

No worries, these are only good at set pieces. We'll beat them all day long

 

Oh wait

Yep, their fans on top of us plus they are a physical side and will be a constant threat from set pieces.

 

I think they'll be to strong for us.

Do you live under a rock?

[Ric Flair]

I'd take the most heinous if 1-0 wins like we got the last time we beat them in 2015.

[Sampson]

Hopefully Vardy will at least make the bench here.

[AKCJ]

Schmeichel

Ricardo Amartey Soyuncu Thomas

Ndidi Tielemans

Albrighton Maddison Barnes

Daka

 

Should be beating these. 

[Voll Blau]

Less and less convinced by the day this will be worth using up a day-and-a-half annual leave for. Never mind, might be the last chance to have Burnley Cricket Club beers for a while...

Beat them in 2018 or so didn't we? Wes Morgan got a late winner after Harry Maguire got sent off early.

Aaaah yes, how did I forget that!!!

[RowlattsFox]

Ndidi should be dropped from midfield but of all the games to bring Mendy back in, Burnley away probably isn't ideal. 

 

There is no way we keep a clean sheet here, unless we have so much of the ball Burnley don't get near our goal. Need to go attacking and get goals. 

[J.Lisemore]

Burnley at 11/5.  

[LVFox]

Can't think of a side I wouldn't want to face more at the moment than Burnley with their tails up. Weghorst could bully the hell out of us.

 

2-1 loss...sadness.

Name your price and I'll bet you it that Wood doesn't score against us this week....

[goose2010]

they have a tough trip to Palace before this game. It will be a tough game, it always is against them. 

 

 

[Foxes96]

                      Schmeichel 

Ricardo - Amartey - Söyüncü - Thomas 

          Tielemans - Ndidi - KDH

       Maddison  -  Daka  -  Barnes

 

Harsh on Lookman, but think it might be Barnes given he came off early against Randers. Ndidi’s been poor recently but don’t fancy Hamza or Soumaré in that role either so stays for me. Will take any sort of win here
