Sometimes I hate how quick we can be to pass it back to the keeper.

Annoying half, would rather see a 4-2-3-1 personally.

Quite possibly the worst half of football I’ve seen all season..

What a weird half. So turgid again with 3 at the back, but more evident is how slow the team are to release the ball. Not playing as a team at the moment.

Yawn, that was toothless. Too much tippy tappy football and Rose grinding to a halt instead of running at his man and/or crossing the ball.

Need a bit more confidence in possession to beat the press, because once we do, the space will be there for our attackers to work in.

Would maybe get Lamela on for a CB or Sissoko as someone that can beat that press with first time passes.

Kane shouldn’t have started, Llorente should’ve

I don’t know if we should stick with 3 at the back for much longer In the second half, we will get more frustrated as times goes on we need a early goal in second half

Can't say I'm that bothered. We have decent possession but struggling to find the angles because of the Burnley press. There is no chance they can keep that up, even last 5 of that half all you could hear was Dyche trying to get them to close down as already they are blowing.

Give it another 20 mins and the space will come.

Looks like we have a bit of trouble controlling the ball when receiving a pass. Hopefully 45 minutes of practice will pay off.

That final minute was infuriating, just wanted somebody to risk a shot, tough half. Foyth equal parts excites and scares me. I imagine we will see a completely different 2nd half.

Theyre knackered from pressing. We will dominate 2nd half.

Why are we being so delineate in the final third? Son needs to unleash

I think they'll tire but in truth they've just stayed tight and compact.

We need to move the ball faster and inject more movement.

It's the old saying... Don't wait for something to happen, make it happen.
