I understand Jose wants us to be compact but this is the wrong team tonight. There just isn't enough creativity in it.

Trouble is, this team is needed to compete.
GLC and TN in midfield would leave PEH exposed.

The big miss for me is Reg, but he can’t play three 90minutes in a week

Team selection has played into Burnley’s hand really. Seem to be more worried about their threat than how we are going cause them problems when they sit back.

Whenever I see a team come out of the blocks like this, pushing up fast but back tracking double fast when they need to, chasing down balls and playing at such a high pace, while we play this possession game across the back line, I'm always quietly confident that we are an insanely fit squad so, hopefully, as they begin to run out of gas in the second half, we can start pushing higher up the pitch

Get Sissoko off. Silly fouls, is offering nothing going forward. His teammates don’t want to pass him the ball. that’s what happened with Doherty just how. We need more passing breaking lines. Bring on GLC.

Does the co commentator have a mute button and is he wearing a Burnley shirt? FFS

Sorry to reiterate but Sissoko needs to be dropped immediately from PL squads. He has been absolutely horrendous. All he does is pass backwards every single time

10 seconds to go. We are on the attack and Oliver blows up.

timekeeping in soccer is a fucking scandal

On the positive side Toby has been really solid. Think we’ll fix the rest at HT.
