Match Threads Burnley Vs Spurs

[spursfan77]

Sounds like a good match to avoid watching so far. Let’s hope we come out second half and at least have a couple of shots. I like Lucas in games like this. He scares defences like Burnley’s when he runs at them.

Lucas for Emerson now then Reguilon for Sessegnon at 65 imo

I am more annoyed at Sessegnon than Emerson. Emerson tries & fails.
Sessegnon doesn;t even try to take a player on or put a cross in.

Take on player & try something - get a corner or throw atleast - do something

Winks warming up

3 shots 0 on target shocking

I remember when we had zero shots in 90mins

Winks coming on.

the sooner burnley get relegated the better

A lot of criticism for the fullbacks, but Son has been the worst player on the pitch in that first half.

Winks is on.
Mmmm.

 

[Dr Know]

Shit, Winks coming on

Ain’t got a stream, so have been following the updates on Twitter….: don’t sound good. How do people on here see it?

Typical Burnley on a cold, wet, windy weeknight.
They've been very organised defensively but the ball hasn't really worked for us and we can't seem to get round them.
They've looked dangerous but I think as they tire, we'll start creating more.

We haven't looked as terrible as some will make out but it's just a bit flat.
It's very wet and windy, which isn't helping on a slippery pitch too.

Left side : Sessegnon wont take on anyone and Son wont make the overlapping runs either. Both pedestrian.

Right side : Kulusevski taking some great position in pocket but Emerson is playing in a alternate universe where he doesnt see Kulusevski

That’s really a big part of the problem. When Burnley play the ball out wide, two or three of their players support the ball carrier. When we do it, our wide players are on their own, and the only pass option they have is back down the touch line.

Winks on?

dont blame sess for not pushing fwd further - son is all over the place and often there is no overlapping runner there so sess has to play cautiously infield and cannot stretch the play. Son has played terribly this half - head down, poor touches, no positional discipline - dare I say it, sub him for Bergwijn or Lucas

on the other side Royal has wasted some golden positions but it does look like the side we will likely get a chance from

Just popping in for the Winks meltdown ???

 

[DarwinSpur]

Looks like Liverpool have responded to our putting the title race back on

Definitely need to up the tempo second half.

 

[rebrab]

In this type of game I prefer Doherty to Emerson as he’s much more creative going forwards

Like for like.
