Can't really blame Burnley for playing the way they do though, especially against the bigger clubs. It yields results. It frustrates the opposition and helps them with their aim.

If they can nick a goal on the break or from a set piece? Even better for them. It's fucking ugly and horrible to watch but it's got them to where they need to be, getting the money the club needs and so far it's keeping them out of the relegation zone.

We'll still win though. The fucking cunts.

And that 5 past 2 advert is fucking horrendous.
 
Not sure why people are surprised. Have you ever seen Burnley involved in a thriller?

They are a disgrace to the game and only have one game plan.. It's shit but we have to be patient and wait for the chances.
 
This really would be the perfect game for Sissoko to shin roll an attempted top bins screamer weakly between Heatons legs on the 91st minute.

1st to jump on him is Foytj wearing whatever remains of his kit
 
They will tire and we will build a head of steam when they think they're close to taking points off us. All we need is a nice drop of the ball or a poor defensive phase and we take 3 points here. Keep the faith.
 
If you mean created in terms of assists, then he has 11 assists in all comps this season.

Son has 8, Kane has 6. So you are wrong...

But in terms of Goals + Assists, then Kane is 1st on 26, and then Son on 24. Eriksen is on 18.

No I was talking about the league and creating, not scoring. He's not a striker. And not just assists, but chances created. But that's not all, because Eriksen averages about 50 passes a game too. Already in this game he's seen more ball than both our CM's and nearly 30% more than Sissoko.
 
Going to be corner heaven for us this half, I feel.

Luckily, we have one of the best set piece records in the league.

I disagree, the aim of football should be to put on a show and entertain people. Just staying up at any cost is a dire way to be. What is the point of supporting a club like that, what joy do they get out of that time and money invested.
