They play Forest final game of the season.

Wow!

 

[Airfixx]

They'd have got relegated playing any type of football. May as well have had a bash. Worked for Blackpool LOL

This....

Might as well run with what brought you to the dance...... They'd have needed a complete squad overhaul otherwise.

I think people forget how small Burnley are..... Being a yo-yo club playing good football isn't a bad life for them...... Certainly more desirable than fighting for 17th every year with Brexit-ball.

 

[Spaniel]

We could ask

Nothing ventured but we know Levy's never going to cough up what he's worth so he'll end up at City or Woolwich....

 

[FOK]

5th looking very likely for us.

 

[Airfixx]

What gloss? Everyone can see that they're terrible.

Contrary to popular belief you can polish a turd.... Fucking messy, smelly business tho.

 

[Raf]

5th looking very likely for us.

Was it ever not? Everyone below us has been a lot worse than us this season.

Sadly

 

[Airfixx]

Onana with another Oh-no-no to give Burnley a point.

 

[Cranston]

They have FFP issues. Need to sell this summer

True, but I’m expecting the FFP stuff to conveniently evaporate. If they don’t deal with City and Chavs, they’ll let others at it.

 

[nicoclaesen]

5th looking very likely for us.

4th is looking likely.

Chavs beat Villa tonight.
We beat Woolwich.

3 pts behind Villa with 2 games in hands. Its in our hands.

My optimism is magnificent isn’t it?

 

[Aussies Dream]

I see Sheffield got well and truly violated again…

 

[Starks]

United have won just 1 game in 90 minutes in their last 9... And that was to the team rock bottom of the league with 16 points....

 

[Yid91]

Onana with another Oh-no-no to give Burnley a point.

In fairness he kept them in the game first half . They are horrendous

 

[Raf]

Juve and Ac Milan next, it's incredible how Juve have completely fallen apart this season.

I'm not even entirely sure they get top 4 now.

 

[Deuterz]

5th looking very likely for us.

Yey

 

[Airfixx]

True, but I’m expecting the FFP stuff to conveniently evaporate. If they don’t deal with City and Chavs, they’ll let others at it.

They'll flex a little longer until it's time to drop the bomb on that pair.... Then the rules will be changed "for the good of everyone".

 

[Richard Arlison]

True, but I’m expecting the FFP stuff to conveniently evaporate. If they don’t deal with City and Chavs, they’ll let others at it.

yup.

 

[Jenny Talia]

5th looking very likely for us.

We are back wanting a Chelsea win again.



A 1-0 with Palmer picking up a knock would be OK I guess.

 

[todd1882]

I noticed Watkins long before this season.

BS! Or did you mean 'noticing' him historically underperforming a stat you wank over...show me positive things you've said about him previously. However, he perfectly fits the criteria of the type of striker I consistently talk about.

Diaz is 1 goal behind xG, Darwin 8. And Diaz can't kick a football properly.

goals/shot or clinical efficiency was the measure and not performance relative to xG...

No the rest of my argument is based on the facts (Nunez is a god-awful finisher who his coach has dropped for this reason) whereas you're basing it on emotion because you like him. Watkins at his worst was a 2-3 goals behind xG striker. That would be Nunez having a good season in front of goal.

Teams don't setup to limit Watkins influence on the game (though they should start thinking about it). But even the likes of Pep has altered his approach to limit Darwin's. It's not just about goals, Deuterz!

Nunez is a dangerous footballer outside of his ability to put the ball in the net. This is a very important trait for the player closest to the opposition goal.

Exactly. Thanks for agreeing with me!

 

[HotShotTottenham]

Onana with another Oh-no-no to give Burnley a point.

He is a bit of a clown, isn’t he?

I’m thinking 8 on the Side-Show Bob scale… with maybe an additional 0.5 Krusties.
