Burnley thread

[Frenchaigle]

We are under pressure and only a brilliant save by Henderson kept them out. If we are intent on defending a one goal lead don't hold out much

The Burnley subs look lively

 

[Frenchaigle]

Squeaky bum time

 

[Nicholas91]

This is turning into quite a farcical performance from us.

Burnley will be gutted if they get nothing here. May not have many better chances.

 

[Xong Kudu]

Our subs look weak. Devenny particularly needs to do something. He seems to have lost his way.

 

[dreamwaverider]

What is up with Nketia?

 

[bigal]

Gonna start calling him blind alley devenney

 

[Eaglecoops]

Who would you like him to play ?

We have got zero out ball up front. Are Esse and Uche so bad that they can’t play in their natural positions as opposed to Kamada and Devenny who are midfielders playing in an advanced position. Can you honestly see either of Devenny or Kamada taking someone on and going past them.

We are under pressure partly because we have nothing up front to worry Burnley.

 

[Uphill]

At this rate odds on an equaliser or worse coming. We are so poor, Burnley have used all their subs and are much quicker. We are tired.

 

[RubinsCube]

What other options are there? JP never plays 90 mins, Pino looked knackered and was having a poor game, OG doesn't rate Esse or Uche and neither have any game time in a Palace shirt ...

Herein lies a big part of the issue. It reduces our realistic bench options considerably (plus we have 2 goalkeepers on the bench tonight as well!).

Why does Hendo keep kicking long when we have no one to hold it up. It was bad for 60 mins then it gets worse as the game goes on. Seems a lack of spirit.

The cul de sac kid.

 

[Xong Kudu]

What is up with Nketia?

How long have you got?

 

[beak]

The cul de sac kid.

We are looking for black cats down dark alleys, a few minutes to go.

 

[Uphill]

Madness, Nketiah gives away a foul on the edge of the box.

 

[Ronsdog]

It appears that we are happy enough to grind out another clean sheet….

 

[PalazioVecchio]

phew

 

[Team of the (20)80s]

Madness, Nketiah gives away a foul on the edge of the box.

That was unforgivable

 

[Frenchaigle]

That was unforgivable

Agree ,ridiculous .Burnley player was going no where

 

[Teddy Eagle]

That was unforgivable

Those weren't given in his Arsenal days.

 

[maddog]

How are Burnley allowed to have players in our wall? Was that rule only applied for our game against Chelsea?
