How the **** does Kompany even contemplate Vitinho at left back let alone play him, he's absolutely **** at right back as it is

You've seriously got to start pointing the finger at the manager, his selection, his formation, his tactics and he continues to get it woefully wrong !

THEWELLERNUT70

The precedent for allowing backing into keepers was well and truly set with the Trafford incident as that Everton equaliser has just shown

THEWELLERNUT70

It's a tough one to take this and really ( for me anyway) brings into question our thinking/strategy where players are concerned. Zaroury ( again imo ) has offered more in his cameo's than Tresor has had in his multiple opportunities

17 games to go and so many “fans” giving up.
Lots of twists and turns to come yet guys !

A 14 point swing ( possibly 15 with gd) at this point of the season required, it ain't gonna happen however much we want it to

JJ Watt has had his say on twitter

He played for Stafford that day - can’t remember whether he scored or not. I’d forgotten about the wall but rings a bell now. My main memory is having to listen to the radio commentary bloke sat behind me for the whole of the game ! https://youtu.be/rIah7Y4F1vc?si=zqdAMgLvO7KWbWI- A link to the hig...

Burnley 6 - 1 Altrincham which from memory I think was played on a Monday evening. Altrincham were the club at the time renowned for collecting league scalps in the Cup and thought they could spring a surprise. Hamilton scored a hat trick ( one a beautiful full length diving header and a 25 yarder f...

I think the Sheff United away one just about gets it for me. I doubt that game would be played these days - it was freezing and the terraces were like ice rinks. We played really well - they stuffed us in the replay. Derby away was brilliant to be there too. In terms of getting back to basics honou...

Schalke are an absolutely ginormous club. Kaiserslautern no minnows either. Proper sleeping giant.

Kaiserslautern who sit one place above Schalke after tonight were playing 3rd division football two seasons ago too and I think just squeaked promotion then

THEWELLERNUT70

It's been a shocking season for Schalke, to think the Veltins Arena could be hosting 3rd division football next season is mental ( but as a VFL Bochum fan f*ck 'em

)

THEWELLERNUT70

Another team that tries to play out from the back like Barcelona with players who could be playing for Burton Albion

It might be the trendy thing but it's dogshit if you don't have the players !

Arsenal score a very similar goal to Luton last week,VAR confirm it.

Totally different apparently

THEWELLERNUT70

Totally different that Arsenal goal. The keeper couldn’t get past the attacker’s starting position, he was poorly protected. A chance he could have got the foul for easing Henderson into the net, but on balance on foul. Very different from Luton player watching Trafford and deliberately charging in...

THEWELLERNUT70

Arsenal's second goal see's and Arsenal player backing into to Henderson the Palace keeper and impeding him on the line, VAR check, goal given

THEWELLERNUT70

I wouldn't want them to fold, just suffer irreversible long term damage that sees them bump around leagues 2 and the conference. The team surviving in all but name as a hollow husk that their supporters have to eventually come to terms with

THEWELLERNUT70

The last thing I'll say on this is....... If that's a Burnley player scoring a goal after "that incident" and it was ruled out because the opposing goalkeeper acts like a wet blanket in a tumble dryer the amount of tears being shed on here would fill the river Thames to bursting point. Cries of get ...

THEWELLERNUT70

Referees don't understand football. Exactly this, they've probably never played the game consistently to any meaningful standard and were probably the types who were 'last pick' in the playground because nobody wanted to be lumbered with them. Their revenge being to become an official as a mean gai...

Watched it. My take from Webb is that the on field decision is probably wrong, but not wrong enough to overturn it.

Welcome to football in 2024.

And that's what I said on the night. If he gives the foul there's not enough in it to overturn it either

THEWELLERNUT70

And just for balance too here is Danny Murphy's rant because he couldn't believe a foul wasn't given

https://fb.watch/pBvqmcz21C/

THEWELLERNUT70

Also mentioned on Ref Watch was the opinion of Shay Given ( goalkeeper) who thought it was keeper error and not a free kick

Just for balance of course

THEWELLERNUT70

It's a 50/50 for me. If the ref gives the foul VAR wouldn't have overturned it but for me there wasn't enough in it to overturn the goal either. It's a shame really because Trafford had been excellent to that point, but for me it's a keeper error and he's simply not getting to the ball after he's co...

THEWELLERNUT70

For me and having seen VAR it's a 50/50, ref blows foul it's not being over turned but equally there's not enough in it to overturn the goal either. Trafford has been excellent tonight imo but that is a critical error of which a number of us were fearful of going into tonight's game

THEWELLERNUT70

Really sad to read this. Probably the only manager since Venables who made England enjoyable to watch Sad news indeed. I liked Sven and was lucky enough to see one of his England teams play in Frankfurt in the 2006 World Cup. The whole 'fake sheikh ' stitch up is the sole reason I to this day refus...

If we scored from that pass it would have been a great pass from muric

Some on here would have said it was genius by Amdouni after a poor pass from Muric

They were BOTH culpable for the goal last night, there's really no debate

THEWELLERNUT70

The pass out for the goal was stupid, they had just had a mad couple of minutes in our box with a few chances. The game needed slowing down and let us get back into shape, any decent goalkeeper having caught the ball would have fallen to the floor and allowed us to regroup, the last thing we needed...

THEWELLERNUT70

One thing I will say about Muric last night was the high floaty listless chips to either fullback or into midfield where we inevitably cough up possession were largely absent last night

THEWELLERNUT70

That the one I was talking about. Comms said it was offside and I haven’t seen a reply to say otherwise. Point still stands that it wasn’t a clear cut chance. The back was behind him and leaning back to swivel and hit it. Yes a “Premier League forward” may well have hit the target but Burnley can’t...

THEWELLERNUT70

"Where do you get the 2 great chances from? Both were half chances with the ball behind him and One was offside anyway"

Out of interest ( as it's Amdouni I think this refers to ) do you think was offside?

The one in the 1st half had it gone to VAR had Amdouni netted would have stood

THEWELLERNUT70

Muric 6 it's only fair I mark him down for poor distribution Vitinho 5 O'Shea 8 Delcroix 9* outstanding tonight when played in the correct position Taylor 7 Zaroury 5 Cullen 8 Ramsey 6 Odobert 6 Foster 5 Amdouni 4 if he's not falling over he's giving it away, if he's not being greedy in the final 3r...

Not often I say this, but a word on the ref - bar the Cullen booking that wasn’t, he was pretty good today

And booking Tresor for the exact same challenge the Spurs player got away with on Amdouni

THEWELLERNUT70

The 1 in 6 player strikes again, toblerone feet if he's trying to score from anywhere over 5 yards out !

THEWELLERNUT70

Genuine question is Amdouni playing in his slippers tonight? That must be half a dozen times he's gone over

THEWELLERNUT70

Now I will say that was shite from Muric

THEWELLERNUT70

Amdouni w@nking it off after he'd lost it, p!ss poor imo

THEWELLERNUT70

I know he's had dogs abuse on here but I think Delcroix deserves some praise so far tonight, he's been excellent imo and looks like he might be a talker too

THEWELLERNUT70

Not a bad half from us, it's just a shame Amdouni murdered that chance

THEWELLERNUT70

Outstanding Tele, I felt like standing up and clapping at the end of it!

The ref , Attwell is a Luton fan
Obviously it didn’t affect his decision making today!!

It's actually because he's just f*cking sh!t, always has been always will be

THEWELLERNUT70

The thing is you always know what you're gonna get with Attwell in charge

The sh!ttest of the sh!t and should have never been allowed anywhere near a football pitch again after he gave that goal against Watford that actually went 5 yards wide all those years ago
