At least after today we can finally do away with the b0llocks that we shouldn't be winning games against sides we've played so far.

We're just shite. That's all there is to it.

Was always pure nonsense like. As though you can lose all your home games against the top sides then miraculously get a result against every other side home and away

The most galling thing is this entire thread could see what would happen today when we were given the line up.

We’d be bullied all over the shop.

Why can’t the manager see it?

Cannot see how we survive this season.

Quality reinforcements in January, and Beyer and Ekdal
returning probably the only chance.

This is a truly embassing performance.

They are knocking out lads all over the place. We are struggling with their physicality.

This is the major issue for me.

jedi_master · Post by **jedi_master** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 3:40 pm

The ridiculous thing is, even though they’ve had a goal incorrectly ruled out and should be winning 5-0, we are still very much in this due to their profligacy.

How long will it be before they realise that teams are on us every time we play out from the back. Ridiculous

Said this last year

Also, when they press, we fold. Happened last year too.

BabylonClaret · Post by **BabylonClaret** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 3:40 pm

We are getting battered here. Battered.

There is no pressure on the ball from 75% of the team. Brentford passing out and through our lines at will

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 3:40 pm

Can we get the drum on at half time? That'll fix it all.

Newcastleclaret93 · Post by **Newcastleclaret93** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 3:40 pm

Might be a bit of hyperbole

But have ever we played worst football than this in the premier league?

We don’t even look remotely close

JohnMcGreal · Post by **JohnMcGreal** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 3:40 pm

This has been really, really poor.

Changes needed at half time.

FFS sort this out - the midfield is atrocious!

I don’t think he’s the answer necessarily but I’d seriously be considering playing Jack Cork. He may be in the twilight of his career, but he’s the only one we have with a bit of nouse.

It’s criminal to think Jack Cork might still be the answer after how much money we spent in the summer.

Didn’t VK hook Muric twice at half time last season?
Can definitely think of one against Watford

Berge and Cullen didn’t work first 3 games of season and it’s never going to work, signed all these wingers and aren’t getting them into the game at all, we can’t keep sacrificing a midfielder to get both Amdouni and foster in the team

Im trying to think of a worse performance.

Can’t think of many;

Maybe some towards the end of the 2009/10 season? Thinking Portsmouth at home or something

Trafford has been our best player today

Glen Little on BBC Radio Lacashire... "We're being totally outplayed" ...
On the plus side.."Trafford is keeping us in the game" .

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 3:43 pm

Unfortunately, we have no target for passing the ball once it leaves the area. Just keeps coming back.

Carwin261 · Post by **Carwin261** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 3:43 pm

Brownhill isn’t the answer ,but he has to come on at halftime.

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 3:43 pm

Excellent reaction save.

SPC&G · Post by **SPC&G** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 3:43 pm

We’re struggling to get a hold of the ball and when we do we’re giving it away or getting cought in possession. If we can to half time at 1-0 we’ll be thankful. Hopefully change some personnel/system

123EasyasBFC · Post by **123EasyasBFC** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 3:43 pm

Cullen isn’t a nailed on prem starter either

Casper2 · Post by **Casper2** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 3:44 pm

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Sat Oct 21, 2023 3:44 pm

Unbelievable stop by Trafford. We desperately need a true midfield general.

We’ve been awful today, but there’s also been many instances of worse football than this.

Must admit, I'd feel far more confident with Muric in.

We’d be 4-0 down with Muric in goal today.

Wonder why Massengo still isn’t making the bench. Crying out for his type in the middle.

How we severely lack a Kevin Ball/Joey Barton type leader. We are as weak as pisswater. Embarrassing.

This is absolutely car crash stuff

VK needs a long hard look in the mirror at half time.

"Sean, pleeeeeease come back. You played Dyche -ball" it was solid, it was boring, but we were rarely steam-rollered, and we came out with some good 1-0 wins ".

Trafford keeping us in the game at the moment - that and Maupay has turned up with his banjo and is aiming for the barn door.
