Re: Spurs v Burnley match thread
So refreshing to see our keeper command his area. Trafford is an immense shoylt stopper but Muric is better for our play

Re: Spurs v Burnley match thread
I don’t think Amdouni should be starting purely as I think we perhaps need to be more compact, but he’s clearly very talented and has a lot of excellent attributes. He’s another level to the joker that you have compared him to!Newcastleclaret93 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 05, 2024 8:43 pmAmdouni is so poor

Re: Spurs v Burnley match thread
Really grown into the half there, Ramsey can’t play in a midfield 2, brownhill for Ramsey for me, zaroury is a player playing with no confidence, he’s got in some good positions and rushed it

Vitinho, Ramsey and Zaroury - all very poor
O’Shea, Delcroix, Taylor and Cullen looking good

Pleased with that. Although we are sloppy at times we looked solid and look a threat on the counter. few players just need to be a bit stronger.

Re: Spurs v Burnley match thread
Haven’t seen us try to play the quick passing from the GK from last season tonight, so not sure how we can draw that conclusion. For 25 mins we’ve been hanging on (not down to Muric, mind).CoolClaret wrote: ↑Fri Jan 05, 2024 8:45 pmAgain if we want to play out he’s the man. If we want a more traditional approach then maybe not.
As I’ve been saying all along, GK makes no difference when we have the outfield performing so poorly.

Re: Spurs v Burnley match thread
Good half from us. Had the better openings albeit been wasteful. Ramsey and Cullen competed well in there (far better than I expected), Muric been sound and Delcroix has impressed me.

Re: Spurs v Burnley match thread
Amdouni has talent not arguing that. But he’s not suited to this league at all, he is so lightweight and just generally poor on the ball.jedi_master wrote: ↑Fri Jan 05, 2024 8:49 pmI don’t think Amdouni should be starting purely as I think we perhaps need to be more compact, but he’s clearly very talented and has a lot of excellent attributes.

Weghorst was more effective

Re: Spurs v Burnley match thread
It does a little bit though - when the ball is continuously coming back at us and the keeper hangs on the line then we face more waves of attack.Darthlaw wrote: ↑Fri Jan 05, 2024 8:49 pmHaven’t seen us try to play the quick passing from the GK from last season tonight, so not sure how we can draw that conclusion.

Having the ball more in the opponents half means we don’t have to defend quite as much.
Re: Spurs v Burnley match thread
Still in the game which is great however we see creating most of their chances, get rid of that sloppiness and who knows ?

Re: Spurs v Burnley match thread
I think it's a strange game in that we've looked extremely sloppy in possession and very open to attacks every time they have the ball, but they look completely toothless and unproductive with it (much like we did for many games earlier in the season).CrosspoolClarets wrote: ↑Fri Jan 05, 2024 8:47 pmGreat half. Neither side in full flow but we are limiting them and I think with a full team we’d have more control. Still in the cup at HT thats for sure.
Agree that with a first choice team especially centre midfield we'd be looking much better. They're a different side without Son.

Re: Spurs v Burnley match thread
Ramsey is quite simply not good enough.
Re: Spurs v Burnley match thread
Fair do's, we did much better than i feared, should even be in front, but let's be honest our failings this season have been very much on display again tonight. But good to see Muric, who looks on decent form and we could have done with him all season rather than the understudy. Good to see Zaroury too even if it's not the same player we fell in love with last season.
It'll finish something like 3-0 to Spurs i imagine...

Here you are, the team is playing well so you start digging out players individually at random. You did the exact same last year.Newcastleclaret93 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 05, 2024 8:49 pmNope he’s not suited to this league at all.

I don’t think writing off a young lad 19 games into a new league is wise. He’s clearly very talented, he might be the best close dribbler iv ever seen in a Burnley shirt and can score goals, needs to be more consistent with his end product which will hopefully come in time.
Saying he offers **** all is just you though, absolutely clueless when it comes to football and nothing but negative about every BFC related.

I’ve actually been impressed with Ramsey tonight. He’s never a CM in a midfield two but you can see glimpses of what he can do, he’ll come good I’m sure, but if Villas deal is anything like Archers is at Sheff Utd, he’ll be back there in the summer if we go down
Re: Spurs v Burnley match thread
Not so sure I think it has been quicker and right. He had 1 that should have gone long and one that went wide apart from that all good from what I have seen

This is nonsense. He's not set the world alight but you can see he's full of ability. At 23 and with his qualities he's easily up to playing in this league. I think despite what he's shown so far there's a good finisher in there as well.Newcastleclaret93 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 05, 2024 8:49 pmNope he’s not suited to this league at all.

Muric's distribution has been sh*T. On at least 3 occasions he's put us under severe pressure, it's no wonder VK prefers Trafford.

Just thinking -
That half is exactly what I expected us to look like from the off this year tbh. Bit fragile but having a go at it. Good stuff

Re: Spurs v Burnley match thread
Amdouni is playing with weight on his shoulders, he looks so incredibly self concious.
Re: Spurs v Burnley match thread
I don’t know what game you’re watching, he’s probably been our best player. Surprisingly impressed with how well he’s done.
Go ahead though, push your negative agenda.
Re: Spurs v Burnley match thread
Rubbish, he set up the chance for himself with a nice one 2 with Zaroury. Created another good opening for Zaroury with nice feet in a tight space on the far left. Almost threaded Foster through after dribbling past 2 Spurs players.Newcastleclaret93 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 05, 2024 8:51 pmWatch the game?

Foster looking tired or injured for last 15 mins Hope he’s ok. Muric has been excellent apart from 1 bad throw. O’Shea and Delcroix doing well. Zaroury well off the pace. Decent half from us

Been keeping an eye on both Foster and Richarlison.
Foster has been a passenger compared to Richarlison who has worked his socks off.

Your pick was dumped out of the club after 6 months haha.
Amdouni is a talented player but this league is just not the right league for him. He lacks the physicality and pace to be affective.

Re: Spurs v Burnley match thread
Not bad from us, but still can't help feeling it's only a matter of time before something happens down our right. Vitihno cannot defend against genuine quality and Johnson has him all ends up. Ramsey looks dodgy, but tbf he's been given a couple of crap passes under real pressure so not all his fault.
