As if we’d still be in the top flight without Dyche and his tactics. You play the best game your players will allow you to. Full stop.

We've had the better of them. Their goal was their first shot.
They might have all the ball but have generally done very little with it.
But they have defended well when it mattered. We don't deserve to be behind but a stupid mistake or two has let us down.

A Dreadful kick out by Pope,A stupid tackle by Westwood and Barnes not that ar5ed about jumping as the ball sailed over his head into the net.

Decent cross.
Just need one of these loose balls in the box to bounce for us.

One point and 3 goals in 4 games and the team virtually unchanged so far-doesn't add up now that we have squad depth;

We will stick with it until 70th min when their 2nd goal that had been coming for the last 20 mins is finally scored, we will take Barnes off put jay on and Lennon for jbg and have conversations after the game why cornet didn’t come on again

I disagree with some of the team choices like anyone else does, and I am in no way saying Dyche is perfect, but I think he’s a good fit for Burnley. Some of you sound like you’d rather have anyone else.

Hopefully less pressure being behind, based on games this season. Maybe we nick one back or Cornet proves a game changer.

Most disappointing thing for me is that we have Vydra and Cornet on the bench and probably won't come on until the last 5 mins.

His team selection today for me is the straw that broke the camels back. Dyche is one lucky bloke to be offered a 4 year deal on the strength of his team selection and tactics are pathetic at best and I like him which is a worry..

To be fair, I thought one of the defender's should have stepped out when the man had gotten through the centre. Had Westwood not made the foul and the player scored he'd of gotten stick for not making the challenge. Similar to one involving Dwight a few seasons ago.

Come on, at least try something and make a change!

No one can deny Cornet is fit enough to make sn impact.

If we wait until the game is over again, then we’re in desperate trouble

We need to learn how to fly over in the box. If that scrap was in our box 3 Arsenal players would be on the floor and Taylor would be thinking about awarding 2 or 3 penalities instead of 1.
