Burnley v Rochdale match thread

[Spijed]

so..........does Jay start at the weekend then ?

Depends what it says in the contract of Ashley Barnes

[PeterWilton]

so..........does Jay start at the weekend then ?

Not for me. You don't want to rush these kids into the first team of a Premier League side. Maybe by January he'll be ready.

[LordBob]

My Newcastle mate just text me and said virtually what you have Vegas, I expect to us it's a no brainer but we don't pick the side.

[Peter Loo]

Well surely Barnes can't start, and Vydra is seemingly out of favour, so by that logic he should have a strong claim.

Culm down now it’s only Rochdale

[RVclaret]

What is our fastest ever hatrick? Jay’s in 12 minutes must be close.

[tiger76]

They’re against much lower placed opposition, but a hat trick will do Jay the world of good.

It might well be against a L2 side, but strikers thrive on scoring goals, so it can't do him nay harm.

A 12 minute HT, that must be our quickest for many years.

[Colburn_Claret]

Well surely Barnes can't start, and Vydra is seemingly out of favour, so by that logic he should have a strong claim.

Wood will definitely start, and he and Jay just don't compliment each other. Both good, but a poor pair. It has to be Vyds on Saturday, although trying to second guess SD is risky.
I should think McNeil has been saved for Saturday, so a bench spot for Max. Hopefully he can affect the game from there.

[SussexDon1inIreland]

Sounds like Cornet saved a goal there

[tiger76]

Culm down now it’s only Rochdale

Yes I know it is, but a confident striker has to start surely.

If not Jay who would you play up front at the weekend?

Vydra - get our best pair going again.

[Spijed]

Dave Roberts on the Comms cam said there were quite a few quicker ones.

[KateR]

Cornet (50'minutes), Vydra (60'minutes), Westwood (62'minutes) assists according to the BBC, meaning they're doing there job and JayRod is doing his, isn't this how it's supposed to work

[Vegas Claret]

4-1

[SussexDon1inIreland]

4-1 Jay

[Bigvince]

Oooohhhhhhh!

[Vegas Claret]

Jay claiming it !

[HunterST_BFC]

Q...

Why does his pass say Red Zone? Is it Covid?

If not why not Claret?

[Spijed]

Lennon - what a player

[tiger76]

Fair enough I could just about accept Vydra/Wood as a combo, but the one thing I dread seeing on the Saturday team sheet is a Barnes/Wood combo, it might have been effective at one time, but it's well past it's sell by date now, and hopefully SD has finally realised this fact.

[Devils_Advocate]

This 11 should start at Leicester on Saturday

[Murger]

This should push Barnes back down to 4th choice.

[Bigvince]

If you say so !

[Peter Loo]

Barnes and Wood although Vydra does introduce something different when paired with Wood.

[tiger76]

This should push Barnes back down to 4th choice.

It should yes, but we all know how stubborn SD can be.

[Bigvince]

Get Thomas on

[RVclaret]

Barnes and Wood although Vydra does introduce something different when paired with Wood.

Clearly on the wind up or not been watching us lately.

[SussexDon1inIreland]

Jay has now scored more goals in the League Cup than any other Burnley player (12)
Andy Lochhead previously held that record with 10

[Buxtonclaret]

Lowts central midfield! Heck
Ablueclaret character will be making a comeback.

[KateR]

let's see what Wood and Vydra can do for 10 mins, maybe teaming them for Saturday, can only hope and clutch at a few straws.

[Woodleyclaret]

Hes one of our own!
Jay is back

[milkcrate_mosh]

Wood/Rodriguez was a reasonably effective strike partnership last season, highest PPG and goals per game of any partnership (well technically second to Barnes/Rodriguez but they only started 2 games together!)

[HunterST_BFC]

Get Thomas on

Give Norris a taste

[tiger76]

Barnes and Wood although Vydra does introduce something different when paired with Wood.

But Barnes and Wood have been tried, and it's simply not working ATM, so for me Vydra has to replace Barnes, just look at the difference in our play following the subs against Arsenal, we actually caused their defence concerns, whereas in the 1st half we created virtually nothing in an attacking sense.

[Bigvince]

Palmer scores for city number 80!! On his shirt

[lakedistrictclaret]

I've only seen it once, but Jay's fourth looked like an OG to me.

Think it brushed his chest on way in

[SussexDon1inIreland]

Let’s have 5

[SussexDon1inIreland]

Penalties QPR vs Everton

[SussexDon1inIreland]

Well played Burnley

[warksclaret]

Maybe Jay & Wood will start on Saturday. Either way, for me Barnes is now firmly fourth choice

[Vegas Claret]

shame we conceded but goals and win is what we required

[gandhisflipflop]

Certain posters trying to be deliberately controversial and trying to be funny is tedious on this thread.

[FCBurnley]

Surely the big positive has to be Cornet.

[4:20]

Well done, Burnley, enjoyed listening to that.

[SussexDon1inIreland]

Austin scores his penalty

[Bigvince]

We’ll done Clarets, I know it’s Rochdale but you can only beat what’s put in front of you, onwards and upwards UTC

[IanMcL]

Well done and thank you Jay Rodriguez.

[Iloveyoubrady]

Let’s sign cashman. Poor mans jack grealish.

[Claret_tinted]

Lowts central midfield! Heck
Ablueclaret character will be making a comeback.

He’s been back for ages, just posting under a different name(s)

[Tribesmen]

4 -1 I would have taken that tonight before kick off for sure
