Let’s hope we can field a strong team. Usual injury rumors flying around

Team news

Mrs Vino and I have got our colours on and we will be setting off for the Underground bar in Benalmadena in 10 mins. We are expecting a good turn out today, there's quite a few people from Burnley out here on holiday, there could be between 20 and 30 clarets cheering the lads on today.

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sat May 07, 2022 2:02 pm

Bare bones indeed

wilks_bfc · Post by **wilks_bfc** » Sat May 07, 2022 2:03 pm

Due to sickness I’ll be following from my sofa today

Gutted as I missed the last 2 home games as I was away

JohnDearyMe · Post by **JohnDearyMe** » Sat May 07, 2022 2:03 pm

Least Cornet and Pieters make the bench. Hope Barnes and Weghorst have been doing a lot of work together in training this week

ClaretAL · Post by **ClaretAL** » Sat May 07, 2022 2:03 pm

Ouch line up, but in the park view at the moment and thr crowd are going to be the 12th man today no doubt about it. Vocal chords definitely getting lubricated...

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Sat May 07, 2022 2:04 pm

Cornet on the bench is a big boost, though hopefully he won't be needed today.

Barnes might even have got the nod despite the injuries given the impact he had at Watford.

He played well when he came on. Would have scored but for that great save.

When was his last goal for us? Must have been a while given all his injuries

Can't be relying in that bench to get us out of trouble.

burnmark · Post by **burnmark** » Sat May 07, 2022 2:10 pm

Vydra is out for the season.

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Sat May 07, 2022 2:10 pm

With that squad villa have really under performed this year. Fingers crossed they do it at least two more times.

Anfield perhaps when he slotted home that late pen?.

But yes he looks a lot sharper, and today would be an ideal time for him to get back on target.

That would be a blow, he's popped up with important moments recently.

We just don’t have any luck this season.

CombatClaret · Post by **CombatClaret** » Sat May 07, 2022 2:15 pm

I was worried when we lost Jay & had to start our impact sub in Vydra. Now we've lost both and Barnes starts

Hopefully he relishes this very rare start and puts in a what I wouldn't be sad to see as his last great moment for us.

Hope Cornet had 30minutes in him too. Worst case we need a goal, best case we lead and he helps find outballs to stop us defending the box for the last spell.

CrosspoolClarets · Post by **CrosspoolClarets** » Sat May 07, 2022 2:18 pm

Vydra Burnley career over but has done his bit. Time for others now.

If Barnes scores, again in a key game, that roof will lift. I trust him under this pressure.

We are behind the 8 ball but this is what we do best. Come on Burnley

jtv · Post by **jtv** » Sat May 07, 2022 2:19 pm

Where does it say that Vyds is out for the season? Big blow if true, he scored the winner vs Wolves and made the winners vs everton and watford

Colburn_Claret · Post by **Colburn_Claret** » Sat May 07, 2022 2:21 pm

Surprised we haven't gone to the U23s to get a striker for the bench. I hope last week just got the cobwebs out of Bash, but it is a gamble, Vydra out for the season, if true, would be a big blow.
I still think Dwight and Lennon are starting on the wrong wings, fingers crossed it isn't too late when they revert.

Against Fulham.

If those injuries are as bad as supposed, it's essential we pick up 3 points today.

COME ON LADS! UTC.

Neil · Post by **Neil** » Sat May 07, 2022 2:31 pm

I imagine Barnes will be pumped up. Hope he manages to stay on the field. Reckon we'll see a lot of crosses going into their box today!

Murger · Post by **Murger** » Sat May 07, 2022 2:32 pm

If Barnes and Wout are our strike force for the last 4 games, we are in serious trouble.

mkmel · Post by **mkmel** » Sat May 07, 2022 2:43 pm

Maybe young Costelloe will make a name for himself today?

Mind you I hope he's not needed though.

Afternoon all, lovely calm day outside, anything but calm inside, me nerves are gone.COYC!

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sat May 07, 2022 2:53 pm

Don’t forget we just have to equal what Leeds do. Easier said than done but certainly doable UTC

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sat May 07, 2022 2:59 pm

Ground looks fuller than of late. Vydra has knee injury

That's a formidable line-up Villa have.

The myth of Burnley "physicality" being spouted by the two clown commentators within 5 mins of kickoff...

Murger · Post by **Murger** » Sat May 07, 2022 3:09 pm

Haven't got going yet. Why do we always take an age to get into the game?

Too easy for him. He should have scored earlier

...and here we go again

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Sat May 07, 2022 3:11 pm

Awful defensive shape all around for their goal. Firstly Cork and Brownhill get sucked in and leave a man spare, then Collins / Roberts nowhere to be seen.

tarkys_ears · Post by **tarkys_ears** » Sat May 07, 2022 3:12 pm

Nice attempt by Barnes.

That's what I want - balls on net. Beats not having a single shot in a half

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Sat May 07, 2022 3:12 pm

Simply have to turn this around.

Neil · Post by **Neil** » Sat May 07, 2022 3:13 pm

Cutting through us at will. Was it last season they murdered us for 45 minutes and we somehow won 3-2?

fatboy47 · Post by **fatboy47** » Sat May 07, 2022 3:14 pm

Can't get away with starting like that again.

Murger · Post by **Murger** » Sat May 07, 2022 3:15 pm

These are 2nd bottom of the form table, and we are making them look like Brazil.
