Burnley v Hull match thread

[warksclaret]

That was shocking miss by Jay-and we claim we dont need a striker. Thank god that one did not fall to Hull

[tiger76]

Come on this is MUST win

It really isn't. Though a win would be nice.

[JimmyRobbo]

Barnes on for Jayrod?

[warksclaret]

No thanks- he wont even get into a chance situation

[Belgianclaret]

Benson wasteful again

[Neil]

It really isn't. Though a win would be nice.

I know it isn't. I just really want the 3 points

[Belgianclaret]

Benson wasteful again

And again

[SussexDon1inIreland]

Dirty Hull

[ElectroClaret]

Good chance Benson
Great through ball from HB.

[warksclaret]

Sounds like THB is growing in stature every game

[NRC]

I know it isn't. I just really want the 3 points

think about it, we've played two play-off teams, a team that was in the PL last season, and the team currently sitting 2nd.... and we're still learning each other's names. It's really not that bad. And if you listen to VK he wants to be there or there about around the top six by the WC. He's not expecting to be dominating this league at all at this stage

[boatshed bill]

Hull are getting away with far too much.

I'd put barnes up with Jay right now and give Hull a bit of stick. Brownhill off.

[JimmyRobbo]

The half hour delay for those 2 subs might have given JRod chance to recuperate! It looked a jaded shot when through.

[SussexDon1inIreland]

Nice play Tella

[ElectroClaret]

Well sharp from Tella.

[JimmyRobbo]

Tella with a nice little turn back on himself to get the corner which came to nothing.

[Milltown1882]

We could go down, genuinely.

[Newcastleclaret93]

We are crying out for a number ten and a striker

[Milltown1882]

Very season two of Sunderland till I die on Netflix so far these games.

[burnleymik]

Barnsey about to come onbfor Jay

[warksclaret]

We could go down, genuinely.

Nothing like staying positive

[CoolClaret]

Tella looks a real prospect

[JimmyRobbo]

Great move from right to left but vital touch took it off Tella's (or Maatsen) toes on edge of box.

[tiger76]

We could go down, genuinely.

We won't go down, stop talking rot.

[warksclaret]

Tella looks a real prospect

I think VK will be starting to know who the future are in this team hopefully Tella one of them

[ElectroClaret]

We could go down, genuinely.

JFW

[CoolClaret]

We could go down, genuinely.

Good grief

It’s clicking

Hull literally haven’t touched the ball in the 2nd half

[burnley007]

Barnes immediately offside
Ffs

Tbf we can have as much possession as possible but fundamentally we are just not threatening the opposition.

I said before the game that I have no idea where the goals are going to come from in this squad and I still have no idea.

Quality in the final third is seriously lacking

[RVclaret]

Benson has fantastic movement but is clearly going to be quite frustrating with end product

[warksclaret]

Benson sounds like he is having another shocker-Watford did a good job on him

[burnleymik]

THB given MOM.

Are you even watching the game?

We’ve had multiple clear cut chances in the second half.

[NRC]

did Benson think the goalposts had moved then!

[JimmyRobbo]

We could go down, genuinely.

A fair comment. I doubt we will. I thought we'd consolidate with a possible push for the playoffs and I still think it what will happen.

[Newcastleclaret93]

Tricky little player but zero final ball quality so far

[JimmyRobbo]

did Benson think the goalposts had moved then!

Ha ha! Exactly what happens when wingers get in front of goal.

[BurnleyFC]

Come on, Burnley. Up the tempo!

Agree although we have squandered 3 good chances- having all the possession but no goals is functionally not much different to spending the whole game time wasting.

Got to say, I'm hoping Benson comes good but I'm seeing a shade of Fernando Guerrero at the moment.

[warksclaret]

Has Barnes done much ?

[CombatClaret]

Has Barnes done much ?

In 4 minutes?

[jedi_master]

We must have had 80%+ of the ball, but we just don’t move it quickly enough. The team is so near, yet so far. Couple of additions are for sure required. You can see what it could become.

[Newcastleclaret93]

Yep I’m watching the game, we are getting the ball into good positions but fundamentally our final ball has been shocking all game.

You have your opinion, but from what I can see I can’t see I’m not sure where we are supposed to get 2 goals in a game from.

[spt_claret]

I think (hope) Twine is the missing piece that will move us on. We need him to get fit ASAP.

We’ve had 15 shots with 5 on target

Fair comments. I will say that the three chances we are all difficult chances surrounded by numerous hull players.

There’s some real positives but for me it’s blindingly obvious we need better quality in the final third. A proper number 10 and a striker is a must.

(However Jay has made us better today).

[ElectroClaret]

Huge time wasting by Hull.

[jedi_master]

I think (hope) Twine is the missing piece that will move us on. We need him to get fit ASAP.

Yes, I feel him playing just behind Jay in the Bastien position is the key. We need a lot more from our wide players (bar Maatsen of course) though also. The centre of midfield and defence is absolutely excellent though. Very solid.

[warksclaret]

In 4 minutes?

How long does he need ??

3 of them shots on target were from over 25 yards.
