Our nervousness at the back definitely stems from poor refereeing - he’s given none of our players any protection from most fouls and punished us on most. It’s no wonder we’re nervy

Bilic has set them up quite well against us - they have us a little bit figured out at the minute.

Maybe put another striker on at the half but I expect Vin will make changes

The referee has pretty much got everything right. Just because our players are moaning a lot, doesn't mean they're not fouls. Appreciate we're trying to assert ourselves physically but at the moment we're straying into undisciplined.

Beyer off for Al-Dakhil. Two January buys at centre back is not what I was expecting a few weeks later.

I remember Watford played like this in August, very physical, breaking up the game, as happy to stop us from playing as they are to play themselves.

Team on a record breaking run of wins, playing amazing football. A member of that team makes a mistake and that is your response.
Only one *******plank in sight and it isn’t Muric.

Agree. Allowing ourselves to become frustrated. Been very wasteful with the ball. Need to do what we do and keep our heads.

I'm 44 years old. I've never seen Burnley play so well. Muric however is possibly the worst keeper i can remember. Can you think of worse? He terrifies me on corners and crosses too.

Worst case scenario: We lose and are 14 points clear of 3rd. It WAS going to happen, come on. You expect us to get a neutral referee every game? Give over that was never going to happen - NEVER!

More than capable of winning this still, but we're making very uncharacteristic errors. I think we need Cork on the pitch.

Not too worried. We have created and still look threatening. They are fast on the counter, but cut out some of the sloppy passes and we take control of the game.

Hopefully VK gets into them now. Not seen us so far off it for a good while. Countless times we've been sloppy in possession. Still feel we will win if we get the next goal.

Think we need to calm down, regain our composure and go again second half.
Stop giving the ball away, stop giving stupid fouls away, stop moaning at the ref and relax…

Painful first half with us struggling to string several passes together, Muric making a complete f*ck up for the goal and then an injury to Beyer.

Had a decent last 5 mins but reckon we might need one of the new strikers to show up to the party and get us out of trouble

No Benson game changer on the bench for this one is the only worry. He’s been our match winner when behind.

Muric error was poor but the entire team have been under their levels by a long way, so it’s not right to pick on one man. We’re giving it away non stop, we’re lucky to go in only 1 down in the sense that Watford had so many 3V2’s they didn’t exploit from our own poor passing.

We can only play better. I just hope Beyer isn’t a bad one, we would SERIOUSLY miss him.
