Good old fashioned 7.30 k/o
Reminds me of our glory days

Just. Don't. Lose.

 

[Del-boy]

Nerves have gone for tomorrow.

Yer just know in the run up to this game that Dyche has been beating his squad with iron bars and feeding them raw red meat....... Have to hand it to him he's a master of dragging Burnley out of trouble.

Our own hateful thieving prideless cowards will shame us yet again.

 

[GoldenToffee]

Win this you spineless gang of slug-paced cowards.​

 

[Baines' left foot]

I hope the away crowd get on our players backs from the first whistle. Boo every poor touch, moan at every miss kick, slag Coleman off for being old.

Make it a bear pit for them players and let them know they HAVE to perform! It’s served us so well until now!

If this doesn’t work then perhaps we can change manager twice in the next two games after it as this also works incredibly well.

Is there any chance that Mina makes it back for this?

 

[Davideeyore]

At least Keane is out. For me he's the epitome of everything negative at the club on the pitch.

 

[Del-boy]

It’s win or bust really isn’t it.

 

[Street end man]

A bit of aggression up top. Rondon for me tomorrow. No mug if it gets tough, which it will.

 

[Stuartisitc1878]

lose tomorrow and it's done. even with 9 games left we are finished.
Burnley are going to kick, battle and scrap for everything. If we don't match there effort and energy we'll lose and that's my biggest worry. Our players haven't shown the character, desire or pride this season and when things get tough they all hide.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

This is my XI:

Begovic

Holgate - Branthwaite - Godfrey - Mykolenko

Doucoure --- Van de Beek

Iwobi ------------------------ Gordon
Dele - Richarlison​

Bit of an unusual one, I know, but given the state of the injuries & suspensions and the need to get something from this game I think we need to show a bit more in the final third along the floor, which is why I've put Dele in there as practically a second striker at the expense of DCL. Branthwaite & Begovic will add a bit of height to (hopefully) compete with Burnley aerially. CM is looking threadbare admittedly, but aside from throwing Gomes and/or Delph in there we literally have no options..

lose tomorrow and it's done. even with 9 games left we are finished.

Those two statements are at odds with each other mate.

 

[Death]

West Ham was the chance for the points. These will own us.
