Match Thread Burnley v Everton (Saturday 5 December 12:30)

[Jim Hopper]

We've looked better since Delph went off, I guess we are better playing 2 players out of position and our normal formation, rather than playing 532 and 2 players out of position at the same time

No surprise mate lol

Delph was horrific. Shows how much we miss Digne in that spot. Nothing going forward at all.

 

[Bullens Rd]

The board best be putting their hands in their pockets this January.

Watch us persist with having no full backs, finish 12th and see Spurs win the title.

 

[john jako]

Had the best chances in the first half. Should be 2 up

 

[Stephen Gibson]

Dom is the only player this season you can count on to turn up every week.

Have to agree

 

[johnjoeefc]

Got it wrong again needs to get rid of this wingback formation stick 433

I agree 100% Mikel. With that forced change in formation I actually feel we can win this now

 

[KaiserEFC]

Goals a goal but I think it’s more of a reflection of how poor Burnley are rather than how good we are. Let’s get a grip of the system, get some harsh words said and get out and dominate the second half

 

[kenada_blue]

Because Everton.

True.

But the ref saw it and instantly said no. Then there's phases of play. So how can it be looked at? They just make it up as they go along

 

[OneTrueLegend]

I thought they were going to try and VAR that goal up then, thank god we got it back to 1-1, need to keep the pressure on these, they can crumble

 

[Parker]

The best thing Delph could do for us that. We've looked way better since that slugs gone off.

 

[Davidoff]

Midfield need to start tracking back - back line keeps dropping whenever oppo attacks and midfield just stops

 

[Tubey]

Can't get over how terrible we are and that initial team selection. Abysmal.

Feel sorry for Burnley but it was one moment of quality in the whole half for the equaliser.

 

[matty1878]

Richarlison has had a good first half. He is the only one giving Burnley problems.

hes our best player by a mile

 

[Jim Hopper]

Great refereeing for the goal, so many times you’d see them take the easy route and blow the whistle there.

Honestky thought he was gonna pull it back for a second there. By the replays it seemed they were determined to find a foul on BT Sports.

 

[ForeverBlue92]

2-2 written all over it
