Just looked at rhe Prem table as it stands and it made me the happiest 8ve been football wise in a while.

Still plenty of time for it to go wrong of course, but it's nice for 15 minutes at least.

we need 3 points mate after 99 mins

Would take this as one ugly 1-0 win right now. Not for the purists, but we're so far from nsno it hurts.

 

[ToffeeTim]

We need to keep playing and go get another.

They're acting very salty at RS media central...

Good job they never get fortuitous goals then isn't it.

Thats on the of more ridiculous goals of the season, I do love to see teams that stupidly over-pass out of the back give up clown goals like that. I do think Kompany is the worst manager in the league.

Now hopefully that weird goal propels us and the crowd with some confidence and we get a second. With the way Doucoure has played Id be minded to throw Chermiti or Beto on instead, and find someway to get Young off

There was 10 seconds left. Why didn’t the keeper just launch it? Don’t get me wrong I will take it but that mistake saved that lot from a massive and negative reaction at the half time whistle

Made up.... COYB

That freak goal papers over the crack but at this time of the season it is all about getting results.

Burnley have to come out at us to win the game, I hope Dyche don`t go full on low block.

I don’t

I want us to attack now they have to come out and play and with their defending it should be routin.

We sit back they will score two in injury time

Honestly we must be setting a record for longest time circling the drain.

For a team who score a lot of their goals from headers (usually set pieces) we play far too narrow.
Think 442 is the best option as the wingers are all too happy to come inside. They need to almost be on the touchline all game and trust having 2 cms and 2 cfs to cover the centre.

With danjuma not being fit, I reckon Harrison should play (I know). But I think he would play better with patto supporting (or Coleman if fit), as it has worked before. And with Myko and Mcneil on the left, thats 4 natural avenues to whip the ball into 2 big aerial threats.

BUT we will probably play 4231 with a cb at rb, young as a winger, and mcneil almost touching Doms balls. If this happens it will be hard to watch and we will hope to score from a corner.

Well I wasn't far wrong. Goal gifted to us but its been a tough watch

Absolutely, enjoy it while you can, theres enough misery in the future to not waste it on a good 15 minutes

 

[matty1878]

Pickford will win this for us

the rest of our players and dyche need to

Jeffers Westerveld type goal. I believe sky are helicoptering poll in to chalk it off.

Still time for Oliver and VAR to have their say during the rest of the game mate, no need for poll or clattenberg anymore!
