Obviously hoping they’d lose but 1 point much better than the 3 that looked a possibility for much of the game
Bad result for us that. Really needed West Ham to put 3 or 4 past them to just put a other nail in their coffin. A draw away to West Ham might just give them a bit of belief.
Then again if the ref is required to add on 4 minutes 59 seconds of added time, the 4th official shows 4 minutes on the board, its nothing new, been the rule since added time was visually displayed by the 4th official Newcastle made a substitution in the 91st minute, so that's another 30 seconds to be taken into account. Thus meaning that added time of 4 minutes being signalled, can quite easily actually be 5 minutes 29 seconds
Klopp is a cnut end of, hope they get beat at the last stage of all comps. Just looking at the crowd at Wembley, lots of empty seats, both teams are less than 20 miles away, piss poor support, can you imagine if we were there!!!!
Maxwell Cornet missed a penalty that would surely have given Burnley a win today and he also missed a 2 yard tap in last week that cost them another point. Turns out he's never taken a penalty in club football before whereas Jay Rodriguez has scored something like 19 from 21. Really glad we didn't sign him as he obviously got issues being a team player.
Does anyone think we'll be relegated this season ? Latest odds with the bookies are 9/1 but with us being 2nd favourites in probably all of our remaining 6 matches perhaps those odds are quite generous.
Burnley is such a shytshow and deserve to go down. The oldest squad in the league and many of them out of contract. That shows you what Dyche was dealing with from his owners. Last summer he hadnt enough players as they were mainly loans because a yank buyer was coming in. So the yank sacks Dyche and whoever takes over will lose many of the players on freebies and have to rebuilding peanuts in the championship. Last time they were relegated 8 years ago Dyche came straight back up….. not this time, could go through the leagues
He’s scored 7 goals in 21 league games this season, I think that might have earned a few points, I know his injury time winner against Everton did. Compare that to Firpo and what he has actually cost us in points, the yellow cards, free kicks, more time out injured, I know who I’d rather have. Throw in his value has probably increased whereas we’d be lucky to recoup half of what we paid for our waste of space…
