Match Thread Burnley v Everton - Team Prediction, Match Report & MotM Poll

[DanEFC92]

Very good half.

What a tackle by Godfrey at the end

 

[Chegsy]

Burnley only have one way of playing. They haven’t got the personnel to go long. Don’t fall asleep and keep pressing them and there will be chances.

 

[larbert toffee]

Do you know what , and it's the first time in years I could say this , Everton look hard.

Like you really don't want to mess with them

Thinking the same here Jazzy, we should let others do the worrying about us these days, can't believe the gloom and despondency in the relegation thread.

So its interesting, Dyche plan seems to be taking advantage of a lack of Burnley height. They dont want to hit the ball long because our 3 CBs win them all, so we are pressing them to force it. Then when we get even midfield FKs we are pushing up some of our bigger players like Tarkowski we usually dont.

Read recently that we are the tallest team in the league

 

[allen]

Bossed it. Absolutely bossed it.

 

[Matelot]

Give us our bloody points back, you corrupt shower of idiots.

 

[sladen90]

I love the fact that we now seem a unit. Every player who steps out for Everton fights for the club. Great half.

 

[LinekersLegs]

Possession 37%

 

[Ring master]

That sky stat scares me more than Burnley do, Burnley when 2up have lost 73 from 73 - I have that little fear like any who seen it probably may think. even though we are way on top

 

[Ivo]

He actually said “Tarkowski took his eye off the ball, that should have cost him dearly” a neutral pundit would have said “could have cost him dearly”

Why does he hate us? I actually love him for that corner he put in to ferguson in my first derby.

 

[gonetomorrow]

Keane and Godfrey have not disgraced themselves. Yet.

 

[Goat]

Possession 37%

Whats our xG?

 

[Goodison87]

Think our number one has more clean sheets in the tank than the Ritz .. COYB

 

[kleew]

Managerial masterclass by Dyche, playing three at the back to push as many forward as we can to enable the press. Burnley can’t get out and we are first to everything.,

and 5 at the back when defending

Managerial masterclass by Dyche, playing three at the back to push as many forward as we can to enable the press. Burnley can’t get out and we are first to everything.,

Little things like sitting back early, letting the new defense get comfortable and give them help. Not to mention knowing that Burnley won't know what to do when they have possession.
