I think weve been poor again, far too slow. Full backs constantly 15 yards behind the winger, KDH, Gueye and Illy wasteful with the ball. Beto just feeding off absolute scraps.

We'll need a 2nd here because we've seen this film before. We should be doing much better against a really, REALLY poor Burnley side but we seem intent on playing like absolute cloggers ourselves most of the time.

That rugby kick start from kick off can gtf as well by KDH, proper embarrassing that.
 
….having our best spell of open play in that last 10mins. Relatively comfortable without being constructive, not surprising the goal came from a set piece.

Hard to break down those defensive numbers without more tempo in the top third.

Burnley recently equalised late on for draws at Chelsea and RS, will feel much better if we can get a cushion here.

No no, he's fine this game, don't get me wrong, no criticism on the overall to him - we're just taking away his only good quality on the ball when the option *is* available to swap him and Ndiaye on the wings. See my post before yours too
Fair play, I was a bit eager there!

In principle I have no issue with the whole inverted winger thing but - crucially - only if you have FBs bombing on the overlap. We most certainly do not.
 
They are woeful. Need to be careful not to come down to their level. A few moments where we were playing at walking pace, especially off the ball. They could 100% nick something if we don't switch on and get back into shape quickly. We look like we are entitled to win.

Gueye very frustrating, at times looks a million dollars, and then in an instant looks shabite. That shot, jeez

Get another couple please, this aint over until it's 3-0.
 
McNeil off for George will open these up. He’s had some decent touches but he’s not getting past their back line much. Get someone running at them down their left and the game is done.

Ireogbunam or Rohl for Gana will allow us to pressure 5yds further up the pitch. They crumble whenever we get close to them.
I’d take Gueye off for George. Put KDH in the middle and McNeil at 10.
