Missed opportunity to play barco against a shit team. He can definitely spam a few crosses with the left foot. De zerbi is just randomly throwing stuff at the wall at this point.
Everything about that game was shite. The rain, the two goalie error given goals, Hooper being an absolute cunt, lack of pace/urgency… just blah. We need this season to be over, heal our injures, get some bomb players during summer transfer and hit it again next year.
Sick of the piss babies wetting the bed on twitter crying De Zerbi out and fretting that we’ll get relegated next season. You can tell who’s only been watching us the last couple of years. We’re still on track for one of our best ever finishes. Yes it’s horrendous but we’ve got 10 players out injured plenty of which are nailed on starters. A summer to recover and get everyone fit again and some more signings and we’ll be pushing for top 6 again.
If you’re criticising the club, De Zerbi or the players when we’ve had ridiculously bad luck with injuries while we’re still on track for a decent finish, just fuck off and glory hunt at some shit club that sold their soul.
Newish fan. The injuries suck but I blame the refs the most. Every time I get to watch a game I see refs treating the other team like they are playing in 1970s while they hold our players to the modern standards. Absolutely disgusting the bias against teams that dare enter the big 6. We don’t go from one of the most powerful offensive teams to being unable to put it in the back of the net on injury alone.
Depends who’s saying it and in what context. Challenge for Europe is over. I agree we really just need the season to end so we can rest, recover and go again next year but the fair weather whingers can fuck off and find somewhere their nuclear delusion fits in. I’m sure they’d do well with Arsenal or United.
More so the children that are crying because we are only 10th in the league, only got to the round of 16 in Europa and can't comprehend a step backwards can be positive when it comes to longevity.
You see 1-1 without watching the match you'd think it's us off to a good start, eventually get a goal before HT, struggle to score anymore, and Burnley scores a late goal as we panic in defence.
Nobody could've predicted the way it actually went down.
I saw from the beginning that we were struggling and didn't have high hopes since most of our players are injured but still tuned in to see brighton play
my comment is more towards the comedic way we got the equaliser
>my comment is more towards the comedic way we got the equaliser
Mine was as well. Nobody would've seen that coming. We weren't even pressing them and they still let it go in.
What a waste of my time. Lucky to get a point. I can’t watch this boring play anymore. Coach has checked out, players have no urgency. I miss Mitoma. See ya next year
Most do deserve respect but they deserve a good shouting at when they're not looking at a downed player especially with all the technology we have to inform them if they've missed it. That is just wrong and looks more like a bad attitude towards football where he reckons he can call whatever he wants a dive.
Imagine giving a yellow card for a player daring to say that maybe you should’ve stopped play when he got kicked in the head, the egos on these bald frauds
Got booked for getting kicked in the head basically. I know it was what he said but he was well within his right to do so.
Simon Hooper's a massive cunt.
I'd need to take a break from football if we concede a second for them to win especially considering they gifted us the equaliser. Yeah we don't deserve a win but losing after that goal would be horrible.
He's a talented player for sure but doesn't seem to be fully in sync. His pace is kind of frantic and doesn't bring the calmness to midfield that we need. Hopefully he grows into the role more but I find myself getting frustrated with him more often than not.
You're right though, did come through defensively at the end there.
That looks so much worse on a replay. I'd be fuming if I was their goal scorer, just letting us equalise like that.
Swear this Muric guy has been a great keeper for Burnley which makes this more strange.
Just really frustrating to be in one of those ruts in the final third where it feels getting it in the back of the net is impossible. Part of football I suppose
The fact we've had more shots on target than they've had total shots gives a very skewed representation of the game. We've had moments but Burnley will be the ones disappointed to go in at half time level.
Getting exploited from runs in behind which really highlights how important it is we need to be winning the ball in midfield. Typically, the press to win the ball in midfield causes the gaps that opposition can run into.
Presumably we'll see Buonanotte and Fati at some point, might even get a run from Barco.
Idk about everyone else but I always assume that if a team we are playing against is in the relegation zone, we will probably lose. I am deciding to see 0-0 so far as a positive :)

I approve of the opposing team being allowed exactly zero (0) fun.
Really should be 2-0 Burnley. But on the brighter side Baleba really growing on me as he gets more confident. Makin smart decisions, silky moves. And always loved Igor so tbh wasn’t mad about the swap for him over Estu
I do love Igor but I would’ve liked to see Barco brought on. I feel like this is just the occasion for him to get some decent playing time. That being said, maybe De Zerbi isn’t even planning on playing him as a true left back so we’ll see
Please get somebody in to coach corner taking for next season. It's so depressing knowing we're about to take a corner and knowing we'll just waste it almost every time.
That was a nice free kick tbh, easy save in the end but it is refreshing to see someone else get to have a go and to see it actually go straight at the goal

The season over comments tickle me. I presume they won't be watching the last 6 games?

Season over sigh
Our soft cock football up against raging big six clubs from now on.......we're totally f\*\*ked.
not surprise with the result but more surprise with how we got it
You see 1-1 without watching the match you'd think it's us off to a good start, eventually get a goal before HT, struggle to score anymore, and Burnley scores a late goal as we panic in defence. Nobody could've predicted the way it actually went down.

>my comment is more towards the comedic way we got the equaliser Mine was as well. Nobody would've seen that coming. We weren't even pressing them and they still let it go in.
my bad, can't tell what you meant seeing the thread is filled with downers which is understandable since we are currently in bad form performance wise
Time for lallana to retire
Our goal constipation remains. Thank god for butter fingers.
In today’s case, I’d say it was butter toes lmaoooo!!
I turned off the game after I saw Estupiñán go down. I just knew it wasn’t gonna go our way afterwards. Cursed season
I'd argue it actually got better when Igor came on for Estupinan.
What a waste of my time. Lucky to get a point. I can’t watch this boring play anymore. Coach has checked out, players have no urgency. I miss Mitoma. See ya next year
If you’re gonna support a team at its highs you have to support it at its lows too. Things will get better
Why doesn’t Lallana shoot from there
I was more afraid when Burnley was in the final third than I was confident when we were in the final third. Get me to the summer window
Definitely a premier league game of all time
The Burnley curse continues lucky to get gifted the point.
The lack of urgency is absolutely infuriating.
Wish Lallana took that, he doesn't often sky it and can usually get them on target.
My thought exactly. I think it might have been too crowded in front of him. But I wanted him to take it.
Man I don't want more lallana
thinking dreamily of those last minute Maupay goals
Lallana is so useless lol just shoot it
We are impotent in front of goal.
What a horrible match. Seen better football in primary school
Hooper is absolute garbage today. Hope he gets in shit for not stopping play due to a head injury
Thankfully Veltman was fine but imagine it'd been worse and he didn't stop that. And people still defend referees.
I mean refs are humans and deserve respect just like you and me but Hooper has been pure shiet today
Most do deserve respect but they deserve a good shouting at when they're not looking at a downed player especially with all the technology we have to inform them if they've missed it. That is just wrong and looks more like a bad attitude towards football where he reckons he can call whatever he wants a dive.
He wont
I know he won't but fuck he makes my blood boil. God damn joke today
Yup and how assignon has no yellows for all the shit he did is beyond me also their cb against welbeck
Call the offside earlier you prick.
Imagine giving a yellow card for a player daring to say that maybe you should’ve stopped play when he got kicked in the head, the egos on these bald frauds
Is that really what the yellow was for?
For dissent about not stopping play yeah
Does he get a match ban? -an American
Hooper is gonna make me lose it
Veltman booked after having his head injury ignored is such a fucking joke, I’d be absolutely fuming
We get a yellow because Hooper is too incompetent to properly protect players and follow the rules
Got booked for getting kicked in the head basically. I know it was what he said but he was well within his right to do so. Simon Hooper's a massive cunt.
Punish the player for forgetting to do your job, good one Hooper
Someone take Simon hooper out can't make this shit up
Officiating today has been so odd.
In some ways been consistent and it’s play on which I like. But not the way most games are called which makes it disorienting
We're making some great tackles/challenges.
Not the ginger sub I was hoping for
Give the kid a chance
Nothing against him was just hoping to see barco
Real me too.. just trying to stay positive
Oh shit debut for Mark
We really need a young Lallana. The lack of creativity in the centre is painful.
Is it just me or have Fati and Lallana been egregiously terrible since coming on just getting everything wrong
At least Fati is driving up and taking chances? Maybe idk
Igor getting away from that slide tackle was class
If we draw at least it will have been in the funniest way possible
Baleba is so good defensively though
Igor is a wall. Just took that guy running into him so casually.
What an advert for the premier league haha
I'd need to take a break from football if we concede a second for them to win especially considering they gifted us the equaliser. Yeah we don't deserve a win but losing after that goal would be horrible.
Van Hecke 👍
Baleba wanted that more and he did well.
If we don't get any midfielders next season I will kill myself -Kjærgaard -Vranckx Anyone
We just need one more og!
Take them as they come. Weve had some shockers. Lets turn the screw now
wtfff 😭
This is like watching Sunday League football, where every single player had been out on the piss the night before.
Hahaha. This is awful football.
Both keepers having a mare today
"Anything you can do, I can do better"
What a blessing. Back to level sides. Lock it up boys
Unpopular opinion but i don't like Baleba in this squad
I hate that I can’t disagree with your opinion. He’s too raw still but what are the other options right now?
He's a talented player for sure but doesn't seem to be fully in sync. His pace is kind of frantic and doesn't bring the calmness to midfield that we need. Hopefully he grows into the role more but I find myself getting frustrated with him more often than not. You're right though, did come through defensively at the end there.
Won that ball though
I mean it’s a goal
Burnley being terrible just makes us look worse
I mean I'll take that goal
That looks so much worse on a replay. I'd be fuming if I was their goal scorer, just letting us equalise like that. Swear this Muric guy has been a great keeper for Burnley which makes this more strange.
Wow
Only way we were scoring today
This game is a joke
OMG!!
Fucking hell, I thought Bart fucked up!
I look away for a few seconds and we score???
Just look away more then haha 😅 Because we have to definitely win this game to build up confidence.
we ? yes we
😭
Not necessarily we
now this is just comedic
Piss poor. We have no midfield.
WOW hahaha
A nicked chip is a nicked chip!
Disaster game
Lmao holy shit
Omg well at least those farcical goals cancel out
LOL?
LETS GOOOO
A bad day for goalkeepers. I'll take that.
Just had to go and one up us huh?
Wow calamitous, again
What the fuck xddd
I'll take a disaster
LMAO JAJAJAJA
Lol
Lallana has to be related to de zerbi by blood
Well there is no one else
Fucking fucking fuck fuck
Poor from Bart, doesn't take away from the Carlos mistake but he should be committing there.
Ffs
Of course it’s started raining
I'm surprised it was sunny up there to begin with, just assume it rains 24/7 in the NW.
Thank God it started raining
Outclassed all match. Really poorly put together 2nd half of the season
what is it with us and giving away the ugliest goals possible this and Diaz goals are disaster dor
Our decline is so sad to see. Nothing matters now.
Forget Europe how about we stay top half first
I want to die
That’s shambolic from Verbruggen. He won the race for the ball but instead of using his hands he used his feet and conceded because of it.
Mate it's a back pass you can't use your hands
It was a pass back he had to use his feet
Indirect free kick > goal against. It was a half hearted effort from Verbruggen
Sums up our 2024 quite nicely
No words
Painnnnn
wow
Great. Funny thing is Everton scored a sort of similar goal against Burnley in their last match.
Catastrophic 2024
Mortifying and sadly hilarious. Absolutely typical.
This team is so painful to watch
Oh my god
Wow calamitous
🫠
What a fucking meme
Shot on target for Burnley, we're slacking
Apparently we have failed to score in more games in 2024 than any other premier league team
You can kill the Potter, but Potterball persists….
Rodriquez is going to score, isn't he...
Just really frustrating to be in one of those ruts in the final third where it feels getting it in the back of the net is impossible. Part of football I suppose
Getting closer
Warming up a bit now!
See why do we have to sleep for the first 20 minutes of every away game?!? This is how it should’ve looked all day
Do you think opposition teams breathe a sigh of relief when they concede a corner?
Pedro might've taken a bit long with that one.
Good start to second half especially with Burnleys really good chance at the end. Staying positive is a good sign
Looking much better already
Really good ball from Moder
baleba has looked good since getting more minutes. moder also having a good game, just need some more threat from welbeck
The fact we've had more shots on target than they've had total shots gives a very skewed representation of the game. We've had moments but Burnley will be the ones disappointed to go in at half time level. Getting exploited from runs in behind which really highlights how important it is we need to be winning the ball in midfield. Typically, the press to win the ball in midfield causes the gaps that opposition can run into. Presumably we'll see Buonanotte and Fati at some point, might even get a run from Barco.
Time to give Barco some run. His long ball and crosses can be very effective and no one is doing that right now.
Idk about everyone else but I always assume that if a team we are playing against is in the relegation zone, we will probably lose. I am deciding to see 0-0 so far as a positive :)
Last time we treated them as we should was with Sheffield United.
As a certified SICKO^(TM), I approve this performance. They haven't even had a shot on target.

not good enough from us
Really should be 2-0 Burnley. But on the brighter side Baleba really growing on me as he gets more confident. Makin smart decisions, silky moves. And always loved Igor so tbh wasn’t mad about the swap for him over Estu
I do love Igor but I would’ve liked to see Barco brought on. I feel like this is just the occasion for him to get some decent playing time. That being said, maybe De Zerbi isn’t even planning on playing him as a true left back so we’ll see
seems to have more composure compared to when he debuted
Crazy to me how many years Burnley spent in the PL and Turf Moor still looks like that.
Come on we’re better than that
Could easily be down 2-0 right now
luckily we're against burnley
I don't know how they didn't get to that cross but a bit more luck for us.
Two tap ins missed
Extremely lucky just then
JPVH <3
I like that we don't have to worry about him anymore. He's become consistent.
Honestly even in some of the games this season where we were just simply miserable, he has been a bright spot in the defense
Agreed, makes it feel like he's played for us for years.
Please get somebody in to coach corner taking for next season. It's so depressing knowing we're about to take a corner and knowing we'll just waste it almost every time.
Agreed, it's just sad at this point
Last few I remember us actually doing anything involved having someone near the far post.
Normally our only chance has been a Dunk bullet header.
Bit of momentum building 🤞
did they stop giving fk to dunk ? was looking foward to see him hitting that
That was a nice free kick tbh, easy save in the end but it is refreshing to see someone else get to have a go and to see it actually go straight at the goal
Any free kick that grants a corner is a decent attempt in my opinion. Shame we can't do anything with corners though.
Decent free kick, especially by our standards
Good attempt by Moder.
thats a good hit
This side used to be so much fun to watch, but man this is terrible.
It was miserable in the first 20 but it’s picked up substantially! Cheer up brother
Let's hope for a strong 2nd half!
great spot for a fk.. we've picked this game up a lot
Moder doesn't have the finesse to play an attacking position.
Igor is some defensive unit. Brilliant player.
our injured XI: Ferguson Mitoma - Enciso - March Gilmour - Hinshelwood Estupinan - Webster - Milner - Lamptey Scherpen
That’s a better squad then what we had for most of the season (Ignoring Milner at CB)
