tomphil Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 They need bigger exits instead of a drummer to cater for all those leaving early. iv'e seen many grumblings they can't get away fast enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIMON GARNERS 194 Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 "We're a poor man's Man City atm. Excellent in possession, moving the ball quickly and to feet, we have an overwhelming amount of possession, we've got some real pace and we're really good to watch" I kid you not🤣 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booth Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Just watching MOTD and they are so bad. So lucky it wasn’t a lot more than 3-0. 23 shots for Brentford. Worth watching to see their number 30’s shocking attempt one on one with the keeper. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philipl Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Gone from Dingles will comfortably survive to Dingles will have a bad start but be OK to Struggling to see Dingles getting out of this to Dingles lose to Bournemouth and they are as good as down already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guys that were giving us daily reports of their progress last season seem to be conspicuous by their absence this season. I can’t understand why. Maybe they’ll be back when they win a game. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 They are still only a point and goal difference from safety. I think there will be three teams even worse than them to see them safe. Namely Sheffield United, Luton Town, and Bournemouth. It's not just masochism from me, but also a jinx because I'm usually wrong. 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweaty Gussets Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 It was easy for Burnley last season. they had the biggest budget and the best players. This season is a true test of their manager and he's failing at the moment. They look a soft touch who can only play one way. Not sure what they spent £120m on in the summer but it hasn't improved them from the bits of them I've seen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted October 22, 2023 Moderation Lead Share Posted October 22, 2023 Watched the highlights this morning and was surprised just how bad the defending was for one of the goals. A pass without much pace on it at all crept across the box for a tap in at the back post. The other two goals, fair enough, they were hit very well. I know their manager has a lot of credit in the bank, but I do wonder if their owner will start to panic…. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw a graphic that they were the 10th biggest spenders in world football this summer. The graphic included some Saudi teams so about the 6th or 7th biggest spenders in Europe. Think the figure they spent was £120m. The issue with Burnley iirc was the way the new owners have funded the purchase, mortgaging the club to the hilt basically. They'll probably be fine if they stay in the Prem, but think the issues will come if they go down and stay down for a couple of seasons.

sharpysharps86 Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 The team could gel and come good eventually, but their summer recruitment is looking more questionable with each defeat. Some of their key players last season were loans that haven't been signed permanently, and it appears that Kompany doesn't know his best team yet. They signed a lot of young players that haven't played in this country, never mind the Premier League. The change in goalkeeper continues to baffle me. James Trafford I know did well for the England U21s but he was playing LEAGUE ONE football last season with Bolton, who didn't even go up. The jump up from that to Premier League football at such a young age is putting a lot of expectation on him, especially with their leaker defence. Bournemouth away next up will be interesting.

I did read an article about the debt they put the club in, when buying it. In some ways it seemed like a smaller version of what United did. Spending like they did looks like a real risk, so makes me wonder what their aim is. Cut and run possibly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted October 22, 2023 Moderation Lead Share Posted October 22, 2023 The bottom 5 in the PL this year seem to be a fair bit worse than the rest. Having said that, the GD of the bottom three is already quite bad. Quite a few of them have spent a fair amount of money, too. Goes to show how inflated transfer fees have become… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upside Down Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 I had a look at the premier league table and by god is it a piss poor weak division. The whole league is a shadow of it's former self. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
