So just to summarise....Kenedy is brought in to solve left back issues. Instead, he's playing left wing. We then loan out a young left winger, Aarons. Tonight we play the last left winger Rafa bought, Atsu, on the right. Another winger Rafa bought, Murphy, is on the bench. Have I got that right? This in particular is hard to blame Charnley for.
Absolutely true... however we look fairly well balanced... Just need a striker to finish the chances we'll spurn tonight... wink wink, nudge nudge.
Diame actually playing really well. Atsu should have scored pathetic effort. Perez playing like a fanny. But we are doing ok. Kenedy looks a good player.
That’s because they are drilled at defend defend defend. And when we get a chance it’s like rabbits in the headlights.
They get one chance and score although it was a foul but it just emphasises the fact that we don’t take our chances and most teams do. Normal play is resuming now panic stations and fouls galore. Queue a goal just before half time for Burnley.
As usual, getting progressively worse. Atsu/Perez both absolutely ****ing shocking. And to think at least one of them will stay on the pitch for 75 minutes regardless.
This is ****ing gash. How is Slimani making the slightest difference to this ****? Another abomination of a tactic from Rafa. Players look like they have no idea what they're doing, none at all. Apart from run back quickly.
Atsu shoots for 25 yards.... Shiiiittttttttttttttt. Slow looper at the goalie. I take it I'm the not alone in hoping for a draw....
