Congrats to RLB too mind. Hopefully now people see why most were fumming with Dodds and Beale at the helm. A proper, tactical gaffer making all the difference.
And hopefully those who were fuming can also now see how the club deciding to wait till the summer gave them across to a better manager that they could get in February
People did see, no one wanted that situation. There was no point fuming, it was a caretaker situation that was never going to continue. They had no choice either, other than turning their back on the club as Venus did at Birmingham.
The whole back 4 look such a solid unit and have a real understanding. The midfield 3 seem to know exactly when to press and when to sit The front 3 caused chaos. Was it mayender or mundle that made a tackle first half then walked off waving their arms to get the crowd going?
the answer is probably somewhere in the middle. no point debating it or worrying about it now. Only need to think about the present and the future. By accident or design, we’re in a good place now.
Exactly. We've just won three games, three clean sheets,, scored seven and top of the league ... ... surely we can just enjoy that for the evening.
Well that, was f#cking fantastic. The organisation, energy and ability of the players was a joy to watch and Burnley were made to look bang average.
There was a plan following the error of the Beale pick. It represented a gamble but it was bleeding obvious what the club was doing. Early days but it’s paying off so far. Thankfully from a club perspective because a gamble like that had to work out the blocks. The fanbase is quick to react and would have been foaming if we’d started slowly. I just hope that the start we’ve made - plus hopefully some signings in the last week of the window - will settle the fans into a more measured state of mind. There’ll undoubtedly be bumps coming our way at some point.
