Match Day Thread Burnley FC v Sunderland AFC – Friday 17th January 2025 - KO 20:00

How good is our midfield of Neil, Jobe and Rigg. Just quality

 

Bellingham saving arse for Neil and Patterson there like. Class.

 

He's being told to hit it to the wings, he has to be. Their keeper has done it twice.

 

Enzo can play.

 

Bellingham is a clever player

 

I’m getting sick of hearing he’ll be a premiership player next season with or without Sunderland

**** OFF!!!!!

 

Neil has played well but there's been a couple times he should have played 1st time but took an extra touch which brought more pressure

 

Same.
He will though.

And it won’t be Palace levels.

 

I hate how they always have to mentioned Jude Bellingham at some point during one of our games

I get that he's quality but just comment on Jobe

 

Decent half after a shaky start.

We can win this for sure.

 

I only see Jobe in our CM tonight. Presence and ball. I want to see more from Rigg and Neil TBH. Wing play is lacking. That said it's a good team we are up against. We have a load of gears to go though mind.

 

2 decent teams to be fair. I would take a draw but hoping we can sneak the win. Were not phased at all and the fans have been brill.

 

Im a tad early but hoping our first change is Mayenda for Rigg, and then Le Fee go central with Mayenda on the left. Rigg hasn't done enough first half

 

One goal will be enough I think

 

Very impressed with both Burnley centre backs. No surprise there. They get the ball wide really quickly as well.

 

Grew into it for sure

Still feel we need better balance out wide

Trafford looks uncomfortable when Isidor presses him

Rigg looks more like it tonight and Roberts started to get on the ball towards the end

 

Gotta agree. We were good. Jobe and Enzo standing out for me

 

HT 0-0 Not great

 

I think Neil has been quality. Rigg is definitely drifted out of the game.

 

I'd be swapping Enzo around with Rigg to get him on the ball more. Rigg has probably been pushed in too early for me.
