Rigg is wonderful but I'd prefer Mayenda wide left and Le Fée central tbh ...
... still, we're clearly the better team and RLB is the man.
Burnley play this 'long ball over the full back' style, just like Preston and others. I honestly believe we're allowing Burnley to run themselves into the ground. We don't need to win this in the first hour, I think we'll wait and then get at them ...
... I'd hate to have to watch Burnley, every game must be identical.

Got to be fully concentrated too here. I don’t think Burnley will over commit so got to be careful we don’t either.
Shout out to patto anarl, that was a quality save.

It was. His kicking gives me a stroke but that save was top level.
Quick thinking and reads the game like a book. Always aware of where his teammates and opponents are.
It's their only tactic, ball over the full back.
We have adjusted and now we can go up the gears
Decent first half. We got to grips with the game after the first 10-15 minutes. Jobe is having a superb game, Dan Neil doing well too. Isidor is motivated, confident and pressing brilliantly. Le Fèe on the left is leaving us unbalanced. It feels like we're only seeing half of his range because he's not really going to go past his man up the wing.
Be tempted with Mayenda for Paddy personally and kill them with pace and movement.
Same. Sometimes I’ll look away when we’ve got the ball at the back for a second and then when I look up it the ball goes flying over cirkins head. Really needs to improve that like
I'd rather have a keeper pull that save off than not save it and be decent with his feet
Playing catch up on this match thread, but I genuinely forget that Jude exists at times. All about Jobe for me, he’s our player and we love him.

Definitely suited for a central role. Can not waste such vision outside.
Decent half that, two very good teams.
ELF looks proper quality, the little touches and passes. I'd rather he was in the middle mind. Roberts has huffed and puffed but no end product again.
Neil, Jobe and Rigg are absolute superstars in the making. Neil has been especially excellent.

And he'd never played with them before. Serious talent.
He's having a decent game but I would be looking to put maybe Mayenda on for Rigg and put Le Fee into the middle. Shame that Mundle is injured, think he would be perfect for this game wide left
Can see why they have the best defensive record. They are extremely well drilled at the back.
Hume not having the best game, pinned back which means Roberts missing support overlapping. Need another RB imo
Missing a decent left winger, regardless of how class elf looks. Mundle or Watson would be great.
Nothing in it overall, but in think Isi can grab one

Good that we have a couple options on the bench to change things
Could see Adil and Mayenda coming on if the game opens up a bit this half

Neil and Jobe looking real quality imo!
We are gonna adore ELF.
You can see he’s levels above in ways. There’s no time taken he’s off with an idea straight away.
