Match Day Thread Burnley FC v Sunderland AFC - Saturday 23rd August 2025 - KO 15:00

Yeah agree. Just didnt get going at all when we wasteful in the first half.

 

I’m all for being patient but this is too slow. Far too slow.

We playing into their hands.

 

Coventry 7-0 ffs

 

Just looks like they are working harder to me. Reminds me of us that's week. The effect of the home crowd.

 

Just think we need to inject some pave into the progression from midfield to attack. Give them less time to organise.

 

Last 2 subs for me

Masuaku on for Reinaldo - more attacking minded
Guiu on for Sadiki

Go 442

 

Bit surprised by our subs there. Feel like we've taken off our pace, especially in wide areas. Let's see

 

Yeah I would go for that. It's too static at the moment and we don't seem to be working as hard.

 

Do we know we losing here? Some ****ing urgency please!

 

This is grim. Can barely get into their defensive third never mind get a shot on goal.

 

This isn’t exciting but it’s more controlled now …

… they’ll back off now so it’s up to us to score.

 

We'll get something out of this. Patience.

 

We are just moving it so slow, which is letting yhem get set up

Forgot seelt came on so only 1 sub left so surely has to be guiu

 

We look worse with adringa off to me.

At least he had pace on that side

 

Yep taken our pace and width away, feels like that's played into their hands

 

Good 20 mins left here

Haway

 

The whole midfield just wants to play the simple, safe pass. The one with creativity is Le Feè and he's stuck out on the wing.

We need someone from midfield to drive with the ball or else we need Masuaku on the wing and Le Feè replacing Sadiki in the middle.

 

This has been a shocker of a second half mind.

 

15 mins
Ha’way just score a goal

 

It’s interesting actually because for rlb entire tenure have we really been a side to take on a low block

very much a transition coached team
