TBF, Burnley have scored from their one shot on target, a low xg chance and gives Alison no chance. We've had 7 shots on target and their keeper has played really well. We've been unfortunate in that way, lots of teams have scored worldies or have had goals scored by players who haven't scored for years.
Funny, we seem to be getting more than our fair share of them
 
Disappointed because first half we were playing against the low block better...although not a very good one... But same old... Somehow it's very tiring completely controlling the possession and 2nd half we need a wee nap.

Fitness, drive, confidence.... Absent.

**** off slot

That sounds very familiar!
 
I thought it was a better performance than some of the wins we've had tbh, but it was a case of getting the hard work done first half, switching off for 5 mins, then having to do the hard work all over again with 60 mins already in most players' legs.
 
Not exonerating the manager from responsibility here, but the players must take it equally, imo. The team he put out should win that game, and once they're out there he hasn't much control over them.
I saw little wrong with the selection or the tactics there, so it's largely down to them.
 
If I was a pool fan then I would hope the board would be saying “thanks, but no thanks” to Slot tonight and praying that you could some how hijack the Guehi deal.
