Burnley away Sunday 14th Sept 2pm

[Kenneth]

We were never going to score without that penalty.

Just before that, Robbos corner was a disgrace.

It was appalling. LB looked absolutely sorted in the summer, but it's looking a bit dodgy at the moment. Kerkes looks to be struggling with the step up and Robbo is still toast, and Kostas is in Italy.

12/12 points with Isak to come in and the team yet to click. That deserves a beer tonight.

Bus Parker and his team got what they deserved. But. We. Were. Abysmal.

Looking back, the result gives us 3 points regardless…..

We can afford to draw our last game and we'll still win the league Enjoy the beer.

Well, that’s 94 minutes none of us will ever get back but we’ll take the three points and hopefully learn a few lessons.

[RedReet]

I guess Mo won't be giving the pens to Isak then.

Glad it was that Manc prick that conceded the pen too, he'll be remembered for more than just kicking as many Liverpool players as possible in a short period of time.

Oh, Rio MOTM BTW. The league is in big trouble whenever we feel he's ready to be a regular starter.

Better to play Robbo and give Kerkez cameo’s until he can shake the small fish in big pond syndrome

Burnley will get praise for battling and grinding but when you stick ten in the box and show zero ambition to even leave your own half you just shouldn’t.

I am not saying they should go at us but there is a better balance than that. And while it was a struggle to break them down that’s an extreme level of the low block that you don’t usually deal with and most teams would find hard to breakdown.

But they kept going til the end and forced a mistake with the pressure and got a bit lucky to win. I’m not going to get too worried about the performance because most teams will show more ambition than Burnley and this team will only get better as it builds and having Isak in the box on the end of some of those crosses would have made a difference.

Champions and top of the league, we're going to have even more bus parking than before, and need a revised plan for these games based on more patient controlled possession nearer the half way line.

Grav was our best player imo

[danperkins]

Thought Grav Slob and Gakpo were very good today.

Burnley defended well, but biggest factor for me was it being the first game after the internationals this early in season. We obviously lost last year and struggled against Wolves the year before that.

3 points is all that matters, don't give a **** about performance.

Also means any result in Manchester derby is a good result.

[BootRoom]

It's amazing how 3 points dissolves any ill feeling toward our performance. On to the next game.
