***Burnley FC v Sunderland AFC Premier League Kick Off 3pm Match Thread***

[BucketBiff]

I hope this will be a wake up call to those who are happy to go a full season with the 3 strikers we have

Said at half time his finishing will cost us points. That was on a plate. Mind lads likely to score a few wonder goals to balance it up

 

[AndrewP]

Seelt made me rather cross for the second mind

He's not good enough.

 

[Steve Leeds]

Haha , it’s the hope….

I know.

Well I should.

On holiday and organised my whole day around this.

Will I ever learn?

Hope not. Ha.

 

[Randy Ostrich]

It might do us good after last week, reality check for the club, there are no easy games in the Premiership

This.

Shame we didn't take our chances in the first half but it happens. At least all 3 promoted teams have won a game now.

 

[Dibble]

Reggie looks like a man on the brink.

 

[CharlieCroker]

You're back then ya silly sausage.

Was just thinking the same. As predictable as night following day

 

[billybobmackem2312]

Need a top class CF mind, the difference in this league is taking your chances.

 

[Darlo1973]

So Xhaka has gone from our "best signing ever" to the target of the boo boys in a couple of weeks.

Yes, it was a bad performance but we were never going to play like last week all season.

 

[SPUFF]

We’ll get absolutely mullered if we face a decent team playing like this.

 

[jaxaxe]

Sound has gone on my stream.

In fairness, I turned the fker off myself.

 

[GiantHogweed]

Second half has been an appalling performance mind, wtf did Le Bris say at half time?

Was a likely response after the high of west ham opening match sadly with our young team.

Goal is still finishing above the cut line this season and it likely won't be easy.

 

[Mowgli]

Burnley are a very tough team to beat.
They only lost two games last season if I remember rightly.

Yet they will lose majority of games this season

 

[Lord Nigle]

Fine margins - buries that and we win this easily imo

As it was Burnley were happy to stick to their theory of start with doing everything for a clean sheet and go from there

Otherwise Pullis Ball

 

[Horden Mackem]

Hume man

 

[G Whizz]

Getting ole'ed by f***ing Burnley man

Been looking forward to this all week anarl

 

[Spargel]

Disgrace? Grow up

 

[houst69]

Poor, typical Sunderland, never mind, there’s always next game

 

[Tom]

Burnley are a very tough team to beat.
They only lost two games last season if I remember rightly.

Haven’t they got virtually a whole new defence?

 

[Sunderlandellight]

Midfield 3 overan, Xhaka has had a stinker today.

Don't think so. But the team has lacked the tools to create meaningful chances and the forwards have looked isolated.

 

[Wrenthorpe Mackem]

To be fair they have been there for the taking

Yet they've scored 2. We've had that mayenda chance and....?
