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

[Blyth]

Very strange. Didn’t turn up for the second half. The big disappointment for me today has been the midfield three. Really poor

Thought we were lacking creativity 1st half. I would have brought le fee on at HT

 

[Zak's Dad]

First goal was so important, sadly Mayenda blew it today.

Especially against Burnley, if we went a goal up I'd have real faith they'd not be able to change things sufficiently to worry us, and we end up with a match like last week.

Unfortunately they took the lead and it was us being unable to change things.

 

[bahtat]

Too many assumed we'd roll up and win easily here.

That included the Burnley fans

Hume need a rest

Hume need a rest

Game week no 2

 

[Smiler]

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

I'm not entirely sure your first sentence will be very accurate in a few weeks time.

 

[Inside Forward]

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

Let’s see how tough they are this season. I suspect they’ll be bottom of the league in May.

 

[MustardAndOnions]

Not gonna read people implode here!

Lack of goals alway my concern in this midfield, think long term we need lệ fee back in

We were always gonna be in a massive fight to stay up mind, what’s the drama, this is the premier league

 

[Clavas]

We MUST sign a CF

 

[Hetty]

This is the premier league. 3 points from our first two. I'll take that.

Can't lose next week, 4 points is ok after 3 games, but 6 would be better

 

[BingoBango]

There's a match thread for dribbling fannies like you

 

[bowers2]

We are going to struggle against anybody who makes themselves hard to beat we are just devoid of any flair or creativity

They weren’t hard to beat last week. They got smashed.

 

[ChrisAshley]

Seelt isn’t prem ready by a country mile btw. I’m not trying to single him out but he’s genuinely just not very good currently.

Some are trying to convince themselves he is but he'd be 5th choice centre back for pretty much every team in the Premier League.

 

[kingkeane]

should be 3

 

[chopper018]

The passing and crosses today has been awful mind.!!

 

[AstroSchwarz]

We MUST sign a CF

And a CB to cover.

 

[Hulkster]

I wouldn't be surprised if the only sides Burnley beat this season are their fellow relegation teams.

 

[MustardAndOnions]

Had to commit fully once he made the decision to come out there. He just froze

Rash decision to come out like I thought

 

[Snugster]

Normal service has resumed.

 

[Idlewild Mackem]

That Mayenda miss after 3 minutes has cost us big time.

 

[Major]

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

A decent team doesn’t sit back like Burnley. That’s how they’ll play all season
