He scored against Man United (great goal though we were 4 down at that point), then against Villa at home and Forest away. I remember the Grimsby and QPR goals, but no idea about the other two.

Should have been a straight red, even then. Then the ball hitting Cryrille's thigh and given as a pen, and Gynn getting barged out of the wall for the free kick winner. I still feel robbed now. The terrace that day was frighteningly crammed.

And an own goal against Charlton. Don't forget that. I think, considering he came for what was big money at the time, in my time supporting the club, he's been our worst ever signing.

The Hummel kit is a classic, but I love green and don't like yellow, so there you go.

Brainless.

You've sounded like one in this thread, tbf.

I blame that Italian woman with the two-players bursting through on the left who blootered the ball brainlessly towards goal for that.

Oh, come on!

I can't see it. Is this for the best?

Fucking hell, you're a teacher?

I said he has to prove he is better, which will be difficult.

Because I think it would be an unnecessary risk to drop one of the best players in his position in the division, who could clearly preform at a higher level. But that's moot, because I don't think Lampard would drop him if he's still here (and without a deal lined up).

Made in where?

Well, if Lampard thinks he's better, then he'll play him. I would not be onboard with that decision, certainly not before KKH has kicked a ball in anger for us, but that would be relevant to precisely nothing.

If MvE's still here you play him. The new lad has to prove he's better, which will be difficult.

To be fair to Moyes, he did get one of those jobs, but at the worst possible time. I rate him highly, and think he's been slightly unlucky in the Man Utd job hurting his reputation somewhat. But I digress.

Even when the evidence to the contrary is staring them square in the face? When something's not working, in whatever line of work you are undertaking, then you need to try something else. And it was very much what you implied, whether you meant to or not; "it's ridiculous to think of he had...

They'd agree, presumably! Two of the best kits in world football.

Colours with black stripes just works, doesn't it.

So you're saying that when a manager's techniques are clearly not working, they should continue to fail their employers on the hope that a better job comes along? Kompany's job was to get as much success as possible for Burnley. He did not have the necessary ability to achieve that. That...
