Need to start looking over our shoulder a bit towards the relegation zone.

skyblue025 · Jan 14, 2023

Huffed and puffed but created almost nothing then conceded a soft goal. How many times have we said that over past couple of years?

Brighton Sky Blue · Jan 14, 2023

Play crap, give away chances galore but still win anyway. Must be nice

Good job next week's opponents only scored the 4 away today.

Paxman II · Jan 14, 2023

Played really well in large parts but we failed again to take those opportunities, and in the end that cost us after they caught us cold after the Wilson handbags. Not frustrating just annoying tbh. Could have and should got something there.

So they can waste 3 mins of 5 and get no extra? Games gone seriously take me back to the World Cup where they punished time wasting

What was the point in that for the World Cup? Just to go back to normal after

Macca · Jan 14, 2023

It’s a good effort from a very fragile squad. Burnley will get absolutely battered next season

steve101 · Jan 14, 2023

One piece of sloppiness. Otherwise solid performance. Why Robins didn't bring on Burroughs for Norton-Cuffy earlier is beyond me. On a yellow and clearly flagging. Rose stepped up today.

David O'Day · Jan 14, 2023

Deserved a draw in a game i expected nothing from

Sky Blue Pete · Jan 14, 2023

Dabo been good

stupot07 · Jan 14, 2023

Since returning from the world cup break we have in all competitions we have
Played 8
Won 1
Drew 3
Lost 4

Lost Fadz and O'Hare to injury plus others. Been left with just 1 first team striker and 1 attacking midfielder.

It's been a disaster.

Could have been a lot worse and this week gone, people expected it to be a lot worse.

Frustrating not to get anything given the chances but lets remember how threadbare we are and look to getting some bodies in

skyblue025 · Jan 14, 2023

Zero shots on target today.

Finham · Jan 14, 2023

Chins up fellas, I for one was expecting a hammering after Wrexham. We had an emergency formation, a ref with a Burnley kit on underneath his black and yet had a great spell first half. You look at their bench and you look at ours, they were ALWAYS going to be able to bring on quality as our knackered players faded totally, and so it was. At least Doug knows we need more (as I am sure he did already).

Dirk Turpin · Jan 14, 2023

On paper that's not too bad given the state of the squad and the off the pitch stuff. Most people were expecting a loss today, but having watched it we had our chances to win, which makes it even more frustrating to get nothing out of the game

We need bodies through the door asap as the squad is paper thin, it won't take long before we start picking up further injuries to the starting 11 if we dont rotate

I don’t even think fifa know, games fucked and rotten past 10 years the game has been changed so much and not for the better.

FIFA trying to send a message, respective domestic FA's saying "we can't hear you!"

ccfc922 · Jan 14, 2023

If them cunts had of out played us, I'd take it but they were dog shit and we were gifted chances, could have won that 3+ to 0.

stay_up_skyblues · Jan 14, 2023

Did alright, better than expected. Once Vik fluffed his 1 on 1 you knew how it was gonna go.

New lad looks promising.

Dabo defended well and deserve a mention after recent criticism.

Nobody shocking, nobody brilliant.

Blind-Faith · Jan 14, 2023

Pissed off and proud at the same time. Should of taken a point from that. Vik didn’t even miss that one v one because he didn’t even get a shot away, shocking. Dabo laziness lost his man and he scored, piss poor from him.

apart from that, a great effort considering the bench we had from the rest of them.

Switch off once they score. They switch off half a dozen times and get away with it. Today isn't on the defence

What was the point of the World Cup? it’s stopped our momentum.

Corrado · Jan 14, 2023

Everyone expected a hammering before the game so why all the moaning now?? At a stretch we deserved a point but wasn’t to be. Onto the next one hopefully a stronger fuller squad

How many times has Gyokeres missed a 1 on1 this season. Cost us at least a point today.

Less moaning more just disappointment. Harsh result really

clint van damme · Jan 14, 2023

Stating the obvious but we need 3 or 4 decent additions in.
It's inconceivable we don't get at least a couple in before next Saturday.

I assume that the directives in place for the WC weren't part of the league's at the start of the season and don't want to/can't change them mid -season

I didn't think so either, they did well.

skyblueinBaku · Jan 14, 2023

Same old story - don't take our chances and then get punished because our team hasn't been adequately funded.

That sums it up.

hill83 · Jan 14, 2023

Wasn’t expecting anything out of today anyway. Could have been worse.
We need numbers in the squad desperately.

Come on Douglas.

Adge · Jan 14, 2023

That’s what happens if you don’t take your chances. They inevitably wore us down and got the goal. Again a basic cross which our nieve defense can’t cope with and they score.

How many goals has he scored this season?

They pretty much did what was asked on them. Allen twice in the first half, then Palmer, and then Gyo inexplicably not even shooting for a 1 v 1. A better side would have torn Burnley apart today.

ProfessorbyGrace · Jan 14, 2023

Losing fair and square is one thing, but losing to a goal that shouldn’t have stood is another blow to the player’s confidence. If only, if only…
We need a striker, a goal scoring midfielder, a centre back and probably two more players for the bench at this rate. Simply has to be done, otherwise I’m not confident that we can even stabilise and finish mid table.

Some positives though, from today: Cuffy looks promising and we’re clearly creating chances, but there’s no end product. Allen can’t shoot for shit, Palmer wants too much time before taking a shot, and there’s Vik running his arse off with no support.

Hopefully, there’s a few signings in the pipeline next week.
