The Man City guy we were supposed to sign has played 1 minute for them so far. Admittedly permanent rather than loan but shows the different worlds

Wouldn’t mind at all if we could “shithouse”, as they say, an ugly 1-0 win.

It’s time we turned up the heat and caught some teams.

Hopefully we don't go out for a draw.

Difficult though isn’t it? Concede first and it’s an uphill struggle

Also depends if there are fitness issues going into the game how we shape up

They dominate possession and are susceptible to the counter. Allen in particular will have to use the ball better if we are to get a result

A win today I think and it will give us a real sense of belief through the whole club after a ropey start on and off the pitch.

Going for the win, anything else and I’ll be slightly disappointed. With a little bit of momentum gained over the last 2-3 games I’m hopeful of the 3 points.

Maybe stating the obvious, but a win today would really be massive.

Builds on the momentum, increases confidence in the camp and puts us in a good position with games in hand.

If we end up around mid table before the (ridiculous) WC break, majority of which without our (joint) best player in COH and another of our “best” players in Hamer, that’s a good place to be.

He'll be an influence for them if he's allowed space to use the ball.
Defensively he's a liability.

Walker not posed much of a presence in the past, really hoping he does a job today. And if he does, hopefully not unfairly dropped like last season after bagging a couple of goals.

Maatsen is prone to losing his head when he gets a bit bullied.

We don't ever target like people do to hamer.

Burnley have a habit of conceding late goals, so if it is close towards the end it might be possible to exploit them.

Yeah in my memory we’ve never been that team. I’ve never seen an opponent get a silly booking and constantly get picked on for the remainder. Can only ever think of Michael Doyle being a WUM on the pitch too.

He wasn't unfaurly dropped last season. Gyokeres and Godden were scoring and playing well.

Hope he plays well today.

Yeah opposition players get booked and we don't do anything.

Hamer gets booked and they take it in turns to smash him.

See deeney just before hamer got sent off.

It’s a big game - I doubt he will get a lot more chances from Robins.

He needs more than 1 game though. Usually need a run in the side

Walker struggling to find the goal and I don't see that changing any time soon.
But I hope I'm proved wrong.

When given chances he usually puts them away. But Gyo hasn't really been one for sharing lately and Allen diffuses more than he creates

Quite hard to find a goal when you are rarely on the pitch

He was dropped after 2 in 2, it was unfair

He was dropped after scoring 2 goals in 2 games, I’d say that was unfair.
