Come on Redmen!!
Well the ride continues. Surely the emotional wave we are riding after Alisson’s late winner will see us over the line this week. Who wasn’t dancing around after the goal and crying after the interview? We were guilty of both!
Good news is Burnley got a spanking at the weekend and don’t really need to win and we do, big time.
Big shame about Jota and we do not seem to have many options so Gini back in for Curtis looks likely.
Should be able to get a strong win here as they can get taken apart. 3-0 to the Reds for me.
Thiago to continue his tandem partnership with Fab.
Thoughts?

Congratulations to Chuck Norris on his man of the match performance.

Quite remarkable.. Burnley don’t field a single black player…. Which is quite something…

0 we’re underway at a sunny turf Moore

Surely has to score.

TepidT2O · « **Reply #6 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:18:09 pm »

2 Williams passes it to a Burnley player….!

Lots of pressure ensues …

A quick break by the reds, Robbo plays Salah in, but what a recovery tackle in the area.

Cross into the area by TAA, it’s deflected and Mane hits it wide from 5 yards

6 Philips vs Wood is quite a match up…

Big swinging cross into our area which Alisson strikes to claim

Confident grab by Ali there - absolutely oozing with it

7 keep calm keep calm goes Robbo….

9 cross into our area, misses the front post but the Burnley full back can’t take it at the back post.

Corner to them, cleared before Mo gives it away on the edge of the area. Alisson saves the eventual shoot.

Poor start so far

BobPaisley3 · « **Reply #11 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:25:15 pm »

Our passing is dire at the moment.

Give it to Thiago I say.

11 Fabinho disposed, Williams does well and we get a goal kick. Dangerous again

TepidT2O · « **Reply #14 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:28:47 pm »

13 we piss around with it at the back… almost give it to them… not a good idea.

Good move follows and Bobby feeds Robbo on the left. His cross is blocked

TepidT2O · « **Reply #15 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:30:23 pm »

114 Robbo shoots for the edge of the area (or was it a cross?)
Corner

Left footed …and cleared …

There’s no point in giving us corners

Over to Jill

Burnley not subtle with their gameplan either - surprised they don't have a couple of trebuchets to launch that ball upfield

Fair enough… they’re not a side with money.. you cut your cloth etc…

15 A good break from us a great ball by Salah into the Burnley box but Bobby can't work his magic with it and Burnley come away with it.

Such a cool backheel from Mane deserved the eventual shot to be on target at least

jillcwhomever · « **Reply #20 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:33:51 pm »

17 We've had 75% possession so far, but still haven't tested the keeper. We had a tense bit before as we were pinned in our area but eventually get out. But after a little bit of passing about Burnley get the ball back.

jillcwhomever · « **Reply #21 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:35:55 pm »

19 Wood with his usual "holding" up the ball say nothing of holding Phillips as well, but we get the ball back. A pass from Thiago forces Mane out wide. But we are finding it difficult getting through the Burnley back line.

TepidT2O · « **Reply #22 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:37:24 pm »

Could do with… you know.. shooting?

jillcwhomever · « **Reply #23 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:37:46 pm »

21 Sustained bit of pressure from us, but we're just passing it around and it isn't really hurting Burnley at all. Now Burnley get a free kick about half way down the pitch.

jillcwhomever · « **Reply #24 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:39:03 pm »

23 We get the ball again and try a longer pass then Thiago falls over before he has a chance to get the ball.

jillcwhomever · « **Reply #25 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:40:21 pm »

24 Burnley arses moaning about Phillips with Wood doing his usual leaning in on the defender.

TepidT2O · « **Reply #26 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:40:52 pm »

We’ve got 6 players forward… and all of them are standing still…

Difficult to pass to that when they’re all marked

jillcwhomever · « **Reply #27 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:41:46 pm »

25 Very close to Burnley taking the lead, a ball over Rhys and Alisson was struggling a bit but it is hit wide.

Rush 82 · « **Reply #28 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:42:15 pm »

Let off by a poor finish by Wood

He wasn't sure whether to come forward or stay back - coming forward was probably the better choice so he got away with one there

jillcwhomever · « **Reply #30 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:43:39 pm »

27 I would like to say we're creating chances, but it's just turgid at the moment. Burnley have so many people back we are playing really slowly and every ball seems to get thumped out.

BobPaisley3 · « **Reply #31 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:44:09 pm »

Oh fuck off, another golden chance.

TepidT2O · « **Reply #32 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:44:15 pm »

Arrrrgggggggggghhhhh

Rush 82 · « **Reply #33 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:44:54 pm »

Och! Chance for Thiago - tight angle but he could have chipped the keeper if he'd kept his composure

BobPaisley3 · « **Reply #34 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:44:58 pm »

And another

TepidT2O · « **Reply #35 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:44:59 pm »

jillcwhomever · « **Reply #36 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:45:05 pm »

29 First hint of an opening there, involving Salah, Bobby and Thiago who perhaps should have done better. The keeper came out quickly though.

jillcwhomever · « **Reply #37 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:45:50 pm »

29 Then Salah gets behind the defence but can't put it away perhaps the ball got caught under his feet a bit?

Rush 82 · « **Reply #38 on:** May 19, 2021, 08:45:57 pm »

Aaargh! and now Mo chips one over that he should have kept down
