Broja

[Swissclaret]

He has had a couple of starts now. What exactly does he bring?

He can?t jump, he is out muscled by defenders, does not link up the play, has no pace so what does he bring to the attack?

[ClaretinBudapest]

He is a big lump.

[wmdave_b]

Looks to be getting fitter and stronger after injury issues, maybe better than 99 percent think, preferred to Flemming currently. I don?t think he was the issue tonight

Much better than Flemming.Zian is Championship quality at best.

He looked like a Premier league striker in the 1st half but lost his way in the 2nd, but to be fair the service to him was poor

I think we were marginally the better team in some areas in the second half. We cannot survive with players “who lost their way”. He should have offered something in the match.

What did Foster or Anthony offer after he came on Swiss.Broja put a good shift in.Foster was at times playing for Fulham not Burnley.

Me being a total anorak of a Burnley fan I will always forgive any player if they gave or give 100%, Broja did that in spades today, it's a great pity Foster is $hite.

I’m going to have to ask the question

What is that made foster so ****e that the rest of the team got away with it and him and Hartman are singled out

For me watching the game Ekdal Esteve and tuanzebe weren’t at the races

Cullen Florentino Larsen also we poor and Broja for that matter ( though it must be frustrating thinking the balls coming only to
Go
Backwards or a. Extra pass sideways all the time.

Big Les started well but ran out of steam centrally

My point being Foster and Hartman were no better or worse than the rest of the team and yet it’s their fault

We have a manager who doesn’t know who to
Pick in positions- how to react to
Oppositions tactics - we don’t start with the best 11 on the pitch - he tells the team and the press he’s proud of losing to better sides and we’re young and learning.

For me we’re learning bad habits not good ones and we’ll get beat all the time unless he gives his head shake and sees what’s happening

Hartman & Tuanzebe for me looked like they had no interest in wearing the shirt, Foster is simply not good enough.

Parker has not got a clue what he is doing. He has to go.

In starting the thread on Broja I was not singling him out. I agree that the team generally is not good enough.

In the case of Broja, having watched him twice now, I don’t really know why we bought him, what his role is supposed to be. Bashley, even at his age, holds the ball better, links up play at the top end and brings others into the game. SD developed the relationship between Woods and Barnes to make life difficult for defenders. We have nothing even remotely like that.

The last paragraph epitomises everything others are trying to say Swiss I think we have no identity and or style of play like you say the woods Barnes partnership was a workout for defences and teams knew that before they arrived.

The contrast is astounding tbh before we were get the ball up to the oppositions last third quickly and get bodies ( or try to ) support them.

Now we play all of our football in front of the opposing back 4 it’s criminal.- I’m not a big fan of slagging players off if I’m honest but criticism I contribute to- I just think we could be so much better than we are with the right selections and formations and someone who
Guides the team - it feels to me that we are lost at the minute - no guidance no changes

It’s insanity repeating the same thing over and over again.

[ballcock]

The lack of heart and desire was there for all to see last night. The effort they Put in against Liverpool where they blocked shots and tracked back, and last night's heartless and lazy performance was quite a contrast.

Hartman was dreadful he should have easily dealt with the cross for goal 1 and just jogged back for goal 3.
I also think Foster should have closed down on goal 2 but he was just ball watching

Another problem with this squad is the amount of players who are out of contract at the end of this season, you can now tell by how performances are dipping that they already have their eye on the exit door.

It's a $hitfest ballcock. No direction. No fight. Clueless selections. I can't be arsed anymore.

[sinkov]

I can't be arsed anymore.

I said to Mrs S I'd watch the game until we went behind, then I'm off. After 8 minutes I gave Mrs S the remote and went to watch the afternoon's racing on my PC. I can't even be arsed to watch them on't box anymore.
