Thread: Unbelievable

    Unbelievable

    I am not sure if my nerves can take much more, what has happened I accept Watford have struggled but another magnificent performance, old fashioned management play to your ability and nullify the opposition in the last 10 minutes, every single player giving there all I have always believed we could survive and still do, keep playing the same way and who knows UTC.

    Could have been 1-3 had Lennon put his chance away.Credit to the team they stuck at it.Really pleased for Jack Cork and Josh Brownhill.Our 2 midfielders scoring is unprecedented in the last 5 seasons.It is a funny old game!

    We were miles the better team in the second half.

    What a magic two minutes too!

    was unbelievable mike....though can't say I agree with our performance being magnificent, first half was ghastly...and second only livened up when Watford sat back....they even played some fast incisive football that i'd be happy to see at Burnley, so good they failed to score or defend their lead.....was gutsy from us, didn't give up and managed to take all the points, perhaps Corks diving header gave us focus, and the added impetus to go all out, whatever it was, was a Super recovery.

    52% possession, when was the last time we had most possession in a PL Game ? Have we ever had most possession in a PL game, before today ?

    Pope made a crucial save when we were1-0 down, it was a game changer. Vydra was brilliant, he did a back heel that was exquisite but didn't come to anything. I was trembling at the end, brilliant second half and great team spirit.. The away fans were brilliant too.

    I took a wild guess - Sinkov...and chose Norwich....Burnley ended that game with 55% possession, and we lost.

    vs watford....we had the better of possession at little over 20 mins into the second half, and I dont think went under 50% for the remainder of the game - but surprisingly, with no subs and sitting so deep for so long, Watford kept it at around 45%... our wose spell was early in the first half when we dropped to under 30%.

    Looking at the remaining fixtures and considering our advantageous goal difference, I think Leeds are doomed.

    I was thinking it might have happened back in the day against Pulis's WBA, they had even less use for possession than we had.

    Congrats - impressive run Burnley have put together - hoping Everton continue to be unimpressive!
