Burnley v Arsenal Match Preview

[army88]

JGB, God bless him, has said in interview that we are going to try and make it difficult for The Arse. Presumably he means the other ten teammates. Wouldn’t it be better to go into a match with the view that we are going to win the match rather than stopping the other team from playing?

I remember the late, great Jimmy Mac saying that the mentality of the team was always “you score three, we will score four�. Positive, not negative!

Swiss I’ve posted about JBG a lot as he’s become a master at hiding on a football pitch for large parts of games ( sometimes he delivers quality but very rarely does it go past a 15 minute spell in a fixture).

He reminds me of when I was a boy and we’d played notts forest and my mates dad was scout for Burnley at the time so we were corporate after the game , could hear a commotion down at pitch side and shouting ground empty and players bathing etc - there was Brian Clough holding Ronnie Jepsom by his shirt collar shouting to be shown the F k-n hole he’d been hiding in for the game , stuck with me that and JBG is a master at it.
