I thought he was caught flat footed and never had a chance with the pace of Elanga.

He also got away with one a bit earlier where Elanga could have scored also, but Dub’s saved it.

Again, and I keep saying it, but I’m not saying Burn is a bad player… he offers a lot on set pieces in our box (though he gives the foul away often that he helps defend) and offers a lot offensively in the opposition box… but he offers very little playing the ball out from the back and he’s always gonna be done by a pacy or tricky winger.

My neighbour is a Man U fan (he’s Irish so it’s a 50/50 he would be &#128521 and he said the only time he had thought Antony looked like a good winger was against us.

Without the protection in the middle then Burn is exposed, but even with Joelinton I think we loon better going forward with Tino on the left than Burn.
