I doubt he wouldn't have been happy sat on the bench today, he said that he was only using Burnley has a stepping stone to greater things.
The arrogance of the Dutch is on another level.
They are straight talking and to the point, but when you say it as it is to them, the toys are everywhere
Didn't watch the game today prefered to spend time on my sunbed, but reading the ratings Pires was excellent and unfortunate to get sent off
Pires was excellent and deserves a run and so does Edwards. Couldn't fault Burnley for effort this week.
Based upon his performances of late and an inability to get a corner past the near post, I can’t see teams rushing in to buy him. For him, Burnley may be a stepping stone to playing in League 1 or League 2. He is nothing special.
Pires was unlucky to get a red card yesterday and, until his sending off, caused Newcastle more problems than Hartman has caused other teams.
Atwell hates us. Foul by Goldilocks on Dubravka not given. Marginal tap on cheating, diving Elanga who has loads of previous.
I enjoy the EFL much more.![]()
Pires call up was purely Parker grasping at straws - Hartman has done nothing wrong in fact hes done more right than wrong.
The near post corner is because we are limited as to
Players attacking a dead ball so a flick on is his instructions to deliver near post areas.
He gets very little protection when Anthony plays In Front of him and is constantly under pressure as we mess around with the ball in our own third of the pitch for 70 mins of games playing blind balls around corners and losing possession.
I understand the principal of drawing teams onto us to create spaces but you need to be direct and have Pace to stretch teams once youve drawn them up the pitch to open the areas to go into.
Koleosho has that pace but we loaned him out in favour of crab football - Parker should see the signs and work out it doesnt work and change the system and personnel for some that suits us better.
It categorically isnt Hartmans fault
I regularly watch La Liga and take special interest in RCDE for obvious reasons, Koleosho is not even getting off the bench and I fail to understand why he is at Espanyol other than to top his tan up.![]()
Denying a goalscoring opportunity, even with a little nip and a crafty opponent, was always going to be a red card. Elanga had poked the ball forward and Dubravka would have collected it, however, sadly, Pires was just right on Elanga's heels and he made the most of whatever contact there was. Modern game is totally screwed.
