    Whereas Sunderland have a right go, get in front and work hard to stay in it, we try to stay in it, don’t and then we are looking to try to equalise. Time to change that policy, cos everyone has had their fill of it.
    Keep Broja fit, hopefully his injuries are behind him, and we have a proper striker.

    I think for broja he’s been obviously unlucky with injury but he scored 9-10 goals for Southampton in the Premiership on loan 3-4 years back and he’s still a young man who could become successful yet.

    We are sometimes judgemental on here and state he’s a donkey and why did we pay what we did.
    However reality says £20 million simply isn’t much money even if it seems a lot for us and a gamble but if he scored 10 goals for us this year not only would his value increase but we may survive and get the premiership money another year.

    Hopefully his goal will
    Instal confidence and Burnley will benefit - I hope that we can actually create chances for him otherwise the doom and gloomers on here will write him off and he’ll disappear in to the abyss.

    You have played the beautiful game army88, it's amazing how a bit of confidence can change a player's fortunes. He's bound to score against Everton.

    Certainly I had him down as a “donkey” based upon his two starts. Obviously, I was being harsh in making that judgment. If he could get some decent service, as he did from Edwards, then he could well put a few away.

    The trouble is that Cardy is not setting up the side to provide that service. Flemming, when he plays, is mostly between the half way line and their box, with no one in support to feed off him. When he does get into the box, the ball in either doesn’t appear and ends up back with Dubravka, or the cross is poor.

    The same was true of Broja until Edward’s go involved.

    That's me Army, I've seen enough of him to make a judgement, he's a player I've taken an interest in since he appeared on the scene at Chelsea, must be 5/6 years ago now, so it's not a judgement I've made on scant evidence. His scoring record is abysmal, just nine PL goals in 87 appearances for Chelsea, Southampton, Fulham, Everton and Burnley.

    One headed goal against Bournemouth doesn't turn him into a thoroughbred and in horse-racing terms I wouldn't back him to win a seller at Catterick, never mind the Epsom Derby. If he does disappear into the abyss it will be because he isn't good enough and hasn't scored enough goals. It will be nowt to do with anything the doomers and gloomers on here write or say about him.

    Incidentally army, Aldi have a Chablis Premier Cru for 14.99, it's a belter, I'm going back for some more tomorrow, I'd happily pay a tenner more for it.

    I still don’t rate him, though his goal yesterday was welcome. If Chelsea saw something in him, why did they sell him to us ?

    After he scored, his joy and enthusiasm was plain for all to see. He will do for me.

    I hope he proves me and everyone else wrong, too.
    It?s going to take a huge effort and a big upturn in form for that to happen. I don?t see it happening.

    Worrall has to start alongside Esteve against Everton who has lacked an experienced Centre half playing alongside him. Everton will batter us on set pieces were we are weak, lets hope Worrall gives us some grit that Ekdal lacks.

    Anthony must be droped the lad is presently a liability and I would look at giving Edwards and Broja a start, as we need some creativity or just hang up the white flag, surrender and settle for lower league football, with a championship manager

    Last chance saloon for Parker, if he doesn't deliver against these and the Mags he's a gonna for me. He wouldn't have a job by now if he managed anyother Premier League side, so what makes Burnley any different?
