Ha. That looks just like my comment in the Wake up thread.
Brady has his confidence rising atm. Dyche for me got the man of the match. Personnall, for me, he is like a salesman.. just repeats things until others say it. His changes yesterday were both brave and risky... at least he went for it! I feel sorry for Vokes, the cart horse works hard with little credit.
Surprise of the day Scotty Arfield.. the wee man played a blinder!! he actually attacked players and showed great skill
I only saw the first half, so I couldn't possibly comment.

I only saw MOTD highlights but I might comment, though couldn't score. Will try to see it on Sky PL channel.
I'm not sure what the scales actually mean but the relative scores perhaps do allow comparisons within each assessment.
The top score or Clarets MoM is also interesting. The fact no one agrees and BBC had Tarks the MoM of the whole game suggests a lot of players impressed different people.
So or MoM was either Tom twice, Brady, Tarks or Wood twice.
These folk are supposed experts and they range of players scored average by some and top by others means so our individual opinion is probably worth just as much as theirs.
Tom made three great saves on MOTD, Wood look menacing, but if he's only one on for 40 mins can he get a 90 score? Brady played some good crosses got an assist and made some good shots, whilst Defour didn't appear much apart from a goal saving goal line clearance. Tarks made some goal saving tackles in our 10 min slot?
While it seems assists are counted for players, does anyone count goal saving tackles?

the fence needs spraying before autumn sets in-
Missed the match on stream so will catch up on Clarets Player.
I didn't go because I hate the hassle and expense of Wembley but Brady, Heaton and Tarkowski had blinders whilst I was watching a live feed at the next door neighbour's house. He thought Wood, Ward and Brady (again) were a different class!![]()
