David Edgar Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Prediction for the future of this thread. People will point out valid concerns with mistakes Howe keeps making. People will call out anyone who raises valid concerns as being bed wetters or whatever. Circle of life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weezertron Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 It should really be as easy as 'Does their winger have good pace?' then don't start Burn. We all love Burn, but the fact is he's slow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 I totally agree Howe has got this wrong this Burn. I'm just not having a world were the forum knackers feel empowered. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all love Burn, but the fact is he's slow. In fairness other than against Bailey, Burn generally does well against fast players. There's been plenty times people have said things like "Saka will rinse Burn" but it's never happened. Luton are playing with a front 3 and Ogbene as wingback though and he's isolated him 1v1 and absolutely roasted him all game, Howe should have taken him off after 10 minutes.

The reason it often doesn't happen is that the pacey winger is doubled up on by Joelinton or Gordon. It's been rare historically that Burn has been allowed to be isolated 1v1.

Turnbull2000 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 I'm desperate for Howe to stay with us, but fuck me, persisting with certain players when they're getting massacred on the pitch is troubling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point but not sure why you'd risk a shit start to a game, given we have a fast talented fullback on the bench who has already proven himself. Shit, I only just remembered that 'dont change the back four' rule. haha. Nevermind Edited February 3 by Weezertron Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of wonder why Livra lost his place though? He barely had a bad game. It seems like Livra is held to a way higher standard than Burn for some reason, because Burn can drop stinkers without losing his place while Livra has to be a world beater to keep it. Maybe it's tactical? I just feel like it doesn't really send the right message. Right now they are not really competing for the spot, because Burn will play nomatter what.

Holmesy Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 People need to not get their knickers in a twist at the criticism he will rightly come in for after this game, even if we win it. Burn has been a problem for most of this season, culminating in a fucking shambles today. Eddie needs to get ruthless and stop picking his favourites. Burn is not good enough for the type is football we want to play Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because we've not been in a great moment and we need experienced calm heads? Or is it because our manager is a knacker? Honestly the ridiculous flip-flopping of some on this forum makes me wonder if Lithium might be beneficial? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Livramento has been way more consistent overall, so why is it then that Burn keeps the spot regardless of his overall performances compared to Livra?

nufc123 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Deserved all the praise after Villa. Really poor today. Got to take a lot of the blame. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
matta Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Will so many performances like this make the owners think twice? Just asking, not wanting Howe out. But imagine if Bruce produced something like this.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 After so much good work against Villa, resulting in an excellent performance and result, he had a bad day at the office today. Too much space in behind the midfield and persisted with Burn for far too long. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 He made the right change, just too late. Same happened against Villa but we got away with it that time; we barely did here. Hopefully he addresses that very glaring issue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
catlover24 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Expect the usual “I’ve rewatched the game five times” next week and then still putting Burn in the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
