The College Dropout Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 2 minutes ago, La Parka said: True. Maybe I'm being too harsh. It probably doesn't help that Schar is regressing every day. Him, Pope and Livra in the backline reduces our ability to play out from the back a lot and it's a nervy group. Having Sven, Hall & Dubs in there lifted the composure we had as a team in general play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaj Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Burn has had a good season but I said months ago that he should be dropped for Botman as soon as possible despite his performances this season (obviously not a possibility now). He does a lot of good last ditch defending, top defenders don't do that as much because they don't get into those positions as much in the first place. His lack of pace, mobility and passing ability exposes him and then requires him to do some last ditch defending. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andycap Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 What's our plan on set pieces? Because hoisting a ball to burn isn't working he can't direct the header very well he can't score it seems from them either, maybe we should use him as a decoy to drag players away and target someone else.

Lush Vlad Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 I sometimes wish he would be a bit more Chris Samba with his defending. As he is a very good defender, reads it well, quality in the air, positionally he is good from crosses and a whole load more. But when he tries to play a bit or make cute interceptions that aren't really on, he gets found wanting and often makes a mistake getting caught out of position and then struggling to get back. It's hard to criticise the high pressing from him, as well as Schar to a lesser degree. As they are obviously instructed to follow their man in such a way. But even against a shit West Ham team, it caused us issues at times and the lack of mobility and cover in our back 4 is starting to get exposed regularly when teams go direct and bypass our press altogether.

gbandit Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Find it hard to ever criticise this lad when he plays CB. He does so much for us and is our most committed player game after game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 (edited) Been brilliant defensively all season. Fair play to Tuchel for actually paying attention and not just going with the typical names. Tuchel usually goes with three at the back, and not sure he could do much better than Burn as the left sided centre back in a three.
