I’m not sure I follow - Burn played LB for most of that game didn’t he?! 

 

17 minutes and the match was 1-0 to us when he moved to CB.

Wasn’t the whole criticism of Howe that he didn’t put Burn at CB? He kept Livra at RB, put Krafth at CB (and we conceded immediately) Burn at LB and only changed it when Livra got injured.

When you’re conceding 3 goals per game, something is badly wrong. We’re weaker at RB, the keeper is the same, one of the CBs is the same. What else has changed?

 

Burn has been much better at LCB in this short stint than Botman had been since his return from the injury. That's honestly the main change for these couple of games.

No, some people were criticizing Howe for not putting Krafth at CB (??). Tino LB, Burn LCB, Schär RCB, Krafth RB was the backline after the Lascelles injury.

 

Are you commenting on a match you didn't see? :lol:

Also we've had legs to bring off the bench (Anderson, Barnes etc) which takes pressure off the defence.

Oh, is that what it is?! I thought you had something wrong with you pal. My apologies.

Laughing at people after you put forward shit opinions with no factual or statistical basis doesn’t paint you in a very good light. It just makes you look like an arsehole. Have a bit more humility and you might get taken more seriously.

Have no idea what's going on here. Have a nice night!

No coincidence we've looked moved solid since he moved to CB. Of course it helps he already has an understanding with Schar after the half season in the trenches together.

I realise now why this guy is a wrong-un. He wears the captain's armband on his right sleeve.

Aye but he wears his Geordie heart on the other one.

Is it not like the watch thing where it's that you wear it on your weaker arm?

Fair play to him, he was shit at CB the times he'd played there early this season but seems much improved at the moment.

So much better at centre-back. Hopefully never see him at left-back again and he can keep this up for the next 6-9 months.

Not too concerned with Botman's injury. DB to play there, make it his own and Botman having to oust him. He should never play at LB ever again, there's no need or excuses for it. He's a CB, and a really good one at that. We need a long term partner for Botman to replace Schar. That should be the focus, and if Howe still isn't keen on Hall at LB, then a new LB is priority.
