Re: [LU] Burnley win?
I agree on Sacko's finish - at this level he should be aiming to go through the keeper's legs when they are spread like that. Only place he definitely can't make a save. I think it was 100% his intention. On 20 September 2017 at 10:14, Rob Heathwrote: > I am almost 100% in agreement with Rich.

[LU] Burnley
Like many I watched the game on a TV feed (thanks Rich W) and enjoyed itIt was a game that could have gone either way and so I suppose 2 2 is a fair reflection - a bit annoying since we had 'won' the game twice and then let them back in itI like Berardi and he is a real 8 out of 10 every game - a true professional - but he was stupid last night. When the ref has stopped them taking a corner due to pushing and pulling in the box you do not grab a player when the corner does eventually take place Then with seconds to go we give away a silly and needless free kick in a dangerous position, albeit that the lad took a great free kick Dyche once again proved that football people - players, managers, and 'experts' do not know the laws of the game ! Yes, it was a soft and stupid penalty to give away, there was no need to grab Roofe 'even for a millisecond when the ball was seven foot above his head with no chance of scoring' as Dyche put it. However he should be blaming his own player not the referee. A foul in the box (and pulling a shirt is a foul) it is a penalty - irrespective of the chances of the fouled player scoring. How often do we see a handball for no reason (eg Shaunessey v Bolton) where there is no danger, or a player going away from goal is tripped or pushed - it is a PENALTY - no ifs, buts or arguement. Why don't the reporters / interviewers pull the manager (in this case) up for his failure to understand the rules ? As for the game as others have said we took all five of our penalties brilliantly - top notch stuff. Not too sure about the new order (ABBA...) Players wise I was very pleased to see Sacko do so well - he made a massive difference. I understand the criticism and the 'sack o shit' remarks, but to me he has blistering pace and some skill / tricks. Yes his final ball can be lacking and too often there is no end product but I still love watching him. He reminds me of Darren Huckerby , in that he does not know himself what he is going to do so the opposition have no idea, and he makes things happen. I hope he did enough for TC to have him on the bench as an impact player (he is the 11th ? player to score for us so far - in 11 games Klitch shows that he will be a useful addition. Shaunessey was excellent again and is a real find. Despite a totally re-arranged and cobbled together back 5 - none of them will be in the first team in the postion they played last night- we only conceeded from a penalty and a free kick , nothing from open play (even if we did ride our luck a bit) I can see why scum let CBJ go on loan and why he struggled at Wolves. Cibicki and Grot were both very mixed. They did enough little bits to suggest they could be decent but were missing too often or messed it up too much to suggest they are ready for the first team Whatever it is another game to bring back the fans (Ipswich already sold out ?) - Just gutted that the next round will most likely be whilst I am on my holidays I know Rich has had a pop at TC using his subs but I like it - we can bring on 3 (or 4 in the end last night) so why not use them if it improves what is on the pitch ? OK we got caught out with being down to ten on Saturday but that is unusual and I like a manager who can react to what is happening on the pitch. I remember being infuriated by DoL on a number of occasions (2 nil down at sunderland being still fresh in my mind) when despite millions of pounds of talent on the bench and the game getting away from us, he just stood there and made no changes Dave ___ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: https://mailman.gn.apc.org/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org FLAME WARS 'R US
Re: [LU] Burnley win?
Agree. Completely different performances. We were somewhat disjointed when going forwards until Hernandez came on (whereupon he was magnificent) but we had Cibicki making his debut and his first ever match in English football and Grot making his full debut (and by all accounts he is a work in progress). Daft to be forming any judgments about either of those lads yet, but their presence meant we lacked fluidity / link up that we have with Saiz there. I thought Roofe was sparky, and Dallas as ever puts in a solid shift wherever he plays on the pitch. And as a real bonus Sacko suddenly looked like old Sacko - direct and running at full backs. We weren't outmuscled at all - Vieira really put himself about. Occasional misplaced passes, but he has had limited match time and he constantly wanted to be involved for 120 minutes. Other seemed more excited by Klich that I was but he did a job. Centre backs were the stars for me - Shaughnessy as a young lad who was a centre midfielder until this season and Ayling who just gets better and better wherever we play him. The only 'disappointment' if you want to call it that from last night was the goals we conceded - I really didn't see where Burnley would score last night. All huff and puff but no real creativity. Having got ahead (twice) we gave them silly ways back in to the game twice with a stupid foul by Berardi (immediately after the ref had warned other players for holding in the box so was obviously watching for it) and then unnecessary random panic play when we just needed to play the game out and a soft foul by Vieira to give them the free kick they scored. We'll learn from that though. Plus CBJ was obviously god awful.

Re: [LU] Burnley win?
I watched both Millwall and last night and they couldn't have been much different. Millwall was very poor stuff from us. Last night we competed well. Sure, they had more shots, which I imagine would make it look one-sided on the highlights, and on another day we could have been out of it way before the end, but we never looked that much in danger. When it was 2-1 to us, I commented that we just about deserved the win, but that a loss wouldn't have been unfair either. Given we were on the back of two poor performances, had 9 player changes, and were playing away, to a Premier League team, I don't think we could have expected any more than what we got last night.

I am almost 100% in agreement with Rich. I too did not see the M/wall match, but last night...well, yeah we didn't have the ball much, but remember it was our reserves vs 7th in the Prem (mostly reserves) so I thought we competed well.

Re: [LU] Burnley win?
Didn't see the Millwall match but listened on RL and it sounded like we pretty much second to the ball and second best all over the park and they had wave after wave of attack. This was not the case last night and whilst Burnley had the better of it I thought we competed well and never looked that troubled at the back. We didn't create much with Grot on his own and isolated, Roofe hugging the touchline and Cibicki poncing around like he owned the place but not actually doing anything. It definitely needed the introduction of Hernandes and Sacko to trouble them. Hernandes first touch was to bystep his man and play Sacko through. Yes he was lucky with his goal but his pace caused them all sorts of trouble and he skinned Charlie Taylor twice - I always thought Taylor was suspect when put on the back foot. I'd say overally, given the team selection / debuts etc it was a good performance.
