    What is our awful goalkeeper doing 2 yards behind his line for that corner?

    Good performance from most. Sarr was absolutely dreadful tonight though. Love our new centre backs. Fantastic not to see Cathcart and Kabasele for first time in years.

    Feel so sorry for Hamster.

    Was everywhere.

    Glad to see Burnley have been transformed into an honest,free flowing team.

    Freddie,I give up.

    Great effort, horrible Burnley side.
    Didn't we just know we'd throw it in the last minute.!!!
    We're growing slowly, but hey how Slow is Martins..!
    That's got to be the start of our improvement, take the anger from that and move on....
    Gutted but proud (apart from first 20 minutes as usual).

    Has to be said, that was a great resolute performance, bit more experience and we'd have sealed the three points.

    A lot to like about that performance, we can build on that into a good playoff run.

    Late equaliser conceded or not, this was a massive result. Make no mistake, Sheff Utd will be worried.

    We. Are. Back.

    Against one of the beat teams the Championship will see for a long while, 4 points isn't bad.

    But a last gasp goal conceded is always painful. Pedro off for Kabasele is a criminal substitution.

    Taking away the massive massive disappointment, another decent performance against a good side, and a decent result. Good signs.

    But **** me, that's annoying.

    Martins was trying to be slow to attract the foul.

    And was fouled before that corner but Burnley Fan Ref wasn't giving us anything.

    You just have to laugh. Couldn't be more predictable.

    Standard position for him. But defending in that moment was poor all over - essentially no Watford defender at the back post from a corner. Though arguably sorting that out is the keeper’s job too.

    Several teams below us who are within (less than) three points of us have two games in hand. Absolutely brilliant, in the end. Another non-win snatched from the jaws of victory. Fantastique. Bachmann needs to go the shadow realm, and am I mistaken or was it the master himself, Kabasele, who helped craft that last minute equaliser for them?

    This is what feels like the millionth time where Kabasele is subbed on in the dying minutes of a game and we concede… How the **** is that still going on…

    So close to the win .

    Would have taken a point but very frustrating to let it slip late on .

    Bilic’s subs cost us the win unfortunately.

    Choudhry was superb tonight and if he’s going to play like that consistently, £6/7m (can’t remember exactly what the option we have is) is a steal.

    Ashley Barnes is still a massive pr1ck.

    Oh, and is it too early to say I haven’t seen much at all from Araujo?

    Yes and why were 5 of our players jumping for the same ball and zero cover at the back post.!

    I've not partaken in any Sarr-bashing to date, but what a complete and utter waste of a shirt tonight!!!

    Why the actual fcuk would Bilic take Pedro off and leave Sarr on???

    Also, to add to my previous post, Burnley have been a very good watch this season but I was disappointed with them tonight. Resorted to the dark arts very early on and seemed intent on getting one of our players sent off or conning the referee.

    Ashley Barnes should be given a yellow just for walking on a pitch, I have always hated that cheating, dirty pr1ck. Good on Hoedt for making him look a muppet.

    Pedro had just been booked. I think it was the right call to take him off but can’t see the point in bringing on Krapasele.

    That Hoedt / Barnes spat was embarrasing all round.

    Yes, agreed. Barnes certainly started it but Hoedt was all too quick to take the bait.

    Why are we so mentally weak? I don't remember a Watford team that I literally have no confidence in even when we are leading in the last minute. I expect them to concede because I genuinely believe the players have zero confidence and will crumble under pressure.

    Pedro is coming back from injury and was on a yellow card.

    Barnes has little to offer so he gave a prickish performance which I thought was a discrace....

    Good battling performance overall, but how Sarr can walk off the pitch and look a player like Choudhury in the eye after seeing the comparative shifts they put in without feeling absolutely ashamed? What has happened to him, he can't even just carry a ball forward into space anymore, it's nuts? What do people think is actually wrong with him?

    Sarr, what an absolutely disgraceful performance, complete lack of effort, embarrassment
