I would sell my own mother to a Ugandan death cult for a clean sheet on Saturday. Surely we will get at least one this season?
What a coincidence that Burnley’s new striker is 6’6 tall. Heaven help our defence and Bachmann if he’s in goal.
Entirely earnestly, without hyperbole, we're already sunk if this turns out to be the case for any period of games over the rest of the season, aren't we, to be fair - whether its the Jolly Green Giant or Jermaine Defoe reanimated that we're up against.
Apparently, Burnley's new striker, Weghorst, may not be allowed to play against us because of Covid rules. Toby Gilles @tobygilles Actually I’ve just checked. Unvaccinated people arriving in the UK must still quarantine for 10 days after arrival so we should be ok. If that’s the case and assuming he arrived yesterday he’ll miss #Watfordfc & #MUFC (assuming day 8 test is negative).
Good spot. So assuming Vydra will score against us even though he cant hit a cows @rse with a banjo these days, we gonna need 2 or 3 goals to win this one.
Sounds like he was here last week and will be training with their team from today. Table football keeper Bachmann is going to be hoarse from blaming all his team-mates for the inevitable goals conceded from his abysmal decision making and staying on his line.
We'll have Foster back vs Burnley. Kamara was beaten way too easily in the air vs Sargent though, I almost wonder whether this is one final game it's worth risking Masina for given that defensive headers is one thing he's actually decent at (when he's not ducking them).
Well I certainly hope Bachmann is NOT in goal against this giant, it has to be Foster who will at least take him on, or if the rumours about Henderson are right he will do nicely.
Keeper (any) Kiko Kamara Kabasele King Ekong Kucka Kayembe Ken Sema Kwadwo Baah King Kalu For a laugh.
It's just the teamn I'd play at Burnley. Seriously, if the transfer window mission was to get a team full of players whose name starts with K, then we've done A*. We also have Ngakia, Nkoulou, Kathcart, Kleverley, Kucho Hernandez. Should have signed Kepa.
Apparently we enquired about Kepa at 10:59, you can’t blame Gino for Chelsea being too slow to get the deal over the line, he did his best.
Yeah but you have to balance this with Masina allowing numerous crosses to come in from his side as he stands with his hands behind his back about 15 yards away from his winger...
Really can't wait to see if it will be Danny B hiding behind the goal line as they score from about three yards out or Big Ben daydreaming about making money from flogging cartoon apes then periodically rushing out for crosses he's got no hope of actually collecting. And of course, we've got the "which defender will make a catastrophic error leading to a goal this week?" sweepstake to keep us amused. I'm going for Cathcart, he's not made an absolute stinker yet this season so must be due one.
We’ve strengthened much better than Burnley in the transfer window. They simply have no goals in them and are already relegated. Easy win. Orns.
In absolute fairness, to give him his due, he has - he was just somehow miraculously saved from it being remembered by the sheer incompetence of the striker meaning he didn't score a free one-on-one against one of our keepers. I put the video on here a few weeks ago.
The goal we conceded away at Norwich was also due to him getting ridiculously caught out by a simple long ball to Pukki - also seemingly forgotten due to the fact we still won.
It's not exactly a clanger though, is it? He was caught out as he never checked his shoulder and didn't know where Pukki was. Same thing happens multiple times per game with all of our players (Sissoko, Kucka and Louza all particularly bad at this). He's at fault for that goal but it's not the same as diving in for an idiotic penalty, ducking a simple ball or watching a player run straight past him to head in unopposed at the far past as couldn't be bothered to run.
