Yeh we’re getting bummed in the middle of the pitch, nobody winning second balls or able to put their foot on the ball.

[honky cat]

Traore the fucking state of it, looks like hes shat his nappy. A giant walking arse.

[Tomshardware]

Kante and Magassa are a car crash in midfield. Two truly awful footballers.

Just like you said about Summerville?

[Pedro.]

Need taty and Summerville in and go to a back 4.
 

[Mike Oxsaw]

Difficult to see which team is in the higher division at the moment.

Looks like a team that’s never played together before. I suppose what you’d expect.
very rusty, inaccurate passing (bad pitch?) 

I suppose what you’d expect. 

not really what you'd expect at all from highly paid professionals. you missed out, shit formation

 

 

Is this burtons first team? I’d expect a team thats well drilled and played together for a while will cause trouble for a random set of players with very few minutes together. Even if the divisions are quite different. Individual skill might get us through this. But that’s about it.

Agree with your view here. Looks like this is the first time they have played together.

What concerns me most so far is the incredible low passing quality, maybe especially by Kante and Traore. But the rest is t.much better.

If this continues, I would sub Maters for Orford or Potts, and just start lumping it forward for a lucky hit

[Chip Shop Charlie]

Few players having absolute stinkers.
passing and control has abysmal.

Possibly why they don't normally make the bench?

[Come On You Irons]

This is going exactly as I expected. Select an awful team, expect an awful performance.

[cup of tea]

Falling asleep watching this dross already. Carry on like the first 20 mins and there is only one team winning here

[zico]

Getting totally outplayed at the moment.

[Mr Anon]

Why 'rest' Disasi? He's only played two games this season? 

 

 

do you want to take any added risk on having to rely on Kilman rest of the season?

[goose]

Kilman is a fucking car crash, every time the ball goes near him things just goes wrong.
Even simple passes and first touches.

Scarles looks very shaky first 5.

[honky cat]

Ag Ag Ag

[Come On You Irons]

Haha, the protest plane had the exclamation mark upside down. How embarrassing.

[fraser]

The ones moaning about lineup would have been the same ones moaning about starting strong and risking the league

Well that's bollocks for one. Personally I would rather win the Cup this season and suffer relegation than get knocked out by Burton and finish 17th.

I'd also prefer that, but let's see how we do first. 

[honky cat]

Cant complain about that line up, nice touch giving Mavvers the captaincy. We have plenty on the bench if needed. 

Just finished a top full irish brekky, looking forward to the match. 

SHE WORE, SHE WORE, SHE WORE A CLARET RIBBON . . . .

[Mad Ferret]

No Potts
