Burnley (H), 26/10/25, 1400 UTC - Build Up & Match Thread

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Well, we are tapping on the door..

 

[NicholasG1973]

I’d still sack VP after this.

It’s been shite.

 

[YoungWolf]

I’d be a bit embarrassed if I’m Burnley time wasting again a team of our quality. Why have they played for a point in this half

 

[jd1981]

Done nowhere near enough second half

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

What is our model?

Buy young players before they've got on the radar properly -> give them exposure at PL level -> sell at a large profit

Which sort of works if your ongoing recruitment is consistently good (as it has been at Bournemouth and Brighton to name two), which it isn't here.

You have to go back a very long way to find us buying players of the profile of Walker and Xhaka.

Yep. This just can't continue if we're too have any chance

Yeah they've surprised me last half an hour, they were creating chances pretty much at will

 

[The Saturday Boy]

He has to go.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Must also add it's a fantastic use of £20m on Fer Lopez. Rarely even comes on.

That's great if you're a good team and you can give him 12-18 months to settle in and grow. We are not a good team.

I agree largely.

But Arias, Dawson and Lemina don't fit with that, or Sarabia.

 

[AndyWolves]

I think that's us down and VP sacked

 

[Del Woppio]

fucking hell that is so wolvesy

 

[t3ch]

For FUCK SAKE

 

[Jack Regan]

And now we've lost. Bye Vitor.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

There we go.

Bye Vitor.

 

[YoungWolf]

Ah yeah been some positive signs this half. When are people going to get a grip

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Christ.

 

[NicholasG1973]

Have a pint on me on your way home, Vitor.

 

[Del Woppio]

That's an incredible save fair play

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

What a save.
