@TheBurnleyWay Out of shape

[James Boardwell @jamesb]

@rushy_sport I think Ekdal is decent. He's astute. Unsure about Anel and Igor can look iffy when playing out the back. JBL on the left for me. And maybe I'd try 4-4-2 with Amdouni in advanced 10 and vardy 9.

@TheBurnleyWay Feel more confident

[James Boardwell @jamesb]

@BurnleyOfficial I didn't see any of the players speaking positively about him and I honestly couldn't see the system he was trying to play. It was a mess.

[James Boardwell @jamesb]

@HayensHairline It's such a shame. He looked good earlier in the season playing more centrally but I guess that 10 role has a lot of competition and maybe lacks the engine to press?

@BurnleyOfficial Happy birthday jaydon 🍰🎂

[James Boardwell @jamesb]

@BurnleyOfficial Hjalmer is as good a centre half as any in the championship. Calm, great awareness, tactically smart, decent passer and stronger than he appears. Do not understand why he's mainly a sub.

[James Boardwell @jamesb]

@BurnleyOfficial Happy birthday captain Roberts 🫡🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[James Boardwell @jamesb]

@matt_scrafton 100% - the one that got away. I would have loved Bellamy at Burnley.

[James Boardwell @jamesb]

@TurfCastPodcast I can't imagine there are many managers with pedigree wanting the job. And if you look to the European leagues and an up-and-coming manager (like Hayen?) you're playing the lottery again.

Back to Conor's point: we need to instill a core of players who want to fight.

[James Boardwell @jamesb]

@robmcthai @Chris_Wilson6 He's naturally a right winger? Vardy isn't fully fit. I suspect we'll see vardy tho, as you'd hope the balls in/over from JBL and Edwards would be ideal.

[James Boardwell @jamesb]

@TurfCastPodcast Against derby I wouldn't want Alleyne there. I'd play a back 3 with Alleyne, Julio and Ahmedhozic. Pires on left and one of Walker / Roberts / Sonne on right as wing backs. Vardy as sub. Ramazani on right, JBL on left.

[James Boardwell @jamesb]

@BurnleyOfficial Back 3/5? Or is Alleyne in midfield? Roberts - as much as I love him - has no left foot. Pires has his defensive lapses but he's a a good attacking full back with a left foot!

[James Boardwell @jamesb]

@BurnleyOfficial Love Amdouni #11 ❤️

[James Boardwell @jamesb]

@TheBurnleyWay It takes time for a new team to gel but there are some basic things that were not doing well. Also, under parker and Kompany at half time they did drills - now it's just a kick about and I think that's symbolic of the lack of professionalism

[James Boardwell @jamesb]

@TheBurnleyWay 100% agree. Its hard to understand the system but beyond that our movement has been poor, and no triangles and short passes on. Strange.

[James Boardwell @jamesb]

@tombogert Wish him well and hope his mental health recovers. In patches during the 2 seasons w Kompany he looked a real threat. Go well Lyle!

[James Boardwell @jamesb]

@IpswichTown You've got a player who will get you goals. His work rate, physicality and attitude is spot on and makes up for his lack of pace. Good luck Zian!

[James Boardwell @jamesb]

@BurnleyOfficial Love this one 👏👏

[James Boardwell @jamesb]

@TheFLZone He's a quality player especially in a more advanced midfield role - pressing higher up. I thought he'd be ideal there for Hayden.
