Dreadful game but we at least tried to find a way through, Burnley offered absolutely nothing.
It opens the gap to two points at least.
Take the point and move on.

Another clean sheet for Illan

We could put their keeper and 2 centre backs on our shopping list if we get promoted and they don’t

Re: Burnley v Leeds Utd Match Thread
They have only conceded 9 goals for a reason. Not sure why people expect Joseph to do something brilliant when he comes on. Piroe hardly got a sniff, neither did Solomon.
They are very strong defensively and very well organised.

True. Who'd have thought Hull would go to Bramall lane and beat blunts 3-0

Re: Burnley v Leeds Utd Match Thread
I'd of took a point at the start so happy.
Nullified our attack quite easily, we nullified theirs.... Good point but really highlights weaknesses in our side that don't give us that extra 5% to make differences in games like this.
Piroe I think is an excellent finisher but too slow against a decent defence. Doesn't fit the system, more of a shadow striker making late runs like he did at Swansea. Looked off it by a country mile tonight.... Passing and hold up play none existent.
Byrams right footedness limits natural passing on the left and over hit balls to Solomon really limits him. Would like to see what Schmidt can do but Farke sees him day in day out so there must be something limiting his game time.
Aarronsson think fits the side but not against sides who sit back, excellent counter running and harrying of the defence but hasn't got the creativity needed for a no10.
Competitive without being convincing but in a great position. Feel like a quality striker and 10 would add that extra few points to get us over the line this year.

Because we were trying walk it in, even though they were crowding the box. Gnonto and Firpo could've brought more attack from the bench.

Bogle got a push is the back as he was about to pull the trigger. I think their keeper had inly one save to make from James and Illan had nothing to do all night... only the block from Anthony which was called back for a foul.

Re: Burnley v Leeds Utd Match Thread
Is that the first game Gnonto hasn't played in this season?
