That was coming for about 30 minutes. Kept dozily giving the ball away, strolling around, not bothered about Burnley getting more and more men forward and putting more and more pressure on us, and finally conceded. Sleepwalked into it, fully deserved for Burnley, just abject from a team which is supposed to know what to f*cking do when 1-0 up and trying to see a game out.
I repeat, it was coming for 30 fudging minutes - everyone could see it. No surprise when it did come. Game management worse than zero, and the sense of absolute complacency that pervaded the team at 1-0 up was utterly mystifying. And that extends to Poch - how the f*ck can you watch the team getting pushed back, losing ground, walking around with their heads in the sky as Burnley push and press, and do *nothing* apart from bringing on Sissoko and then Winks 1 minute before the goal? Credit to Dyche, he threw subs on good n'early - Poch sat there, unmoving, for 88 minutes and then threw his bottle in anger when we inevitably conceded after half the damn team fell asleep or were just too tired to care.
Just a woeful last 30 minutes all-round. Why bother trying so hard to score a goal if you're going to give one away like that at the end anyway.
F*ck off. F*cked up my weekend, this has. And as for Trippier - this is why he will *never* be as good as Walker. He is good in some areas - very good, maybe better than Walker. Crossing and passing, to be specific (although he was sh*te at both today). But when defending, he's like a f*cking traffic cone, and that puts him well behind Walker in the overall summing up.
