Even if those are the only two goals he's scored for Fulham it shows he's got a lot of balls and talent. Nice. Big step the prem though.

I think he breaks up play more than Westwood in his role and Westwood appears to have a better range of passing. I agree though hope we leave him.

If we have The Rock in CDM alongside Westwood and we perhaps get in a CAM do we need Delph? Use Delph money and leave Cleverley at United, bring in an attacking mid and a Winger? Leaves our midfield potentially a bit shallow though unfortunately.

Wages too high surely? Or do you want a chunk of that 8 mill (instead go getting Cleverley on a permanent) spent on that? Not seen Sinclair play for a while tbh.

Needs to sit out a couple games at least.

He gets chances because of his position. Means nothing without execution!

Agreed. Townsend cuts inside all the time and is massively overrated just cos he plays for Spurs, has loads of pace and scored a couple of screamers.

Confidence is shot. Its almost like he's trying to hard, can't believe I'm saying its a bad thing but he literally shit s the bed every time. Would probably be better for everyone if he moved on.

I think they're trying to say he's better than all our players, some by a mile, and by that reasoning is "too good for us". He would be the same level as players at another club.

Agreed. He is a limited player but can be utilized effectively.

Okore. Maybe missed Westwood in midfield? Liking that performance. Feeling a bit sorry for Bacuna for Benteke biting his head off at the end.

No way a red. Both in "the wrong" if you can call it that.

Agree with this! I reckon he's off though! Lots of rumors circulating him and he's a quality player he'll wanna try himself at a club higher up the table. Bit gutted really cos he's looked great for us - diamond in the rough n all that.

Richardson may well have cost us three points but anything can happen in derby games we know that. Who knows what would have happened. One thing for sure is that we would have been better with 11 men.

Watching that pass for Clark's header again on MOTD. Absolute PORN that ball. Played great threading the ball to Benteke too. Really hope he's not out for too long!

One thing about Grealish: why does he give the ball to a team-mate a couple yards away when he could just continue with the ball himself? I've seen him do it several times now. The obvious answer is that he is so young and lets the senior player make the decisions. But is it really so, I don't know. He may just need more games and feel part of the first team, be one of them instead of a fill-in? I noticed that, probably because they are in a little more space and a better angle/position to pass from. Instead of attempting to take a player on and getting stuck in possession he just taps it across. That was my theory anyway because other times he played the ball himself, especially as the game went on he seemed to get more confident.

Get in. Well **** happy with that! Shame about Westwood. Great to see Grealish looking so confident. Almost set Benteke up for a goal as well! Just much better football today and fully deserved that win.

id rather see Benteke go and we re invest the money rather than him stay and be surrounded by shite

He's actually Belgian

Thank ****. Benteke was hardly outstanding but that finish was EFFING BRILLIANT. Just imagine if we had service. Dont care just happy we won.

Agreed. Played well, strung passes together. Final third i didn't think we were too great, we let Burnley assemble and then we had a brick wall to get through. Crosses were good. **** up once and it cost us a Pen and then a goal. Then after that we shit the bed and Burnley played well to maintain pressure. Played a damn sight better than what we have been previously, and anyone who says otherwise needs to take a step back and rethink. Having said that - us playing well, really, is just us doing the basics and not **** up. Will be extremely happy to see Benteke on the pitch.

"Why always us?"

**** BRILLIANT.

Unbelievable.

Great to see Grealish on! Good to see Cole play well too.
