But our 2023 points are 79 and it would make us 4th. Unless I’m being dumb.

Could be referring to the Match thread. Take your pick there.

Erdington lad.

can’t decide whether he would make a great stopper or a centre forward to terrorize defenders

well done Leon!

I've heard about him on social media but had no idea he was so close to home. Another "celebrity" to add to the list.

Well we made that harder than it needed to be.

A couple of injuries and a couple of players below par but we got the result.

Still an amazing effort from the team

Love Konsa, quite often under pressure he just sorts shit out calmly and gets on with it. I'd say world class right back, Konsa and Torres as a pair and Moreno, then we're really looking good.

Seems without Kamara, we don't get the best of McGinn or Luiz. Something needs to click with Ramsey, some others were hot and cold. 

Three points though which after the last two games were well needed. 42 points at half way, if we get close to 84 for the season it's way, way better than expected.

Reflecting on the game and especially the penalty incident, I wonder why JJ was so angry. Did one of the Burnley players say something overly critical to Aaron? I say this because whilst booking JJ it seemed like Aaron was trying to plead in his defence. Why else was JJ making the "shush" gesture to one of the Burnley player's? I may be way off here, but you never know.

He's way too good a centre- half to be wasted at right - back. I love how he comes out of seemingly ugly entanglements with such poise and nine times out of 10 with the ball at his feet, or maybe that should be 9 and a half times.

First time on public transport for over 10 years, excellent 3 points, could have been 5 or 6 in the end. Didn't have great view on the pen but we needed it.

I'd have had to have a break from VT if we drew, its bad enough when we win.

We look knackered but 2 weeks league break will help. Bring on the geordies. 

[Rugeley Villa]

We needed that, like really needed it. Good game , bit too much up and down but we won .

It was at half time.  He was born in Jamaica but grew up in Aston.

We got Everton next in the League.

Yeah I know that's away, I'm a homer. A month til the next one, I need the break too

[MakemineVanilla]

I can't decide whether Luiz meant to hit the bar with the penalty - I kind of hope that he did.

[Derryvillan]

We're game of the day on Sky at the moment if anyone hasn't seen it.

In a parallel universe he did, and it bounced out. I think he was trying to say to us that it could go either way. He is the chaos fox. 

[Villatillidie95]

not a vintage performance and those misses by diaby and ramsey almost cost us but delighted with the 3 points. Everton away is gonna be tough and theyve lost the last 3 in the prem and in the league cup before that too, their fans will make a fortress out of goodison so we need to be focused all game. We go again shortly!
