Player Ratings And Reviews: Burnley home

samedi 29 avril 2017

Typical palace, we like to do it the hard way, feel a bit let down by the players today, it was imo the worst performance of the season, we had no midfield and it was a defensive horror show, we got owned by a side that hadnt won away all season, if Swansea win tomorrow then I feel staying up is nearly 50:50

Im not giving ratings but no-one deserved more than a 4


Hennessey- I think of him like I would when you have no goalkeeper left and you put a defender in goal, you basically keep the ball away from him because you know he might **** up a shot, the 3 attempts at saving the goals (inc the disallowed) reminded my the butterfield hatrick, just very amateur and clumbersome, he is the sort of weak link that gets you relegated and if we do go down it will be alot because of him imo
PVA - did ok defensively, thought he offered very little going forward, had a decent chance and skied his shot.
Delaney- absolutely finsihed and he knows it, he cant run, he cant jump, a horror show today, everytime the ball gets near him he just backs off and runs back to our area which means we are too stretched in midfield, we will struggle to get another point with him playing, seems a sulky bastard as well.
Kelly - Did better than Delaney but his lack or aerial power showed up tonight, imo just not commanding enough to be anything more than a backup.
Ward - To be fair to Ward he can defend and is ok in a backs to wall job but can offer anything more, how this guy can train everyday nearly for so many years and be so utterly diabolical on the ball astounds me, passes out of play multiple times every game, never seems on the same wavelength as the winger, when they want it short he punts it long and visa versa, it was his him that started the attack for their 2nd by heading it straight out of play.
McArthur - barely noticed he was playing tbh, fitness levels are terrible, expect more from him
Luka - Have a mare, gave away the ball in the leadup to the 2 goals and missed a sitter.
Puncheon- another nothing performance from him, too many this season, I know he is captain but im not sure why exactly he brings to the side, looks like going through the whole season without scoring which is quite an achievement.
Wilf - Tried his heart out, our only hope today tbh, I do agree with Graham Poll though in that he goes down too many times and the ref doesnt trust him, he needs to gets the refs onside, and I know he gets fouled alot but he also goes down under alot of fair challenges too.
Andros, another tryer but not his day, like to see him get a shot off or two
Benteke - lazy and static today, dont think Big Sam was that impressed either, against a packed defence you arent going to be able to stay still and get a free header, he needs to move more, get accross the near post for example.
Sam Allardyce- bad day at the office, looked very Pardew poor tactics, poor subs, dont understand why benteke went off, why not play Remy alongside him?

few points

Defending deep- If you are struggling to deal with the long ball the last thing you do is back off into our area where the knockdowns are dangerous we needed to shut them down higher up the pitch

Shooting, Why is our medium and long range shooting so bad compared to other sides? it always seems to be blasted high and wide, at home with teams defending deep it might be the best chance you have, we always looks so amateur in this regard

Long ball - Not a great idea to have 3 vs 2 in midfield and then bypass it, If you are playing long ball vs longball then the odds are in their favour with 2 upfront, If you are tired surely you try and keep the ball and run their legs a bit like teams do to us

Tiredness- I personally felt Sam has gone about this too much in the build up and maybe put a doubt in the players mind
