Burnley (A) 21/12 Build-Up & Match Thread

I’m surprised he hasn’t signed the deal. Clearly been offered to him.

 

[Freddeno]

He’s not very good - lots of speed, but no instinct.

Sorry, what you just said?

Yes, cleary was left on the bench for some time so can understand that

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

He needs to find his way back to that awesome form last season. If that was just a purple patch not to be repeated it would be a disappointment.

 

[Premier Quality]

Fucks sake, why does every conversation turn into an Adama debate?

 

[prawnking]

IT'S PAUL'S FAULT

 

[Tredman]

It’s *always* Adama’s fault.

 

[Jabbawolf]

Sorry, what you just said?

Exactly those words.

It’s an interesting point. Maybe because we have all seen glimpses of a player with a potential to be both world class and infinitely frustrating over his time with us.

Agree completely - my frustration is that that situation hasn’t changed recently, but still gets debated on almost every single thread, with the same points being made.

When people suggest he plays up front it's fair to debate it surely?

It has - the player of last season has morphed back into the player of the season before.

 

[Freddeno]

Still not clearly enough by a long way to sell him...I would if a monstrous bid comes in from Barca or Real but not otherwise..without him we have one less option to create and that is just what we lack..

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Barca or Real

I mean I'd probably leave my current home if the New York Times asked me to be their chief sports writer, but I don't think that's going to happen any time soon.

No ingrained opinions about Adama on this thread... No siree!

It’s got nothing to do with being ingrained - he was poor in 18/19, excellent in 19/20, average so far this season - credit where it’s due, same with criticism.

They must be banging down the door with his current assists and goal scoring stats.

What's impressed you about Adama this season?

 

[Kenny]

What's impressed you about Adama this season?

The way he has baffled every single comms team when they see his arms being greased up


anyway back to the game. Who will we hear more from during the game? Coady leading or Dyche moaning about fucking everything

 

[prawnking]

credit where it’s due, same with criticism.

Unless anyone is criticising Semedo or Nuno or our methods of attack or just about anything Wolves related...

I don't even want to talk about Adama, I don't think he's the story of this season so far, but it's noticeable how much he scratches a lot of people's scapegoat itch.

He's fine on the bench for me at the moment, hence him not being in my starting team in this Burnley build up thread
