Chelsea is obviously good but Burnley may be the worst defensive professional team I've seen play in quite a long time.

Its the league favorites vs the team with the greatest odds in a long time to go back down.

Nah on the replay he basically jumped over him and reached his back leg down to catch the keeper on purpose


I just saw the replay.

Yeah I agree with you (and disagree with "the pundit") . . . Costa's leg is fully extended in a unnatural way for anyone other than a figure skater to make sure he touches the GKs arm.

I can see why.

I knew they just came up and seem to have a lot of guys with touches like a bag of bricks but I was kind of surprised that they didn't put much effort into defending.

Their basic shape and even hustle to close down seemed like a testimonial match.

They look like they're going to get lagers at the half.

Burnley isn't any worse than QPR's sorry arse and probably Soton as the season goes on.

If you think Southampton is going down you are delusional.

QPR is 50/50 they are willing to spend money on players and their roster is decent esp compared to Burnley's

Burnley, possibly QPR and who else in your mind? Palace is definitely going down. Just curious.
