Armando Broja on the bench for Burnley. He’s scored one goal in all competitions since his loan to us five years ago. He cost £20m.

He was electric for us. I haven't seen a player like him for a long while. Height, pace, guile, finishing, tenacity. He could've been incredible.

He scored 6 goals in 32 games. Let’s not get carried away here.

Bit OTT but I do recall him looking very good in his debut as sub against Wham. They were battering us and then AB came on and nearly won it, hit the post after racing past his man from deep. Had a purple patch of goalscoring later that season then went quiet. Did the square root of fuck all back at Chelsea before that bad injury and never been the same since, and never will.

Yeah but he was 20 years old. He was very impressive for his age.

Burnley and Wolves both look horrendous

Is Bet Tom the Lancashire version of Betfred?

[Pamplemousse]

Burnley crowd getting toxic, a bit like us last year before we sacked Will Still!

 

Their manager won't last, can't believe someone who was managing Haverfordwest a few years ago is out of his depth...

What about his ceiling though?!

Shocker of a start for Burnley really, 8 points from 11 games and only 1 win. Surely auto chances gone already. I guess with play offs going down to 8th place now you can't totally rule them out of that yet but will need quite a turnaround.

My main takeaway from that is that Wolves really don’t look that good. Really lucky to win that, gifted 2 goals.

Yep, and also that Burnley are worse, when people thought they might be turning things around

Some on here thought he was the next best thing. 😂

Think I said it in the predictions thread that Wolves will come unstuck and stutter

They'll have Armstrong back soon
