Good point in the end. That was a really tough second half. We looked leggy and Burnley were full of running, putting us under some intense pressure at times. Hope Webster is ok.
There's something very pleasing about scoring against Burnley from a corner but my goodness games against them are horrible, dull, bitty, scrappy affairs. Still if the score stays the same I'll be delighted come full time.
I think this is the first time I've ever been excited about a game against Burnley. Usually they're something to be endured but I'm really looking forward to this.
Four clean sheets in a row and ten points in those four games up against the lowest scorers in the division. It all points to...
It's not great but it's better than I feared. He'll be back for the start of next season if all goes well. I was worried he'd be out until 2022.
In the mean time it's a golden opportunity for Karbownik and Burn.
I had a shocker with my picks against Liverpool. Can't lie it's knocked my predictive confidence and I'm struggling again today...

Come on Graham, get me back up the table!
I hope you're right. The wins against Spurs and Liverpool have left us wth an unexpected decent amount of breathing room from the relegation zone.
I don't think Leicester will be putting out too strong a team as they really should prioritise the league, they're still in the title race just...
What an outstanding result to wake up to.
Fair play to Potter, he's found his formula and now we're flying. Three wins, a draw and four consecutive clean sheets in the last four games. Magnificent.
I can't wait to watch the replay later on today.
I'm going all change in midfield and up top. I' assuming we're looking at Burnley as a game where we have a really good chance of three points whereas Liverpool it's an outside chance to get anything. So with that in mind:
Sanchez
White
Webster
Dunk
Burn
Bissouma
Propper
Alzate
Lallana...

30 MINUTES LEFT!
Once again we enter the final 30 minutes of a match up with the combatants locked together. This time it could not be closer as with just half an hour to go the beasts are tied 76-76.
If you haven't voted, vote now! There's no time to be lost, your vote will probably be the...
66-65 at the half way stage.
It's going to go the wire again isn't it? That's what you get when the best of the best face off against each other.
Which one will walk away as the ultimate champion of champions?
In the little I've seen of him he's looked a decent player. He's just unfortunate that we're very well stocked in the position so it's very difficult to get any minutes and without minutes he's never going to reach his potential so as disappointing as it is to see a talented local player leave...
Folks, we're here. At the terminus of WHC. The final of WHC The Champion of Champions.

Up there with Zamora as the best striker we've had in the past 30 years.
Scored the goals that got us out of league one and enabled us to start the Amex Era in the championship and on a positive footing. Then a few 'lost' years before returning to score the goals that got us to and kept us in...
I think we have to don't we? We've got Liverpool on Wednesday followed by Burnley on Saturday, Leicester on the wednesday after then Villa on the Saturday. And this is after 3 games in a week. If we don't do some rotation then we risk injury and tiredness affecting results.
Burnley is a...
He's fast becoming my favourite player. He's such a classy player, who oozes quality and most importantly has an end product. He links up superbly with Trossard, Maupay and Gross and is instrumental in creating our best chances. I particularly like how he'll drop deep and allow Gross to get...
Sanchez 7: Not too much to do but when called upon he made two important saves. Looked solid and assured again.
Webster 7: Defensively solid and one or two good surging runs.
Dunk 7: Solid again.
White 7: Solid. good on the ball.
Veltman 7: Such a solid, consistent performer. It's getting...
