You might as well have put Bohemians in there for all the relevance it has.

I find it really interesting how big the financial gap is between two teams in the same league. Stats like that put it into perspective

3.4 and 3.4/1 arent the same thing.

They won the league in 1960 and finished runners up in 61.

Exactly it's a great story burnley being in the Pl they had to beat Leyton Orient last game of season to avoid dropping into the conference in the 80s. Dads a burnley fan the only day i seen him cry.Slowly made there way back through the leagues without any cash injection and got promoted last year despite having to sell Charlie Austin 2 days before the season started.

Spot on. A stat that means absolutely nothing

The stat does mean something...
Man Utd should win at least by 3 goals with the squad they have.

And? That wasnt the argument being made. Its quite clear why Premier League was said and not simply the league. Im sure you know that though but it wont stop ya.


Anyway, to pick up on your other point Burnley seemed to have the nack with those sort of forwards. Plucking Danny Ings and bringing through Jay Rodriguez - really have been a selling club but they really unearth some gems.

yes but the post quoted said premier league

Football was certainly around then, irrelevant to the post quoted but great point nonetheless.

The Premier League didn't exist then if I recall correctly.

What has happened Evans.

TheFullDuck

Evans continuing where he left off at MK dons

MagicIRL

Evans...

Evans continues his mk dons form

Sugarlumps

Cracking start!

Mr.Crinklewood

The Burnley pitch hurts my eyes.

Francie Barrett

United are wide open to be attacked down the wings.

3.4 is 2.4/1.

Liam O

Firmly in facepalm mode already, it's ridiculous, seems like Messi and Ronaldo could be in a team with Thiago Silva and Kompany in defense and United would still be shít with how it's been recently.

TheTownie

Blackett should be banned from playing long balls.

Burnley pressing hard

MagicIRL

Ref seems to be in the way quite a bit.

Great ball di maria

De Gea is far too slow off his line this season.

What you'd expect. At least Utd controlling it a bit better in the last 10 mins.

Lucas Hood

What a ball.

Sergio

Where do you go for the links again lads?

Jaysus Blackett is brutal.

Comparing burnley to bohs was also fairly ridiculous. Villa and forest also have never won the Pl Or CL. Myself I was just making the point it's a good story that a small town club with great history has made it back to the PL with meagre resources. On forwards ye they have had a great success with them recently Jay rod fletcher Austin and now Ings.

Your first time watching United this season yeah? Sweeping statement, makes sense.

TheFullDuck

DeGea has had to be alert a few times now already, his back 3 aren't helping

3.4 with 1 euro on wins you 3.4
3.4 with 5 Euros on wins you 17 Euro

Francie Barrett

United centre backs are clear not comfortable playing from the back. Burnley are seeing this and pressing them high up the pitch and forcing the, to play long balls.

i love di maria!
