Friendly on Saturday - Burnley

[Spiritater]

No Andy Cook?

Has Aaron O'Driscoll moved up in the pecking order over Farrend Rawson after Farrend's poor defending last Saturday?

i reckon odriscoll is better than rawson.

quite hard to tell when we've never seen O'Driscoll play a proper game for us. Rawson has shown he's one of the leagues best last season

[Tippy Tappy Football]

It's worrying that we are conceding so many goals. We are averaging 3 per game against first team opposition. I think we need to practice parking the bus

Burton 2 Mansfield 1
Mansfield 0 Peterborough 2
Mansfield 0 Rotherham 3
Preston 4 Mansfield 0
Burnley 4 Mansfield 2

I assume the Burnley keeper, Lukas Jensen, is Brian Jensen's son.

[Martin Shaw]

... in fact, here are the goals

Was the cameraman on a roof in Manchester ?

it's analyst footage, which is always on a very wide angle.

O’Driscoll’s only senior appearances have been in the EFL Trophy. It’s hard to judge at the moment.

Cracking left footed strike from Clarke.

[five to three]

... in fact, here are the goals

Is that a record for the shortest set of highlights ever? I had to restart three times to see the first goal!

[lifestags]

Poor camera quality too

[Captain Cunno]

So we go in 1-1 at HT against a very strong Burnley team before changing to youth and all people wanna comment is how far away the camera is ,how poor it is and how short its on...

Cracking left foot strike by Ollie Clarke for the first goal.

James Clarke easily beaten in the air by Chris Wood for Burnley's second goal and his header was straight at Aidan Stone who should have saved it.

We concede from a corner for Burnley's third goal and I think it is Danny Rose who is marking Chris Wood and loses him for Wood to head in.

Jason Law does not get back and mark Chris Wood for Burnley's fourth goal and Aiden Walker is easily beaten.

Good cross by Danny Rose that forces own goal.

I spoke to Stevo at the club a few weeks' ago and he was still on furlough. He was just popping in to do the new player interviews.

Pretty sure that’s not allowed

It has been since 1st August, but not before.

It was Thomas for Burnley’s third, not Wood Darren.

[Tippy Tappy Football]

Thanks Sam. That camera was just too far away. The cameraman was clearly not focusing on the game properly. He needs to up his game!

I assume the Burnley keeper, Lukas Jensen, is Brian Jensen's son.

But what about the 3 games where we only conceded 1 goal?

[Tippy Tappy Football]

They were games against U23 opposition Sneag.

They were games against U23 opposition Sneag.

So what?

[Tippy Tappy Football]

I said we were averaging 3 goals against "first team opposition" i.e. excluding U23 games.

[tillydog123]

Looks like we are always starting brightly and then fade later but decent workout all round
Great to Ollie get some time

[Sneag]

I said we were averaging 3 goals against "first team opposition" i.e. excluding U23 games.

It's disingenuous to pick & chose which PSFs you want to illustrate a point though.

We've conceded goals agaist teams that are much better than us, no surprise there.

We've conceded 1 in 3 against teams that are weaker than us, also no surprise.

That’ll be Chris Wood who scored double figures in the Premier League last season. I’d be expecting our young lads to struggle against him.

Of course sorry, was caught out thinking it started last month forgetting we'd moved into a new one, if you get my drift.
I should have got it right as I'm on it.

I assume the Burnley keeper, Lukas Jensen, is Brian Jensen's son.

Not according to Wikipedia, Brian's two sons are called Jamie and Sebastian.

[Tippy Tappy Football]

Just thinking "Jensen" and "Burnley" and putting two and two together. So many former players have kids in academies....and they are not always there on merit!

Burnley website says: "20-year old Jensen signed for the Clarets in September 2019, after impressing on trial. The Danish goalkeeper played with Denmark’s second tier side Hellerup IK in the previous season." Also discovered that Jensen is the second most common surname in Denmark after Nielsen and followed by Hansen, Pedersen and Andersen.

.....so clearly no relation to "The Beast"
