Nice to see we're starting to get the respect we're due.

Certainly some praise on there from opposing fans. Which is always nice.

This is making me LMAO, but in a good way.

More comments...

[Everton fan]
They were outright the better team in the first half today, it wasn't like they were sat in their box. Missed the second half though in work.

great side, earned every one of those points.
well disciplined, knows what they're good at and what they're not and sticks to the managers tactics.

Burnley got 7 away points throughout the whole of last season (W1 D4 L14), bit of an improvement on their part, fair play

I loved the comment about the Burnley defenders lining up to make a back-up wall on the goal line. I'd never noticed that before tbh and if you see the clip (above), you'll appreciate how automatically they do it.
Great defensive play, superb coaching.

While basking in the warm glow of victory from yesterday with a cup of excellent coffee, those do make entertaining reading.
