Superb game management

At last we are now thinking like a Prem team and using every tactic available.Previous years we have carried on and not gone down etc. UTC.

We, the fans, need to boo every oppo goalie every time they take more than 2 seconds to get rid of a ball. Worked well for Chelsea today. Could do the same at Turf.

Even pundits said we played the game well.

Lots of quotes online accusing us of anti football. Time wasting....cramp...

It’s ugly but if it was one of the big clubs doing it it would go unnoticed.

Its also the side of the game we didn’t do when we were relegated

It's really funny how quickly the fans of the big six throw their toys out of the pram when things don't go the way they expect.

If Chelsea learned how to defend set-pieces,maybe they would hold onto leads for longer.

Luiz is a loose cannon,50 million for him shows how bonkers the market has become.

As for the dive he needs to take lessons from the likes of Zaha and Salah.

It worked out in the end but the more our players went down, the more I was expecting them to score a 98th minute winner.

I really don't understand these moaners, we were away from home, we took the lead, we went 2-1 down we rallied and came back with a second goal we then stopped the mega million 'superstars' with some magnificent defensive play what is there not to admire. On this day when we lost the great Billy McNeil for the the older ones amongst us he captained Celtic against Inter Milan in the final in Lisbon. Inter were odds on favourites and their MO was score early and defend and they won most games 1-0 what a great defence with Facchetti at the heart of it. The football world marvelled at them so whats wrong with our method other than we are Burnley and not a BIG NAME so to have an Italian whinging beggars belief

A brilliant game plan by SD and the boys, its no wonder some of the lads went down with cramp the amount of effort that went in, as for time wasting, Chelsea do more than their fair share of it as do all the big clubs, it just gets noticed when clubs like ours try to waste a few seconds and get criticism from opposing managers, well done lads.
