Decent review, I’d take 14th.

A good article other than recognising the importance of Tom and the glaring gap in cm without D4.

This sums it up:

"It is a delicate balancing act at Turf Moor: remove one key element from the structure and one feels the whole edifice may wobble, but until and unless that actually happens Burnley seem set to keep coming back for more."

Captain Heaton is one such key element, in my view.

We finished 7th the season he was out injured.

Burnley finished 15th last season, which is roughly what most people would have expected and would have represented their highest Premier League placing but for the extraordinary events of the season before
Is this the sort of opening that passes as journalism these days?

Pleased to read this Guardian Review, they are doing the PL alphabetically and so far have not relegated any clubs - Brighton?!

Brighton will go, for me.

New manager, soft team, lack of goals, possibly losing Dunk, terrible last season and no reason to think they won't be again, Murray close to 36.

Norwich, Sheff Utd, Brighton.

If we don’t finish above those, given Dyche is a very experienced Premier League manager now, it would be majorly disappointing.
