Getting back to our best. Brilliant defensively, taking our chances and built on forensic organisation.

Absolutely buzzing with that performance. A good January window and we will survive comfortably imo

Another step in the right direction, after the first 25 minutes we never looked like losing that game, grew into it.

Best performance of the season by far. We were comfortably the better team and should have put the game to bed. We were never in any trouble until the penalty, which came out of nothing.

I did worry after the start, but when the clear cut chances aren’t coming you know the tables will turn eventually.

That Burnley's back that doesn’t look like conceding never mind losing at the minute. Our chin has been firmly rebuilt.

Excellent performances all over the pitch, the ‘framework’ we’ve been building back up over the last few matches was really evident tonight.

Very poor start then we got better and better, helped, crucially, by taking a chance.

How deflated did Wolves look when we went ahead, never mind when we went two up. Teams seem to lose belief that they can get back into the game when we go ahead.

We had a bad start but Dyche, like all good football managers, knows that turning a team around starts with getting the defensive side of the game right. Once that's done and you have a sound defensive platform you can then start to work more on creativity. No doubt Allardyce will be following the same order of priorities at West Brom.

Tonight was another step forward and the players should be praised massively for their fitness and intensity...I really enjoyed watching us swarm all over Wolves for 90 minutes. A real Burnley performance and many of our players showed how good they are. I'm buzzing and this lousy Christmas just got a bit better.

It shows how light we were at the start of the season with the injuries wenwere carrying. Now that the squad is back really starting to look like Burnley. It's great to see. UTC.

Shoutout for Lowts who has been fantastic in that back four. Hugely improved performance and now need to keep Wood & Barnes up front and hope they keep scoring.

I was never calling for Barnes to be dropped, but JRod did well when he came in, but credit Dyche for the change back and it paid off. Could easily have been JRod that knocked one in first but strikers thrive off goals and now Barnesy has knicked one first he needs to stay in the side.

With Barnes and Wood on form, it's still great to have JRod and Vydra on the bench as back up.

Couldn't keep the.ball in that first 25 mins. but as you say we then started to get a foothold and played well passing the ball.
