Looks like whoever said Vitinho and Tella are carrying knocks got it spot on!
It will be interesting to see how we fair without Tella today, especially as there is every chance that he won’t be here come January

Shows how strong our squad is. World Cup player in at right back and Bendon for Tella and still a string bench

It’s refreshing that we have good replacements for the injured players. I wouldn’t mind those two bring in the starting line up although Tella not playing weakens us I think

Shame about the injuries, but still a strong starting XI and plenty of attacking options from the bench if required.

Wondering if JBG will be left (maybe tucked inside), Benson on the right? Our left side would be absolutely tiny with Maatsen and Benson if it’s the other way round.

I really hope he gets on at some stage, it would be a fantastic achievement for him...and Burnley FC.

Getting a BendOn and using string for a bench, keeps them pepped up and ready!

Coventry and West Brom have scored the only 2 goals in the Championship so far.

Lots of Burnley possession but little in the way of clear cut chances so far. Benson just starting to look a little lively.

We’ve been well on top. Some sloppy final third bits. Benson very wasteful (so far).

Boro were built up as a decent team but in reality are very poor.
Their timewasting and our slow approach play has made a painful game.
