Burnley v Chelsea

Good, old school, well written synopsis of a game.

Lovely.

The whole link is good reading, very level headed posts throughout the blog. Danny Bakers owl brought a chuckle

Excellent piece. Loved the touches map. Shows how advanced Lowton And Ward played.

The graphic for Brady's goal is completely wrong. It was never that straight!!

Good article. It reminded me of something Conte said - that they deserved to win the game.

I'm not really sure how a team who has just 2 chances on goal over the whole match, and not one of them after 6-7 minutes, deserves 3 points.

"It was turning into a fine physical, energetic and committed encounter. Chelsea, who have not lost here since August 1973"

Well except for April 1983.

Well except for April 1983.

And April 1977 through the Ginger Pele - though neither "in the top flight" which is what the article should have said!

There is no football outside the top flight.
