    Not seen the game either but I'd guess the lack of DM and LB suited their counter attacking football #justguessing

    But how do you concede 2 goals when the opposition only had 19% possession?!
    I have to watch MOTD tonight for a masterclass

    I laughed my tits off when I saw the possession stat <laugh>

    Saying that though, you should know what it's like to win games without much possession ;)

    See my last post. Obviously counter attacking football but us not having a dedicated DM and a LB that thinks he's a better striker doesn't help. Not to mention both FBs would have been playing as winners anyway.

    With such low possession stats, they must have scored from 2 kick offs <laugh>

    Biscan is quiet today?

    Very true. But that old saying of "it only takes a second to score" was almost literally true in this case. That should give you some clue as to how Burnley managed it <laugh>
