Burnley are 19th in the table. They look well out of their depth in the Premier League scoring the fewest goals and conceded the most apart from Sheffield United. What’s even more shocking is Burnley has not won a single home match, a far cry when Turf Moor used to be a fortress under Sean Dyche and even the biggest clubs often struggle there.

What are the owners trying to do? Do they want to stay up or just collect the TV money and be a yo yo club? For goodness sake, even Luton Town is putting more fight as the lowest spenders in the league.

How long before Kompany gets the boot?

    This is Kompany’s team. Sacking him anytime soon would have made hiw whole appointment pointless.

    He’s been given a very long leash to create his project, and it would be completely irresponsible to sack him without seeing it through.

    We weren’t supposed to get promoted last year - even after promotion the club and Kompany have been very public about that:

    “We didn’t expect this. We wanted to experience it one day, but we had a different timing on it.”

    The players we’ve brought in over the last 2 seasons aren’t ready made players, they’re each a project and an investment. You don’t sign someone like Koleosho who played just 5 times for his previous club and expect him to hit the ground running.
