If league tables have been on resilience we might be high | EUROtoday

If league tables have been determined by spirit and resilience, Vincent Kompany believes that Burnley could be high of the Premier League.

Kompany was stuffed with reward for his unfancied staff, for whom James Trafford made 10 saves, because the Clarets left the Amex with a fifth away level of the season in opposition to a much-changed Brighton.

“It’s an elite club in terms of the attitude, the habits, the standards – I’ll put us against anyone,” mentioned the previous Manchester City captain. “There is a tremendous belief in me that this club is going in the right direction and I won’t stop.”

The extra taciturn Roberto De Zerbi bristled at questions on why he had made six adjustments from the aspect that had crushed Brentford in midweek earlier than occurring to say that Brighton “are not a top team yet.”

The Seagulls have been the higher aspect and maybe deserved extra however they’d been laboured for a lot of the primary half as Burnley spent lengthy spells of it with 11 gamers behind the ball.

“There isn’t anyone more than me who believes in my players but we are not a top team yet because a top team won today, won against Sheffield United, won against Fulham and winning the three games we would be at third place in the table. Maybe because the coach of Brighton is not a top coach yet.”

Though Albion had completed the half strongly, Burnley took the lead in opposition to the run of play within the forty fifth minute. Young French winger Wilson Odobert scored his second objective of the season as he reduce in from the fitting and noticed his highly effective shot nick off James Milner and fly into the highest nook. It is now 20 league video games with out a clear sheet for Brighton.
