What were the highlights of Burnley's match against Chelsea?
It's Brady.
Oh, it's brilliant. What a strike. Courtois didn't even smell it. Robbie Brady announces himself as a Burnley player in spectacular fashion. Not a bad home debut, was it, for Robbie Brady? The first free kick that Chelsea have conceded to direct for four years in the Premier League. 13 attempts from Chelsea today to Burnley's six, but not many teams restrict Chelsea to just two efforts on target. Burnley running 121 kilometres today, three more than in any other game this season. Chelsea having more possession than in any game this season, 71%. But look at the percentage of long passes, gives you an idea of how Burnley went about it today, 31% long from them to Chelsea's nine. Let's hear from Burnley's goalscorer and man of the match, both with Greg.
Robbie, Michael, very well done. Robbie, a fully deserved point against the league leaders.
Yeah, I thought the lads were excellent today.
How did Robbie Brady perform in his home debut for Burnley?
Just shows what they're about. Their home form they've showed this season has been unbelievable and stuck it out today and a great point in the end.
Michael, was that result today a reward for the way you stuck to the game plan today? I think so, yeah. I think Chelsea came out of the blocks strong. Caught us a bit cold the first five minutes, but we didn't let that affect us. We've got some unbelievable belief at home and we just kept going and put a brilliant free kick in. We know what he's capable of and thankfully he's come up with the goods today. Really strong response from the whole team, wasn't it, to go in behind early? Definitely, yeah. It's what we're all about. We never give in. The manager instils it in us for 90 minutes. No matter what happens, we keep going, and we showed that again. I thought our fans were brilliant today, getting behind us, and that makes a difference.
What tactics did Burnley use to restrict Chelsea's scoring opportunities?
Robbie, that was a textbook free kick. Is that the perfect way to announce yourself, your home debut here?
Yeah, I'm just lucky enough I went in because I didn't have the best of games, but I'm glad I went in and I managed to get us a point in the end, so fantastic.
That free kick, though, went right where you wanted it to go. Is that the result of hours on the training ground, something like that?
That's the game. They don't all go in like that, but lucky enough today they did.
Michael, several key blocks and challenges. How rewarding was that out there from a defensive point of view today? Yeah, I thought we defended really well as a team, kept our shape, and we know we're going to come under pressure at the top of the league for a reason. They've got world-class players, but I thought we dug in well. Like you say, made some big blocks when we had to and some good last-ditch defending, but I thought in general we were reasonably comfortable and we looked to fret going forward, so a fully deserved point. Michael, once again, you've shown just how tough Burnley are to play here. What is the key, do you feel? I think we got a few wins early on and we've just got some momentum at home and the fans get behind us.
How did Burnley players respond to going behind early in the match?
We have that belief now that anyone that comes, no matter what happens, we're going to get something out of the game. And hopefully that continues to the end of the season. Very well done to both of you. Robbie, the Premier League man of the match. Michael, if you did the honours, please.
Well done, guys. Yeah, terrific performance. Chris Coleman, what did you make of that Burnley effort? I think you've got to give huge credit to Sean Dyche because I think, looking at, we were talking, I hear Jamie saying about 4-4-2 and Martin Tyler, they were confident on the game. But it was set up at 4-4-2, it was really 4-4-2 because out of possession, Burnley played with six, which is very clever from Sean Dyche because the two wide guys, Boyd on one side and Brady on the other, tracked the wing-backs. The two full-backs of Burnley were narrow next to the centre-halves. And Barton and Westwood did great jobs of holding in the midfield. And they tried to play on the counter against Chelsea. I remember seeing Chelsea this season.
