    What a difference a game makes

    Even though we were 1-0 down at half time we played at a much better tempo than the Soton game. We played even better when we got to 4-4-2 with Wood supporting Barnes far better than Jeff Hendrick. From the change at half time we looked more balanced and more dangerous up front, I have to say Ashley Barnes contribution was immense how he did not get man of the match is completely surprising. We must try and kick on now and see where we can finish. Well done to SD for his half time substitution.

    It's like a big weight has been lifted off our shoulders now that safety is guaranteed and mega millions coming in again.. I hope we don't take our eye off the ball in the next game as I would really really really like to get a win at wet Spam,or if not at least a draw ..

    Very happy after that come from behind win. The ball from Lowton to The Bash was De Bruynesque 😃

    Brilliant ball indeed Warminster. Hadn’t realised this was the first time in the Premier League under SD we have come from a goal down to win.

    Ashley was at least Sky sports man of the Match

    Deservedly so. It was interesting to hear Jamie Carragher saying that he would have hated to play against him today, he really was on the top of his game and always puts in a shift.

    .

    to get the win was terrific....but was a good job for us that Everton had a poor second half....and to be fair - our goals came from some truly useless defending - thats the difference....we needed.

    Yes!

    Finally got the 40 points and that ends any lingering doubts.

    Lots of positives today. Esapecially well done to Sean for tweaking it at half time (not so good for Jeff though...)

    Our defence is totally sorted.

    Lennon and JBG playing on the correct sides.

    Barnes was immense...and Wood scored on his return.

    And that ball from Lowton...!

    Watching us play, you would never guess that we hadn't won since early December - we were full of enthusiasm, energy and confidence.

    Well done all round!

    BBC made Lowton MoM
    He played very well too.
    Sky pundits said that ball needs to be replayed all week - it would if it were de Bruyne

    Despite his shortcomings as a top end PL striker are concerned, Barnes is the poster boy for Dyche’s reincarnation of Burnley Football Club, he must be a nightmare to play against. A perfect example of “minimum requirement is maximum effort”.
