I see Burnley have 1 player in the team of the season, does it remind you of another team closer.

Curse of brilliance: everyone thinks others are more deserving than the players that have gotten plaudits all season.

With us it is the ‘Curse of being owned by non-white people’.

Burnley's American owner says that keeping Vincent Kompany as manager for the long term is like dating the most beautiful girl in town. You're excited and glad she's going out with you but know she's going to leave you for someone else one day.

Contender for quote of the season.

Congratulations to Vinnie on winning the Championship manager of the year award. It would have been a farce if anyone else had got it.

I know he is Belgium by birth, but he is a Mancunian at heart.

Burnley were back in pre-season conditioning training yesterday.

Upon his return to Burnley's training ground, midfielder Josh Brownhill said: "It feels quick! No, it feels good. Obviously it's nice to come back after having a nice few weeks off. You sort of miss the football, so to be back at it and seeing everyone is good. The weather was hit and miss over Europe! But no, it was nice to have some time off and relax."
