What is the mood around Turf Moor at the moment?
“I think it’s taken a little bit of a knock after the defeat to Leicester. As Sean Dyche will tell you it’s dented but not broken. They’ll keep fighting until the end so we’ll see what happens.”
What do you make of Sean Dyche, regardless of where Burnley finish in the league, do you think he should stay?
“There’s no question he should definitely stay and there’s no chance of sacking him. I think he has done an amazing job with very limited resources to get Burnley up in the first place.
"After the first ten games, to be in a position where they could still survive is impressive. He generates so much positivity and self-belief among the staff and among the players.”
Which of the players have been in good form recently, who should we look out for?
“Danny Ings is due a goal, given the talent he’s got, his run can’t go on forever. George Boyd has been another player who has been noted for his work rate, he is certainly capable of making things happen. Kieran Trippier at right-back likes to get forward and get the ball into the box, he’s proved that he’s capable of playing at this level.”
At this stage of the season, do Burnley have to go for all three points or is an away point still a good result?
“They have to go for three points. The games are running out now and they need to win at least three of their last four games. It’ll be a tall order because they’ve only won five all season. Everything is stacked against them, it has been all season and they’ve pulled off some incredible results against teams they were never expected to get anything from.”
What do you put Burnley’s league position down to, referees decisions, injuries, bad luck?
“It’s a bit of everything really. There have been decisions that have gone against them and they have had some terrible luck with injuries. Dean Marney has been a big miss, that happened just after the transfer window, so that couldn’t have been worse. There wasn’t too much activity in either window but also the general quality of the Premier League is hard to adapt to for any team coming up.”
What is your prediction for Saturday's score?
“The team has to go for a win and it would be remiss of me not to back them. I don’t think they’ll be a vast amount of goals so I’ll say 1-0 Burnley.”
Where you think Burnley will finish?
“I’ll stay positive and say they’ll do it. If Leicester can do it, why not?”
