4 wins on the bounce, but we are a difficult watch. I agree that we should have been out of sight by the hour mark, then after Malen's second we tried to coast to the final whistle and allowed Burnley back into it and against better teams we may very well have been punished. Work is still required to get to somewhere near where we were in the early part of last season.

Just as an aside everybody raves about Rodri and Rice as defensive midfielders and both are excellent in the role, but Kamara isn't far behind them his shielding of our back four is first class he rarely turns in anything other than a 8 out of 10 performance, and I don't think his contribution is recognised by the national media who focus on players from the so called big six, the one area where he could improve is in the goals column but in fairness as a defensive midfielder that isn't really his game.

Not very often we agree LOTM, however you are absolutely bang on. Burnley were a poor side and there for the taking and we should have been out of site before their late goal. How many times have we had squeaky bum for the last quarter of the game, as you said better teams wouldn't have let us of the hook.We definitely need to step our game up and Watkins just isn't helping or pulling his weight. Positives, we are getting our injured players back, Rogers was much improved, Bogarde was excellent and Kamara is absolute class and is so calm on the ball. We have some difficult games ahead and after the next three games we can see if we have improved.
