History doesn’t repeat itself at Turf Moor
Four years ago when Robbie Blake scored to give Burnley a famous win over Sir Alex Ferguson’s Manchester United, a few eyebrows raised about the side’s performances, but not too long after, it was put aside as a blip. Had Burnley managed to do that again, it wouldn’t have been too much of a surprise considering the form that the Red Devils had come into this fixture in.
Manager Sean Dyche would’ve been disappointed that his side failed to break down a United defense which conceded four goals just a few days ago. Although they had their fair share of chances, the home side were unable to find a way past De Gea and on the one occasion they did, hit the bar.
