It has been a long, long time since Burnley enjoyed as much of the ball as they did in their 1-0 win over Huddersfield.
The margin of victory may have been slender, but the performance left supporters purring as they look to seal a top flight return at the first time of asking after being relegated last term. Over the years Burnley have earned a reputation, albeit not an entirely respectful one, as a side who are content to give up possession of the ball. Some even labelled them 'long-ball' for the methods employed under Sean Dyche.
The epitome of this came in 2016 when Dyche's newly-promoted side beat Liverpool 2-0 with possession stats of a mere 20 per cent. That was a world away from Friday's win over the Terriers.
