It&#8217;s too early to get emotional about it all but there is a total focus. People are calm, together, supporting each other. We can do it as a group.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/30\/16\/78432397-12810451-image-a-52_1701362742740.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Manager Vincent Kompany has insisted Burnley is &#8216;a place where things will turn&#8217; around<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/30\/16\/78432401-12810451-image-a-53_1701362744660.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Burnley have endured a torrid run of form and sit bottom of the table on just four points<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I see behind the scenes a total dedication, the work rate. It gives me the feeling that this is a place where things will turn. But it&#8217;s got to happen on the pitch.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Sheffield United have only picked up one more point than Burnley&#8217;s four so far and head to east Lancashire after a chastening home defeat by Bournemouth.<\/p>\n<p>While Paul Heckingbottom&#8217;s future has been consistently questioned, Kompany&#8217;s job is safe, with celebrity shareholder J.J. Watt saying this week that the Belgian is going nowhere.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It&#8217;s always better than hearing the opposite of that,&#8217; Kompany said. &#8216;The lines of communication are open enough for me to have conversations that are always very transparent.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;The frustration is definitely there. We&#8217;ve all experienced it. The first thing we wanted after West Ham was a game back at Turf Moor as quickly as we could. It can&#8217;t come quick enough.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/30\/16\/78432415-12810451-image-a-54_1701362747098.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Sheffield United are 18th in the table on five points and they will be looking for a huge win\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;The truth is we&#8217;ve done really well in terms of performances but that is not enough. That is the missing link, one that we want to close on Saturday.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Kompany added: &#8216;In this job you get tested in terms of the things you preach. If you preach resilience and mental discipline \u2013 all these things \u2013 then you get confronted with that by runs like this.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Emotionally, after the game, I&#8217;m like everyone else for 24-48 hours. It&#8217;s not great. But in the end you&#8217;re in this job because you love everything that comes with it and you&#8217;ve got to lead.&#8217;<\/p>\n<h3>IT&#8217;S ALL KICKING OFF!\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><span><span>It&#8217;s All Kicking Off is an exciting new podcast from Mail Sport that promises a different take on Premier League football.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>It is available on MailOnline, Mail+, YouTube, Apple Music and Spotify.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/football\/article-12810451\/Vincent-Kompany-insists-Burnley-turn-things-gear-crunch-bottom-table-clash-against-Sheffield-United.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vincent Kompany insists Burnley WILL turn things around as they gear up for crunch bottom-of-the-table clash against Sheffield United The <span class=\"more-text\">&hellip;<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":301005,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 -
