Burnley boss Scott Parker, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "For an hour we were very good, very disciplined. We got our noses in front and it carried on in to the second half. The game changes on their goal, in that moment we give up two or three sloppy goals and lost our way. The inconsistencies have been paramount at times and you can see that today.

"[After conceding the first] it's not about tactics, it's about digging through the next bit and trying to get a foothold again. We didn't do that, in fact the opposite happened and we concede four. It is poor.

"The team have got scars and I understand that because it has been a long season. What you've seen today has been a replica of other games. You can see at times that is weighting heavy, particularly when we conceded. Senior players need to step up.

"I am never going to criticise our general work ethic and desire. Where we have fallen short is quality. We will keep going.

"It is a difficult period now, but it's about individuals, who you want to be and how you want to see out these last games. How we end this season will be key."

Burnley have lost more than 20 games in a league campaign (21) for the fourth time this century, also doing so in the Premier League in 2009-10 and 2023-24 (24 in both), and in the second tier in 2002-03 (21).

Only Erling Haaland and Igor Thiago (both 9) have scored more away goals in the Premier League this season than Burnley's Zian Flemming, with eight of his nine total goals in the competition coming on the road.

Among all players to score more than five Premier League goals, none have scored a greater proportion of their total in away games than Flemming (89% - 8/9, same as Marc Guehi).
