4 things Burnley can take from their defeat to Southampton

Tom Heaton shone

But for the Burnley captain, the Clarets could have shipped a lot more goals on the south coast.

The 30-year-old’s early save from former Claret, Charlie Austin, was touching world-class and had shades of Gordon Banks about it, underlining Heaton’s importance to the team.

The Burnley number one is not the most vocal captain in the world, however his performances lead by example and continue to set the standard for his teammates.

If it wasn’t for the undroppable Joe Hart, you’d surmise he would have more caps under his belt.
