Fantastic result for the Saddlers tonight with Marcelo’s first goal for the club giving us a vital 3 points. Fans reaction:
Neil Ravenscroft - Great result and, at times, great performance. Back four solid as a rock, Bennett breaking things up in midfield, Simpson likewise (and producing a great corner for the goal), Marcello leading the line superbly (touch and movement total class), Biancalani and the bargain of the season Corica outstanding. The only thing I cant comment on was Wacker (nothing to do) and Wrack, who I thought was a little off and should have made it safe. Still, no complaints! Best of all, the so called big clubs of Barnsley and Sheffield Wednesday right back in the mire!
Paul G - A good result and also a very good performance after the dodgy first 20 minutes. Perhaps good for the crowd to see Don back but putting him in for the last 10-15 minutes seemed to turn the game back to Burnley. We missed Marcelo’s ability to hold the ball up and his aerial presence. But this apart well done to all - even Wrack whose miss tonight would have been a nightmare for a schoolboy.
Sheffield Saddler - Excellent tonight. I thought Corica was brilliant, his overall game tonight was fantastic and he kept going and going. And he even knows how to run the ball into the corner with minutes left and keep it there as well as getting throw after throw in the process. Fully deserved the man of the match award.
