SHEFF UNITED v BURNLEY

TODAY: 3pm REFEREE: Andy Madley 

VINCENT KOMPANY has tried to ease the pressure on his Burnley players in today’s relegation battle with Sheffield United, insisting they have nothing to lose.

Kompany admits the game at Bramall Lane is “must win” for both sides if they are to beat the drop, but he claims the Clarets were written off months ago.

“They’ve been ‘must win’ for a while for us,” said the Burnley boss.
