Vitinho rounds off easy victory to give Parker a dream start
The Guardian
|August 13, 2024
It has been almost 18 months since Scott Parker last took charge of a match but, on this evidence, the former England midfielder has certainly picked up a few managerial tips.
A clinical display from his Burnley team against a Luton side that is also trying to bounce back from being relegated last season sealed a deserved victory.
Parker's last managerial appointment ended up with him being sacked by Club Brugge after just 12 games in charge and has admitted that a chat with Thomas Tuchel during Bayern Munich's mid-season training camp in Portugal last year helped to reinvigorate him. Stepping into Vincent Kompany's shoes after he joined the German giants at the end of last season is certainly within his capabilities having led Fulham and Bournemouth to promotion from the Championship and he will have been delighted that Burnley's players appear to have bought into his philosophy immediately.

Cunha goal ensures 24-year wait for Leeds goes on
Few of the near 40,000 that flooded the Elland Road terraces would have cared to admit it given the depths at which one of English football's most intense rivalries runs, but it was hard to argue that this was anything but a well-earned point apiece that serves the intentions and ambitions of both Leeds and Manchester United well.
