But after picking up back-to-back points in the Premier League, he believes the mood in the Clarets' camp is now very different than when they were "living it every single day" during their seven-match losing streak.

Parker said: "I thought we were superb today to be honest with you.

"We showed a real endeavour about us, a willingness and I thought we showed quality and I thought we showed we were a team that was trying to go for the win.

"It was fine margins today, and you probably need to take your chances.

"That's a frustration and something we can be critical of, but for large parts, I thought the team were very good.

"We had massive chances. I think Jacob's (Bruun Larsen) is a really big chance and like I said, the fine margins of the Premier League is that you need to be on the right end of that and it's a different story, but that wasn't the case.

"I think the positives come from where this group have been over these last five or six weeks in terms of seven games staring down.
