Burnley captain Mee insists no panic over winless start

Burnley captain Ben Mee insists there's no panic over their winless start to the season.

The Clarets meet Norwich City on Saturday.

Mee said: “I think it would play on our minds a bit more if we weren't playing well and we were really struggling and not being able to get going. But it's not been the case. We've actually had some really good performances.

“I don't think the performances were quite there last season (early on), I think we were getting beaten probably deservedly a lot of the time. But this season there's a bit of a change in performances and energy.

“We've been in the situation a lot previously, we don't want to be but we have been. We're experienced as players, we've got the same players that have been here for a long time and have been through these experiences.

“We're usually underdogs going into every game so it's no different for us. We all know ourselves as players where we're at and where we need to be and how we need to move up the table.

“I've got every confidence that we will – we're a good side. We've got a good squad, it feels like the squad's come together well and that improves the feeling round the place."
