Burnley defender Tarkowski satisfied with Newcastle stalemate

Burnley defender James Tarkowski was satisfied with their 0-0 draw against Newcastle United.

A solid defensive display and a fourth clean sheet in five games – making it a league best 11 for the season – laid solid foundations as Burnley extended their unbeaten run to six.

“We have a job to do and today it was job done," said Tarkowksi following his 100th league start for Burnley.

“A point away from home is always good, especially when you keep a clean sheet, so it's pleasing overall, even though we'd like to play a bit better.

“We had moments today when I felt we played okay, but we are built on defence and today I felt we did that really well and that's 11 clean sheets now."
