Burnley boss Sean Dyche says their young players will have benefited from this preseason.
Dyche has thrown down the gauntlet to his young starlets to continue their learning curve.
The Clarets boss said: "I know about our group, but there is a learning curve for the younger players.
"We are looking to build a squad, of course, and we are actively in the market for a couple of fresh faces, but this is an invaluable experience for them.
"They need to know where they are in the hierarchy of our own club and today we had two halves, with two mixed groups and, for the young players, playing alongside the experienced players, it's really good for them."
