Atletico Madrid fullback Trippier: Specific Burnley style good for them

Atletico Madrid fullback Kieran Trippier says Burnley can be proud of the way they maintain their Premier League status.

Atletico have been dubbed the 'Spanish Burnley ' because of the way they beat Liverpool but Trippier couldn't be happier to be compared to his old club.

“Even when I was there, people complained about the way they played, but they get results and that's what football is about," said Trippier

“When you're in the Premier League, you can't expect Burnley to match Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea.

Burnley have a specific way of playing and it works because they get results and it keeps them in the Premier League."
