Burnley striker Rodriguez on Arsenal stalemate: I should've won it for us!

Burnley striker Jay Rodriguez insists their 0-0 draw with Arsenal was two points dropped.

The Clarets ended a 10-game losing Premier League run against Arsenal and made it seven points from three games with a first home draw for 12 months to climb to 11th in the table.

But Rodriguez felt it could have been even more after he sent a close-range volley against the woodwork and out again with around a quarter of an hour to go.

“That's something that's really annoying me," said the striker.

“I shouldn't have given anyone a chance there. It should have been in the back of the net and to see it come off the bar and not go over the line is gutting.

“I said that if I hadn't hit it as clean and it comes off my ankle or something it goes in. It's disappointing for myself and for the team but we will carry on. It's one of those you back and carry on working at finishing."
