Burnley winger Dwight McNeil looking forward to restart

Burnley winger Dwight McNeil is looking forward to their restart on Monday.

Monday night's return sees Burnley go to Manchester City for their first game since 7 March.

“They looked like they hadn't been away," McNeil told the club's website.

“They performed really well, keep the ball really well and find pockets all over the pitch and that's what their good at.

“I think we just have to look back on how well we played before lockdown. We were seven unbeaten and on a really good run. We've just to look after ourselves and try and get a result.

“We just have to keep playing the way we play and how we know.

“We know we can mix it up. We saw on Wednesday teams like to drop off, not press as much, so that gives us an opportunity to get on the ball too.

“We know we can play but need to be on our game as well."
