IT SAYS it all about how Burnley and Sheffield United are run that Vincent Kompany was not under a jot of pressure heading into this basement battle.
Compare his rock-solid position to that of Paul Heckingbottom, who has been left dangling by the thinnest of threads.
The difference is Burnley owner Alan Pace and his board have always firmly believed in Kompany's vision, despite their English league record-equalling losing start at Turf Moor.
They know he has transformed the club since the days of Sean Dyche and has built a young and exciting squad.
Skipper Josh Brownhill says the Clarets finally got the rewards their improving displays have deserved as they demolished 10-man Blades to run up their biggest top-fight win since 1970.
