Burnley midfielder Brownhill: Chelsea defeat devastating

Burnley midfielder Josh Brownhill declared himself "devastated" after their 4-1 defeat at home to Chelsea.

The Clarets had the lead through Wilson Odebert before they were steamrolled by the visitors.

Brownhill later said: "Devastated really.

"I thought the first half we were pretty good, obviously got ourselves ahead against a really good team who are always going to cause chances. To go in at 1-1 at half-time you'll take that, fortunate for I think it was an own goal.

"But, second half come out, give away a penalty early on, the momentums with them, they've got some good players and before you know it, we're down 4-1.

It was a disappointing second-half, but I think we've just got to rally round each other. It's been a really tough start, after the international break now I think we've got some very winnable games that inside the dressing room we think we're going to pick up some points from and you know, we'll do that."

On the international break, he added: It's probably come at the right time, obviously we've had a really difficult week this week with Newcastle, Luton and Chelsea, three games in a week and there's nothing better after that than to have a little bit of down time.

"A few of the lads will go away with their internationals and play some games. For the rest of us just got to sort of rest, try and take your mind off football for a week and then get back at it, as like I say, it's an important game that's going to be coming up and I'm sure we'll be ready for that one."
