Laws hails Clarets recovery
11 Mar 2010 - 08:51:13
Burnley manager Brian Laws retains belief that his side can escape from the Premier League relegation zone, having seen the Clarets secure a 1-1 draw against Stoke City at Turf Moor.
A second-half David Nugent strike secured a share of the spoils for Laws' men, who are now only inside the bottom three by virtue of goal difference.
Laws, who challenged his side to respond after a poor first 45 minutes, told the club's official website: "I asked them 'do you believe you can win a game in the Premier League?'.
"They all replied 'yes', so we asked them to move up a gear and prove it.
"That means you need to demand the ball and play positive football, looking forwards not backwards. That's what I saw and this could well be the turning point for us now.
"We can say that is the level and standard we want and what we all have to say is well done to the players.
"It's great credit to them for not crumbling. What they did is stand two foot taller and they came in at the end as men."
