Burnley, Champions Again! tells the story of the incredible
promotion season that Vincent Kompany inspired and organised at
Burnley FC. At the end of season 2021/22 the club found themselves
relegated and managerless. With players wanting to leave, the club
needing to sell them and fans worried the owners might decide to
desert a sinking ship, the future looked bleak.But the worries were
unfounded. Vincent Kompany was brought in as manager. He spoke of
promotion being a three- or four-year project. As existing players
left in droves, their replacements were drafted in from the
continent – some bought, others joining on loan. But doubts
lingered. The newcomers were unknowns, and some of the departing
players were big names.The change in playing style was immediate
– a transformation – and Burnley fans were wide-eyed with awe
at the stunning possession-based football. The start was slow, but
as the wins and points stacked up Burnley clinched an inconceivable
top-flight return at the end of a magical season.
