    The commentators on Sky were loving Brady. If the co-commentator (not sure who it was) called his left leg a "wand" once more...

    Fair play to him. He been great for the last couple of year. Remember the expression "our problem position"(LB) we havent heard that in awhile and its thanks to Wards improvement as a player

    Wardy is walking with the football Gods now.
    He has made yet another BBC team of the week, selected by ace pundit and football legend Garth Crooks.

    "It was an excellent performance by Stephen Ward at Chelsea.

    The full-back played with a confidence and composure reminiscent of another former Burnley left-back and England international, Keith Newton.

    Ward took his goal brilliantly on Saturday"

    I put my hands up as having said that a few times, and scoured the Championship for up and coming Irish left backs. Ward has proven many ofus wrong, and has put a lot of work into his game these past few years. I recall when he joined Burnley he was not first choice for quite a while, and he now owns his position there. Fair play to him.

    He had a bit of a nightmare away to B&H but has been fairly steady for us otherwise under O'Neill. Would that be a fair enough assessment or am I missing some dodgy performances? Obviously Brady had that spot on occasions as well.

    The way he's turned things around for himself at club level really is remarkable, delighted for him.

    Fair play to him fmbe is having an excellent career. He offers us very little going forward when Brady plays full back he puts good balls into the box and uses the ball well from the back and helps us play which ward just can't do

    Wards positioning and defensive awareness is much better then Brady's. Brady should play on the wing or mid field or not at all

    I always quite like Ward even when he was not flavour of the month not 100% why but awareness and positioning come into it, a proper footballer not a one trick pony.

    He has lost a lot of weight since then too, I think when you are a bit over weight you have you use your brain a bit more.

    No doubt his next game will be a real stinker!!

    Ward limped off before half time last night as a late winner propelled Burnley into the Champions League positions. It was Hendrick's replacement, Ashley Barnes, who scored the vital goal. Kevin Long played the full ninety.

    This was probably all mentioned in the Burnley Irish thread but it's doesn't seem to be opening for some reason?

    Brighton away next for Burnley before a very difficult run of fixtures which feature Tottenham, Manchester Utd, Manchester City and Liverpool in five of their next seven matches. If they're still around the top four after that they can really start to dream!

    returned for Burnley's U23 side last night, hopes to be in the first team this weekend: https://www.burnleyfootballclub.com/...od-and-strong/
    “It felt really good. It’s just important to get back on the pitch and get used to playing,” said Ward after a flawless run-out at the Terriers’ training ground.
    “It’s nice to be feeling good and strong and to get a few minutes out there.
    “It’s not really in my hands but I’m feeling good and ready to go. I’m feeling a lot sharper, so we’ll see what happens.
    “We’ve had a great season and the more bodies we can have back now, hopefully that will help us have a strong finish.”
