Craig Bellamy blames Burnley’s struggles on a lack of Premier League experience… but he backs the Clarets young squad to follow in his footsteps and immediately bounce back from relegation

  • Burnley drew 1-1 with Brighton in the Premier League on Sunday

Craig Bellamy recovered from a nightmare first season as a Premier League player to prosper and he is certain Burnley’s inexperienced strugglers can do the same even if they go down.

Relegation looks a certainty after goalkeeper Aro Muric’s horrendous error, allowing a Sander Berge back-pass to roll past him to gift Brighton a point after Josh Brownhill’s opener.

But assistant manager Bellamy suffered relegation with Coventry less than a year after they bought him for £6million in 2000, and recovered to win trophies with Celtic and Liverpool.

‘It was difficult,’ said Bellamy. ‘I was a waste of money. And then the next year I was the PFA Young Player of the Year at Newcastle. So it can change.

‘We have players with inexperience who are going to improve massively. They will be top Premier League players.’
