It had fans fearing ahead of their trip to Turf Moor and the season ahead as one said: “Just give Burnley the 3 points.”
Another added: “We can as well start the tears now.”
One fumed: “”This lineup stinks!! What is Erik Teg hag doing?”
Speaking before the game about his injury crisis, Ten Hag said: “Maybe, as you say, Harry Maguire – We will see better after training.
“But Varane will train and we will see. Amrabat, he will train and we will see. Mount, as well, but they all didn’t play for a short or longer term.
“Varane, obviously, was the shortest [time] out.”
