Match-winner Jay Rodriguez praised the Clarets’ collective strength on a night he claimed a piece of club history.
Rodriguez’s first-half header secured a 1-0 victory at West Ham which made it 14 Premier League wins for the season – equalling a club record in the Premier League.
The striker also became the first Burnley player to have scored in each month of the year through his double-sided Turf Moor career as he moved to double figures for the season.
But he was quick to share the credit with team-mates giving everything to keep a European dream alive with a 14th clean sheet of the season helping them win for third time since the league’s restart and moving to within two points of seventh place thanks to a remarkable run of just one defeat in 12 league games.
