Mee: I've Learned A Lot

Ben Mee has been a tower of strength in lockdown and will again be looking to lead by example when the Clarets make their eagerly awaited return at Manchester City tonight.

Burnley are the last to play since the Premier League’s ‘project restart’ swung into action last Wednesday night.

The Clarets’ comeback at the Etihad Stadium comes 107 days since a 1-1 draw at home to Tottenham Hotspur extended Burnley's unbeaten league run to seven games.

And in that time Mee has been at the forefront of the effort to bring Sean Dyche's squad safely back to work and – as Clarets’ captain – part of the league-wide movement by the players to support those leading the fight against the coronavirus pandemic that put football on the backburner.
