SCOTT PARKER FULL OF PRAISE FOR BURNLEY’S RECENT RESURGENCE
Burnley manager Scott Parker is confident as his team prepares to host Arsenal. The Clarets, on a two-game win streak, aim to make Turf Moor a fortress and continue their strong start back in the Premier League.

As Burnley gets ready for their match against Arsenal this weekend, Scott Parker is optimistic about their performance.
This season, the Clarets have assisted in raising the standard for the Championship's promoted teams. They earned a last-minute 3-2 victory against Wolves last weekend to up their point total from four to ten, after defeating fellow Premier League returners Leeds United 2-0 two weeks ago.
Parker wants Turf Moor to be a stronghold, and the Gunners are perhaps the best way to assess its suitability.
With consecutive victories and victories away from home, we have had a great few weeks. Thus, there has been a genuine sense of optimism and excitement in the area. Actually, it has been beneficial for that, and it has helped us get ready for a difficult game that is coming up this weekend.
"It is really pleasing because there are times when the psychological aspect of possibly not getting the results you want can put a lot of strain on particular fixtures." In some competitive games, we did not obtain results, but for whatever reason, we did not receive any points. In other games, it was clear that we needed to go and get a result.
"There has been fierce competition among the three teams that have emerged. There is still a long way to go in this early stage of the season. The defining characteristic will be our consistency, as well as the consistency of numerous teams. We have some really positive early indicators, which are incredibly promising.
"To turn Turf Moor into a fortress is the goal. We needed it to be that way. Over the last 14 months, we have had an outstanding home record. Fans have been involved in our intense competition, and we must make it extremely tough for teams to visit this location."
JUVENTUS CONFIRM KENAN YILDIZ INJURY SETBACK AHEAD OF SPALLETTI’S MANAGERIAL DEBUT.
New Juventus manager Luciano Spalletti's debut is hampered as star attacker Kenan Yildiz joins defender Gleison Bremer on the injury list for the crucial Serie A clash against Cremonese.

When Juventus' new manager made his managerial debut this weekend against Cremonese, we already knew he would be without the club's greatest defence. We learned that Spalletti would also be without the Bianconeri's top attacking player when Juventus left for Cremona on Friday night.
Due to a knee injury that caused him to start on the bench against Lazio in what turned out to be Igor Tudor's final game as manager in Turin, Juventus star attacker Kenan Yildiz was left out of the travelling squad for Saturday night's match against Cremonese, which pits seventh place against eighth place. Yildiz played the entire game and scored from the penalty spot three days later in Juventus' victory over Udinese, which stopped their eight-game losing streak, even though he only participated in the second half at the Stadio Olimpico. Thus, it was hoped that Yildiz's small knee problem, which Tudor claimed was bothering him last week, would be resolved.
It turns out that it isn't, and as a result, Spalletti will not have him available for his debut game as manager of Juventus.
Due to an injury, Lloyd Kelly will also miss Saturday night's game. The same is true for the regular players who missed the match against Udinese in the middle of the week: Arek Milik, Carlo Pinsoglio, Juan Cabal, and Gleison Bremer.
The entire squad list for Juve’s encounter against Cremonese is as follows:
Luciano, welcome to Juventus. Gleison Bremer will not be in your first game. Yildiz will no longer be present in your first game. We wish you luck because, even if you only had one training session with your new team before travelling to Cremona for the weekend, those are two crucial players to not have at your disposal right now as you attempt to turn this around.
The fact that we do not know how Spalletti will line up against Cremonese on Saturday night is the added pleasure in all of this. With little training time after Tudor's dismissal, will he adopt Massimo Brambilla's strategy and stick with the three-man defence? Will he adopt the four-man backline he most frequently used at Napoli? Is it going to be a 4-2-3-1 or a 4-3-3? We simply do not know!
However, we do know that Juventus is a worse team without Yildiz than they are when he plays. The last thing Spalletti needs is for both Bremer and Yildiz, his undisputed top two players on this team, to be sidelined for prolonged periods of time, so let us hope this knee problem does not persist.
ANDONI IRAOLA ADDRESSES PREMIER LEAGUE TITLE QUESTION WITH UNFLINCHING HONESTY PUBLICLY
Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola is refusing to call his 2nd-place team Premier League title contenders, despite an 8-game winning streak. He insists the focus is on points, not a Leicester-style miracle.

Claudio Ranieri's script has been followed by Andoni Iraola, who has stated that his second-place Bournemouth team is not a title contender this season. "Let us speak about goals when March and April arrive," the Basque coach added, as he leads an eight-game winning streak against Manchester City on Sunday.
The story of the Premier League season thus far is the ascent of the south coast team and the downfall of champions Liverpool.
The Cherries have improved since selling four of their back five players, Kepa Arrizabalaga, Dean Huijsen, Illia Zabarnyi, and Milos Kerkez, for £145 million, while the reigning champions spent over £400 million in the transfer market.
Antoine Semenyo has scored six Premier League goals this season, more than anyone else except Erling Haaland (11). Additionally, Bournemouth, which placed eighth the previous season, is playing with the incredible energy and flair of contenders. They might finish second last season with 76 points if they keep up their present pace of two points per game. Can they, however, pull off an even greater shock than the one in 2016?
After playing down his team's chances till the very end, Ranieri's Leicester won the Premier League at odds of 500-1.
However, Iraola responded, "No, I do not think we can," when asked on Halloween if his team, which can hold 11,307 people at Vitality Stadium, could surprise the big boys and win the championship this year.
Not even if they defeat Pep Guardiola's team in the first-ever match at the Etihad Stadium? "No," he responded. "A single outcome will not change our objective. Furthermore, we have no idea where we will end up.
"Last season, when we finished ninth with 56 points, was our best season ever at this club, and that is all I can think of. We must receive 57 points if we wish to demonstrate our superiority. I still think it is really challenging. We now play in the style of City and Villa.
"We will be in eleventh place if we lose two games. We have to do a lot to win a single game. And we can be ambitious as long as we comprehend this. When March and April come around, we can see if we can make it here, and then we can discuss our goals. However, I think it is too early for us right now.
"I want City to win every game," Iraola continued, who oddly lost none of his first nine Premier League games. Every game should be won by Liverpool. Every game, I want Arsenal to win. Those are not our competitors. Since we know that at the conclusion of the season, we will not be playing with those teams because they will be in other fights, and we will be in another fight, I do not want them to lose any points when they play other teams. Instead, I want them to win every game.
Iraoloa is now being fought for by Bournemouth. Even though they may be in second place, he is now the Premier League's best coach. Additionally, the Spaniard, who arrived from Rayo Vallecano in 2023 when his contract ended, will be in high demand both in the Premier League and at home when his contract expires at the end of the current campaign.
Iraoloa stated that a new contract was not discussed during the visit of billionaire US owner Bill Foley for last weekend's victory over Forest.
No fan had ever inquired about winning the title or about extending his contract, which is now a weekly issue at his news conferences, according to the Spaniard.
He grinned and said, "People are quite respectful." Indeed, far more than you! Some people will want me to stay here, while others will prefer that I find another coach. In football, this is a given. Even when we were not winning, I felt like I was being treated really nicely here. I hope that everyone continues to treat me with such kindness.
