Not so the QPR manager Harry Redknapp and it was Kevin Bond, his assistant, who spoke after a game that saw them lose their unbeaten league record this season.
Bond, whose dad was Burnley manager thirty years ago, said: "Credit to Burnley, they stopped us from playing. They worked extremely hard, but that was no surprise to us, we knew they would.
"I'm disappointed we couldn't play through that. Our handling of the ball throughout the game was not as good as it has been, and with what we had available we should have been able to play through that.
"When we did get on the ball we gave it away. We gave the ball away in a bad area for their first goal, just as we looked like we were getting into the game, which is disappointing, and we were chasing the game for their second and got hit on the counter.
"We had a big chance to go 1-1 when Richard Dunne put the ball over from point blank range. It looked like it came to him at a really awkward height and he just couldn't adjust to get over it."
A delighted Sean Dyche saw his side win a seventh consecutive league game. After the game he said: "People had big question marks about what we were trying to achieve here. The board came out and spoke very truthfully about finances and where we are.
"We are still looking to support the group the best we can, within the finances that are available, but the challenge of football is not to just say you can't do this or that. You can do anything you wish and I have made that clear to the players.
"We have good players in a tight group and it will need support at some point, but we can only do that one step at a time and today was another big step on what we are trying to achieve here.
"I think you have to say that is the best result of our season, given the quality in their ranks, the manager and the resources they have. To come to Turf Moor and for us to give a performance like that to win was terrific and I am so please so many were here to see it.
"I thought we were fantastic from the first whistle to the last. I thought the energy, discipline, application and most of all the quality was excellent, culminating in a great result. They had only conceded four goals before today and were unbeaten, but the way we went about it was excellent.
“What really pleased me was that if they were going to give a reaction in the second half, we dampened that down very quickly and continued working hard to create the chances.”
It was Danny Ings who got the goals this week, an excellent finish to a superb move and then converting a late penalty. The manager added: “I spoke to Danny on Thursday and said he looked like a young man enjoying his training and his performances.
“He said he was and that will do for me. Sometimes it’s simple and he is a young man who is performing like a real man, but credit to all the players. We have spoken to the lads about having a freedom to play, no matter who that is against.
“Expectation comes and goes, but I have never, ever put any confinement on the players. They have a framework, but within that they have immense freedom to express themselves. I believe in them and I trust them to deliver performances and that’s what’s happening at the moment.
“It wasn’t a close game today in the nature of the performance. I thought we were the better team, but you still need to score and sometimes it’s an ugly one that you concede that can cost you.
“It didn’t happen and today our first goal was absolutely fantastic. Even the penalty was a good breakaway and good pressing. We got the penalty and then we could all enjoy the win.”
