Some might argue that Swansea City could not complain about the penalty which cost them a point at Burnley because Matt Grimes’ arm was in an unnatural position when the ball hit his hand.

Then again, not many players compete for headers with their arms by their side, so where exactly a natural position would be is up for debate.

Wherever you stand in that particular argument, what was not in question was that Swansea were beaten in cruel fashion at Turf Moor.

Not only that, but Luke Williams and his players will have spent the long journey home feeling they had not got what they deserved.

Burnley boss Scott Parker was adamant his side were worthy winners, yet Swansea competed throughout with the Clarets and had big chances to seize control of a contest which was always in the balance.

“We tried to play on the front foot and we tried to win the game,” Williams pointed out.

Not for the first time this season, Swansea could have done with more composure and quality in the final third.

Burnley had opportunities which went begging too, and it would be hard to argue that Swansea should have become the first side to beat Parker’s team on their own ground this season.

But Williams’ side carved out enough decent opportunities to get something on Sunday, regardless of Jay Rodriguez’s last-gasp spot-kick.

Yet for the eighth time in 15 league games this season, Swansea failed to score.

Williams says he is not sure whether an impending change of ownership will have any impact on the club’s transfer plans.

But if the takeover does mean extra money to play with in the transfer market, Williams will surely want it spent on strengthening his attack.
