AMAZING: Dyche names 1-11 Burnley line-up at Liverpool - last seen in 1990's!

Burnley boss Sean Dyche named an almost unique 1-11 starting line-up today against Liverpool.

Dyche lined his team up in a traditional 4-4-2 formation, as usual.

And Burnley have become the first Premier League team to line up in numerical order for more than two decades.

Dyche's team of Nick Pope, Matt Lowton, James Tarkowski, Ben Mee, Charlie Taylor, Johann Gudmundsson, Josh Brownhill, Jack Cork, Dwight McNeil, Chris Wood and Ashley Barnes are the first such side in 23 years.

Alan Curbishley's Charlton were the most recent Premier League side to do so, in August 1998.

Curbishley's Addicks lined up with Sasa Ilic, Richard Rufus, Eddie Youds, Chris Powell, Danny Mills, Mark Kinsella, Neil Redfearn, Shaun Newton, John Robinson, Andy Hunt and Clive Mendonca and beat Southampton 5-0, last millennium.
