Sam Allardyce looks so different to Sean Dyche who's standing up and shouting where Allardyce is just sitting and watching his team, who have actually adapted quite well, they actually look fairly comfortable right now.

Burnley are the home team, up against 10 men, yet they have still created very little and in fact you might argue that West Brom have actually created the better chances.

West Brom are going to have to do what they can to get a point today.

If they lose this game they could be in some serious trouble. It would be a great result.

That red card is a crushing blow to West Brom, who have been the better team.

Sam Allardyce is sat back in his seat in the dug out, presumably working out what to say at half-time.

Best West Brom can hope for is a decent set piece situation I think.

Nobody is saying that Matej Vyrda would definitely have scored that chance, but he was denied the chance to try to score, wasn't he?

Hard to argue against that I would have thought. But this is football on twitter.

Paul: 50 odd yards to run and an outfield player is sent off for a handball? Where do you draw the line then if that's a red card? I know goalies get sent off for handling outside area but since when do outfield players get red that far from goal?

Burnley trying to stay patient up against the 10 men but if anything West Brom have had the better of it since the red card. Sean Dyche might need to change things up at half-time.

Christopher: When you're up against it in the bottom three, a red card decision for an accidental hand ball will go against you.

Peter: It’s a bit of a stretch to call that ‘denying a goal scoring opportunity’. It’s Vydra.

Karen: I know Mike Dean gets a bad rep sometimes but that red card decision was completely right - Vydra would have been free otherwise.

You could make that case for a lot of handball decisions, but Semi Ajayi definitely appeared to have time to get his hand out of the way of the ball on that one.

He moved towards it - instinctive?

His (Ajayi's) hand has acted almost involuntarily, it is definitely handball but I feel desperately sorry for him.

I can't see how he would have got out of the way of that one?

Mike Dean had two tough VAR calls in his games recently - and that was another.

Is it a clear and obvious error? And was it a goalscoring opportunity?

Matej Vydra had a long way to run.

That was the fourth red card in the Premier League this season for West Brom, only Arsenal have had more (5).

But it's Semi Ajayi's first red card in the EFL or PL, in his 186th appearance, including playoffs.

It's looking like a tough shift now for West Brom forward Mbaye Diagne. There isn't a man in green and yellow withing shouting distance as the ball is cleared up in his direction.

Sam Allardyce makes the standard move to such a red card - off goes attacker Matt Phillips, on comes defender Dara O'Shea.

That is not a difficult decision to make - but as Mike Dean right now, he's got to be brave to do that. But he has 100% got that one right.

So needless! Matej Vydra would still have had 50-odd yards to run in on goal, there's no guarantee he would have scored, but he was certainly denied the chance to have a go but the hand of Semi Ajayi.

What now Big Sam?

Mike Dean pulls out the red card and West Brom are down to 10!

This has red card written all over it.

They've got to be looking at that - I immediately thought that that was a hand ball! Surely he can't get away with that - it's a clear hand ball.

Burnley 0-0 West Brom

VAR are going to check this. Semi Ajayi stuck out a hand to bat the ball away as Matej Vydra broke away.

Mike Dean is going to the monitor!
