Burnley signing Josh Cullen says Vincent Kompany will want his team to play possession-based football.

Cullen played for the new Clarets manager at Anderlecht.

"I'm someone who can help us build out from the back and who can help us to play the style of football that the manager wants to – possession based. We want to dominate games and run games from the middle of the pitch," Cullen told the club's website.

"I trust the manager to put together a well-rounded squad here who can go and challenge. In my time at Anderlecht, I was playing the best football of my career under him.

"I love playing the style of play that he plays, and just all round I really enjoyed playing football for him so, of course he was a big factor in the move. It was a new experience for myself to go there and work under someone like the manager with the staff he has with him as well.

"They really put a lot of time, effort and investment into the players as well as the team. They try and develop players so for me, the two years I spent under him were fantastic. I felt like I learnt loads about the game and really developed my personal game as well."
