Sean Dyche hails Burnley performance

Burnley manager Sean Dyche has praised his side's performance in their 2-1 win against Blackpool on Saturday.

Danny Ings put the Clarets ahead, but Craig Cathcart nodded home to level the score. However, with the second half just two minutes old, Scott Arfield curled in the winner.

"I thought we delivered another very good performance. We looked solid defensively, had good energy and we always looked a threat going forward," Dyche told BBC Sport.

"We scored two fantastic goals and showed some excellent quality. It is important to find different ways of winning and then deliver them.

"I am really pleased with the attitude of the side. We hurt Blackpool in a lot of different ways."

The win, coupled with Queens Park Rangers' defeat to Leicester City, means that Burnley are now top of the Championship.
