Burnley boss Sean Dyche has been impressed by the Bundesliga's return to action.

The Clarets manager tuned in to Borussia Dortmund's 4-0 win over Schalke last Saturday as the Bundesliga became the first of Europe's major leagues to return to action.

“I watched the Dortmund game. I thought it was good, I enjoyed it," Dyche said.

“The tempo was good, although it started as you'd imagine those games would.

“It had an almost pre-season feel to it; it was a bit slow and methodical. Once a few challenges went in and the tempo of the game changed I was pleasantly surprised.

“I wondered whether it would affect it, and it does of course affect it, but I thought it would affect it more than it did.

“The delivery of performances was good; it's not ideal with that echoey noise, but if it's football over no football then I'll take it. I think that's what most fans are looking for.

“They'll take the scenario that's given to them within this current situation."
