Sean Dyche says Burnley don't have the luxury of completing transfers early in the transfer window.

The Clarets are hoping to add to the signings of Jay Rodriguez and Erik Pieters.

But Dyche says he will have to remain patient until the window closes on August 8.

"This window's been the same as what they always are," the Burnley manager said.

"They're always hard, everyone wants everything that they can get - clubs, players, agents, it's just the same old, same old.

"The only ones who often get it done early are the superpowers.

"They put so much into their players that they get things done early.

"I think we've got two of ours done early which has been helpful because everyone wants their group together as early as they can.

"We've often had to wait until later in the window because we're not always in a position to cherry pick players and pay the money that the clubs want."
