​Burnley boss Dyche gives credit to Wolves

Burnley manager Sean Dyche has admitted that his side were inferior to Wolves in the Premier League.

The Clarets lost a tight contest 1-0 to Wolves, which is their first start to a top flight season in almost 100 years.

They have only got one point from the first five games of the season, highlighting their plight at the moment.

And Dyche admits that Wolves were the superior side, with the scoreline flattering his team.

"No complaints, Wolves played well," he told Sky Sports.

"They are a good side and we knew we would have to defend resolutely, which to be fair I thought we did - our 'keeper played well.

"We were a bit more like ourselves defensively. It was a poor goal but other than that we got blocks in, were resolute and stayed in the game where we could have got something.

"But attacking wise it was nowhere near enough, not enough quality, guile and energy really. That's got to change.

"We're in a bit of fog at the moment, we collectively have to get our way out of that. We've been here before, we know it changes quickly, but we've got to work to make it change."
