Burnley boss Sean Dyche: West Brom sucked us in

Burnley boss Sean Dyche was left disappointed with their thrashing at West Brom.

Dyche said his side need more belief away from home.

"It was not good enough - the first half particularly. The game was done at half-time," said the Clarets boss.

"We just got drunk on keeping the ball and playing in front of them and that is what they want you to do, so they can counter attack. We got sucked into it - even though we had told the players what to expect.

"We have good points on the board but you have to build on what you are doing at home and take that on the road. I think some of that is a mentality thing - to play with more belief.

"We have had two below-par performances on TV - here and at Southampton, we were miles off it.

"I broke my leg here at 17 and I have never had a result here - one of the few grounds in the country where I have had nothing."
