Dyche insists he can work transfer market to Burnley advantage

Burnley boss Sean Dyche insists they can find their level in the Premier League transfer market.

The manager of Burnley can't pit his wits against clubs of such worldwide power.

“We don't judge ourselves in that market. Don't get me wrong, when we play them we will always take on the challenge over 90 minutes.

“We don't judge ourselves against them. You aspire to be like clubs such as City and United – and usually that takes a lot of money. This club just can't afford to get there.

“It is the impossible dream? It's more improbable.

“People told me three years ago that it was impossible for Burnley to get promoted because we had taken the annual wage bill down below £10m.

“But we did it and I don't think it will ever be done again on that kind of budget. We achieved something together which others thought was impossible."
